No trip to New Orleans would be complete without trying char grilled oysters…you can eat dozens of them! If you live in Denver, the only thing better than taking a vacation to The Big Easy, is stopping in to Angelo’s Taverna. While it is not at all a southern restaurant, the food sure is comforting, and the char grilled oysters are addictive! Choose from Chipotle Bourbon Butter, Bacon and Gorgonzola, the Original (garlic, butter, pecorino, and herbs), or try the daily special oyster. You can even mix and match a platter!

With a relaxed, Italian-like home atmosphere, this restaurant and bar may not be the farm-to-table, hipster location that Denver is known for, but it just may be some of the best reasonably priced Italian food that The Mile High City has to offer. Stop in and grab a seat at the bar for a quick drink and bite to eat while you watch television or bring your family and friends and enjoy a carb-loading feast! Come just for the oysters, stay for the pasta and Chianti!
