Once a gentleman’s lounge, this space in the venerable Brown Palace was remodeled into a seafaring bar that opened eight months after Prohibition ended. The fish-out-of-water nautical theme was inspired by a collection of model clipper ships that the hotel’s then-owner brought home from a trip and his wife suggested should shove off.

Shish Kabob Grill, a modest spot that opened almost a decade ago, is across the street from the State Capitol – and a million miles from Syria. The exterior of the storefront is peppered with bossy signs, but one bite of the hummus, and your tastebuds will override your brain. The hummus is not the […]

Sketch is an exercise in simplicity. There is no kitchen here, no real menu.
