Tommy’s Thai

Tommy’s Thai straddles the border between real Thai cuisine and what those who’ve never had the real thing expect it to be. As a result, some of the offerings can come off tame by traditionalists’ standards – but that just means the kitchen has the freedom to experiment more. The dumplings, the curries and the […]

Tony’s Market

Torchy’s Tacos

This Texas import opened its first Colorado location in February 2016, and opinions about it grew as quickly as the lines out the door.

TRVE Brewing opened in June 2012 in a long, skinny space on Broadway that was formerly home to an art gallery.

Uber Sausage got its start as a food truck that slung sausages, then graduated to a tiny space on East Colfax Avenue in 2011. The spot may be small, but the homemade sausages are big, and big on flavor. “We did the truck first, but I knew that I wanted to do a gourmet sausage-sandwich […]

Uncle

The Wash Park outpost of Highland ramen shop Uncle opened in 2019. Here, owner Tommy Lee offers a slightly expanded menu that only ups the appeal of his less traditional approach to the time-honored Japanese noodle soup. The intensely complex and tasty broths are a base for a nest of noodles and other delicious accoutrements. […]
