- EaterJanuary 3, 2014The wood-fired modern American cooking and the elevated craft cocktail program at Acorn have made a splash in Denver since the restaurant's opening. The restaurant also started serving lunch.
Julie BiAugust 11, 2014Very cool industrial decor, exposed brick, graffiti on the walls. Food is amazing - gnocchi was perfect, sweet corn risotto also delicious! Great cocktails too
Ashley MowreyJuly 29, 2015Friendly staff, a nice patio, and a decent menu. The BLT was not a BLT, it had super thick bacon and pork and no lettuce. The grilled cheese was amazing though. It was easy to get a table.
Kyle R.August 8, 2014The fried egg and bacon salad was really delicious and not too rich. A good dish, but don't go out of your way if you're between this and something more original.
Diana ChowSeptember 18, 2016Everything about this dining experience was great — ambience, service, and of course, the food. This is definitely in my top 5 fave restaurants.
Jessica ShimAugust 13, 2014Bon Appetit says to get: Rosie's Return (gin, rosé, rose water…); lamb "shawarma" with watermelon, cucumber, and feta; oak-grilled chicken with bread pudding- Kyle R.August 8, 2014The 1/2 chicken was amazing! I almost enjoyed the veggies and bread underneath more than the chicken. So good!
Abbey KeckAugust 13, 2014Get the Farmer's Market Salad, and the Crispy Egg and Applewood Smoked Bacon Salad. The Oak Grilled Eggplant is a must.
Lindsay BrookeApril 5, 2017Awesome restaurant. Get the kale apple salad and beef tartare. Best beef tartare I've ever had.
Haley JosephAugust 11, 2014Cool industrial building that's been renovated into a few restaurants, art gallery, bar and market! Great unique food options.
Maximum BurgerNovember 8, 2018Came here for a private event. Service was superb, as was the food and the beer. Great environment
DeanFebruary 28, 2016Overall, delicious food; inventive dishes. Lunchtime prices are reasonable - $12-16 for a main dish. Skip the fried pickles, they're not worth it.
Men's Health MagMarch 10, 2015This River North eatery has an eye on sustainable/seasonal ingredients and a top-notch beer and wine selection. Read more
John HaberlandJanuary 25, 2014Amazing cocktails. Food is very good but the portions are a little on the small side, especially the duck.
Jason BellowsNovember 14, 2018Flawless execution, fabulous cocktails; ever deserving to be in the company of Denver’s best.
Shannon VogelJanuary 18, 2014Sit at the chef counter and watch the show. They are the most fun and impressive group of people to watch!
Dominic GadouryOctober 10, 2015Loved this place. Great food and drink! It's like Chelsea Market in Denver!
Adam HendricksApril 12, 2014kate was awesome, the sunset outside was gorgeous. get the kale salad and pate 👌
- Kyle R.August 8, 2014The blackened perch was a good dish, especially with the creamed corn, but the fish itself isn't the best.
QualtimeJanuary 11, 2014Food is great. Service is outstanding, especially Jason S. Get the crispy egg salad :-)
Kasey SchindlerJuly 27, 2017I prefer lunch here as it's more focused on delicious sandwiches as opposed to smaller items to share. The burger and tots are out of this world. I love how they give you just enough tots - amazing.
Sarah LeslieApril 4, 2014If you're blonde and wearing a bedazzled sweater, at least one of the waiters may falsely make the gross assumption that a scotch drink is not what you're interested in.

"Huge huge fan. Reuben sandwich is amazing. Just a great atmosphere in Union Station. Generally not crowded like Snooze."
Benjamin Blackmer - 7.5
"Great, cozy place. I never drink soda but went for one of their house-made sodas, it was awesome. Not too sugary, don't miss out!"
Griffin Turnipseed - 6.7
"The Brussel sprouts were amazing. The fries are also fantastic. DO NOT ORDER THE FILLET... It tastes like a TV dinner, but worse... and it’ll end up well done."
