Summer 2008 Private Dining Menu

Thank you for your interest in Restaurant Kevin Taylor for your special event.

Simply the best…Denver’s only restaurant to receive both Mobile Travel Guide’s Four-
Star and AAA’s Four-Diamond Awards annually since 1999. This intimate and elegant
restaurant features contemporary French cuisine that reflects the changing seasons with an
emphasis on the simplicity of fine ingredients.

Using only the freshest ingredients, Kevin Taylor and executive chef BJ Wojtowicz create
food of elegant substance, walking delicate lines between fusion and French, the American
Southwest and the Asian Rim.
