Meet you on the Terrace

by mike

I just got an email asking if I could spread the word about a new rooftop Terrace opening up.

Of course I will, especially since with this beautiful weather I can think of few things nicer than sitting outside with friends enjoying the weather and having a cocktail.

ROOFTOP TERRACE AT VITA IS OPEN

DENVER, August 30, 2007. Just when it seemed Highland hot spot Vita’s celebrated ambience couldn’t possibly get better, owners Mark Schuwerk and Jay Beckerman took it up a notch with the opening of their new rooftop dining space. Boasting a breathtaking view of downtown Denver, the casual but elegant deck offers diners a new way to enjoy al fresco dining. The rooftop patio features a full bar, cocktail tables, elegant European rope lighting, and an unparalleled panorama that extends from the Flatirons and Long’s Peak to the Ramparts and Pike’s Peak.

“We wanted to create a space that was sophisticated and fully embraced the unobstructed view across downtown,” Schuwerk said. “At the same time, we wanted to provide a secluded place where people could relax and linger over a cocktail as they drink in Denver’s best view.”

Beckerman added, “Not only does our new deck significantly expand our serving capacity, it offers a relaxed atmosphere that’s perfect for a romantic evening on the town. ”

On the new Rooftop Terrace at Vita, guests who tire of the panoramic downtown view (hard to imagine) can simply wrap themselves in the embrace of the sparkling light columns and imagine themselves transported to an Italian grotto or a starlit Amalfi Coast beach.

On Tuesdays, Vita caters to wine enthusiasts and offers ½ price bottles. Vita’s extensive fresh cocktail menu makes it a popular destination with the cocktail crowd. Vita offer 2 happy hour’s daily; 3:00 pm- 6:30 pm and one for the night owl’s starting at 9:00 pm and until close.

Located in the former Olinger building at 1575 Boulder Street in the Lower Highland area, Vita is open 7 days a week from 3:00 pm – Midnight (Sunday through Thursday), and 3:00 pm – 2:00 am (Friday and Saturday). Vita also offers Saturday and Sunday brunch from 10:00 am – 2:00 pm with a happy hour from 3:00pm – 6:30 pm.
