Reckless Noodle House

This Capitol Hill spot is decked out with fun design details, but it’s the food that will steal your attention. The menu is primarily Vietnamese, though Cambodian, Thai and Chinese influences are evident. Reckless’s libations are also no afterthought – and there are a lot of them to choose from. The drink menu is split […]

Red Ginger

In January 2013, Red Ginger took over the former Sonoda’s space at Sixth and Broadway, where it serves up high-quality Asian fusion cuisine. Red Ginger is an excellent addition to Denver’s Asian-food scene, with a menu that features sushi, hibachi preparations, and yakisoba dishes that are made hot and fresh. If you want to try […]

Retrograde

The crew at this space-themed speakeasy likes to get weird, which often results in the most memorable cocktails in town – some with ingredients like duck fat, soy sauce and caramel miso (it’s all fair game here). But first you’ll have to stride through the Frozen Matter ice cream shop to the walk-in cooler without […]

Revival Denver Public House

Revival Denver Public House debuted in the former Avenue Grill space on East 17th in 2021.

Ritual Social House

Ritual Social House opened in 2019 with a relaxed ambiance and a menu filled with pizza, shared plates, sandwiches, salads, pastas and grains, and desserts. It’s a crowd-pleasing option in the Cheeseman Park neighborhood.

Rodney’s

This dark, subterranean enclave has seen decades of diners come and go in Cherry Creek North. The kitchen cooks up nostalgic American classics for the regulars who fill the plush, high chairs and wooden booths, and the bar mixes stiff cocktails for the regulars who belly up to a bar that still shows the burn […]

Rolls by Chubby Cattle

Where a pizzeria once held down the corner of Broadway and Ellsworth Avenue, one of Denver’s most unusual restaurants has taken over. Chubby Cattle combines traditional Japanese and Chinese fare with high-tech gadgetry to deliver a unique experience in a gorgeous setting. The restaurant added sushi and ramen at the beginning of 2019 and changed […]

Rooster & Moon Coffee Pub

It was a beautiful day in the Golden Triangle neighborhood when Rooster & Moon moved in. This is a coffeehouse that takes care with its beverages, creating lovely designs in the foam as the barista pours milk into the espresso. But coffee isn’t the only drink here; Rooster & Moon also has a full bar. […]
