Courtesy Denver International Airport – Root Down opening

Heading to or through Denver International Airport?

Be sure to check out the newest restaurant to open there: Root Down – on Concourse C.

A branch of a popular local restaurant of the same name, Root Down DIA uses lots of locally sourced ingredients and has plenty of vegetarian, vegan and gluten-free options on the menu.

The decor is also a big draw: there’s a chandelier made of globes (see above), repurposed basketball court flooring, a living wall of herbs and liquor racks made from vintage luggage.
