"Much to many Denverites’ delight and surprise, this iconic destination is back in business after closing in fall 2022. Granted, for the time being, the menu at chef-owner Gaku Homma’s self-styled “Japanese country restaurant” is smaller than it used to be, and the hours are more limited (11 a.m. to 7 p.m., Monday through Saturday). But the remarkable setting remains the same: The dining room evokes some woodcutter’s cottage out of an old folktale, while the garden it leads to is among the most enchanted spots in Denver." - Eater Staff
