Annette

The gist: Aurora’s first James Beard Award winner (for Best Chef: Mountain region), Caroline Glover kills it night after night at the seasonal, modern American Annette.
The food: Glover’s driving goal for Annette is to make each service feel like a dinner party among friends, whether that means sharing snacks like house popcorn and chive-covered deviled eggs or conversing between bites of oysters and fresh, seasonal salads. While many items are perfect in their simplicity, like the sherry-glazed roasted half chicken, Glover’s also not afraid to tackle less common ingredients and transform them into comfort food, like the grilled beef tongue + marrow toast that’s become a staple on the menu.
