Nice restaurant, good food nice ambiance. Portions are a little small prices are a little big. But it was still a good Sunday brunch.

I spend far too much time daydreaming about the gnocchetti they serve here. Also the carrots. Also the whole menu.
Atmosphere: inviting beautiful space. Just feels really good being there.
Staff is pitch perfect. Service is some of the best I’ve ever had despite living in culinary meccas like New Orleans & nyc.

From the atmosphere to the food, this is hands-down one of the best spots in all of Denver (and Boulder). I’ve tried almost every item on the menu and a few favorites are: The brown butter oysters, carrots with whipped feta, lobster roll, and burrata. You can taste the quality and attention to detail in every dish. Incredible experience every time - You won’t be disappointed!

What can I say - the kitchen exceeded my expectations! I came here for a work dinner and was pleasantly surprised. As a picky eater, I went out of my comfort zone as my coworkers decided to order a plethora of appetizers. The burrata, carrots, and the gnocchetti (my favorite - a MUST try) were all amazing. The ambiance is great for a dinner date or outing with coworkers/friends. Personally enjoyed their music selection, yet wasn’t too loud so you could still enjoy your conversations. I recommend ending your night with the cheesecake, which was one of the best I have tried (and I am a big dessert person). Staff was quick, friendly, and attentive. Overall, great place to eat and I will definitely be back!

Very nice menu. Excellent service. They have a great big wooden bar with a surprisingly special corner seat. All the rooms are nice.

Had brunch here today and felt compelled to write a review because the food was so damned good. I’m usually a purist when it comes to Eggs Benedict, but today I saw The Kitchen’s version on the menu (pic) and decided to give it a try. It was amazing! They start with a crab cake that’s crunchy on the outside and soft on the inside with crab and avocado. Topped with a runny poached egg (pic). There’s a perfect Hollandaise sauce that’s got a bit of a bite (jalapeño) and a perfect finish (lime). I literally ate slowly because I wanted it to never end. The potatoes were pretty good, too; I’m just not a fan of potatoes in general.
I’d rate it a full five stars but their air conditioning was broken yet again and it was insanely hot in the restaurant. I can only imagine how hot it is for the kitchen workers and the servers.

It all begun with a search for a quality lobster roll. It ended here and I can say definitively speaking, it will continue to be a thing… FTW

The Kitchen has been a date night fave for my boyfriend and I! Last night we dined at the Denver location to celebrate our anniversary. Food and Drinks….incredible as always! I ordered the Bring May Flowers Cocktail - it was a lavender purple color garnished with lemon rind and a single large ice cube. It was so good I had 2! My bf chose the Peaches n Cream cocktail and he loved it!
We started off with the Carrots as an appetizer - gotta say, those carrots were almost better than our actual entrees. Definitely recommend! For our main dish we both went with the Tagliatelle. Absolutely delicious! And finally we ended our meal with the Cruffin - we had never tried a pastry hybrid of a croissant & a muffin, so of course, we had to. It was beautifully presented but far too sweet for our personal liking. Still give it all a 10/10! Side note: I’ve attached pictures of our stunning drinks and dishes!
On the service side, we were sadly a bit disappointed. Our waitress seemed miserable, like she would rather be doing anything else than working. Both my bf and I are former slaves of the service industry, so we know how it goes and it seemed like maybe she was just having a bad day…but she hardly spoke, never introduced herself. She kind of just robotically went through the motions of serving us. However, the manager working was the most delightful woman ever, she checked on us and every time she spoke to us, she just lit up - never got her name though! Not a bad experience, we’ll be returning for sure!

Arrived a little earlier for the reservation and the table was all set and ready. The server welcomed us and gave us time to look the menu over. The menu is pretty eclectic and includes pretty and delicious cocktails. Lots of Asian-influenced dishes, all prepared to order. The good tasted fresh and it was well seasoned. All delicious but the steak was not tender enough for my liking. Portions are on the small side and served family style. A great place to spend an evening with friends.

Chose The Kitchen for date night & it was super yummy. We had the mussels and carrots for our appetizer, then the roasted chicken & lamb for our main course. The only thing that was eh was the hominy in the lamb- it was dry and tasted old. But the customer service was superb & the quickness of getting all of are plates was great.
