"Tapas for brunch? It’s a thing — a sure one — at this glam Union Station homage to the Iberian Peninsula. But there’s more to the menu than classic small plates like croquetas de jamón, pan con tomate, and patatas bravas: Plancha cakes with orange-scented maple syrup, steak and eggs with mojo verde and mojo rojo, and tortilla española make for a merry midday meal (as do pitchers of sangria in lieu of mimosas)." - Ruth Tobias
"The quintessential food for sharing, tapas forms the core of the menu at this Iberian Peninsula-styled haunt in Union Station. Ultreia’s gorgeously moody decor serves as the ideal backdrop for such lusty stuff as croquetas de jamón, patatas bravas with octopus, Moorish spiced ribs with Basque chiles, and churros with chocolate ganache and salted caramel (paired, of course, with glasses of Sherry or “gin tonics,” as the Spanish call them). Too wrapped up in one another to focus on the menu? Just order the Chef’s Feast, an omakase-style repast that, at $90 for two, is a bargain as well as an adventure." - Ruth Tobias
"Tapas are meant to be shared, so they’re ideal for a Christmas Eve gathering of friends and loved ones. Good thing, then, that this Iberian-inspired haunt in Union Station will be open for business as usual, serving up such mighty morsels as pan con tomate, patatas bravas with octopus, and Moorish-spiced ribs as well as a few as-yet-undisclosed specials." - Eater Staff
"In the thick of the action at Union Station, this splashy gastroteka is prime for people-watching over tapas, pintxos, and gin tonics (as they’re called in Spain). Must-tries include the classic pan con tomate, patatas bravas with octopus, and Moorish-spiced ribs along with at least one order of tinned seafood; a glass of Sherry to kick or cap things off is likewise de rigueur." - Gigi Sukin
"A Spanish pintxos restaurant led by James Beard award-winning chef Jennifer Jasinski, where you can cap off your Denver weekend with cocktails and sharing plates like bacon-wrapped dates, pan con tomate, blistered shishito peppers, and charcuterie." - Travel + Leisure Editors
