Was کاظم مصباح at Acorn a mag?
Service was great and all staff were knowledgeable. Place was already busy when they opened for lunch. The Reuben was delicious with perfect texture contrast and a hint of oak in the pastrami. Burger was OK. Again the hint of oak from the wood fired grill was great but mine was not seasoned thoroughly. Would love to dry their dinner. View all feedback.
What Діана Антоненко dislikes about Acorn:
extremely slow service. the staff was nice, but we had to wait for every inspection of the service. the portions of the food were small. the aged steak is overpriced. they speak the steak, but it is nothing special, especially for the price. View all feedback.
First and foremost we love Acorn's amazing food and atmosphere. But we have been especially impressed with The management team at Acorn. My fiancé and I have had many changes to our wedding, and we had planned on having our rehearsal dinner at Acorn. They have been more than supportive and flexible. We ultimately had to cancel our rehearsal dinner and Acorn was so great to work with and really helped make such a challenging time as easy as they could for us. Thank you Acorn!
Came to Denver for fun last weekend, and this was our splurge meal for the trip. I loved the area that Acorn was in part of a larger building and collective think stylish coffee shops and small vendors. We were able to get a same day (albeit, late) reservation for 8:45pm on a Friday evening. We were seated quickly but service was very slow. Maybe 10 15 minutes in between each check in, like our order of drinks and then our order of food. With the pace aside, we really enjoyed our meal. Presentation is gorgeous and the dishes were very tasty. Here 's what we ordered for 2 people to share: Kale Apple Salad Wagyu Beef Tartare (a must get) Mussels Clams (and extra bread for dipping) Jimmy Red Grits Pistachio Diplomat for dessert Kale Apple salad was chopped finely and seasoned very well. Odd and tough chewy bits were removed, and each thin sliver was coated in an even layer of tart vinaigrette. Definitely pricey for such a simple and petite salad, but this was one of my favorite dishes because it was light and straightforward. Now, my favorite dish, was definitely the Wagyu Tartare. Stunning presentation, very fresh meat, and salty and tasty. Mussels and Clams were good, I feel like this is always such a hit or miss at restaurants, and I would say it 's prepared pretty well here. Broth was savory and we followed our server 's recommendation for ordering an extra plate of bread to dip. The toasty bread actually stood out to me the most our server explained that the pieces are swiped with saffron. Jimmy red grits came in an unassuming small bowl of what looked like gravy. Hardly any texture, flat top, no curb appeal. But the flavor was so rich and decadent. Pretty cheesy and honestly made my stomach hurt it 's a heavy one. Pistachio dessert really was not a fan of this one. It 's a lemon cake made with rose water that was a bit too floral and nauseatingly sweet for my taste. Dunked in a thick green pistachio cream, cake underneath was slightly stale and crummy. I would recommend trying a different dessert. All in all, a bit pricey (cocktails are around the $16 range), but a fun experience. We were there for almost 2 hours. Love the decor and the music.
Oh man, some of the best food we had during our visit to Denver!! And we were sober enough to remember it. Acorn is located in a very cool food hall. We made reservations and got seated right away. We ordered a bunch of things to share. A bottle of wine, beef tartare, golden rice, mussels and clams, half roasted chicken, half aged dry duck, the ribeye steak, and the pistachio dessert. Wow! The food was good. My favorites were the mussels and clams, duck and steak. The duck was delicious- they cook it two ways, roasted and one was like crispy fried. The steak was cooked to perfection, nicely seasoned. A place I definitely recommend and would come back if I'm in the area. Food was on another level.
I visited Acorn during my last business trip out in Denver. We ended up going there for lunch and dinner during my visit. It's located in the center of an interesting complex, The Source and It's designed in a way that in the summertime you can sit outside and enjoy the breeze. We loved the hip vibe of the refurbished iron foundry, the music and warm atmosphere. Our waiter was attentive, very responsive about food allergies and helpful in answering questions about the menu and drinks. The dishes we had were all fantastic. The kale and apple salad and pimento cheese appetizer are very tasty and I highly recommend both. They also partner with Reunion bakery from the complex and had their sourdough for appetizer. it was really good. I also tried the burger and fries and it did not disappoint. The menu is seasonal and the flavors reflect the season and offer a variety if you want to try this multiple times throughout the year. We really enjoyed this, and would definitely be back if in the Denver area again!
Acorn is located in the marketplace of The Source. Hidden away amongst other businesses, this place is definitely a gem. We ordered the Pork Rinds with Pimento Cheese, Heirloom Blue Cornbread, Wagyu Beef Tartare, Red Beets, Mussels Clams, and Half Dry Aged Duck. I thought everything was quite good. The only dish I didn't love was the Mussels Clams. I didn't enjoy the tangy broth. I prefer a more umami flavor with Mussels and Clams. The Pork Rinds were yummy and crispy. The pimento cheese was the perfect dip for them. The Heirloom Blue Cornbread was fabulous with the honey butter it came with. The Wagyu Beef Tartare was sooo yummy. Such a flavor explosion! It had bright notes of citrus that rounded out the whole dish. The texture of the dish was also spot on. The Red Beets were interesting because they were warm! Super unexpected but I loved the tenderness of the beets and the flavor as well. I thought the duck was a little on the overcooked side because it was a bit chewy for my taste but I think because this protein is so lean, it's easy to overcook. All of the dishes were beautiful. I felt like I was eating out of a secret garden! They have some real artists back there in the kitchen. We also enjoyed the pistachio dessert. YUM. It had a super yummy cake underneath this light and fluffy whipped topping. Definitely recommend coming here and trying all the things! You will not be disappointed!
