The vibrant spirit of the Mexican Riviera in Cherry Creek
THE RESTAURANT LEANS into a relaxed, resort-style atmosphere, with a design that mixes warm materials and lush greenery to create a space that feels more like an escape than a typical night out in Denver. It’s energetic without being over the top—somewhere that works just as well for a casual dinner as it does for a group gathering.
On the menu, Ash & Agave focuses on wood-fired cooking, with a selection of meats, seafood, and shareable plates. Mains include beef short rib barbacoa and Pacific sea bass a la Veracruz, while tacos and smaller dishes round out the offerings. Seafood also plays a central role, sourced in part from the group’s own oyster farm, giving the menu a fresh, coastal throughline.
The bar program follows suit, built around tequila and mezcal, with a mix of cocktails and curated agave flights. It’s a natural extension of the food menu, rather than an afterthought, and clearly meant to be part of the overall experience.
Overall, Ash & Agave lands somewhere between polished and approachable. It’s not trying to reinvent the category, but it does bring a cohesive point of view—one that blends wood-fired cooking, seafood, and agave spirits into a setting that feels transportive without losing its footing in Cherry Creek.
