I actually was at 1515 to shoot a video for Citysearch but Chris, the chef was kind enough to prepare a couple of the signature dishes just for me to sample. WOW! Very tasty and exceptionally well prepared.

Gene, the owner and certified wine expert, is passionate about providing a great place for people who want a first class dining experience with the compliment of the perfect wine. Their wine “loft” in the dining area is amazing but is only the front for their wine cellars which provide patrons with a choice of over 400 different wines.

Samuel, the manager, is very focused on keeping things moving smoothly and on ensuring a quality dining experience as well. The attitude of all the servers were a testament to the passion for meeting your needs.

Chris Laramie, the executive chef, has a pedigree of training and apprenticeship which is only dwarfed by his passion for putting quality food, cooked perfectly in front of you. He emphasizes there is no signature dish but instead a unique theme of taking French techniques and applying them to all kinds of local and traditional ingredients to provide a one-of-a-kind dining experience.

They use a specialized cooking method known as sous vide which ensures perfect, and consistent cooking every time and are the only restaurant in Colorado approved by the Health Department to be using the method.

Also, they’ve taken using local and fresh ingredients to a whole new level. This year they have created a roof garden and are growing their own produce. Literally, many of the ingredients are not only organically grown, but come from the roof, to the kitchen, to your plate within a matter of hours.

I recommend it. Awesome place. Great food. Great atmosphere.
