From being awarded Michelin six times, to A5 being named the #1 Steakhouse in America, to Magna Kainan being featured on Bon Appétit’s list of most anticipated openings, we’re proud that our chefs, teams, and their accomplishments have been recognized by some of the world’s most prestigious publications.
While the interior’s coolly handsome, the patio of Bar Amorina, an Italian-inspired hot spot, is shaping up as the place to see and be seen this summer, with the sidewalk serving as a veritable runway for Cherry Creek’s fashion plates.

While the menu’s still centered on steaks, they’re surrounded by starters, sides, and sauces that showcase the kitchen’s creativity (and penchant for Asian cuisine): The beef tartare katsu sando is a cult favorite, as is the bacon-kimchi fried rice, while nuoc cham hollandaise and kanzuri, a Japanese black garlic–chili sauce, will spoil anyone for bordelaise and béarnaise.
