Located in the Kimpton Hotel Born at Union Station, Citizen Rail is a contemporary street-level restaurant that seats 127 guests with a chef’s counter boasting unfettered views of the eatery’s wood-fired grills which are the beating heart of the eatery. Named after the nearby train lines, Citizen Rail presents a menu inspired by Colorado’s legacy of simple, savory fare and old-school American cooking techniques. Boasting plenty of house-aged and butchered cuts of beef, pork, lamb, game and an excellent selection of fresh seafood, the menu features signature plates like hickory oxtail and rice porridge cakes, wood-grilled oysters swimming in cilantro butter, dry-aged filet steak with spring pea hummus and a bright cauliflower tabbouleh, and rabbit loin and sausage with English peas, leek soublis, and roasted morel mushrooms. The restaurant also offers a hand-curated bar program featuring classic cocktails, casual wines, and a wide selection of Colorado craft beers.
