Dining in Denver

For the first time ever, we rank the top 25 restaurants in the region. Plus: Denver's best chefs and dining trends.

For the past 12 months, we've tasted, dipped, spooned, and sipped our way through Denver and Boulder's finest restaurants. We've had some truly unforgettable meals, and, yes, we've also had a few disappointments along the way. But when we sat down to put together this ranking, what became abundantly clear was the depth and the breadth of our local restaurant scene—in which you'll find not only elegance and execution, but also creativity and whimsy. Put very simply, there's never been a better time to be dining in Denver. Cheers.
