The Next Big Thing Billy Bob's Riverside Saloon raises the bar for bar burgers. Tokyo Joe's has Denver turning Japanese. Citrus bubbles over with good things. The Appaloosa Grill is eager to please but slow out of the starting gate. So many happy hours, so little time.
Readers give our food critic something to chew on.
The pie's the limit. When I moved to Denver seven years ago, fellow transplants warned me that I'd never find a pizza that compared with the ones I missed back East. And in the meantime, many other places have opened that serve decent pies, even if they're a far cry from the pizzas I left behind. For example, there's the Coney Island pie, which comes adorned with hot dogs and mustard. Still, the couple is toying with the idea of keeping some of Saffron's more popular dishes on Pesce Fresco's menu.
