"Oozing with Victorian elegance" and "old-world charm", this "understated" "small gem" in "fantastic" LoDo is a "step back in time" with "outstanding art deco decor" and "beautifully preserved" rooms bedecked with antiques; the "great seafood" at McCormick's and the "ultimate" martinis at the Cruise Room bar make it a "favorite stop for both business and pleasure", even if you don't stay overnight.

A "wonderful visit" awaits guests at this "gorgeous" chainster that feels like "an independent boutique hotel" just "minutes from Downtown" in the Cherry Creek shopping district; "modern" and "dog-friendly" ("watch out for poochies in the lobby"), it satisfies sojourners with a "superb" staff that "bends over backwards to make sure your needs are met" and "nice rooms" (some with panoramic mountain views) that are "perfect for business or a personal getaway."

"Fabulous service" is one of the draws at this "beautiful hotel" in a "convenient" Downtown location that "lives up to its name", exhibiting "excellent decor" ("especially in the lobby bar area"), nightly live piano music in the lounge, "wonderful mountain views" from "lovely rooms" outfitted with "comfy beds" and a "must-see rooftop bar"; it's a "great value", even if some foodies find the "expensive" food "mediocre, at best"; N.B. room renovations were recently completed.

Admirers of this "venerable" 1892 Downtown "classic" take a "lovely look at the past with a modern twist" at this "majestic" "beauty"; highlights include a soaring atrium lobby, "exceptional" suites (with LCD flat-screen TVs), "fine dining" (an "amazing" Sunday brunch, "superb" afternoon tea), a unique spa (with soaks that draw from a natural well located 750 feet beneath the hotel) and an "excellent" staff; calls for a "needed upgrade" are being addressed by ongoing remodeling.

"You'd have to travel to Tuscany to find better fare" than at this "elegant" Cherry Creek "favorite" where "beautiful people" sit by the "romantic fireplace" and savor "heavenly" Northern Italian cuisine that's "a study in flavor", especially when paired with selections from the "amazing wine list"; in fact, the staff itself "visits Italy every year", resulting in service that surveyors describe as "somewhat pretentious" but "knowledgeable and eager to help."

"For something different, but not too different", try this "vibrant" North Denver "favorite" where the "authentic" South American cuisine is "fabulous", especially the "super-fresh seafood dishes featuring spicy, tropical fruit accents"; the cuisine pairs well with "unique cocktails" and a "bold, colorful" interior that may be "a little kitschy" but has a "wonderful atmosphere overall."

"If you wish to splurge, look no further" than this Larimer Square link in an "always consistent" national chain, where a "flawless" staff "meets your every desire" as it delivers "luscious hunks of red meat" plus "fresh seafood" and selections from an "extensive wine list"; the "clubby dark-wood" setting fills up with "Downtown VIPs" who don't mind paying the "big prices" you'd expect from a "sure-to-impress" "steakhouse institution."

"Take your sweetheart" to this "charming" Highlands restaurant that's a "memorable experience" thanks to chef-owner Patricia Perry's "inventive" menu of "just plain lovely" New American cuisine, a "superb" spread that "lives up to the atmosphere": two 1890s-era Victorians featuring a series of "cozy", "inviting" rooms plus "delightful" garden dining on several "lush" patios; what's more, there's a "wonderful", "pampering" staff to ensure "nothing is amiss."

It's "not your average curry joint", so "don't let the strip-mall location turn you away" from this South Denver Indian where the "powerfully addictive", "perfectly spiced" cuisine will have you "salivating just approaching the restaurant" and the "regally appointed" dining room "boasts billowy fabrics and white tablecloths"; while a few feel the "inconsistent service" "needs some improvement", most agree "people come here for the food, which tastes awesome."

"There's nothing fishy" about this "stellar" duo in LoDo and Boulder that offers "shockingly decent seafood for a landlocked state", including "innovative entrees" and an "always hopping" raw bar where "lots of pretty people" "have a real blast" during "happy-hour heaven"; "awesome infused vodkas" and a "friendly staff" add to the "party" vibe, which has quiet types recommending you "bring earmuffs" to deal with the "extremely loud" acoustics.

