The food was perfection, the beverages were amazing, the playlist was skillfully curated, and the people were delightful. The sustainability concept is an important ethical orientation and very well narrated, and this commitment enhanced rather than compromised the overall quality and execution. Beyond all expectations!!

The Wolf's Tailor

This journey began in defense of the maker, those that bring to light from darkness, an idea. Our inspiration comes from memory, of travels we’ve taken - it is the thread that helps us bind our creation. Wolf’s is the laboratory where inspiration turns to creation, creation is stitched into a form that when examined takes guests on the creators' journey of exploration. But the quest to create comes not for the supplication of an audience, but for the continual introspective pursuit of pushing the boundaries of what we know as possible.

We have eaten at many Michelin Green star restaurants. We both agree this one the best dining experience of them all. We felt lucky to have such a special chef, staff, and meal prepared for us. They accommodated our dietary needs. The staff moved us to another table to make us more comfortable without a request. They truly thought of every detail. Can’t want for their summer menu. 5+💯

First, I love the energy of the staff -- they seemed happy to be there, and each was so knowledgeable about all facets of the food. The general manager helped us find a very good bottle to enjoy with our food (I liked the wine so much I bought half a dozen bottles when I got back home to Texas). From the beginning, our food was so good, beginning with the olives and the bread. The bread! Everyone at the table uttered a soft moan when eating the bread. The desserts also sang, including the olive oil ice cream and the smoky vanilla ice cream. Many other highlights. Well done, Basta!

This was my first time at Travenetta, and I can't say enough positive things about our fabulous experience last night! If you read nothing else, just book the reservation! The experience starts with being greeted by a welcoming smile and seeing the restaurant for the first time. The seating is perfect; we could watch all the goings-on in downtown Denver. Our waiter (Freddy!) was the best! His recommendations were spot on. This is an understatement; the food is fantastic. So many tastes that were unexpected, new, and delicious! It was the perfect way to celebrate my son's 22nd birthday. Thank you for the great experience! We will be back!!
