This summer saw a record number of eateries opening in metro Denver -- but many restaurants also celebrated big anniversaries, including
New York Deli News (25th anniversary),
Briarwood Inn (35th anniversary) and
Wazee Supper Club (40th anniversary). And all of those are relative newcomers compared to
Saucy Noodle Ristorante, which turned fifty in August, and
Patsy's, which passed ninety in 2011. In celebration of these longtime survivors, we published a list of a
dozen restaurant that have passed fifty -- and are still in the same family's hands.

Says cowtown:
Everyone likes nostalgia and kitsch, but unfortunately, the food in all of these places sucks.
But wait -- maybe it's Cafe Society that sucks! Because then there's this from heykyleinsf:
Are you covering the Denver scene or the corporate chain scene? What a sad, sell-out disgrace you've become, Westword. Shameful
Hmm. Perhaps he missed the fact that everything on our list of old-time restaurants was in the founding family's hands -- not Walmart's. What are your favorite, family-owned spot? Old or new?
