Telegraph

This Washington Park eatery is owner Christopher Sargent’s second restaurant. Like Brazen, Sargent’s initial foray into Denver’s restaurant scene, Telegraph boasts a small, tight menu – dinner tops out at thirteen offerings – with the bulk of the plates on the smaller side. Luckily for diners, Telegraph also echoes the elements that made Brazen so […]

Teller’s Taproom & Kitchen

It’s no secret that Lakewood (and, while we’re at it, Wheat Ridge) is a vast culinary labyrinth of chains and uninspiring independent restaurants that force suburbanites to empty their change in downtown meters. And that’s what inspired Larimer Associates COO Joe Vostrejs, his brothers Steve and Matt, and Rod Wagner, acquisitions and project management partner […]

Temaki Den

Sushi Den and its sister restaurants on South Pearl Street have long been the standard for high-end Japanese dining in Denver, so when group co-founder Toshi Kizaki and chef Kenta Kamo opened a spot inside the Source in RiNo, diners took notice. Now four years into its run, Temaki Den has a deserved reputation for […]

Temple Bakery

Pie mistress Shauna Lott has been baking since she was five years old, giving the goods she whips up for Long I Pie a certain maturity. As for pie, her signature dish, Lott cooks hers in cast iron pans, which gives the crust a unique and delicious caramelized effect. Lucky for pie fans eager to […]

Teocalli Cocina

In 2019, Grant Hopfenspirger, son of the restaurateurs who created the local retro-diner chain Gunther Toody’s, opened Teocalli Cocina in Lafayette. In 2022, he debuted a second location of the Mexican eatery in Olde Town Arvada, in a space that had not been occupied since the closing of Griff’s Hamburgers in 2015. The addition has […]

The Terminal Bar

Long before there was a renovated Union Station, even long before lower downtown was nicknamed LoDo, there was a Terminal Bar in the neighborhood. It was a down-and-dirty workingman’s joint, named for both the nearby Union Station and the long-gone Terminal Annex Post Office. Three happy hours a day — early morning, late afternoon and […]

Tessa Delicatessen

Vince Howard opened Tessa in 2019 and since then, its classic deli offerings of hot and cold sandwiches, salads and sides have become a breakfast and lunch go-to in the neighborhood. Burgers, pasta and specials like Nashville hot chicken sandwiches and tacos up the ante in the evenings at this bright and airy spot.

Thai Basil

At this funky restaurant, the solid Asian fare — always fresh and well cooked — boasts some fun touches, including rice molded into the shape of a fish. With few exceptions, meals are priced for families and frequent dining.

Thai Bistro

Tasty starters and intense curries are the hallmarks of this excellent Thai eatery. The setting is strip-mall casual, but once you’re inside you’ll forget everything but your insatiable desire to eat every chile-laden item in the place. Don’t miss the red jungle curry, but be sure to have a beer handy to cool down your […]

Thai Flavor Restaurant

Surin Thanon, a native of Chiang Mai in northern Thailand, took over Thai Flavor in 2004, preserving the name, the unceremonious, bubble-gum-hued entrance and the sparsely decorated dining room. She breathed life back into the menu, though, bringing her capable touch to such standards as pad Thai and curries, and adding specialties from her home […]

Thai Food Cart

You’ll wait for twenty minutes, maybe thirty, sometimes even forty before it’s finally your turn to step up and order from She Who Won’t Be Rushed, the conversational but don’t-push-me Thai woman who single-handedly commands the sensational Thai Food Cart on the 16th Street Mall. And once you’ve made it to the front of the […]

Thai Garden

Formerly a Thai Basil outlet, Thai Garden is now an independent operation, but it still serves the same sweet-sour chicken, coconut-milk chicken soup, uncomplicated curries and rice mounded into pyramids to curious diners unfamiliar with authentic Thai food. For those with no taste for these introductory versions of the Thai dishes offered here, there are […]

Thai Monkey Club

Some like it hot – and at Thai Monkey Club, you can get your Thai as hot as you want it. Which, if you order it “Thai hot,” is almost as hot as you’d find in Thailand. And nearly everything else about the casual, comfortable Thai Monkey Club is exactly as you’d find it in […]

Thai Pepper II

Thai Pepper is a storefront with just ten tables and a cash register stuck in one of those strip malls that only Aurora can produce, with tiny joints offering Mexican, Thai and Persian fare tucked between the tanning salons and international travel agencies. Thai Pepper’s food is plain, simple and blissfully good — and its […]

Thai Pot Cafe

Thai Pot Cafe got its start in a small space on South Colorado Boulevard and moved into its current large and airy home a few blocks away in 2014. While there’s a lot to love on the menu, it’s the drunken noodles that have become a best seller. There’s always a nice char on the […]
