Still looking like the beautiful place of worship it once was, the Old Stone Church continues to be a mecca for some kind of reverence or another, whether your particular religion be food or wine. The serene, elegant restaurant offers just the kind of joyous occasion that takes the edge off the stresses of the […]
Steakhouse in Denver
Showing 45 - 54 of 54Thirteen miles down-valley from Vail sits the Gashouse, in what was once an actual gas station. The walls are filled with trophy animals, and the waitstaff are dressed like extras from Heidi, but the unfettered fare carries a lower price tag than most of the stuff at the ski resort — and it’s good, too. […]
Commerce City is hardly a restaurant utopia, and Gala Gardens isn’t exactly the first joint that floats into your head when you’re lusting after a brick of beef. But it should be, because the steaks — of which there are several, including a hefty 25-ounce porterhouse, a 22-ounce T-bone, a couple of New York strips […]

New owners have brought a new menu along with a new cleanliness regimen to the former dark, divey Hoffbrau, now renamed 1301 Santa Fe Bar & Grill. The rooftop smoking deck and wooden floor of the dining room got a good scrubbing, and the kitchen and interior underwent several much-needed repairs. The result is a […]
The Buckhorn Exchange is a true old-timey spot. Before Henry “Shorty Scout” Zietz opened the Buckhorn in 1893, he rode with Buffalo Bill; in 1905, he fed President Teddy Roosevelt, then headed off with him to hunt big game. The menu is still loaded with big game – meat that also demands a pretty big […]
Rock Bottom Restaurants steamrolled Denver years ago with its train-inspired microbrewery. But there’s much more here than beer, including a snazzy dining room and a roster of well-executed dishes. There’s nothing innovative about the classic steakhouse menu; you’ll just find red meat in all its variations (strip, sirloin, porterhouse, filet), seared to perfection. Throw in […]
