33 Best Restaurants in Denver
"Humming with activity from early morning until bedtime, this ambitious yet welcoming café, bakery, and restaurant in a former book bindery plays the part of both a neighborly hangout for all ages and a civilized retreat for grown-ups. By day, The Bindery's market counter is lined with ever-changing pastries and pantry items galore. By night, the kitchen works its magic with the most uncompromising of seasonal ingredients and far-flung influences. Raspadura? Santa Claus melon? Black sapote? Taboon? Don’t shy away from the unfamiliar here; the point of the experience is to, well, experience. Take smoked rabbit, a specialty with earthy sweetness that chef (and owner) Linda Hampsten Fox likes to showcase against the sharper tang of mustard, cheddar, and pecans, or Turkish-style börek, a savory cheese pastry accompanied by a pomegranate molasses–laced tomato salad called ezme." - Ruth Tobias
