This accolade highlights both restaurants' exceptional wine programs and culinary excellence, reaffirming their positions as top dining destinations in Black Hawk and the greater Denver area.
Bistro Mariposa: A culinary adventure like no other in Black Hawk
Located in Monarch Casino’s pre-expansion buffet space, there’s nothing old about Bistro Mariposa. If you’ve never experienced a meal there, the fusion of modern Latin and Mexican cuisine dished up by its chefs is as vibrant and exciting as the post-renovation dining room.
The restaurant’s menu features standout dishes like butter-poached lobster tacos and bone-in ribeye with chimichurri, both meticulously crafted to excite the palate. Complementing these flavors is a curated selection of high-end tequilas, mezcals, and Colorado craft beer.
Monarch Chophouse: A Legacy of Excellence
For the second year in a row, Monarch Chophouse has received this honor, a testament to its consistent dedication to culinary and vinous excellence. Known for its 28-day-aged, USDA prime cuts of beef, fresh seafood, and Colorado lamb, Monarch Chophouse offers a dining experience marked by elegance and sophistication—no detail is ever too small. This is in addition to its extensive wine list, which boasts more than 330 labels.
Recognition and Celebration
The Wine Spectator Award of Excellence recognizes restaurants that offer well-curated selections of quality wine producers that align with the menu in both price and style. This recognition underscores Bistro Mariposa and Monarch Chophouse’s unwavering commitment to providing exceptional dining experiences through their outstanding wine programs and culinary artistry.
