Rank 336. The Delorean
Vintage Cocktail Bar
Siouxsie and the Banshees memorabilia shares wall space with He-Man tiki mugs at this 1980s-themed cocktail bar on South Broadway. Lava lamps, vintage arcade games, and old music videos running on mounted TVs make it the kind of place where you stop checking the time entirely, which is probably the point. Pizza rolls show up on the snack menu, as they should. The crowd dresses accordingly, or wishes they had.

Rank 422. TOKIO
Japanese Noodle Shop
The broths here spend serious time extracting collagen and fat from pork and chicken, and you can taste the commitment. Tokio is a ramen shop that also does sushi and small plates, but the noodle bowls are the main event. The chef trained in Japan specifically for this, and the menu runs from traditional to a cream-and-cheese Cremoso Diablo that sounds dubious until it doesn't. Westword has named it Denver's top ramen two years running.

Rank 463. Fortune Nong Jia Le
Shanghainese
The full bar sets Fortune Nong Jia Le apart from its Wash Park sibling, though the kitchen stays on the same page: dumplings, Shanghainese noodles, and fried rice alongside heartier plates like crispy half duck in soy reduction and pork belly with potatoes. It's a casual Chinese restaurant that trends slightly more polished than most in its orbit, the kind of place where the menu reads like someone's grandmother is actually cooking.

Little India is a casual Indian restaurant on East 6th Avenue that has fed Denver since before anyone worried about Y2K, and it now stays open around the clock for anyone with a lamb vindaloo emergency at four in the morning. Lunch is when the buffet runs, which means saag, dal makhani, korma, and tandoori chicken sit a few steps away and nobody has to choose between the butter chicken and the biryani. The Infatuation listed it among Denver's lunch spots.
