Denver doesn’t do weird – at least not when it comes to restaurants (Casa Bonita is the exception that proves the rule). So fans of offbeat dining should head to this Lakewood sushi bar, which is a wonderland of weird decor: miniature fairy gardens populated with tiny cartoon animals; plush, smiling nigiri; colorful balloons randomly […]
Freshness and balance are the keys to great Thai cuisine, and this Lakewood kitchen, which opened in 2019, serves up both, whether in seasonal salads, rich curries and soups (don’t miss the incendiary khao soi) or enlivened classics, from the floating market noodle soup to the sublimely porky hang le curry. Everything is made from […]

They don’t make them like they used to – but Lechuga’s marches on anyway, an old-school Italian joint where you can order pasta by the bucket and square pizzas (with green-chile strips, like a true Denverite!). This second, (much) newer outpost is located in Lakewood, though the original Lechuga’s is one of the last red-sauce […]
Troy Guard made the 2400 block of Larimer Street the taco the town with Los Chingones, a stylish taqueria he opened there at the end of 2013, ten blocks and a world away from his flagship restaurant, TAG.
