“We had such a lovely time at Spuntino. The service was excellent and all of the food was delicious. We ordered the Capellini Aglio e Olio and the Lasagna. Both had an Indian spice flavor to them which was great. Ordered the Arancini as well which were very good and they were even kind enough to bring us an order of Focaccia on the house because “it’s just too good to pass up”. They were right! Will definitely be back.”

Temaki Den 3350 Brighton Blvd, Denver Sushi • $$$
3350 Brighton Blvd, Denver

“Sushi is one of my favorite forms of food. I did not expect to have the best sushi I've ever had in Denver. But on a recent stay in RiNo, my wife and I tried out Temaki Den. And the experience was amazing. First, the hostess was phenomenal. Amazing service. Went out of her way to improve our experience. Second, we went with the omakase to try and experience as many things as possible. Third, the nigiri and temaki is amazing. We went to a Michelin Star rated restaurant the night before, and while they was great... this experience was better. There wasn't an item served that wasn't lower than a 8/10. And MOST of the items were 9-10/10. To be honest, it didn't make sense to me. I've watched documentaries about sushi and how important fresh fish is... so how Temaki Den is able to get this quality is beyond my understanding. But it's nothing short of amazing. The ambience is probably the weakest aspect of the restaurant. It's not bad, by any means, but it's not "luxury." The restaurant is located in the middle of a mall-like shopping area. That wasn't a big deal to us, but if you need an "elevated" environment to eat at, this may not be for you. But the service and the food is outstanding and this is probably my favorite spot in Colorado. My thanks to everyone who works here for giving us a fantastic anniversary experience!”

BRUTO 1801 Blake St, Denver Tapas/Small Plates • $$$$
1801 Blake St, Denver

“By far the best restaurant in Denver. From the moment you walk in you're welcomed by an incredibly well trained front of house staff, while the open concept kitchen and intimate atmosphere allow the kitchen staff and Chef Michael to interact with the guests in a completely unpretentious manner, creating an all encompassing experience from start to finish. Each dish is beautifully composed and thoughtful, some may call it 'tweezer' food, but this tweezer food has heart, has soul. It's modern and innovative but taste like comfort, invites you to savor each bite and leaves you wanting for the next. While the food is memorable on it's own, the cocktail and wine pairings are not to be ignored, both options are incredible, and listening to the artists that pick and craft these libations explain their thought process is akin to listening a storyteller around a fire, immersive and brilliant. An absolute experience from start to finish that I'm always honored to be apart of.”

“Divine bartending skills and most importantly personalities! The absolute best fries I ever had, yes I'm talking about french fries here! Must try! Drinks the dirty martini but best part the blue cheese olives made in house. Oysters the West coast Oysters, so full and succulent with a light sweetness definitely worth the cost. I do love that the shucker broke down the protein weight and nutritional components that affirm the cost. That understanding alone is worth a pretty penny. The steaks last but certainly not least we're great. The quality of the meat and the story your able to read prior to making the decision helps your experience as you bite into there perfectly peppered steaks. We had to get another batch of fries of course. They were too good to pass up. Oh! The Japanese Whiskey!!! Excellent pallet enhancer and your breathe in the notes once with mouth closed and secondly with mouth open, then sip to take your pallet on a journey through a divine beverage experience! Can I say more... I actually can but ill let your experience Speak for itself. Thank you!”

“My fiancé and I went to Rioja last night for our anniversary. We made note on our res that we were there to celebrate and the servers were the best! They sent over an unexpected celebratory glass of champagne for the both of us. The service was 10/10, they had wonderful recommendations, kept the table clean from crumbs and dishes etc. Let's start with the drinks- I had the Pisco cocktail which was fun, it's on the sweeter side, if you like a sweet cocktail with mint and grapefruit, this is the drink for you. My partner got the Mediterranean olive oil cocktail - so fun and the presentation was beautiful. The food was unique and inspired. We ordered the set tasting menu, we loved everything we tried. Highly recommend the artichoke tortellini and the venison was cooked to perfection. The restaurant felt high end but not stuffy. Thank you for an awesome date night!!”

