Old Capitol Grill (The)

Description:

• Back in the mid-1800s when Colorado was making the big leap from being a territory into lofty state status, Golden was designated as the state's first capitol. The original capitol building, constructed in 1861, now houses this restaurant. The dining gem contains enough historical heirlooms and information to almost qualify it for museum status. The menu has a definite southwestern lean and can be described as "one that has something for everybody." Ribs, steaks and sandwiches are the popular choices. Call for opening hours.
