Denver Restaurant Week is here from April 23-May 2! In this post, the staff at EscapeWorks would like to tell you about some of our favorite Restaurant Week deals, as well some of our other favorite places to eat in our lovely town. Try one of these places the next time you go out, whether or not you’re looking to escape a room!
Restaurant Week Offers
Blue Island Oyster Bar + Seafood (Kyle’s Pick)
Our favorite for only $35 per person: Smoked Trout Dip w/Red Onion Marmalade, House-Fried Yukon Potato Chips
Kyle’s got a great deal of kind stories about BIOB’s staff, and their food looks delicious as well! This may get an honorary award for longest RW deal on this post- almost every item on the menu is specially crafted!
Little India (Juan’s favorite)
RW deal: For $25 per person, you receive one appetizer/soup/salad, one entrée, one order of rice, one order of naan bread, and a bottle of wine.
While the Champa Street location isn’t listed on the Restaurant Week site, we’d be remiss if we didn’t include Little India! Their Tikka Masala is one of the best in Denver, and it’s convenient to boot.
Potato Masala Dosa w/Crispy Lentil Crepe, Squash, Peas, Apricots, Sambar Potato, Tamarind Date & Coconut Mint Chutneys
Cherry Hand Pie w/Cherry and Cream Cheese Filling, Candied Ginger Sugar
Linger is a Denver restaurant that respects its history, as it used to be a mortuary. It’s a great place to visit if you’d like a piece of history in your meal! I had to mention Linger on this list after doing some research on our own building… More on that in the next blog post!
I used to make restaurant deliveries across Denver, and I just had to add El Five to the list. While they’re a gorgeous upscale eatery, they remain as kind as any other. The confidence in their cooking is outclassed only by their friendly staff!
Other Staff Picks
Although these eateries have no Restaurant Week offers, they’re close by and hold a special place in our heart. Scroll down for our staff favorites!
What the Pho (Sunny’s Pick)
Our staff has consistently ordered from What the Pho whenever we needed a big meal quick n’ easy. What the Pho holds nothing back, and always fills their bowls to the brim. Each bowl comes with a wide variety of ingredients on the side, offering exactly what you and your pho-freaky friends could ask for.
Menya Noodle Bar (Claire’s Pick)
In the same vein as What the Pho, Menya Noodle Bar is one of the best options for Asian meals, specifically Ramen or Poke. Another great option for quick and easy food during a shopping spree on 16th street!
Tea Cloud (Tobi’s Pick)
Not to create any competition between the two poke places near EW, but Tea Cloud is another great option! If you’d like to splurge and pick up a boba tea while on your next poke kick, we’d definitely suggest Tea Cloud. Be sure to check out their website for some interesting boba options- I’m looking at that brown sugar and chocolate one!
Well, I hope at least one of these options on our list interests you. Go out and try something new- let’s be honest, you probably need an excuse to go out and relax! And while you’re out, why not stop by EscapeWorks and have some fun?
Came with some friends & their niece for her birthday & can say we had a fantastic time!! It was our first escape room & we did the Egyptian tomb. Jake was our guide & he was so awesome. We probably stressed Jake out cause of how dramatic we were being but he made it a fun experience & was super helpful. Will definitely be coming back to try the other rooms!!!

My kid and I were in town killing time before an airplane ride. We did the vampire room and It was difficult and we didn't finish by only one puzzle. When they showed us the next puzzle - we would of never gotten it
The staff was friendly , helpful and patient. Would recommend to anyone in Denver.
I should add we were a walk in and they were extremely accommodating

Organized a team building event at EscapeWorks. We all had a ton of fun and the staff was friendly and helpful. The props were well maintained and the puzzles were moderately difficult. We did the pirate themed escape room and we did successfully escape from the pirate ship with the loot 😄

Such a fun time. Our gamemaster, Owen, set us up for success and let us know the overall ground rules of the room and kept us moving when we were obviously stuck on a step. The props were all well done and perfect for the theme.
