Heading up Federal Boulevard, you might drive past the demure entrance to Chili Verde, an elegant (for this neighborhood) but still relaxing Pueblan eatery. But once you make your way inside, you’ll find more on the menu than the tacos and Colorado-style, starch-thickened green chile so popular on this stretch. Exposed-brick walls and an espresso-dark […]
China Jade occupies a little space in a forgettable east Aurora strip mall, surrounded by French bakeries, barbecue restaurants, Eastern European groceries, nail salons and coffee shops. From the outside, it isn’t much to look at. Inside, it’s small, with ten tables, a register, a Buddha here, a good luck cat there, and one of […]
Don’t mistake the China Jade on the south side of the Far East Center with the China Jade in Aurora. This smallish version of the standard dim sum hall lacks the point-and-serve push carts, opting instead for sushi-style menus so that guests can check off their favorites in Chinese, English or Vietnamese. (A standard menu […]
Denver is the fast-casual restaurant capital of the country, and it has Chipotle to thank for that honor. Steve Ells launched his burrito chain in a former Dolly Madison ice cream parlor back in 1992, marrying high-end culinary technique with Mexican flavor and counter service. It’s now commonplace to move down a line and assemble […]
Known for its clean, minimalist atmosphere and hefty foil-wrapped burritos the size (and weight) of a small infant, Chipotle pioneered the fast-casual, assembly line Mexican food genre that’s since grown to encompass chains like Qdoba and Baja Fresh. The protocol in Denver / Boulder and elsewhere? Diners proceed single-file down the line and orchestrate the […]

There’s nothing fancy about this fast-casual joint in the southern suburbs, but that’s exactly the point. Chef/owner Afred Rojas has compiled an edible encyclopedia of street food from Latin America, going from Mexico to Argentina, with stops in Peru, Colombia, Cuba and Venezuela along the way. Sample empanadas from two countries, dig into hefty tortas, […]
Chef Lon Symensma moved to Denver from New York City to unveil ChoLon in 2010. It wasn’t long before every soul in town had tried – and swooned over – Symensma’s French onion soup dumplings and kaya toast with coconut jam and egg cloud. ChoLon gave Denver something new: a menu that balanced the exotic […]
While living in Australia, restaurateur Adam Schlegel learned that Aussies and Americans have at least one thing in common: the love of a good barbecue. Schegel, who co-founded Snooze with his brother, John, more than a decade ago, came back to the U.S. with a profound appreciation for “chook,” spit-roasted chicken cooked over charcoal and […]
The original Chop Shop Casual Urban Eatery opened in 2014 on a revitalizing stretch of East Colfax Avenue and immediately earned our affections as well as our Best Fast-Casual Restaurant award for 2015. Like its older sibling, this Lowry outpost is not your normal fast-casual joint – at least not if your definition of fast-casual […]
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 […]
