Best Open Kitchen Restaurants in Central

Best meal we have had in Denver in a long time! Food, service and ambiance were incredible. Shelby made the night even more fun and memorable. Thank you!

Great experience. Both the service and food were amazing.

Was a great little spot for brunch. I imagine that they get very busy when there are events and later in the morning. They opened early enough that we were able to beat the lunch brunch crowd. I had the breakfast burger and everything about that was amazing, the home fries were great to go with that. They totally botched the sourdough pancake though. I got it first underdone in the middle and send it back, then they tried again and burnt it while trying to get it done. Seems like whoever was running the kitchen didn't really know how to make this kind of pancake work with their griddle or pan. Lower heat, more time next time. :D Otherwise it was good enough I'd give it another shot.

EL FIVE was a great place for my son's birthday. The ambiance and food were amazing. And staff were all so attentive to our needs and very knowledgeable about the menu. The chef sent out some incredible dishes to our table. CATY was a fantastic server, knowledgeable and great personality to make our experience top notch.

My friend and K really enjoyed Linger! We ordered the pork belly bao, sweet fries, and charred edamame for a shared dinner. All of the food was packed with flavor and delicious. She ordered an old fashioned and I ordered the Thai tea cocktail. She enjoyed her old fashioned and said it was very orange forward, I was unfortunately not a fan of my cocktail but I think only because of personal preference. Overall I still would give it a 5/5. Ambiance was great but it was a tad loud. Looking forward to going back and trying more things!
