INDIA'S Restaurant, Denver

Holding court as Denver’s oldest and most critically acclaimed Indian restaurant, the dining room is built for lingering over a meal in a soothing, relaxed setting. The expansive menu reaches beyond typical regional fare into North Eastern Indian specialties, with staples like chicken tikka masala served alongside mango lassi, premium beers, and teas. For lunch, a Monday through Saturday buffet allows diners to sample an array of less familiar dishes at an easy pace.
