Molotov Kitschen + Cocktails

The Best Restaurants in Denver | Eater Denver

"The words “Eastern European food” and “sexy” rarely appear in the same sentence, but this snug East Colfax charmer may change that. Even the humblest and heartiest of ingredients — turnips and rutabaga, beets and buckwheat — get the gourmet treatment from endlessly creative owner Bo Porytko and his team, who transform them into refined dishes like mushroom- and chestnut-stuffed pumpernickel dumplings in mulled wine gravy and rabbit meatloaf with parsnip puree and golden raisin ketchup. It all pairs perfectly with horilka-based cocktails and wines from, say, Slovenia and Serbia. (Pro tip: Book seats at the the counter for the ultimate intimate experience.)" - Ruth Tobias
