Here at A Taste of Home Cooking, we don't define ourselves by words, but by the senses! Our story is told through the tastes and smells of our cuisine. But we cook whatever we're asked to, so it is our customers that tell our tale. You define us! We use only the highest quality ingredients from the most trusted sources as a foundation from which to build the very greatest experience in classical Italian dining, old-world German cooking, and home-style American eats.
 Our "menu" is more of a list of suggestions. If you've got a craving for something that it looks like we don't offer, speak up! Our chef would be more than happy to oblige your taste buds on the spot. Our kitchen has the ingredients to offer many more dishes than we have room to print. Likewise, our suppliers have many more ingredients than our kitchen can hold. What that means for you, is that anything we don't already have on hand, we can have brought in to create any dish you can imagine!
 Not sure if we can make what you want? Why not find out right now! Give us a call at (303) 423-2737. We'd be happy to tell you all about what we can do. If you need something that we'll have to order, we'll let you know, and tell you when we can have your dish prepared. We also accept orders over the phone. So whether you plan on bringing a party to our restaurant, would like some excellence to go, or simply want your food to be prepared in advance to eat in, call us up!
 Here at A Taste of Home Cooking, we're dedicated to making your visit an enjoyable experince. We offer many dishes ranging from Italian, German, and American nationalities. We use only the freshest produce and organic meats! At A Taste, we take pride in making our bread fresh daily and cooking all of our cuisines from scratch. Our goal is to strive for the highest quality and best service we can provide. Whether you're in the mood for breakfast or lunch, our menu suits all tastes and dietary needs! At A Taste, we also offer a full catering service. Whether you need boxed lunches for the office, or a full buffet for your wedding, we'll sit down in person and discuss your menu to fit you and your budget.
Thanks for your interest in A Taste of Home Cooking!
