Tapas are amazing... they don't take reservations though. Show up, put your name on the list, and then walk to the Denver Central Market and checkout the murals on the way.

Drinks & Nightlife

This is a cool space where restaurants can get their start - it hosts multiple food entreprenuers who are somewhere between the 'food truck' and 'brick & mortar' restaurant stage. You'll find a dozen food options and 3 different bars alone within the space. Great spot and terrific views of downtown Denver from the second floor.

This great bar always has dancing and usually has live music. It used to be a brothel in the old west days of Denver and the decor keeps the vibe alive.