One of the best meals we've ever had, deserving of a Michelin star. Wine to start with a delightful plantain amuse bouche. Our dinner consisted of Foccia bread with garlic confit which was marvelous. Followed by grilled artichoke, lamb tart also marvelous, a creamy pasta dish w/fresh grated cheese which was sublime, finished off with semifreddo cannoli for dessert. Plate presentation, attention to detail, service ++++ was outstanding. Tracy was our host and gave us a warm welcome. The wine list is also magnificent. I highly recommend this restaurant.

“Be aware they are now charging a “service charge”. It’s was not noted on the menu nor did the server inform us of the charge. The only reason I found out is I requested a printed receipt. The receipt recommended an additional tip be between 2-7% on top of the charge. Yet when I paid the machine prompted an additional 15 or 18% tip so I tipped 18 even tho our service was bad cuz I use to be a server. The unfortunate part is I didn’t look at the receipt for over a week after I visited. I’m very disappointed that I’m being charged a “service fee” and at no time was it ever brought to my attention that this is a new thing.”

“This was our first experience at a Frasca Hospitality Group restaurant and it was, overall, very pleasant! The food was delicious, service was attentive and fast, and the ambiance was exactly what you’d expect—funky (esp the music, couldn’t stop dancing in my seat lol) but elevated! We ordered 9 dishes: beef tartare, salt beets, scallops, and pork belly to start; I had the roast chicken and my partner ordered the pork loin with the potato pave and rolls as a side; and we finished with the honey cheesecake for dessert. The scallops were far and away our favorite, and my chicken was perfectly cooked and a solid portion size. Everything else was delicious too (but the scallops still won the day) however, my partner’s pork loin seemed overcooked and a bit bland as is, but the stewed apple (sauce?) overpowered anything that it touched… So we’d definitely avoid ordering that again. Also a general comment on the pricing—it’s all pretty high for the portions you get, with dishes average $20+ so our bill (along with a bottle of wine) was over $150/person (albeit, we were comfortably full, not overstuffed, at the end of dinner). My last note will be that the music was a bit too loud at our table, as I think there was a speaker right above us so we were having to yell a bit to hear one another. Altogether, a very positive experience and I’m excited to come back to try more of their extensive wine selection and listen to funky jams again!”

It’s like walking into someone’s home.The staff are absolutely excellent in their field. The host Jen in particular was charming and fluid in her orchestrating our seating. Which by the way was generously offered to us even though we didn’t have reservations, at 6pm on a Friday night (our original plan fell through don’t judge!)Of course last but not least was the fabulous dynamic dishes we were served. We started with a few little bites that packed a flavorful punch; butternut squash and ricotta surrounded in fried golden puff topped with pomegranate seed melted into the mouth exquisitely.We shared the lamb tartare which was uniquely served with the crunchy bit on top of the tartare. Next up we shared a radicchio salad of sorts with grapefruit, meyers lemon, and black olive ash. A total harmony of delight.We continued into our main dishes, which I was trepidatious to choose the vegetarian option of turnip mushroom cakes with lentils, however I adored my dish and enthusiastically preferred it over my companions swordfish.We finished with a sweet note with their chocolate caramel pannacotta. It was a delightful dichotomy of sweet and salt and smooth and crunchy.Treat yourself to their quality service, ingredients, atmosphere and culinary artistry.”

“It is not often that the hype of a place lives up to the claims but Kawa Ni is one such place. You walk into a very vibey space with music, an open kitchen and a gong on the wall that they hit anytime anyone orders a beer with a sake shot. It honestly does a good job of transporting you at least a little bit to somewhere else. The cocktails were well balanced and fun, but not so fun and unique that you have to wonder what the heck they are trying to say is in each one. The menu is all supposed to be shareable, for the best experience I recommend going with a group of 4 or more. We got a smatterings of things from the hamachi, a 10/10 by the way, to the shaved broccoli which had such a unique sauce on it and was perfectly dressed, to the cold soba noodles. I want to give a moment to the peanut sauce on those soba noodles, because my god that sauce is a peanut lovers dream! I want it in a jar to put on every rice dish I eat moving forward! Very few things fell short of delicious expectations! Some things were more standout in flavor than others but nothing was abhorrent or made me turn up my nose. Some items I enjoyed but won't rave about, the matcha tiramisu, it was really good, but the way people rave about it you would expect it to be the kind of delicious that could end a long standing feud between scorned lovers, for me it was a decent dessert, but next time I will try something else. Also, The curry dish, I wanted more pow when it came to flavor. It was good, but curry can be so much more. The menu changes regularly which I love because it means I can have a different experience if I go from season to season. Kawa Ni will absolutely be on my short list when it comes to places I want to take people when they visit.”

