Best Romantic Restaurants in Highlands

Thank our lucky stars we have finally tried Alma fonda fina!!! This place lived up to its expectations and more; The ambiance and decor had substance but weren't to overwhelming or distracting, it's a cozy vibe and everyone seems elated to be there. Now for the food... There were so many times throughout the night that it almost brought me to tears. It was SO good and the dishes were all humble mexican dishes with only slight additions that knocked it out of this world with flavor, there were also some dishes that i would typically not try or ask for certain things removed but that didn't even matter in this case it was all so good.The staff were amazing from the time we stepped in we were taken care of, our cup was never empty they knew when to check in on us or give recommendations. I would 1000% recommend this restaurant to anyone wanting to experience there own Anton ego momemt because that is what I experienced, this place brought me back to childhood; to an amazing nostalgic moment I can't wait to experience again.

El Five is a must-visit culinary gem in Denver! From the moment you step into the stunning rooftop space, you’re greeted with breathtaking panoramic views of the city and mountains, setting the stage for an unforgettable dining experience. The atmosphere is vibrant yet sophisticated, and the service is impeccable. The staff is knowledgeable, attentive, and clearly passionate about what they do. The food? Absolutely phenomenal. Their tapas-style menu offers a creative fusion of Mediterranean and Middle Eastern flavors, and every dish is a work of art. The lamb ribs and paella were standout favorites, bursting with bold, perfectly balanced flavors. And don’t miss their signature cocktails—they’re as delicious as they are beautifully crafted. Whether you’re celebrating a special occasion or just looking for a memorable night out, El Five delivers on every level. It’s the perfect spot for amazing food, unbeatable views, and a truly unique experience in Denver. Highly recommend!

Wow, that was an amazing meal! There wasn't any dish served less than perfect, and such unique flavors. The atmosphere was relaxed and parking was easy. We will definitely be back.

Christmas Eve pre-fix dinner was a delight for a family with some food sensitivities and varied palates. We ordered almost all of the special menu options, all of which were sumptuous with rich and mild spice (the duck confit) and comforting (the scallop risotto), with wines that paired beautifully and dessert that gave a seasonal touch to our truly special dinner. Duo is a neighborhood gem!

Had dirty martini while I waited for friends, was good, but the olives were jarred, bland… can up the game there Had a nice meal with friends and their son, a nice treat was provided for birthdays… the restaurant let us stay late which was very nice We ate and shared our meals… all delish. Also ordered gelato… pistachio (3up), olive oil (2up) (creams) and something like a fruit sorbet (papaya?) (3up) We had nice time together
