Review by Tressa Bernhard

September 02, 2024

American Elm is a cozy gem in Denver! 🌟 We celebrated a late Valentine's, and our experience was magical. Seated in a heated greenhouse, we enjoyed the Pandan Chi Chi cocktail - an absolute delight, like a tropical dream!

The Duck Ragu Pappardelle was rich and savory, while the Crispy Pork Belly was tender, perfectly complemented by seasonal fruit.

For dessert, the Raspberry Panna Cotta was light and refreshing.

Drew, our attentive server, made our night even more special. This spot is a perfect choice for date nights or special occasions! 🍽️❤️
