Part of Farow, Pie Dog Pizza & Baa Hachi

We believe in working with the absolute best ingredients and treating them with the utmost care. All food has a season in which it is at it best and brightest. Each ingredient we cook with is completely seasonal and grown or raised as close to the restaurant as we can get it. Because of this, our menu will be forever changing as things come and go out of season. We honor this philosophy year round and strive to support our local community. All of our food is crafted from scratch, in the restaurant and sourced locally, with an eye on sustainability. If we can't get it in Colorado, we have partnered with other artisans and small companies who care about the product they are producing, harvesting or raising. We carry these philosophies over to our beverage program as well with an organic/biodynamic wine list and an ever rotating seasonal cocktail menu.
