Silver Creek Diner

Not all diners were manufactured in the ancient diner forges of New Jersey, feature a faux-’50s muscle car theme, or are draped in neon and polished chrome.

Slattery’s Irish Pub

After opening the Irish Snug on East Colfax and McLoughlin’s near LoDo, the McLoughlin brothers opened Slattery’s in the Landmark development in Greenwood Village. The guys clearly know a thing or two about running an Irish pub, and Slattery’s was designed as a public house that one might find on the streets of Dublin’s City […]

Smashburger

Smashburger has all the affectations of a standard QSR operation: counter-ordering and tableside delivery, a fast and easily navigable menu, a simple and easily duplicatable decor. But it also has a far-from-standard burger: the namesake “smashburger,” a half-pound of ground, nicely fatty Angus beef that’s whacked onto the hot steel, producing a flood of meat […]

Snooze

When Snooze first hit the Ballpark neighborhood, it revolutionized breakfast in the Mile High City. The most important meal of the day became one of the most creative meals of the day, with flights of pancakes, re-imagined omelets and Benedicts, and a morning-themed alcoholic beverage list. Snooze nicely filled a niche that Denver hadn’t even […]

When Snooze first hit the Ballpark neighborhood in 2007, it revolutionized breakfast in Denver. The most important meal of the day became one of the most creative meals of the day, with flights of pancakes, re-imagined omelets and Benedicts, and a morning-themed alcoholic beverage list.

Sushi Katsu

The sushi here is excellent, the service friendly and inviting. And the restaurant is justly famed for its all-you-can-eat lunch and dinner, a screaming deal served every day. But the best thing about Sushi Katsu is that it has the feel of a place where it’s easy to become a regular – a sushi bar […]

Sushi Terrace

In an unlikely yet beautiful dining room in a plaza anchored by a King Soopers, Sushi Terrace slices up some excellent raw fish. The rolls are superb, and the soft-shell crab and the calamari tempura are exquisite.
