    This is an excellent place to go for a special occasion with a small group of 3-4 people, this place really showcases what Colorado fine dining can be. The waitstaff is great and very attentive to all of our questions. I personally recommend trying the asparagus as it's a staple and definitely worth it. I would also be open to trying something new and be ready to share all the food and have a conversation about it. The menu is seasonal and the flavors reflect the season and offer a variety if you want to try this multiple times throughout the year.

    We hadn't been here in years, but it seems quality and above all service is still at a high level. We came here first when it was.newnajd the place to eat, but today we just came for some appetizers and drinks before a charity event. Bartender was knowledgeable and passionate about his whiskey and was able to assuage by curiosity about Japanese whiskeys. We enjoyed the cornbread appetizer and the sourdough appetizer and the green olives.

    Wow. Awesome spot in Denver. In a cool hip trendy neighborhood and space. The food was fantastic. First and foremost, the chicken entree. Absurdly good. One of the best chickens I have ever had. The gruyere bread is out of this world. Pretzel - delicious. Raw Scallop - so refreshing yet full of flavor. Kale & apple salad - house specialty and really great. Shrimp and grits was WOW Skip dessert. It left a lot to be desired. But all the savory dishes we had were fantastic. Highly recommend for foodies and those who share plates.

    Service was great and all staff were knowledgeable. Place was already busy when they opened for lunch. The Reuben was delicious with perfect texture contrast and a hint of oak in the pastrami. Burger was OK. Again the hint of oak from the wood fired grill was great but mine was not seasoned thoroughly. Would love to dry their dinner.

    Some of the best food I have had in Denver! The waiter steered us in the right direction.. if you are in the mood for rich food, this is the place and the price matches it. Luckily it was worth every penny. In the photos you will see the tartar dish, the duck confit, and asparagus dish. Each one had incredible flavors and I’m not sure I would try anything else next time I go. When you find what you like, why change?

    For Denver Restaurant Week we tried Acorn. Acorn is located in a shared space called The Source in the RINO neighborhood. It is split into two sections, and this restaurant was in The Source #1. That space also housed a pizzeria, ice cream parlor, bakery, liquor store, bar, coffee shop, and hair salon. An upscale sushi restaurant and a brewery are supposedly coming soon. We believe there might be some residences in this building too, because we found a set of mailboxes and Amazon packages back near the restrooms. This space also differs from the food court style of Edgewater Public Market, because the restaurants are separately contained and Acorn required reservations. I didn't do my homework very well, and was surprised that the prix fixe Denver Restaurant Week option didn't offer any choices. Luckily one could order from their normal menu. I still opted to try the Restaurant Week menu and added the wine pairing. Course 1: Heirloom Blue Cornbread with surryano ham and red-eye butter. The cornbread was really savory, and paired well with the salty ham and coffee-infused butter. This was paired with a nice Santa Barbara chardonnay (Tyler). Course 2: Duck confit with green farro, field peas, baby leek and blood oranges. It was succulent and paired well with the Mendocino Ridge pinot noir (Drew). Course 3: Golden honey cake with cacao nibs, mandarin oranges, and honeycomb. The cake was light and not too sweet. The orange flavored vermouth dessert wine pairing was pretty disgusting! (Mommenpop) I could smell it several feet away, and it smelled like Mr. Bubble's Bubble Bath from the 80's. Bob thought it smelled like the inside of a Grandma's purse. I actually took two sips and could not finish it. Bob ordered the half chicken entree. It came over a bed of front range fungi, rainbow chard stems, bread and butter pickled radishes and something called RW roots. The chicken was extremely moist and Bob enjoyed it. He also ordered the chocolate cake offering. The chocolate cake was actually kind of dry. There were large dollops of hazelnut mousse, chopped up hazelnuts and another accoutrement. I preferred mine and he preferred his. ;) The ambiance is a young hispter/yuppy crowd. The music was very contemporary. This restaurant is more known for sharing plates even the larger entree size plates. Our table was wobbly when we got there, and Bob had to shim it with an extra napkin. For the upper echelon of a $45 Denver Restaurant Week option, I thought it fell a little short, but would still recommend for a more casual outing with friends.

    We were a party of 10 so we opted for choice four small plates: turning with baby cilantro and ponzu sauce, pork belly (not fatty), grilled broccoli, cucumber. entree restricted chicken only. One of the best meals I've ever had!
