When it comes to fine dining in Denver, there are plenty of posh and delicious choices to choose from with plenty of unforgettable ambiance to go around. That being said, the iconic Columbine Steak House & Lounge may get overlooked because of its unsuspecting storefront, but what the timeless restaurant lacks in frills it makes up for in so many other ways:

Located at 300 Federal Blvd. in Denver, Columbine Steak House & Lounge is a Denver institution that has been serving their famous steak dinners since 1961.

What makes this steak house a must-visit? For starters, you order your steak at the counter and watch the two cooks in the back grill it as rare or as well done as you like it.

After it’s made to order, it is time to pay at the register (most steak dinners cost well under $20), find your seat, and enjoy every juicy bite of your delicious meal.
