Vesta Dipping Grill

Fine fusion food in Denver

  • Dipping Sauces
  • World Grille Cusine
  • Funky Friendly & Unique

Vesta, the Goddess of the Hearth, is the most beautiful of Roman divinities, bright and pure like the flame that is her symbol. Her name derives from a Sanskrit root, "vas," which expresses the idea of "shining." Latins made Vesta a goddess who personified the earth and fire. She presided over the preparation of meals: Vesta was offered the first food and drink. At Vesta Dipping Grill, we have combined these themes to provide a unique dining experience. Vesta is simplicity, quality, comfort, life, art, scent, relaxation, taste, sound and fun.

Editorial Review for Vesta Dipping Grill – by Ephraim Mallery

In Short
The decor features waves of gold and copper swirling around giant tables. The contemporary design blends seamlessly with exposed brick walls and the sizzle of the open kitchen. Lamb loin is fall-off-the-bone tender, while a salad of arugula and shaved Romano with fig vinaigrette is simple but sensuous. Dipping entrees include smoked duck breast paired with mango poblano salsa, strips of calamari steak with Vietnamese chili-lime sauce, or ginger-seared tuna with jalapeno mustard.

5 Star Rating: Highly Recommended

This was one of the best places I have ever eaten! The atmosphere was dark and trendy. This is a great place for a first date, or any date really. You get to choose from 3 sauces to have with your dinner, and of course you can mix and match and try eachothers. The beef tenderloin was melt in your mouth delicious and our waitress recommended the venison which was even more amazing! We got dessert and I was so glad we did, it was one of the best ones I have ever had (we got the Mattys apples, the chocolate bar and the ice cream sandwiches). If you want to try something different and fantastic, check this place out!

Pros: Excellent desserts

Cons: No real parking

5 Star Rating: Highly Recommended
