Tips:

In the back, a semi-private area hosts three tables. A modern, cozy lounge in front makes a great spot for a drink.
There's a small parking lot in the back of the restaurant.
Got the munchies? A late-night menu satisfies cravings after the kitchen closes.

From OpenTable:

Zengo is a sophisticated blend of Latin-Asian styles and flavors. Chef Richard Sandoval, whose accolades include Bon Appétit Restaurateur of the Year and Mexico’s Toque d’Oro, artfully spins Latin-Asian ingredients into colorful, beautifully balanced dishes designed for sharing. The beverage menu features innovative, hand-muddled cocktails as well as an extensive selection of wines, sakes and tequilas. The vibrant décor fuses traditional and contemporary tastes, the perfect setting to sample Zengo’s acclaimed cuisine. For a relaxed yet upbeat afternoon, sip our signature cocktails on our outdoor patio.
“Zengo is by far the best restaurant in Denver, maybe even the country.”

“…the coolest looking eatery in the west, it’s certainly unlike any other restaurant in Denver”

Latin-Asian Fusion Nirvana

This place is delicious! One of my favorites! This restaurant specializes in “small plates” that have the style of Latin-Asian fusion. I’ve had most of the things on the menu and all are delicious—of course there are a few standouts! The tuna tacos can not be beat—they are incredible. Also great are the chicken empanadas. The cod is marinated in a miso-sauce and melts in your mouth. There is also a pork dish with a corn salsa that is very tasty! This is a rather noisy place on a busy night and tables are small—which is the downside. But it is energetic and the waitstaff is quite good. The food is so fabulous! You need to try it!
