FOOD
Sushi Den
Sushi Den was born in 1984 when Toshi, who had been a chef in Tokyo and Los Angeles came to Denver to start the sushi restaurant. Their most innovative accomplishment is flying in fresh fish from one of Japan’s largest fish markets, from the city of Fukuoka on Kyushu Island, close to the Japanese hometown of Sushi Den’s founders on the southern tip of Japan. Sushi Den is a feast for the eyes as well as the palette, and is the gathering place of Denver’s cutting edge.

In addition, the cocktails are to die for! They have been recently featured in a number of national publications including Bon Appetit and Details magazine.
DRINKS
Union Lodge No. 1
Union Lodge is a slinky speakeasy serving 19th-century-inspired cocktails in glam, Prohibition-era environs. Union Lodge is kind of place where bartenders are “mixologists” and the decor hearkens back to a vintage Americana vibe. The extensive menu got you reeling? Order a Ramos Gin Fizz, marvel at its foamy head, and know that you’re enjoying the drink the way it was intended to be served.
Tatarian
The Tatarian is a contemporary cocktail bar focusing on the craft of modern cocktails centered around the use of unique herbs, roots, and spices. The Tatarian pays homage to the roots of the Berkeley neighborhood, symbolizing a thriving, healthy, and connected community. You will love the elegant, creative seasonal cocktails at this compact, contemporary bar & lounge.
B&GC
This clandestine drinking spot is revived from the ruins of the former Cherry Creek Post Office. Born of the glory and prosperity of the decades following WWII in America, and America’s greatest generation,
B&GC is a celebration of the type of cocktailing and revelry often reserved for the elite, wealthy and powerful. B&GC inspires a time and place thought to be lost to the ages. Each sip is an experience, and each tipple filled with the titillating promise of exhilaration. Good luck finding this hidden speak easy in the heart of Cherry Creek!
