Updated deli classics & Mediterranean fare with cocktails

























"This fast-casual favorite in the Golden Triangle really lays the bargains on thick. From 4 p.m. to 7 p.m. weekdays, it’s serving up loaded toasts, bread spreads, and sampler boards featuring tinned fish, charcuterie, and mezze with all manner of accoutrements at prices ranging from $8 to $19. Head here for an array of spritzes for $10, draft beers for $6, and wines for $6 by the glass or a mere $24 by the bottle — and those drink specials are also available from open to close on weekends." - Ruth Tobias


"One word: pastrami. Scratch-made by a 12-day process, it’s showcased at this Golden Triangle deli in myriad forms — on sandwiches with eggs, cheddar, and arugula; in gravy atop biscuits; and even in breakfast burritos. Want another word? How about toast: Here, fresh-baked sourdough comes topped with everything from smoked salmon, chive cream cheese, caper gremolata, and pickled mustard seeds to whipped labneh, caramel tahini, and pistachio dukkah." - Ruth Tobias

"If your preferred lunch routine includes sweet treats and a glass of orange wine (whose doesn’t?), check out Leven Deli Co. in Capitol Hill. The deli/bakery/wine bar serves a long list of salads and sandwiches, including a fantastic reuben with rich 12-day aged pastrami and tart mustard on housemade rye. Try one alongside a chunky tahini brownie and a glass of vino on the patio where you can gaze upon the Denver Art Museum or count the number of 4Runners parked on the street." - allyson reedy, chelsea thomas

"Located steps away from the bustling streets of Capitol Hill and less than a block from the Denver Art Museum’s bronze cow sculpture in the Golden Triangle Art District, Leven Deli Co. offers the best of traditional Jewish comfort food in the heart of Denver with a healthy spin on classic deli fare." - Josie Sexton
