The metro area is now armed with two locations for Tocabe, Colorado’s only American Indian owned and operated restaurant. This award-winning restaurant opened its newest location on March 7 in Greenwood Village.
Traditionally, Americans have little understanding of food in the American Indian culture. This fact was a main motivation in creating Tocabe. Owner Ben Jacobs and his team wanted to help bring a voice to what Native food can be in today’s world. Tocabe’s Berkeley neighborhood location was featured on the Food Network’s “Diners, Drive-Ins and Dives” in 2011.
New menu items in the Greenwood Village location:
- Grilled Bannock Bread, a traditional style of bread which is rolled out and cooked to order in front of the guest.
- The “Bad Hunter Salad” is served with Arcadia mix lettuce and the guest’s choice of up to five toppings, including seasonal grains, vegetables, fruit and nuts.
- When possible, ingredients are sourced from different native/tribal owned businesses – from the Tepary beans to olive oil.
Tocabe – Berkeley location: 3536 W. 44th Ave.; 720-524-8282. Tocabe – Greenwood Village: 8181 E. Arapahoe Road Suite C; 720-485-6738.
