Ali Baba is a Lebanese restaurant, a Persian restaurant, a Mediterranean restaurant with hints of Syrian and Saudi Arabian modernity and haute cuisine. It’s also a mini-chain with locations in Denver, Golden and Boulder, all of which offer the same comfortable, slightly foreign setting, the same attentive service, the same expansive menu. Our favorites include […]
Alive Herbal Medicine seems out of place. Not because it’s situated in the small Sunnyside neighborhood next to a residential area, or because the corrugated tin barn of a building looks like it belongs on a farm and not off a busy interstate in the middle of Denver. What feels out of place is where […]

Jefferson Park is an up-and-coming part of Denver — but has it arrived as a dining destination? Amass was opened in the fall of 2014 by chef-owner Joe Troupe, formerly of Lucky Pie Pizza & Tap House, who took over the space in a new residential development that Corner House had vacated following an eighteen-month […]
Araujo’s occupies a modest storefront across from a Safeway and smack in the middle of the Best Breakfast Burrito Neighborhood; Araujo helped the area win that title with its 99-cent to-go burritos. But Araujo offers so much more: There’s the daily Mexican buffet, filled with the greatest hits of Den-Mex cuisine: good green chile, excellent […]

From its early days as an East Colfax hipster bar to its current configuration of breakfast joint, pizzeria and retro-swank watering hole, Atomic Cowboy/Denver Biscuit Co./Fat Sully’s Pizza has evolved into one of Denver’s most gleefully indulgent stops for wallowing in comfort food and whiling away hours with friends.

When Brasserie Felix closed the doors on its prime piece of real estate on Tennyson, the location was quickly snatched up by Telly Topakas, a veteran restaurateur who also owns a Greek spot in Colorado Springs. Topakas wanted a more upscale restaurant in Denver, and the menu at Axios Estiatorio captures the joy of Greek […]
Back in 1996, when bang! opened in northwest Denver, Highland was far from the hot dining destination it is today. But bang! didn’t just start with a bang; it continues to do a bang-up business almost two decades later, even with a lot more competition in the neighborhood these days. It helps that bang! owns […]
From the outside, the Beer Depot Lounge might look a little sketchy, but this 38th Avenue dive is fairly clean and respectable inside. The friendly joint has its share of locals and regulars, who come for cheap drinks and drink specials, free pool, shuffleboard, live music, karaoke and occasional free bar food.

Part of the trio of bars forming the “Beermuda Triangle” at the corner of 38th and Tennyson, the Berkeley Inn is a neighborhood institution. The joint opened in 1934 and is rumored to have subterranean tunnels made for transporting bootleg alcohol during Prohibition. Regulars band together to help out other regulars in times of need, […]
Serving Wheat Ridge since 2012, Best Colorado Cannabis is located just off I-70 in a quiet industrial neighborhood. With daily specials and discounts for veterans, this dispensary has enough flower, edibles and concentrates to satisfy any palate. Best Colorado Cannabiss typically has around ten-plus strains on hand and gets most of its buds from Green […]
This is the kind of neighborhood joint that everyone ought to have in his neighborhood, a place that’s both casually friendly and aggressively social, that serves both PBR on tap and super-call whiskey, and that offers the menus of both a champion barbecue restaurant and a decent locals-only steakhouse. Carolina pork shoulder, closed-pit Texas brisket, […]