Not only was everything we tried ( I'm seriously going to dream about the harissa eggplant fries) but the attention to detail and the fresh flavors were out of this world! Additionally, special attention was paid to our food allergies and It was a huge weight off our shoulders to not have to worry about that! We will definitely be back and I highly recommend it! We had the harissa eggplant fries, the pork cheeks, the Lebanese garlic dip, the spanakopita, the carne paella, and kept everything off with the chocolate torte! phenomenal food and staff!”

Concourse C, 8500 Peña Blvd, Denver

“Root Down was the perfect layover stop for this recent vegan. I was looking for something vegan-ish that was a little heavier than breakfast since I hadn't eaten before my first flight. I Googled "vegan restaurant in the Denver Airport" and found Root Down. The person who greeted me was great giving me all of the possibilities for vegans. She mentioned their plant based burger was made in-house with broccoli and other veggies. That sparked my interest. So I ordered it along with sweet potato fries. Let me just say the burger was absolutely DELICIOUS! Best plant based burger I have ever had... literally. I could tell the ingredients in the burger were fresh. The sweet potato fries were good as well. They were waffled and served in a cute standing dish. My waitress was very nice and attentive. Root Down has lots of seating, even tables for one with space to put your luggage so you can keep an eye on it. While the atmosphere is very interesting and eye catching with decor here and there and great views of the planes outside, Root Down is handicap accessible. Root Down is worth a try if you happen to have a layover in Denver.Vegetarian options: There are a handful of vegetarian options.Wheelchair accessibility: There is a ramp that goes through the restaurant from the entrance.”

“We arrived for a 5:00 dinnerSelected the 'FEED ME' chef's choice menu with wine pairingFirst course paired with a white pinotLittle gem salad, good vinaigrette if a little salty, but it was a good salad.Plum beet jam with toasted bread. The bread was good, well made and tender, too much toasted, charred flavor a little overpowering with the earthiness of the beets. Plums bloomed with the wine which was niceSecond course paired with a trollingerBroccoli with an almond creme sauce, came out warm. Very mild flavors, but not delicateCitrus salad with oranges, grapefruits, fennel and pistachio. Was well put together and the way the flavors layered was pleasant.Third course, paired with an East coast zinfandelCabbage miso hummus was warm but a little salty, hearty tho' good mouth feel, and cabbage was cooked but not mushyBy this time we were pretty full, we put it in a Togo, that we brought with us.Pesto style arugula, beans and breadcrumbs and rigati hearty and delicious. The other dish really paled in comparison to this oneFor dessert they brought us a single slice of apple cake. Good cream (non-dairy, with almond milk), meh cake, buuuut.... Get it with the coffee and it's much better.Paired with a sweet vermouth drink, chocolate bitters, very excellent.Though we wanted the Panna cotta and tiramisu. We ended up ordering them anyway. Vegan, both of them. The Panna cotta is like a coconut yogurt with tart strawberry rhubarb topping, recommended the tiramisu instead.A good way to describe this restaurant is fresh and wholesome, hearty, and satisfying.”

We decided to order a vegetarian and a meat combo. As a group of eight we were barely able to finish the food. It was excellent food and an adventure to eat it. Not knowing exactly what each dish was didn't detract from how good the food was. We felt welcomed and looked after, even after we stayed beyond closing time. Overall this was a great experience and I'd highly recommend trying this restaurant.”
