Rise Pies - Cherry Creek Mall

We get it, it's mall pizza. Our day date expectations shouldn't be high. But come on it's Cherry Creek Mall and the renovations have been endless the last 2 years while these new restaurants & RH moved in so we thought surely it's worth a go. SO disappointed in Rise Pies. There was no wait and only a few patrons when we arrived yet we waited, and waited, and waited to get our order in and for it to be made. The staff was clearly beyond undertrained and it made for a painful, hungry experience. The Magherita & Hawaiian Shirt Day weren't worth the wait. Two thumbs down.

Torchy's - Broadway

They should rename Torchy's the Taco Mecca. Because it is a freaking taco Mecca. The Green Chili Queso followed by the Trailerpark, Dirty Sanchez, Baja Shrimp and Crossroads tacos made our day. The Street Corn will rock your face. Need a drink? They have a full service bar. The perfect place to get in & out in a hurry or hang for hours stuffing your face.

Blue Island Oyster Bar - Cherry Creek

We're in love with the vibe and decor of Blue Island and their delicious menu sealed the deal to be one of our new favorite places. If you're there for lunch try the Lobster Salad  or ask if the Lobster Grilled Cheese is a daily special, it's amazing. If it's dinner you're after, the Fried New England Surf Clams and Steamed PEI Mussels (try them with the coconut curry broth) are out of this world. Need a drink? The Bloody No. 9 and Signature martini will set you straight.

Mr. Kim Korean BBQ - Mississippi Ave

Mr. Kim's is legit and delicious. We went all in with the Beef Combo BBQ (we chose double short ribs & brisket) and couldn't have been happier with absolutely everything. The sides are fresh, numerous and authentic. The sauces are divine with perfect service throughout. Need something? Hit your call button, LOVE. Their kimchi is the bees knees. BONUS: Ocean Market is next-door.

maria empanada - S Broadway

We love the hell out of some empanadas and Maria's is our new Denver winner. The classic beef or chicken are crazy good and even a meat lover will swoon for their corn or mushroom empanadas. If they're packed, you can grab a To Go order in minutes. Divine. BONUS: Their salsas kick ass.

Harman's - Cherry Creek

The whole local, foraged, sustainable thing is a little bit overplayed for us as a restaurant theme lately (we're hoping it becomes the norm not the marketing trend sooner than later) but we happened into Harman's unexpectedly and weren't disappointed.  It was welcoming and lively but not overcrowded and they shake up a perfect dirty martini. The brussel sprout starter had a dipping sauce with enough kick to make yet another brussel sprout app worth trying. Husband's scallop special was delicious and the Phat Thai Fried Chicken was perfectly seasoned. Our server couldn't have been sweeter or more on point. BONUS: We brought home the most delicious apple cake, try it.
