• Comfort Food • Highlands
Booked 16 times today
Acova is writing the next chapter of one of Denver’s great neighborhoods. An iconic locale in a historic district, Acova builds on the rich story of “The Northside” (now known as LoHi) by breathing new life into an address with soul. Even its name pays homage to its South Broadway sibling restaurant The Hornet, while tipping a cap to its storied Italian predecessor Patsy’s. The place you bring friends and family from out of town to show them what Denver’s all about. The place you go for that after work cocktail, or your go to date spot, whether it’s your first or 50th date. The place you get the group together on a Saturday night, and where you recover together on a Sunday morning. Acova is the next Highlands institution, bearing vintage flair and contemporary charm that threads the past into the future. Acova brings you back time and again because you are part of this story now, and Acova is part of yours.

• Italian • Downtown / LoDo

Chef-driven, artisan Italian nestled in the heart of iconic Larimer Square. Osteria Marco is fine dining quality in a casual setting. We believe in craftsmanship and artistry—pizzas hand tossed to order, pasta hand rolled daily, cheese (like our famous burrata) and salumi crafted on site. Bartenders muddle and infuse; wines evolve to reflect the variety of the Italian countryside and climate. Descend the grand staircase, hunker down and, really... try the burrata. Don't forget to join us for Drag Bingo Brunch every Sunday alongside bottomless mimosas and a scratch Italian brunch!

• Steakhouse • LoHi

A great restaurant meal can be an act of storytelling and transportation. Sliding onto a stool at a bar, being met with a classy and silky martini punctuated with a briny olive, is there to prepare you for a plate of finely-shucked oysters that were bobbing in the Atlantic 36 hours ago. In this moment the noise and cacophony can melt away, your phone finds its way back into your pocket, and we find communion with those of us on our left and right.We place a premium on doing the work to find producers, growers, and ranchers that have values that align with our own. It’s our desire to bring food to your table that speaks to its sense of place and time, and to be able to bring the connection to those producers to a higher level of consciousness.

    I don’t usually write reviews but our experience last night at Acova deserves more than the 5 stars I just gave it. Our party of 5 was high maintenance with 2 people having celiac disease and one young lady who has many serious food allergies, so much so that eating out is a rarity for her. Our server, whose name I’m sorry to say I can’t remember, went way above and being the call of duty talking note of the allergies, making several trips to the kitchen to double check things and even bringing out a big book with all of the ingredients for all of the menu items in it. The kitchen made a custom meal for our friend that met her needs. And on top of all of that the food was delicious. All five of us ate every bite. Thank you Acova and our wonderful server!

    We had an outstanding experience, thank you. The personnel and Brett did a great job! Very welcoming and made our birthday experience extra special. One piece of feedback would be the plating of the cavier could have been more refined and thoughtful- specifically the serving spoon was too big and the plate was too big for the proportions of cavier and condiments.

    Our server was fantastic, offering great recommendations on wine & food pairings. We shared many plates among five people & it all meshed nicely. Hoping to get back before the restaurant closes permanently in January.
