The 27 Best Restaurants In Denver - Denver - The Infatuation

"So you want French food but you don’t have a corporate card to pick up the tab, and your bedazzled Chanel suit is at the dry cleaners (oops!). Enter the more casual Brasserie Brixton, where the steak frites and pâté are always on point, but there are also Star Wars stormtroopers painted behind the bar. This neighborhood spot was designed to be frequented, which is why there’s always a well-priced burger and fries available alongside the mussels and tartare. While the Asian influences continue to creep onto the menu—the blood sausage wontons and chili crisp duck are totally welcome, though—Brixton’s soul is all caramelized onions, crème fraîche, and butter. So much butter. (And when you do pick up that Chanel suit, head to Le Bilboquet in Cherry Creek for classic French cuisine with a side of prime people watching.)" - allyson reedy, patricia kaowthumrong
