What they’re saying

“We have had opportunities to expand in Denver, but nothing ever felt quite right. We never wanted to force the next step. This opportunity actually came from one of our regular guests at glo. He asked if we'd ever considered Boulder, and the moment we saw his space, we could feel the potential. Bringing our story back to the city where we met feels incredibly natural, and we're honored to soon be a part of Boulder's incredible restaurant scene as we create something new for the community.”
