Hands down best sushi restaurant in town. I’ve been going to sushi Den since I moved to Denver in 2002. Amazing ambiance and great service. A little far from downtown but so worth the trip.

American contemporary with what I would call French flair. The roared chicken and porch chop are delicious. Shrimp and grits appetizer is a must. One of our favorite date night restaurants.

Simple Mexican breakfast. I’ve been going to this place since 2002 and keep ordering the same thing “special breakfast” + horchata. It comes with ham, bacon, potatoes, Spanish rice and refried beans. Female owned and all female staff. With all the new people moving to Denver this spot is getting crowded, be ready to wait in line.
