Anchored between Denver and Boulder, Westminster captures the energy of the front range—mountain sunsets, family neighborhoods, and an adventurous local palate eager for both comfort food and global influences.
Yak & Yeti Restaurant and Brewpub
An area legend, Yak & Yeti fuses Himalayan flavors and award-winning craft beers in a warm, bustling space.
The lunch buffet and dinner menu overflow with chicken tikka masala, chana saag, rich lamb curry, and garlic naan baked fresh in the tandoor.
The brewpub, with its special Himalayan IPA and mango ale, draws beer nerds and foodies alike.
Families gather, sharing steaming plates and sampling new brews, while the wood-paneled dining room hums with laughter.
Kachina Southwestern Grill
Inside the Westin, Kachina serves up inventive southwestern fare with flare: duck posole, bison tamales, chile-glazed salmon, and appetizers like black bean empanadas.
The cocktail menu highlights prickly pear margaritas and mezcal old fashioneds, and the atmosphere strikes a perfect balance between business-lunch cool and date-night chic.
Weekend brunch is an event, with green chile biscuits and spicy Bloody Marys ruling the day.
Sushi Uokura
Westminster’s sushi standout draws crowds not just from the city but from all over the northwest metro area.
Elegant, fresh nigiri, creative specialty rolls, and top-notch tempura anchor the polished yet welcoming dining room.
The chefs are friendly, the sake list is deep, and the presentation (edible flowers, sculpted ginger) adds a special occasion vibe at any meal.
Slater’s 50/50
For burger fans, Slater’s pushes the envelope: half-beef, half-bacon patties, towering build-your-own creations, and menu specials like the “Best Damn Bacon Cheeseburger” and bacon mac ‘n’ cheese balls.
Milkshakes and local beers round out the experience, and the fun, boisterous interior makes Slater’s a hit with postgame crowds and families.
Pho Duy
With the Front Range’s Vietnamese scene ever on the rise, Pho Duy stands out for aromatic, deeply savory broth, brisket and rare steak pho, and crisp egg rolls.
Service is swift, the dining room is always bustling, and the mix of local students, working families, and retirees proves the universal appeal of good soup.
