Sommelier (1782)

SETTING THE GOLD STANDARD FOR FINE DINING IN COLORADO

We exist to redefine fine dining in Colorado, elevating the classic American steakhouse into something more personal, connected, and memorable.

• Unreasonable Hospitality — Every detail matters, from the first welcome to the final farewell.
• Locally Rooted — We partner with Colorado farmers, ranchers, and artisans to source exceptional ingredients.
• Unwavering Excellence — Each plate is crafted with intention, passion, and precision.
• Deeply Personal — Every guest leaves feeling seen, heard, and cared for—as if dining at the home of an old friend.

In our restaurant, guests, vendors, and staff are all part of the same story: a shared belief that extraordinary dining is about more than food—it’s about belonging.

"Hospitality is a dialogue, not a monologue."
