The latest addition to Sage Restaurant Group's growing list of successful, architecturally and thematically diverse establishments is a nod to well-appointed coziness. With one arm around modern home-cooking and the other out-stretched around a chic, ambient, fire-lit setting, Second Home Kitchen and Bar (www.secondhomedenver.com) is like a big hug at the end of a long day. Located in Denver’s Cherry Creek JW Marriott, Second Home offers honest food accompanied by an abundant selection of hand-crafted American micro-brews and international wines, in a cozy yet sophisticated setting. All of this comes without pretense and with all the comforts of home.
Clearly, Mr. Karpinski has thought things through. In addition to his already strong development team, Karpinski hired Andre Kikoski to design the space down to the minutest detail. Kikoski comes armed with a lengthy list of highly successful and well-received restaurant designs including P*ONG, The Yankee Club and Suba in New York.
Dark wood, stone and organic finishes define the space, which is centered on a dramatic open kitchen and large brick pizza oven. The “inside-outside” bar has a comfortable patio, warmed by an inviting fire-pit, making for a desirable respite at any time of year.
Second Home serves breakfast, lunch and dinner, in addition to hotel-managed room service. The restaurant is located in the Cherry Creek JW Marriott Hotel at 150 Clayton Lane. Denver Co, 80206. ph. 303-253-3000
