It wasn’t a big week for openings (or closings, for that matter), but the scene saw a few welcome developments.
For starters, we were happy to see that Jack’s Modern Steakhouse in Lone Tree is not only open, but has added the Blind Tiger lounge to the ground floor of the two-story establishment. After the brand-new steakhouse was forced to close in January following an electrical fire, the Jack’s team used the rebuilding time to rethink its plans for the damaged space. The result was a New Orleans-inspired, walk-in-only jazz speakeasy, with a drinks menu entirely exclusive to the space and not available to steakhouse diners upstairs.
Also added to the dining landscape was a fourth installment of the California fire-grilled chicken chain El Pollo Loco, this one in Lakewood. Opening in the same shopping complex as the legendary Casa Bonita may seem a little cheeky, but at least you don’t need reservations to get your fix.
