One of our favorite places to eat. I was very saddened to see it close due to Covid. I hope they replace it with something great!

My first time eating here was 5 years ago. However, this place (The Source) has developed quite a bit since then. Acorn has consistently been delivering excellent food and diversifying their menu items. Great date spot or a place to bring your parents when they come to town!

Acorn is a farm to table, New American restaurant making good use of its wood-fired oven. The chef is brilliantly innovative—delivering soul-comforting standards in thrilling new iterations. Served for sharing, both small plate and large plate options come from a tightly edited menu covering all the bases and providing something for every taste.

First and foremost - we love Acorn's amazing food and atmosphere. But we have been especially impressed with The management team at Acorn. My fiancé and I have had many changes to our wedding, and we had planned on having our rehearsal dinner at Acorn. They have been more than supportive and flexible. We ultimately had to cancel our rehearsal dinner and Acorn was so great to work with and really helped make such a challenging time as easy as they could for us. Thank you Acorn!

We had an incredible meal and experience at Acorn. We had the Broccolini, Summer Salad, Raviolis and the Whole Roasted Chicken - it was all amazing. Highly recommend!

Overall everything was phenomenal. Try their baked chicken and you will just kick yourself wondering how they could have made the chicken so soft, juicy, and tender. The accompanying Rosemary mashed potatoes may require an additional a la carte. Haven't included drink on my order, can't say anything about it.

Acorn is an absolute gem of a restaurant hidden in the RiNo District! Yesterday was my birthday so my partner and I decided to try and find a table somewhere in LoHi which ended up in us getting rained on and finding that all of the restaurants were booked up with reservations. I decided to call Acorn and they actually had some tables open inside and held one for my partner and I at the last second which I was soo so grateful for! The restaurant is nestled in the industrial area of RiNo in a hip Hotel/Market Hall collective space called 'The Source' filled with some small shops showcasing locally made items and jewelry and other eateries. The simple family style menu at Acorn was brought up on your phone through a QR code given to you on a small piece of paper which I thought was such an innovative way to cut down on germ transaction. The wagyu tartare and the kale apple salad were fresh and delicious and the cocktails were life changing! I wanted to try their donut that I saw on their yelp page which they didn't have anymore so keep in mind that the menu does change up. If you want to do something fun and fancy surrounded by a hip urban industrial design atmosphere, I would definitely recommend giving Acorn a try.

Roasted chicken was amazing, pork rinds were pretty good, martini was okay.
To die for. I come here every time I visit Denver and sometimes multiple times. The fried chicken sandwich is delectable and the wood fire smoked burger is mouth watering. Great wine and cocktail list and fun atmosphere and servers. This is definitely one of my favorite places to eat not just in Denver but in the USA.

The service was fantastic and everyone from the manager (maybe owner?) to the server was constantly checking on us to make sure our dinner was going well but not to the point of annoying. I loved every thing we order and the mix of flavors in every dish. Love the pork rinds and the fondue they paired it with. My duck confit with the sweet, the bitter/salty of the arugula was brilliant. Loved the atmosphere and all the fresh air coming in from the open bay doors. If I could give 6 stars, I would. Glad you are open again for dine in. Well done.

Eating at Acorn - Denver helps one understand what it means to eat food on a whole different level. It was such a great experience and meal of ours. Our first time here was exceptional and there was nothing to complain about. This was not just a good restaurant, this restaurant was Incredible! My friends and I were thrilled with the experience, it was most definitely worth the price. An American place that serves a great and high quality of food at a reasonable value. The space was gorgeous, the atmosphere was very relaxing, and the entire place was so pleasing for dining. Lots of food offers that really fitted on our preferences. The best and fulfilling. When it comes to a service matter, it was on point and everyone seems to enjoy what they were doing. Very enthusiastic and active in what they were doing. Every issue was addressed and that makes our dining experience here extra special. Until next time. Keep safe everyone!

Food is good, but you don't get a lot of it. If you're hungry, and don't want to spend an obscene amount of money, don't come here. If you're not that hungry, and you just want to split small plates and pay a pretty penny for the experience, then this is the place for you. - Also, you pay a lot, but then don't get your parking validated, so that's a bummer. Especially after dropping that $$ ...

Patronized for a business lunch meeting with 3 people in total. We don't have any reservation but still promptly seated with the guidance of their truly accommodating staff. The food, service, and ambiance were stellar. All of us raved about our meals. Creative, inventive flavorful and generous in portion! Delish! I would definitely recommend it. Beautiful atmosphere and a large menu to choose from. A great dining experience that you will surely enjoy and gratified. You won't go wrong what you had here, everything on the menu was the best and highly recommended. It is certainly a place to keep going back to.
