Great fine-dining spot for date night or a romantic bottle of wine, right on the Yampa River. Serves an excellent late night happy hour after 9pm (try the lobster mac & half-price wines!)

A hidden little gem with authentic Thai food and kooky yet cozy atmosphere. Try the shrimp spring rolls, green curry, or kwe tiaw. And beware, don't go over spice level 4!
