Indian Restaurant in Cherry Creek: What to Expect at Denver Curry House

Cherry Creek is known for steakhouses, brunch spots, and wine bars. Indian food isn't usually the first thing people think of here, which is part of why we opened on Steele Street. If you're looking for an Indian restaurant in Cherry Creek, this is what to expect.

The menu

The Indian classics are all here: butter chicken, tikka masala, saag, korma, biryani, and naan from the tandoor. Then it goes a bit further. There's Nepali food like momo, choila, and chowmein. There's a Jamaican goat curry, a Thai coconut curry, and dishes built on Colorado ingredients, like lamb chops and rainbow trout curry.

Vegetarian, vegan, and gluten-free dishes are marked throughout, not stuck on a back page.

The bar

We have a full bar with house cocktails built on South Asian flavors: the Kathmandu Cream, Saffron Palace, Tama Tama, Chaiwala's Secret, and more. There's also wine by the glass and bottle, and beers from India, Nepal, and around Asia. Plenty of people come just for a drink at the bar.

Happy hour, twice a day

Every day from 4 to 6pm, and again from 8pm to close: $5 appetizers, $5 beers, and $10 cocktails. It's dine-in only. More in our happy hour guide.
