Chef Rodney Smith Jr. recently joined our Boulder team and we’re excited to unveil his reimagined menus!

For Rodney, making food is more than a job; it’s telling a story. Every dish is built to hit all the senses at once, balancing familiarity with discovery. His approach is collaborative, shaped by the people in his kitchen and the energy of the dining room, but always guided by a singular goal: giving guests an experience they will remember long after the meal is over.

Peruse the new menus and make your reservation at the link in our bio.
