Bird & Jim

3 Best Day Trips From Denver | Condé Nast Traveler

"There's no shortage of locally sourced, New American restaurants in the Colorado high country, but Bird & Jim sets itself apart with a menu that manages to overlap fine dining and comfort food. The Mountain Jim Burger is a well-executed classic, topped with white cheddar and a "magic sauce." Venture beyond the sandwich section and try entrées with ingredients from the Centennial state, like the Colorado Trout or the Colorado Lamb Bolognese. This is a do-it-all spot that works equally well for a sit-down, casual lunch as it does for a dress-and-heels date night with wine." - Megan Barber
