Price: Expensive
• Italian • Downtown / LoDo
Booked 41 times today
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!

Price: Expensive
• Seafood • Downtown / LoDo
Booked 22 times today
We don't take ourselves too seriously at Jax Fish House. Two things we do take seriously? The freshness and sustainability of our seafood. You know fresh fish when you see, smell, and taste it-and thanks to modern delivery technology, we bring in that freshy-fresh seven days a week. Sustainability is a little more complicated. Not all commercial fisheries are created equal. That's why we work closely with our suppliers and science-based organizations to ensure that every single thing we serve is responsibly sourced. We consider the stocks of the species we source to prevent overfishing and we work with suppliers who harvest in ways that have minimal impacts on marine environments.

    Went here for Valentine’s with the hubby. The atmosphere was intimate and lovely. They gave us a rose, there were rose petals on the table, and the other patrons were all having their conversations at the same level so there was just a nice quiet mummer over the restaurant. It was so nice and the food was terrific, it was the first dinner in months where neither of us felt drawn to take out our phones. The energy was just right for us to feel like being engaging with one another. 10/10 would (and most likely will) dine again.

    🌟 Dinner Delight Alert! 🌟 Last night, my husband and I indulged at The Capital Grille, and it was simply a feast for the senses! 🍽️✨ The ribeye steak? Cooked to perfection! But let’s talk about that Lobster-N-Macaroni side dish was absolute heaven on a plate! 🦞❤️ And the cherry on top? The crème brûlée! 😍🍮 Silky smooth with a perfectly caramelized top—just divine! Can’t wait to return for another amazing evening! If you’re on the hunt for a luxurious dining experience, I highly recommend that you book a table! 🎉 #DiningExperience #FoodieHeaven #CapitalGrille
