Best Neighborhood Gem Restaurants in East Colfax

Delicious apps: salad, carpaccio & focaccia. Lobster pasta & lamb ragù were spot on. Cocktails & wine were lovely. Definitely recommend

I live in Denver and brought a visiting friend to tea. It was a lovely experience - not inexpensive, but since it's not an everyday outing, that was fine. The room was beautiful, the food was very good, the tea selection was excellent and the service was outstanding. However, it IS Denver and it DOES get cold here in the winter; it was uncomfortable in the atrium and most people kept their coats and scarves on. It's too bad the Brown Palace Hotel hasn't figured out a way to combat the frigid outdoor temperatures better. Since we 'dressed up' for the occasion, it was a shame to have to keep our outerwear on the whole time. Overall, a fun experience.

It’s always fun to experience Benzina through the eyes of a new person. My first time guest loved the amazing food and of course the excellent service. Great to see all the friendly faces.

The dining experience was outstanding. Makayla was our wait person and she really brightened the day. She was very helpful to address allergies and also give us insight into the different dishes. It’s been a while since we’ve been in and I’m so sorry it’s taken this long. My fav was the chicken lettuce wraps, and the many options for non alcohol beverages. .

Wonderful neighborhood breakfast/brunch gem! We weren't sure what to expect as it was our 1st visit, but we were very pleased with the food & service. Not a fan of how the waitlist program works, but we were seated quickly.
