By next summer, The Denver Art Museum will once again serve chef-driven food to visitors, this time in the form of an onsite restaurant by a Denver James Beard Award-winner.

Jennifer Jasinski — who owns Rioja, Bistro Vendome, Euclid Hall, Stoic & Genuine and Ultreia in Denver — will design the dishes for The Ponti located at the museum. The new restaurant will offer a vegetable-heavy menu as well as pasta, fish and meat dishes in a sit-down environment.

Elsewhere in the museum, the new Cafe Gio (which the chef is not working on) will provide quick, casual service to visitors.

Both restaurants are named for Gio Ponti, who designed the art museum’s under-construction North Building (since renamed the Martin Building). The interiors are designed by Boss Architecture and will include two outdoor patios.

Since 2017, the Martin Building has been closed for renovation, along with its 20-year-old Palettes museum restaurant. That business was operated by longtime Denver chef and restaurateur Kevin Taylor.

“Creativity at the Denver Art Museum won’t stop at the galleries when we begin our phased reopening,” Christoph Heinrich, director of the museum, said in a press release. “We’re delighted to present artful dining experiences to the museum visit, alongside an incredible partner with the expertise to bring our vision into reality.”
