No cliff divers, no care. Nobody goes to Casa Bonita for the food.
About time! Debbie Does Donuts has been gone a long time now.
Slowly getting things unpacked at the new place has had us eating out this week, I'll add any restaurants here that I think are worth sharing. We try to cook as much as possible, but with two boys under 3, there are just some nights we don't feel like cooking, so we have to have a couple household staples to choose from (Good wings, Mexican, and pizza). El Tapatio off Wads and 285 is really good (salsa is amazing and the closest I've found to my homemade). Wing slingers right off of Santa Fe and Prince was quite tasty (we normally go to wing stop, but there isn't one close to the new place).
Well Hell!!! Two of my favorite restaurants have closed. Rosa Linda's and Julia Blackbird are gone.
La Cafeteria closed in Greeley. I'd been eating there for 28 years.
about time on Rosa Linda's. Ate there regular 88-92, went back last summer and god was it pitiful. Service horrible, dirty booth(s), food sucked. I should have checked yelp before going. We were the only customers during a saturday evening when things should have been alive and busy. (everything else in the area is busy)
At "Toast" right now, have a chicken fried steak and eggs on its way! First time here, so far it's a real neat place, with great coffee!

Has anyone tried "MC's Brooklyn pizzeria" off of Bowles and Wads(ish) in Littleton? A co worker of mine who is well traveled (read has eaten good pizza), gives it rave reviews.
I've seen a few sushi posts but by far the best sushi in the state is at Sushi Den and a close second is Sushi Sasa.
A few pizza joints in the new hood worth adding (*disclaimer* apparently I've never had real pizza because I've never been to New York, so take it for what it's worth).
MC's Brooklyn Pizzeria on Bowls, just before Wad's. Really good pizza, and the calzone I sampled was awesome!
Mike's famous Pizza on Quincy and Lowell. Pizza is awesome, and they make a 20" which I don't see many people doing anymore. Prices are great.
Walter's Pizzeria on Belleview and Lowell (a member here suggested them when I first moved to this area). We tried their deep dish because we rarely go deep (lol), and it was awesome. Will try their standard hand tossed next time we go, I expect it to be good because that place was super busy for a Thursday night, and is always packed when I drive by.
Got a deep dish pizza from Walter's tonight. Was coming out of the oven just as I got there, but apparently someone new in the kitchen put on way too much sauce, so they had to make it again. It was worth the wait... best deep dish I've had, better than the one I had in chicago based on a chicago native's recommendation.
It's a little bit of a drive for me, but it's worth it.
Wow no activity on this thread?
Nacy's Cafe in Westminster.
Pete's Kitchen is pretty good.
Red Rooster Denver. Great Place to stop in before Tanner

Finally made it back to Walter's and tried their hand tossed, did the meat lover's and was impressed. Reminded me why I rarely do pepperoni tho, just a bit too greasy for my taste (but that's with just about any pizza with pepperoni imo). We got there at about 5pm and there was only one other party, within about 30 minutes the place completely filled up, and I lost track of the number of people walking in for carry out orders.

Pho 15 on 58th-ish and Washington is in the running to be my new Pho place since Spicy Basil sucks now. I've only had Pho 15 once, but the price was right and it was good. Othwrwise, I go to Pho 4 Mua on Grant near Wells Fargo.
I was doing a project in Midland, TX, years ago.
I asked the company contact, Miss Lucy, where the best place to eat was.
She replied, "Miss Lucy's back yard."
She turned out to be an accomplished cook for outdoor grilling.
So, I took it to heart, and now tell people the best place to go is "Dave's back yard"
Goodys Eatery in Westminster
Born in a Barn in Laramie, WY has an excellent burger and fries.
I had a burger cooked medium, jalapenos, cream cheese, pepper jack, red onions, bbq and ketchup 4th of July weekend. It was amazing.

Best Italian I've had in Colorado?
1. Neapolitan's, in Nederland. (But I see a rumor it's closed.)
2. The Saucy Noodle, in Bonnie Brae.
3. Maggiano's, in Centennial.
Was up in Broomfield yesterday evening to pick up some boots from Jason303... I usually stick to the south side of denver, so looked up restaurants in Broomfield on yelp, and found The Burns Pub and Restaurant.
Very good english/irish pub fare, and a huge selection of whiskeys.
Started with Irish Poutine (was fries and gravy with really chunks of corned beef mixed in),
My wife had the Shepard's Pie, I had the rueben (with more of the house made / aged corned beef). We both took home about 1/2 of our meal.
Also had Irish cream creme brulee, and some sticky toffee pudding (apparently a common english thing).
Everything we had was great. We ended up there pretty close to peak dinner time, and didn't have a wait.
Best Italian I've had in CO is at Undici.

A little pricier than Olive Garden, but man alive it's amazing.
ETA: Looking at their menu again, it's actually about on par with Olive Garden for similar items. But they're soooo much better.

Only negative thing I have to say about Smokin' Daves BBQ in Lyons is that my cornbread was cold and even at that it still tasted good. Everything else was hot and steaming.
I had the three meat platter (your choices) and shared with a friend.
Roasted BBQ Chicken - excellent flavor, juicy, tender and fell right off the bone.
St. Louis style ribs - great flavor, sauces, smoked to perfection, juicy, tender and fell right off the bone.
The Brisket - was amazing. By far the best I've ever had, juicy, tender and full of flavors that left you wanting more.
Baked beans were excellent!
Potato salad was good, could have been a smidge sweeter.
By far one of the best bbq joints I have found in Colorado. I will definitely be returning for more!

Having spent the first twenty-eight years of my life in Texas I’m kind of spoiled to good barbecue. I’ve been to that place in Lyons and it is pretty good. Worth the stop if you’re that way and you need to grab a bite.
Best Italian in Denver area...Il Fornaio in the DTC....you'll need a reservation
