303-573-6100 | | | | | Description: LODO. Set in a historic building and designed with Mission-style elements, Dixons regularly wins "Best of Denver" awards for breakfast, margaritas, and Bloody Marys. Highlights of the morning menu include Southwestern-style concoctions like eggs Mazatlan (with guacamole and green chiles in a tortilla) and the awesome Bandito Special (eggs, cheese, tortilla chips, cilantro, jalapenos, and tomatoes). During afternoons and evenings, the menu switches to sandwiches, tacos, burgers, and steaks, and the bar stays lively until late at night. There's a fun kids' menu too, so bring the whole family! In addition, a terrific patio offers superb people-watching and is a good place to share a bottle of wine later in the day.
