FOOD - DRINKS - FRIENDS....the Milanese Apericena comes to Denver!Voghera prides itself in being the first and only restaurant offering APERICENA in the United States. This modern Milanese style of dining is derived from the combination of the words Aperitivo (happy hour) and Cena (dinner). Very similar to the Spanish tapas, Apericena is a convivial experience which embraces small plates and drinks to encourage sharing and the opportunity to savor different flavors and dishes. An entire meal can be composed of smaller dishes or sample one or two alongside larger plates, like our signature Cotoletta alla Milanese – breaded bone-in 16oz veal cutlet – the fresh meat and fish of the day, as well as enjoy our Menu Milanese – a 4- course prix-fixe that revolves around Milan’s best known dishes.Our small but seasonal menu is inspired by the culinary tradition of Milan and also represents the Northen Italian cuisine.

• Mexican • Highlands
Booked 11 times today
Our menu is inspired by the Mexican regions of Yucatán, Oaxaca, and Veracruz. We strive to respect the influences and traditions of these diverse cultures to bring you food that is uniquely El Jefe. We believe in doing things the right way. Not because it’s trendy or cool, but because it’s right. We change our menu with the grow season, supporting our neighbors and the terroir of Colorado. We are not your average Mexican joint, rather a reflection of our environment and beliefs. We hand make our tortillas every day. All of our pork comes from one whole hog. Our chefs breakdown the whole animal, for chorizo, appetizers, stocks, soups, and entrees. Nothing is wasted. We do this out of respect for the animal and for the people who raised them for us. Anything we can produce in our kitchen is done by us, with love. No frills, just good food. We do an amazing brunch on the weekends, and by default or menu is nearly 100% gluten free.

    As a daughter of Italian immigrants, it has been really hard finding authentic Italian food since moving to Denver. Since finding this place, I have come back so many times. Very authentic experience, the menu is set up just like they are in Italy, and incredible fresh pastas and foods. They were refreshing to be able to speak Italian when I come here with the stuff, and it is not an overly Americanized Italian restaurant like many other ones here.

    We had a lovely afternoon. Beautiful space. Myself and friend with our 17yr old daughters who loved all the beautiful pictures options. Tea options were fantastic. Food was good although I do think we should be able to get 1 refill of scones and sandwiches as that is how I have had in the past, but that’s my only nitpick.
