“I think Arvada is really missing some of that fine dining aspect. “We’re definitely a more elevated diner,” Alley said. We’re going to be printing menus probably every day.”Īlley said the concept fills a void in Olde Town and added that he hopes it might enhance the city’s profile in the culinary world. “We’re very flexible and fluid in that sense. “If something doesn’t come in from the farm that day that day that you need, take it off the menu and figure something else out,” Kerr continued. We’re not necessarily planning to be a French restaurant by any means, but we will focus on French methods, sauce work, that kind of thing. “We’re trying to focus on food we love to eat,” Kerr said. The restaurant opened on June 11 and will feature a rotating menu based on what ingredients are readily available. Stone Cellar Bistro’s concept is “Colorado Bistro” - locally sourced food Alley and Kerr love to prepare as well as eat, all with a French influence. It’s crazy I never expected to be right here.” “I used to hang out around here - I’ve been on the tour of the flour mill like 10 times with boy scouts - and it’s so weird that this is our space now. “I grew up around here,” Alley continued. I never thought I’d be opening a restaurant in that space. I went to a play at the Arvada Center and I went to Mi Tierra with some family friends after. “I only ever came to Mi Tierra once - in seventh grade. Kerr said he was ready to move on from Husk, and Alley said that with his background in the area, when the location on Grandview Avenue - formerly the site of Mi Tierra, a Mexican restaurant - became available, he jumped at the opportunity. but he called me two days later and said he bought the restaurant.” “He asked me if I would move out here if he bought a restaurant and I was like, ‘yeah, ok, sure,’” Kerr said.
Then, Kerr got a phone call from Alley that would change both of their paths. After Z Cuisine closed, they split up and went to different restaurants, with Alley operating two food trucks and Kerr moving to South Carolina to run Husk. Rylee Dunn idea for Stone Cellar Bistro - Arvada’s newest fine dining experience, located in the heart of Olde Town - didn’t come from years of planning, but rather the coalescing of two decades-long culinary careers.Īrvada native Jordan Alley first met Brandon Kerr when the pair worked at Z Cuisine in the Highlands neighborhood of Denver.
