About

Kachina Southwestern Grill, a modern Southwestern restaurant and bar where the menu takes guests on a culinary journey across the Southwest. Our inspiration is found in the Four Corners region of Southwest America. Guests are welcomed to a native-inspired space that is a modern interpretation of the airy and relaxing textures of the Southwest. Southwestern ingredients brings a whole new layer of spice and originality to our menu. Continue your journey with a smoky margarita or other selection from our thoughtful wine list, local and regional craft brews, inspired cocktails and agua frescas, or the impressive collection of artisan agave spirits. Taste what happens when the open road is roamed alongside authentically prepared Southwestern food, fresh margaritas and sipping tequila, and, of course, great friends.

We have a couple of different spaces available depending on your overall vision & budget for bridal showers, rehearsal dinners, and day after your wedding brunches.

Our Taos Lounge is a beautiful semi-private space which can work well for either a cocktail, standing reception or a full seated meal. It features plush leather couches with wooden coffee tables & modern decorative stools for a more casual feel or we can also reset the space with long dining tables for a more formal seated event depending upon your preference. We can offer seating for up to 24 Guests with up to 12 Guests seated on either side of the room.

We also have a completely private room adjacent to the restaurant called the Library. This space is more traditional, featuring built-in wooden bookshelves & a gas fireplace. This space can also accommodate up to 24 seated Guests & 30 cocktail. For seated receptions, we can arrange either 5' round tables with seats for 8 guests each or 1 long family-style table as shown in the photos.

Lastly, our Canyonlands space is our largest semi-private area which can accommodate up to 60 total Guests. A white adobe fireplace adorned with built-in shelves of glowing candles provides a beautiful ambiance for any event. With 20-30 Guests, this room has ample space for both dinner seating as well as a private bar set-up & mingling space for Guests upon arrival.

We also have a beautiful outdoor patio called the Cowboy Club that increases our capacity to host up to 75 seated & 100 cocktail. During the spring and summer months, this provides a beautiful outdoor addition to any event.

We look forward to hearing from you!

The perfect event space!

If you're looking for a place to have an event gathering, Kachina has a private room with a patio off to one end called the Cowboy Canyonlands. Outside of it being a stunning and well-designed place, the staff and the food were absolutely incredible for my event.
I'm a COVID bride, so my wedding was supposed to take place last summer. All of our guests were traveling from out of town into Denver, so we wanted a space to have a welcome reception the night before the wedding. I was originally booked at another space, for over two years, when they dropped my event just months before the wedding, with no reason. I know one of the Event Managers at Kachina, Emily, and she suggested we check out their space. From the moment we booked, Emily and the Kachina team (especially the Chef) made us feel so welcomed and supported. They were reasonably priced, offered AMAZING food choices for our guests (including vegan options) and the night-of went PERFECTLY. The staff was so accommodating, Emily and Ashley (another amazing Event Manager) both saw to it that we were taken care of and each guest was happy. The space was so well decorating, the drinks were made perfectly, and they went above and beyond to come up with food stations so it would be easiest for my guests to navigate. It was such a great way to welcome us into our wedding weekend with such ease. I cannot thank Emily, Ashley and the Kachina team enough for the best event!

Great experience with Kachina

We had to reschedule our wedding last year at least a couple of times and we ended up going to Kachina in Westminster for our wedding dinner. It was a wonderful experience and the staff was very professional and flexible to our changing plans. Would highly recommend using them and the food is always so wonderful.

A blessing during the pandemic

The Westin and Kachina grill were an absolute blessing for me and my husband. We were married 6/26/20 and when the city revoked our permit to be married at our original location (socially distant with less than 10 guests) we resigned ourselves to something very small at home or even just a zoom call. Having always loved Kachina Grill we reached out to ask if they could cater and were greeted with a pandemic friendly option at the venue itself! We were ecstatic! Everyone we interacted with from that point on was kind, helpful, and professional. All COVID precautions were discussed in detail, and the wedding itself was set up beautifully (even with each seat 6 ft. away from the other and families kept to their own individual tables). They allowed me to bring my own cupcakes for a reasonable up charge and even accommodated all the little details we requested (my husband just HAD to have their candied bacon for his Bloody Mary)! They even happily turned on the fountain for us during the ceremony! Photo opportunities are absolutely gorgeous at this venue as well. Too bad this marriage is forever, so I will not be able to get married here again anytime soon (I would if I could, lol)! So grateful for this venue and their amazing team.

My favorite restaurant

I absolutely LOVE Kachina Southwestern Grill! We had our rehearsal dinner here and everything was absolutely perfect. We worked with Emily and she was so helpful and sweet. We had 21 people total and used their room in the back of the restaurant which is beautiful. The food and staff was amazing. I would definitely recommend.

Amazing! Would recommend!

It was everything we were hoping for. Our rehearsal dinner went off without a hitch and Emily was very responsive and willing to help at all times. We would recommend this place to anytime who is looking to have an event. We were even accommodated during the COVID times.

Enchanting Evening with Friends and Family!

My husband and I hosted our wedding rehearsal dinner at Kachina and it was everything we had hoped for! As we had many guests flying in from all over the US and the world, we wanted everyone to get a taste of the Colorado Southwest, and not only was the food delicious, but we loved the beautiful event space as well. Kachina’s staff communicated with us throughout the whole process, met the needs of our group, and went above and beyond to make sure we were well attended to on the night of our dinner. I highly recommend this unique restaurant—you and your guests will love the beautiful interior, variety of delicious menu options, and friendly staff!

Kachina provides an event coordinator to work with you from beginning to end even being onsite the night of our event providing support in whatever way we asked of her. She was professional and highly competent as well as super friendly! And not only are the food and service fantastic but the venue itself is beautiful and will make your event unforgettable!

We had our rehearsal dinner and our day-after brunch at Kachina and it was fantastic! Melissa, who handled our reservation, was extremely helpful and anticipated so many of our needs, which made the whole planing process super easy. The food at both the dinner and the brunch was amazing and our guests loved it. We used the Canyonlands room and the attached patio for both events, and the guests loved to have the indoor-outdoor space.
We're all about trust. Our community relies on honest reviews to help you make those big decisions with ease.
