Barolo Grill

Wed, 17 Sep 2014 01:37:16 -0600

Since 1992, Barolo Grill has served upscale Northern Italian fare in Cherry Creek with charm and sophistication – and a generous amount of vintage wine. Ryan Fletter, who worked there for nearly as long as it’s been open, took over from Blair Taylor as owner in 2015 and quickly installed executive chef Darrel Truett in […]

Blue Island Oyster Bar

Sun, 25 Jan 2015 19:36:38 -0700

The interior of Blue Island Oyster Bar captures the feel of a New England seafood house, albeit with Cherry Creek influences. Weathered chairs and barstools contrast with a sleek and clean-lined oyster bar, while dim architectural light fixtures shed a rippling, underwater glow on mural-sized maps and photos. The menu toes the same line, with […]

Cherry Creek Grill

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 […]

The Cherry Cricket

Wed, 17 Sep 2014 01:35:46 -0600

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 […]

Chopper’s Sports Grill

Wed, 17 Sep 2014 02:21:49 -0600

Named for Bob “Chopper” Travaglini, the late beloved Denver Nuggets trainer, Chopper’s is a holdout from the Cherry Creek neighborhood’s less tony times. Sports memorabilia and TVs hang in every nook and cranny – bathrooms included – and the grub keeps sports fans fed with bites slightly above standard bar fare. The Tavern Hospitality Group […]

Cucina Colore

Wed, 17 Sep 2014 01:37:33 -0600

Cucina Colore has had an enviable run. As other restaurants in Cherry Creek North have come and gone, this beloved Italian bistro, with its big windows and landscaped patios, has quietly done its thing for nearly thirty years. Founded by Venanzio Momo, who once owned a coterie of Colore-branded outfits, the restaurant fits its well-heeled […]

Curtis Park Delicatessen

Curtis Park Deli has a small but thoughtful selection of classic deli sandwiches, and it ups the game with the freshest ingredients and loving touches such as housemade aiolis, the best cheeses and light but chewy ciabatta rolls. These aren’t gut-busters, but rather the perfect size for a lunch break – which is why both […]

When Culinary Creative, the restaurant group behind Bar Dough, Ash’kara and Señor Bear, among others, put its power behind a sumptuous Cherry Creek cocktail bar that opened in March 2021, expectations were high. And they’ve only been exceeded. Forget Me Not, with its lively patio, is a stunner in the summer and offers fun, balanced […]
