My Guidebook for Denver
Food Scene
Whenever anyone asks me what new restaurant they have to visit while in Denver — or what restaurant is perfect for a date — these days, I say El Five. The views of Denver are just incomparable, the service is always top notch, and the Mediterranean-inspired food and drinks are creative and mouthwatering. So I was so excited when I found out that they have recently started doing brunch! Yes, it’s not cheap — and El Five is generally not cheap. But is it worth it? Absolutely!!

The food is superb! I had the banana nut bread french toast, which was covered in candied walnuts and strawberries and seriously made me want to lick the plate clean. My husband had the Deluxe Grits Bowl and it was just as perfect. They mix gouda cheese with their grits and it is heavenly.

EVERY detail has been thought of and put in place! This location is truly beautiful. The staff are outrageously kind and actually made me feel at home. Although they are known for their Bloody Marys, the Mimosas are absolutely delicious (we got a flight of mimosas to try 4 different kinds). The food was fabulous, and I can't recommend this place enough!!

My husband and I love sushi, and we've tried three of the closest sushi restaurants and 100% think Sushi Ronin is the best! The service and staff are awesome - they recognize us and are incredibly friendly and charismatic. The sake menu is big enough but not overwhelming. Most importantly, the sushi is fantastic! Definitely check on what's on the special menu - we always get Kanpachi, King Salmon (usually from NZ), and usually one of the 3x3 pieces options at the top of that menu. We've never been disappointed. We took some friends from out of town and upon leaving, one said, "If everyone in Denver is this nice and cool, I'm moving here!"

This place is a unique concept and the perfect spot for when you can't decide what you want to eat.
It's a huge, industrial style space with two levels and seven different culinary options. There's a rooftop bar with both indoor and outdoor seating. Downstairs has couches, tables, and high tops to choose from for seating options.
Each pseudo restaurant is housed in a food truck and it's fully staffed. I opted to try an arepa and it was delicious. The crunchy texture of the arepa paired with the juicy chicken and gooey cheese was mouthwatering. They're huge too so one is plenty!

It's only a couple minutes drive from our townhome, and I absolutely love this brewery! It really feels like the TV show "Cheers" when you walk in where everyone knows everyone. All the people here are very friendly and if you go often enough you will absolutely start to become buds with some of the locals here! It's got a great atmosphere, large, long, community high top tables, garage-style windows/clear walls that give you a great view of Sloan's lake.

What drew us to the museum was the temporary Star Wars wardrobe exhibit, which was amazing. What kept us there all day was the variety of exhibits from ancient art to modern art in every media imaginable. I personally enjoyed all the fabric art and the Japanese art exhibit. Convenient parking in the garage nearby, and if you want to take home something to remember your visit by, the gift shop will not disappoint!

The Colorado Rockies had a good year and made it to the playoffs. It was enjoyable to watch the product they put on the field. BUT......the real enjoyment of going to a Rockies game is the stadium - Coors Field. The facility has been maintained in such a way you would never guess it's actual age. The ownership group is always looking to enhance the spectator experience by adding new venues within the park and by constantly upgrading the existing ones.
