D-Bar Desserts brings great excitement to East 17th Ave. First, the owners are new to the restaurant scene in Denver but not at all new to the area. Keegan Gerhard, famous pastry chef and host on the Food Network is very familiar as he is on TV constantly and has had a presence in town as guest chef at A Taste of Colorado. His lovely and talented wife, Lisa Bailey, has been here too. Together, they are the most talented, charming and fun couple. It shows in the design: big glass doors lets one peek inside from the street—and entering is a must. The small space features a great bar, a fabulous case of mouthwatering sweets, and a display of coffees and more. The modern tables and chairs are a knockout with light aqua walls offering a soft and pleasing ambience. The patio is divine and just the spot to enjoy your selections. Now to the food. Just try to pick your dessert: cookies of all kinds, brownies plain or s’mores where they heat the graham cracker filled chocolate delight to melt the marshmallows covering the top, cupcakes galore, truffles, and candies, and more. Tiramisu, lemon cake, and tarts tempt. Don’t forget muffins, scones and breakfast treats too. Just trying to decide is the problem. Special coffee and tea drinks, cold sodas and more please all. Savories fill out the menu with a selection of divine pannini for lunch as well as beautiful, tasty salads. In the evening add pizza, sliders, mac and cheese with lobster or plain, and different specials each day. And if you are looking for any desserts, cakes, especially wedding or special occasion cakes, they are available. Keegan and Lisa have totally blown away the fans putting their talent to the test—and getting a blue ribbon! D-Bar Desserts is an instant hit.
