The owners own 5 restaurants in Denver and they are consistently on the list of best restaurants in the city. Each one has a theme; this building used to be a brothel so they play off of that. Unique two-story layout overlooking a stage where they often have live music. Fantastic for any meal of the day, but especially brunch or dinner. Good cocktails too.

Same owners as Ophelia's, this one used to be a mortuary, so it's themed based on that. Fills up quickly.
