Aurora in Denver
Showing 133 - 154 of 250What started out as little more than a cottage-industry bakery working out of a tiny Lakewood storefront in 2011 has evolved into an empanada mini-empire, thanks to the recipes and dedication of founder Lorena Cantarovici. In 2014, the chef moved her Argentinean cafe to a sunny corner on South Broadway, expanding her offerings and adding […]
One of the few restaurants around offering both gluten-free cooking and Jain-friendly options, Masalaa raises vegetarian cuisine to such a level that even the most dedicated carnivore will never miss the meat. And you can return again and again without repeating the same meal twice, because the menu is huge, a mishmash of dozens of […]
The name of this transplant from California, where parent restaurant Luscious Dumplings has been steaming, boiling and frying good things for twenty years, tells you nearly everything you need to know. But beyond the pot stickers, soup dumplings and chive pockets, Mason’s Dumpling Shop has a tempting roster of other handmade eats, such as pork-belly […]
Megenagna serves Aurora’s Ethiopian community as well as other nearby residents who appreciate house-baked goods, meats and packaged Ethiopian specialties – along with fresh-made entrees that exude the welcoming aroma of spice blend. Every dish comes with tangy, spongy housemade injera, great for sopping up vegetable stews or wrapping up bites of spicy beef.
Mile High Harley Davidson has three locations: Aurora, Parker, and Concourse B of the Denver International Airport. With the exception of the latter, the stors all offer new and used bikes as well as repair. If you’re looking for gifts, the DIA location is the place to be. It’s filled with all things Harley, from […]
Mondo Market is steadily carving out spots in food halls around town (the Source in 2013, Stanley Marketplace in 2017), bringing them its blend of sit-down dining, high-end takeout and fancy groceries. That old adage about how you should never go food shopping while you’re hungry? Mondo has taken it to heart, saving shoppers from […]
This joint has the best name of any local buffets, as well as the best logo: a creepy, grinning, big-eyed panda with a knife and fork in his hands. Mr. Panda is spotlessly clean and bright, and everything on the multiple buffet tables — which hold more than a hundred items — is piping hot […]
Some Ethiopian restaurants in Denver are intimate and cozy – great for getting to know a cuisine without distraction. Then there’s the Nile, which is so raucous on weekends, you almost feel like you stumbled into a family wedding. But with big sampler platters that arrive as a mosaic of colorful stews atop spongy injera […]
When we recommend a restaurant located in a strip mall in Aurora, we usually think of a bare-bones establishment: A lone employee manning the spartan dining room and running back orders to the single cook, likely speaking a language other than English. Not so for Nom Nom Asian Grill. While it is in an Aurora […]
While its name is a reference to Caddyshack caddy Danny Noonan, this tavern at the Club at Heather Ridge isn’t necessarily themed after the film. Yes, the joint’s house drink is the Danny Noonan, but that’s about as far as it goes. Since Noonan’s is right on the gold course, it has a built-in customer […]
There ain’t no brie on the menu at Old School Burgers. They offer exactly one kind of cheese: gooey and yellow. And the menus list no specialty burgers, no guacamole burgers, no fifty-dollar burgers with kobe and truffles, only the basics: burger, cheeseburger, then doubles and triples (yeah, triples) of both. The name says it […]
