Mangia! Indulge Your Love of Italian in Denver
"Yearly visits to Italy inspire the cuisine, wine list and the pace as well as the ambience," says the management here. The cuisine--contemporary northern Italian rooted in the regions of Piedmont, Tuscany and the Veneto--is complemented by a deep wine list that is heavily Italian but also includes bottles from France, Spain, South America, California and other highly regarded wine-producing regions of the world. While much of the menu is seasonal, there are likely to be examples of thoughtful pairings of U.S. and Italian preparation and ingredients, such as aged prosciutto di parma or slow-poached baby octopus served with Rocky Ford cantaloupe."

"Located in swanky Cherry Creek, this longtime Northern Italian destination stands as a bastion of refinement on Denver’s ultra-casual scene; you'll begin feeling indulged just walking in. White cloths on the tables, check. A smattering of elaborate floral arrangements and colorful vintage liquor posters, check."

Best Denver Steakhouses: Try these restaurants where steak is king
"This is the first outpost of the popular New York eatery of the same name, which drew its inspiration from the traditional butcher guilds of Italy that oversaw quality of meats. It fulfills its steakhouse creds with a menu that includes classic filet mignon, New York Strip and bone-in rib steak. There's also fresh pasta with Porterhouse and baked lasagna with filet meatballs."

"The fact that this fast-casual pie parlor was founded by the guys behind Frasca Food & Wine makes its price point all the more surprising: From the famous Mais with ham, corn, and crème fraîche to the Supreme with pepperoni, sausage, onions, and peppers, not one 11-inch option cracks the $10 mark, and on Mondays, Margherita pizzas go for $5. (Three other locations in the Highlands, Central Park, and Hale spread the wealth.)"

Where to Find Denver’s Best Italian Food
"This Speer neighborhood restaurant may be more than halfway into its fourth decade, but based on the 30-minute-plus wait you’re likely to face on any given night, it’s got another four in it (not to mention a new-ish sibling in Littleton, attached to Carboy winery, that opened in 2016). A maze-like floor plan and stained-glass windows give it a charming, well-worn quality, while the menu marries a classic oyster bar with a neighborhood Italian joint. Once you’ve had your fill of bivalves—raw on the half-shell or char-grilled and topped with garlic, butter, and Pecorino cheese (among other options)—you can move onto pizzas and pastas, all of which are made from scratch daily."

"Lakewood’s almost-three-decade-old Cafe Jordano has just the right amount of old-school charm. The recently expanded and revamped dining room—located next door to the original location in an unassuming strip mall—is warm and romantic, the wine list is incredibly affordable, and the warm bread is free-flowing. Napoli-born Elisa Heitman’s moreish recipes have cultivated a devoted following over the years; regulars are known to line up outside before dinner service to snag seats."

The Best Chinese Restaurants in Denver in 2021
"Ask your server for advice at Sunflower Asian Kitchen, and she may steer you rather forcefully toward the Sichuan specialties, especially if you indicate that you like spice. Heed her nudging: This strip-mall restaurant offers regional specialties from across China, but it’s deft at balancing tingling Sichuan peppercorns and hot chiles in dishes like the Sichuan-style boiled fish, in which hunks of white fish swim in a trough of angry-looking broth liberally flooded with chili oil. Consider starting your meal with the tea-smoked eel, a Sichuan specialty that comprises fish marinated in, and then smoked with, tea and sugar; or chilled Nanjing salted duck, a marvel of smooth texture and deep, meaty flavor."

"Like several of the places on this list, this gem in the suburban rough offers two different menus. One’s got orange chicken, lo mein, and beef with broccoli; the other boasts the likes of tea-smoked eel, sprightly jellyfish salad with the springy texture of noodles, braised pork meatballs so big they come one per order, juicy and ultra-tender Nanjing salt duck, Sichuan-style dry-fried green beans, and even ginger-date-papaya soup for dessert."

"Four Mile Historic Park tells the story of Denver's oldest standing structure and the 12 acres around it. Four Mile House (now Four Mile House Museum) was built in 1859. In 1860, a widow and her two teenage children opened it as a stage stop for weary travelers who could wash up and have a home-cooked meal or spend the night before traveling the last four miles into Denver."
