Fodor's Expert Review The Squeaky Bean

The original location was a tiny storefront in the Highland, but it was obvious early on that the popular Bean, with herbs and produce from its own gardens and a deceptively simple yet inventive menu, was going to grow. Now situated in the historic Saddlery Building in LoDo, the spacious dining room balances contemporary furnishings with a vintage setting and serves a seasonal menu that also changes monthly and is heavy on bold, bright flavors: mint and cumin on lamb with pappardelle, or yellow curry and rhubarb atop halibut. It's worthwhile to at least check out the impressive cheese cart for dessert. Service is brisk and attentive and the wine list is remarkably well priced and includes many by-the-glass options.
