About VISIT DENVER's Denver Restaurant Week

Hero image

For two decades, VISIT DENVER's Denver Restaurant Week has been serving up a much-anticipated experience for locals and visitors alike to celebrate the city’s thriving culinary scene with restaurants now helmed by Michelin-starred and James Beard Award-winning chefs.

Back for our 21st year!

It’s the perfect chance to try out new spots where restaurants offer special menus over the 10-day, two-weekend format. You’ll find every type of cuisine such as Colorado grass-fed beef and lamb, international fusions, fresh seafood that’s flown in daily, and innovative vegetarian options, spiced up with local ingredients like the famous green chile.

Price Points

There are four price points this year (with both to-go and in-person options): $25, $35, $45 and $55 for multi-course meals. The tiered pricing structure allows restaurants to provide great deals for diners and a robust representation of Denver’s increasingly renowned culinary offerings.

VISIT DENVER’s program was originally created to showcase the city’s dining scene to local residents over a traditionally slow time of year for the restaurant industry. In its inaugural year, the program had 83 participating restaurants. In 2024, more than 250 restaurants signed up.

Before the start of Denver Restaurant Week, watch this space for the official menu launch. You’ll get to preview the restaurant offerings and strategize accordingly.

Diners are encouraged to make a reservation, try some earlier or later seatings or even Monday, Tuesday or Wednesday options. It’s also important to remember to cancel any reservations you don’t plan on using so other diners can use it. The delicious menus these restaurants have prepared are also great deals. Be sure to tip your servers generously.
