The name seems odd, but you won’t get burned when you eat at Charcoal. The restaurant, which Gary Sumihiro opened in September 2011, takes its moniker from the charcoal-powered, custom-designed bincho grill, an Asian innovation that creates intense heat. And chef Patrik Landberg, a native of Sweden, uses that grill to good effect in many […]
Sometimes Colfax Avenue is so idiosyncratic that it risks becoming a caricature of itself. For evidence, look no further than Charlie’s, Colfax’s big, gay cowboy bar. Gaze upon the cowboy-boot disco ball that spins and glistens from the ceiling. Don’t miss the translucent machine that blows money (or whatever else) around as dancers – also […]

The first Colorado outpost of this stoner-themed sandwich chain opened on Boulder’s University Hill, where, not surprisingly, it caters to the college set. But while the names of the toasted sandwiches might seem a little silly — Panama Red and Acapulco Gold, for example — the food is pretty tasty. Along with unique sandwich combos […]

Neighbors have been strolling to Chef Zorba’s since 1979. Owner Karen LuKanic bought the spot in 2018, and she kept many of Zorba’s traditional dishes. Among […]

The waits can be very long at the Cherry Creek Grill, part of the Hillstone family of restaurants. The corporate ownership is reflected in the absolute consistency of the offerings here — salads, sandwiches, steaks — served up perfectly every time. The open dining room is convivial, and you’re sure to see at least three […]
Over nearly eight decades, the Cherry Cricket has morphed from smoky bar into burger institution, even as Cherry Creek has gentrified around it. The Cricket is beloved by chefs, musicians, Creekers, night creatures and neighbors for its smoky, char-grilled patties and the lengthy list of toppings with which you can personalize them, from sauerkraut to […]
Over its almost eight decades, the Cherry Cricket has morphed from smoky bar to burger institution, consuming adjacent Cherry Creek storefronts along the way. And in 2018, the local legend finally outgrew its birthplace and expanded by opening a second outpost in the Ballpark neighborhood. Luckily, the burgers didn’t suffer in the move; the smoky, […]

The Cherry Tomato is a comfortable place with cracked-tile floors and rough brick walls, a bar crowded with locals and a young, eager staff. The cooks work in an open foxhole of a kitchen, preparing a menu that’s simple and ageless: homemade minestrone, caprese salad, pasta marinara, amatriciana and Alfredo, two kinds of lasagna, and […]
“Lots of French butter” and “a kickass burger you’ll have to eat with a knife and fork”: That’s what celebrity chef Ludo Lefebrve promised would appear at his first restaurant outside Southern California. And Chez Maggy, which opened inside the Thompson Denver hotel in February 2022, has delivered. The butter is so fancy that it […]
