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.
In a space that makes sly allusions to the fern bars of the 1970s, A5 Steakhouse doesn’t look like your typical chophouse. That’s because it isn’t. 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.

Or about the fact that you don't even have to order steak at all to have an indulgent, memorable meal here, with options like oysters, the beef tartare katsu sandwich and the French dip (which is available only at the bar). But what we really love about this restaurant, which joined the scene in 2021, is that it's downright fun, bringing fresh energy to the classic steakhouse concept that was once the darling of the Denver dining scene.
read moreThe Culinary Creative Group is a powerhouse on the Denver dining scene; it's behind such heavy-hitters as A5 Steakhouse, Señor Bear, Mister Oso and more. At Bar Dough, the group's Italian eatery in LoHi, chef Russell Stippich and his team excel at consistently delicious and creative fare, from pizza and pasta to small plates that highlight seasonal ingredients. The restaurant's most recent makeover brought in moody tones, making it a striking date-night destination, but it's equally impressive when you're sipping an Aperol spritz at the bar during happy hour or indulging in the weekend brunch.
