Rebel Restaurant Now Has Closing Date - Eater Denver

"Rebel Restaurant, the standout spot at the edge of RiNo, now has a closing date. The restaurant where pinball machines vie for attention just like the killer cocktails and outrageous whole hog’s head dinners closes on August 4, the owners say in an email to Eater Denver. “We weren’t sure as we are subleasing the space to the folks from Nocturne, but now that we have most of the paperwork handled we can confidently say that’s our last night,” a representative of the restaurant told Eater Denver in an email. The restaurant opened three years ago on Wynkoop Street with pierogies and tongue, and quickly became one of Eater’s 38 “essential” Denver restaurants. Rebel made a name for itself as an outsider in the local food scene with its whole hog heads served in the setting of a former biker bar. Only this summer, the restaurant hit issues with road construction and redevelopment in its RiNo neighborhood." - Susan Stapleton

Don't be fooled by the no-frills appearance on the outside. This place has great food and attentive service. I'm not an adventurous eater and the menu here took me out of my comfort zone, but I was blown away by the deliciousness! I was especially impressed by the Colorado cherry pulled flank steak. Our server recommended picking a few dishes for the two of us to share and 3 plates was a perfect amount for us. Even more impressive, the chefs themselves came by the tables and we had a chance to deliver our praises in person. We're sad to hear this place is eventually closing its doors, and we'll definitely be keeping up with them and looking forward to their next venture.

One of the best places Denver has to offer. Completely unassuming from the outside, there’s a whole world of funkiness and taste bud sensations within. Menu is full of delicious and innovative plates, and the cocktails are flat out mesmerizing. Staff is very friendly and entertaining. A lot of interesting and random pop culture items decorate the place, which kind of gets at the whole idea: for a small space, it really packs in a lot. A flavorful punch all around.

Have now been here 3 times and gone through enough of the food and drink to weigh in! The menu is eclectic to say the least, but the food is terrific and creative. Be sure to check on the "Pig Part of the Day" - and then just order it! Beer and wine menu is carefully chosen and very good. And the staff is top-notch, knowledgable, and fun as hell. Get to Rebel ASAP.

Rebel is off the beaten path, but well worth a visit. The food is top-notch here, and the menu is full of creative takes on dishes that you're familiar with (sometimes a little wild, but there are always options available!) The drink selection is also excellent; the cocktails were creative and well-prepared. The atmosphere and service were excellent as well; our server never left us hanging, and was fun to talk to, to boot. I'll definitely be back when I'm in the area!

Amazing food. Great unique beer collection. Really cool space and great service. The pork dishes we had were all amazing as was the burger (despite being overcooked beyond requested medium rare) and the scotch egg chicken parmesan thing was to die for. Great place, we will be back.

We dropped in on our recent vacation for our first meal in Denver. The waiter/bartender gave some advice on the beer selection and introduced me to my favorite beer of the entire trip. The food was quite tasty. My wife had the Nebraska meat pie, and I had their burger with an egg on top. Both were quite good, though if I'm honest I think my burger was a little bit too salty after the fact. If we wind up back in the area, I'll happily stop in again as the experience was quite good.
