Where to go to eat while in Denver

Started the winter break week at the City park Grill – a stop that never disappoints. the view alone is worth the visit, with city park stretching out and the Denver skyline framed beyond. it is the place that makes one slow down during the holidays, linger over coffee. The breakfast is always solid , familiar in the best way, and consistently well done.

Christmas Eve is traditionally spent dining at the Capitol Grille, where the gift of hospitality exceeds expectations – from the moment one steps through the entrance to the final moments of the dining experience. there is an ease and polish to the evening: Your table awaits, and your soon settled in, welcomed return guest

The menu delivers on celebration. Today – Lobster Crab Cakes arrive rich and delicate followed Filet Mignonettes with bearnaise, perfectly prepared and unmistakably indulgent. It is the meal that marks the holiday with intention. Perfect Gift.

One familiar place we return to when celebrating the New year in Denver is Ace Eat and Serve on 17th street. Its a spot that is energetic and comforting – perfect for making a fresh start.

We have dined in the New Year Eve over a menu that delivered on every level: Steaming bowls of spicy pork Ramen, a rich and savory marinated beef lo mien, and crispy beef and broccoli that balanced crunch and flavor. the table bussed with warmth as we sat in the setting of a winter snow globe …and shared dishes that make a celebration linger a bit longer.

The Thirsty Lion Restaurant is the logical place for down town New year’s breakfast. The usual local choices have a wait list for over an hour. the Lion bustled with excitement – but welcoming-paired with great food and attentive, perfectly timed service.

Sitting out front of Denver Union Station, the view offered its own kind of entertainment. The Plaza was alive as oversized See-Saws rocked back and forth, adding a playful energy to the morning and reminding you that the city was fully awake and celebrating the start of the New year.
