This journey began in defense of the maker, those that bring to light from darkness, an idea. Our inspiration comes from memory, of travels we’ve taken - it is the thread that helps us bind our creation. Wolf’s is the laboratory where inspiration turns to creation, creation is stitched into a form that when examined takes guests on the creators' journey of exploration. But the quest to create comes not for the supplication of an audience, but for the continual introspective pursuit of pushing the boundaries of what we know as possible.

    Afternoon tea was lovely! Brown Palace beautifully decorated for Christmas, so festive! Atmosphere was cheery and bright and had all the holiday feels. I had heard that the BP had gone downhill a bit, but that was not at all our experience. Every staff member I encountered was friendly and polite. Our server was wonderful and attentive, and the food was terrific! Added bonus there was a piano player and he was wonderful and made the event even more special! Highly recommend!

    We recently celebrated my wife’s birthday at Tavernetta and it was an unforgettable experience. The highlight of the evening was the pasta with lobster—perfectly cooked and brimming with flavor. It was a dish to savor with every bite. The ambiance was warm and inviting, making it an ideal spot for a special occasion being my wife’s birthday. The staff were attentive and friendly. Great suggestion made for our first time here! If you’re looking for authentic Italian cuisine with a touch of elegance, Tavernetta is a fantastic choice. We’ll definitely be back!

    I always enjoy Sam Fox restaurants. There just seems to be a solid backbone of culture in the company, The service is always great - shout out to Aton at Culinary Dropout last night. The food and menu options are always spot on - there is a good selection of mocktails for the alcohol aware. The ambiance, decor, and entertainment options are usually good as well. I've been for live musicians and thoroughly enjoyed it. Keep it up, Culinary Dropout Denver!
