FOOD - DRINKS - FRIENDS....the Milanese Apericena comes to Denver!Voghera prides itself in being the first and only restaurant offering APERICENA in the United States. This modern Milanese style of dining is derived from the combination of the words Aperitivo (happy hour) and Cena (dinner). Very similar to the Spanish tapas, Apericena is a convivial experience which embraces small plates and drinks to encourage sharing and the opportunity to savor different flavors and dishes. An entire meal can be composed of smaller dishes or sample one or two alongside larger plates, like our signature Cotoletta alla Milanese – breaded bone-in 16oz veal cutlet – the fresh meat and fish of the day, as well as enjoy our Menu Milanese – a 4- course prix-fixe that revolves around Milan’s best known dishes.Our small but seasonal menu is inspired by the culinary tradition of Milan and also represents the Northen Italian cuisine.

    This restaurant is excellent. The lobster pasta is by far the best I've had in denver. The carpaccio is made well, very fresh. This dish is simple, however it's basically impossible to find people who can execute it correctly. The service is 100%. The host was incredible. Once again they have given an exceptional experience. It's worth the money. I will be going back soon.

    I shared a lovely time with my adult daughters and we were able to enjoy our conversation . The teas and food were great. My only preference would be that we could each get our own tea as I prefer rooibos, I' one daughter orders fruity ones and the other is fine with black teas. I went ahead and shared the black teas and just hope I won't have a migraine tomorrow as I avoid caffeine😜

    We went to Sushi Hai fro my birthday dinner. We had fantastic service and enjoyed our table, and the room was not noisy, we could hear each other which was very nice. The food was outstanding - ramen, steak, and sushi were all excellent. We all enjoyed our experience at Sushi Hai very much and would go again.
