The Big Easy Creole Kitchen

Denver

PERMANENTLY CLOSED

With purple-backlit fleurs-de-lis on the walls, the upscale eatery serves French-influenced Louisianan larder that starts with apps like jumbo lump blue crab cakes, sweetbreads atop a rich crawfish ragout, and a house specialty turtle soup (guess slow and steady doesn't win the race against people hunting you, huh?!), all of which'll pair well with Bayou beers like Dixie Lager, Blackened Voodoo, and five different Abitas.
