Appaloosa Grill

Established in 2001, the employee-owned Appaloosa Grill is a genuinely distinctive choice among the eateries lining Denver's 16th Street Mall, with an all-day menu built around 100% natural meats and a real vegetarian offering. The 200-capacity 21-plus room hosts live music seven nights a week, with Mondays, Tuesdays, and Wednesdays reserved for regular performers who give the early-week calendar its rhythm. For guests, it is one of the more consistent downtown Denver spots for combining a real meal, a drink, and a set of live music. For artists, the seven-nights-a-week programming density creates genuine slot availability across genres.
