What exactly do you have in mind?  Is price range a consideration?

Here are some suggestions for Colorado Springs.  Denver is a pretty big place, so some idea of general area would help in giving suggestions.

Colorado Springs:
The Craftwood Inn - Manitou Springs
About $100 for two with wine
Most original cuisine in C.S.  Vension,
antelope, wild boar are often featured
but seafood also available.  Menu changes
seasonally.

The Pepper Tree - off south 8th St.
About $100 for two with wine
Their specialty is pepper steak which is cooked
tableside.  We've never actually tried anything
else becuase it is too good, but the appetizers
have all been excellant.  Beautiful view of
the city - one of the best in town.

The Creperie - downtown C.S.
A very small restaurant owned and run by
a very nice French lady.  Prices range from
about $5.00 for crepes to about $12.00 for
the specials, which change daily.  We usually
get out for about $35 for two with wine.
Reservations are necessary, because there
are only about 10 tables.

Charlie's Pit Bar-B-Que - 2 locations
This is the best bbq in C.S.  Family
style restaurant and fairly inexpensive.
I think the full rack of baby-back ribs in
about $10, and that is the most expensive
thing on the menu.

La Casita - south Nevada at I-25
Excellant Tex-Mex fast food.  They make
their own tortillas and grill everything
behind the counter.  Just like Taco Cabana
in San Antonio.

Other standard restaurants I would recommend:
Old Chicago's, Beckett's, Ritz Grill

I hope that helps.  If not, send me mail and I'll
try to help further.
