We have a couple of super fun party suggestions, but first let’s figure out dinner.
The downtown Denver restaurant scene continues to innovate by attracting dozens of new cuisines representing different styles and cultures. Since NYE is one of the busiest days in downtown Denver we recommend making your reservation sooner than later. We’ve complied the following list to help narrow down your choices and help you make your NYE night out even better.
- So what is Work & Class? The simplest way we know to talk about it is as a “square meal, stiff drink, and fair price.” We believe that the best restaurants are the simplest ones, that the food and drinks we love and crave don’t involve fussy or unfamiliar ingredients or cooking techniques.
- Modern yet welcoming, Osteria Marco challenges expectations about what it means to be a family-style Italian restaurant. With hand-crafted meats and artisanal cheeses made on-site, this renowned eatery under the direction of famed chef Frank Bonanno provides a sophisticated twist on everything from pizza to more exotic fare.
