I’ve eaten many meals at Denver International Airport, and I can honestly say I’ve never been blown away by any. Turns out I may just be eating at the wrong places!

Money Inc. recently released their 2024 list of the “10 Best Airport Restaurants,” and wouldn’t you know a DIA spot sits at number one on the list!

DIA’s Root Down was named the best airport restaurant.

The restaurant is sit down style in the C concourse, right in the main hub and serves “globally influenced cuisine that features an abundance of vegetarian, vegan and gluten-free options using locally-farmed, sustainable and organic ingredients as much as possible.”

Next time you fly out of DIA, you’ll have to give this spot a shot!

There’s an all-you-can-eat sushi and Wagyu beef buffet in Denver, but you get a time limit