Overseen by chef-owner Frank Bonanno ("the mind behind Mizuna"), this "splendid Italian noshery" on Capitol Hill is "a truly superior experience" offering "interesting culinary combinations" full of "unexpectedly wonderful flavors" plus homemade "pastas from the heavens"; although a few frown upon the "simple", "sterile" surroundings, they're outvoted by those who appreciate the "excellent tasting menu", "knowledgeable staff" and "great people-watching."

Rated No. 1 for Food in Colorado, this "consistently excellent" Capitol Hill "favorite" "still leads the pack" courtesy of "culinary genius" Frank Bonanno's "undeniably brilliant" New American menu (including "to-die-for lobster mac 'n' cheese"); it has "all the components of a wonderful evening" – a "well-rounded wine list", "impeccable service" and an "intimate, romantic" ambiance – so while prices are steep, it's "worth every penny" in order to "sweep a first date or longtime girlfriend off her feet."

Carnivores claim "you cannot beat the steaks" at these "reliable, upscale" chain links in Greenwood Village and LoDo, where the "quality" cuts are "perfectly done" and brought "sizzling" to the table by a "friendly, efficient" staff; as you might expect from an "old-school" "beef eater's paradise", the "dark, serious" "men's club feel" is coupled with "astronomical prices", so "bring plenty of dough" or "hope someone else is paying."

"Straight out of Saigon", this South Denver "institution" offers up an "extensive menu" of "crazy good" Vietnamese fare that's "authentic", "delicious" and "perfectly prepared" ("order the chef's specials and you won't be disappointed"); it's "always packed", the service is "harried" and the "minimal" decor "could use an upgrade", but that's "a small price to pay" for such "fabulous food" – literally, as "cheap" tabs make it "a fantastic deal."

Grab a credit card and "spend hours" roaming Downtown's "funky" pedestrian "indoor/outdoor mall", which encompasses sports-gear shops and gift boutiques as well as national retailers at the adjacent Denver Pavilions; there are also romantic "horse-drawn carriages on the weekend" and "some of the best dining" in the city, but while everyone applauds its "swift free shuttle service", a few feel the presence of "street kids" (read: skateboarders) "can make this area unattractive."

For "breathtaking views of the Colorado Rockies" (the mountains and the baseball team), fans flock to this "fabulously" retro LoDo stadium where "almost every hit" is a homer "because of the thin air", so sit in the "fun and cheap" Rockpile section behind center field; there are also luxury boxes as well as an on-site brewery and a multitude of munchies ranging from burritos to Chinese chicken salad – just be warned "prices for everything are outrageous."

"Eye-popping from the entry on in", this "first-class museum" in East Denver has "so much" to offer that you could "go for hours and still see only a small portion" of it; though the "terrific dinosaurs" (especially the "colossal T. rex") are the "main event", there's plenty more to see, including the "wonderful Hall of Life", "great IMAX theater", "top planetarium", "interactive" Space Odyssey exhibition and a host of "always-changing" attractions.

"Still the one to beat in D-town", this "well-executed", "underrated" animal asset in East Denver is a place to "spend a whole day" having more "fun" than a "barrel of monkeys", thanks in part to an "easy-to-navigate" 80-acre layout that "won't overwhelm" the weary; highlights include an aquarium teeming with "much more than just fish", a "terrific polar bear exhibit" and a "don't-miss" gorilla colony; N.B. the recently added Predator Ridge habitat is home to lions, spotted hyenas, African wild dogs and more.

"play it now before all the development is finished."

Jay Leno, Jerry Seinfeld, Tim Allen and Ellen DeGeneres have all graced the stage of this Larimer Square comedy club that puts famous faces on together with local up-and-coming talent; the yuks will cost some bucks, as there's a two item (food or drink) minimum and the cover varies depending on the act, but the over-21 crowd doesn't seem to mind; N.B. plans are in the works to open a second location in early 2008.
