MICHELIN Bib Gourmand
2023
From the OpenTable editors: This glam Union Station spot is where you go for elegant Italian fare, thanks to the award-winning team behind Boulder’s Frasca Food and Wine. In a stunning dining room decked with colorful art and a centerpiece open kitchen, feast on refined housemade pastas like a ricotta gnudi with summer black truffle that earned the restaurant MICHELIN Bib Gourmand status. Bonus points for a cozy fireside lounge and outdoor patio, perfect for lingering over a Venetian spritz or glass of wine from the mainly-Italian list.
