About this restaurant

Lively
Good for special occasions
Great for creative cocktails

Housed in a former mortuary, the decor layers macabre remnants with posh details in a window-flanked space overlooking the charming Lower Highland neighborhood. The drink menu features sips and seasonings as savory as the dishes with which they're paired. While the rooftop patio-outfitted with 1975 GMC RV as bar and repurposed food truck as kitchen- beckons patrons towards adventure.

Micky was the most attentive server in the history of servers. The woman was everywhere she should be and nowhere she shouldn't. Attentive, without being oppressive, amazing without being an angel. But close.

Really fun food concept and great service! This place is large and even when it is packed, the food comes out fast. A very well thought through concept. The food was playful and flavor packed. Our server Julia was very attentive and welcoming. Highly recommended!

This “sharing plates” at these restaurants has gotten out of hand. It’s just another way to charge a lot of money for food. We spent approximately $30 for 2 orders of pork belly buns so that we could feed the 5 of us. $7.50 for an order of two buns. $15 for 4. So I had to order 2 orders. Not to mention the Waygu sliders which were $23 for 2 “sliders.” So I had to order 3 orders. Everything was delicious but not out of the ordinary. Too expensive!

We drove down from Firestone and loved dining here for Mother's Day Brunch, we were seated in a perfect spot, the waitress Julia, was AMAZING! Attentive, very customer service oriented and very sweet. The food was delicious and the drinks were scrumptious. We're definitely coming back again!

Food was great!!! And Our experience would have been great had it not been for 2 things - The wait staff brought us food we didn’t order. We immediately called our waitress over, who apologized, and said it would NOT be on the bill. It was, but of course we didn’t notice until AFTER we paid and wondered why the bill was so high. (we never got to see the Bill. When we told her we were going to split it between two cards, she just presented each of us a total. Sadly we didn’t think to question if it was correct until after we paid. After we paid we realized how much our bill was altogether so looked. Luckily my friend got a copy and we noticed we were charged for the item we didn’t order as well as a 5% surcharge ! In addition to our 20% tips!! Watch out for the 5% Denver Employee Benefits Surcharge automatically charged to your bill!!!!
