Welcome to a taste of history!

Denver’s original steakhouse, The Buckhorn Exchange is located in the city’s oldest neighborhood, just 5-minutes from downtown Denver -- with a light-rail stop right across the street. This National Historic Landmark and Western Museum has been serving the finest in Old West fare since 1893.

Prime grade beef steaks, buffalo prime rib, elk, salmon, quail, game hen, and succulent baby-back pork ribs are just some of the marvelous offerings on the Buckhorn menu. Exotic appetizers such as alligator tail and buffalo sausage are available, and no dinner is complete without the house specialty, Rocky Mountain Oysters.

For lunch we serve up a lighter fare including our renowned Grandma Fanny’s pot roast sandwich, enormous beef and buffalo burgers and more!

    When in Denver, you MUST eat at Buckhorn Exchange on Osage! Serving since 1893, the food, drinks, history and game trophy memorabilia motif are phenomenal! I enjoyed the Blackened Buffalo Prime Rib - Delicious! Our table of four all had something different and everything was amazing. All the wait staff were fabulous, and we thoroughly enjoyed Jhovanny who gave great insight to the history of the place with a lot of fun facts. The Hubster finished almost all of his dinner, only to save enough room for the triple layer chocolate cake with ice cream. We will absolutely return! It is a one-of-a-kind place and well worth the visit!

    Delightful place. The food was amazing, except for the rolls which were cold and a little stale. But it was one of the best rib-eyes ever. The waitress was great, service prompt but not intrusive, and the place is full of fascinating history. We've lived in Denver since 1972 and this is the first time we'e gone there. Well worth a trip!!
