American Restaurant · Curtis Park · 44 tips and reviews
Renee Persons: So good! Diver scallops were delicious, however, on the rather small side BUT delis' My friend got the tandoori dish (chx) and OMG!
Benjamin Blackmer: Best place in Denver so far. Tasting menu is a steal at $75 for two people. Bacon and egg is a highlight. Tandoori chicken is amazing.
Denver Westword: Set on a dark stretch that looks deserted even though it isn't, the Populist has been nudging diners to venture farther up Larimer Street since it opened in November. Read more.
Jay Robert: This place has a very wide range of unique items on its menu. The chicken and waffles are amazing , tandoori chicken , amazing. BBQ (especially the ribs) and some of the best burgers I've ever had.
