Death & Co Denver

The Wolf's Tailor

A grain-forward restaurant from a former Frasca chef that mills its own flour and bakes some of the most extraordinary bread in Colorado. The pasta is hand-pulled and the whole operation runs on a quiet obsession with ancient grains and fermentation. It's ambitious without being fussy, and every plate has a story rooted in the dirt it came from.

Beckon

A hidden tasting-menu restaurant tucked behind Call, its casual sibling. You walk through what looks like a normal restaurant and end up in a 22-seat room where chef Duncan Holmes serves one of the most inventive prix fixe meals between the coasts. It feels like a secret because it basically is one. Denver's most ambitious kitchen, operating in near-silence.

Hotel Clio

A luxury property at the edge of Cherry Creek that feels more like a well-connected friend's penthouse than a hotel. The rooftop pool has unobstructed mountain views, the rooms are clean-lined and warm, and the service walks the line between attentive and invisible. It's the kind of place that makes you wonder why you ever stayed downtown.
