It's easy to get lost among the sprawling shopping centers, like Park Meadows, surrounding Lone Tree. Though the area is heavy on almost any commercial establishment you could imagine—from the state's lone IKEA to a Nordstrom wedding suite—shoppers have to break for a meal sometime. From wood-fired pizza at Bonanno Brothers to modern Mexican at La Sandia, here are seven restaurant picks near Park Meadows and Lone Tree.
Just up the road from Park Meadows, Street Kitchen celebrates the tradition of street food vendors across Asia, exploring the cuisine of Malaysia, China, Japan, Vietnam and Thailand. Chef-owner Mary Nguyen, who also operates P17 and Olive & Finch, puts a contemporary spin on dishes like crab rangoons, Chinese sticky ribs and Penang curry.
Baca, named for a prominent Colorado family of ranchers and traders with Castilian Spanish heritage, stakes its claim on fusion Colorado cuisine. Look for dishes such as green chile corn chowder, Rocky Mountain rainbow trout and a Colorado cassoulet with game sausage, brisket, duck and foie gras.
Part of Richard Sandoval’s restaurant empire, La Sandia at Park Meadows focuses on modern Mexican fare. Tequila options are more than plentiful—with more than 100 selections—and happy hour runs daily from 4 p.m. to close in the bar and lounge.
Local restaurateur Frank Bonanno is behind this pizzeria, which boasts a two-ton, wood-fire brick oven imported from Florence, Italy. Hallmarks of the menu include house-made burrata cheese, meatball sliders and a variety of panini and pizzas, from margherita to carbonara. Gluten-free pizza crust is also available for $4.
In addition to an array of Chinese and Thai dishes, John Holly’s also boasts a full sushi bar. The sushi roll menu features standards like a dragon roll, as well as a namesake roll that includes white fish, salmon, tuna, crab and avocado wrapped in seaweed, lightly fried and topped with house sauce.
This contemporary American eatery is housed in the Denver Marriott South, and is open for three meals daily. The dinner menu is complemented by an extensive wine list, including a variety of wine flights featuring three 2-ounce pours.
Tucked into a shopping center near SuperTarget, Via Baci is a casual Italian eatery that serves up items like Neapolitan-style pizza, pasta and roasted rosemary chicken. On Tuesdays and Thursday select wine bottles are available for 40 percent off.
