Acova is writing the next chapter of one of Denver’s great neighborhoods. An iconic locale in a historic district, Acova builds on the rich story of “The Northside” (now known as LoHi) by breathing new life into an address with soul. Even its name pays homage to its South Broadway sibling restaurant The Hornet, while tipping a cap to its storied Italian predecessor Patsy’s.

The place you go for that after work cocktail, or your go to date spot, whether it’s your first or 50th date. The place you get the group together on a Saturday night, and where you recover together on a Sunday morning. Acova is the next Highlands institution, bearing vintage flair and contemporary charm that threads the past into the future. Acova brings you back time and again because you are part of this story now, and Acova is part of yours.

• Mexican • Highlands
Booked 9 times today
Our menu is inspired by the Mexican regions of Yucatán, Oaxaca, and Veracruz. We strive to respect the influences and traditions of these diverse cultures to bring you food that is uniquely El Jefe. We believe in doing things the right way. Not because it’s trendy or cool, but because it’s right. We change our menu with the grow season, supporting our neighbors and the terroir of Colorado. We are not your average Mexican joint, rather a reflection of our environment and beliefs. We hand make our tortillas every day. All of our pork comes from one whole hog. Our chefs breakdown the whole animal, for chorizo, appetizers, stocks, soups, and entrees. Nothing is wasted. We do this out of respect for the animal and for the people who raised them for us. Anything we can produce in our kitchen is done by us, with love. No frills, just good food. We do an amazing brunch on the weekends, and by default or menu is nearly 100% gluten free.

    We went here once before for restaurant week and enjoyed our meals. I’m a vegan and there’s really not much on the menu without animal products, but they accommodated me happily last time so we decided to come again. We made a reservation for a bar area high top, but got sat at a low table in the general dining area which was fine but the hostess didn’t ask us which was odd as someone who has worked in a lot of restaurants and done hosting. They were clearly short-staffed, so everything was a bit of a wait which again is fine and understandable as someone who has worked in restaurants and knows it happens. I had to modify me entree to make it vegan but the server said there would be an upcharge which is understandable, but it was $5 for a few pieces of mushrooms to be added to a penne pasta that I had to remove cheese from. I asked for mushrooms assuming it would be easier and cheaper than adding the chick’n or plant-based burger but the chickn up charge would’ve been less. For all of our waiting (to be seated, to be greeted, to get our check, to have our check paid), it would’ve been nice to have at least not been charged so much for something I know shouldn’t cost that much. It is a nice place though overall and we enjoyed our food and beers. It is dog-friendly on the patios too and a very cool space. Overall, I would still recommend this place. Just wish there were more vegan options or ways to substitute without up charges.
