Guidebook for Denver
Food Scene
It's my favorite of the exceptional farm-to-table restaurants in Lohi (see also Root Down and Linger). Duo has a really bar where you can sit and eat if you are on your own. It is a great place for a romantic evening, or a Saturday or Sunday brunch with friends. Reservations recommended.
