If Denver had a Cheers, this would be it -- only with the bonus of great, made-from-scratch pizzas. Wazee Supper Club is a LoDo pioneer that's drawn a packed house for nearly 30 years. The original owners -- Angelo and Jim Karagas (who have since passed the torch) -- had real foresight when, in 1974, they converted a 1910 plumbing supply house into the Wazee Lounge and Supper Club. At that time, LoDo had yet to be coined and the streets of Downtown Denver's warehouse district were dark and undesirable. Fast forward a few decades and Wazee is the king of cool with the same eclectic crowd -- students from nearby Auraria campus, professionals from downtown office towers and young hipsters prowling LoDo's collection of bars, galleries and dance clubs. While diners may come to Wazee for the top-notch pizza, burgers and beer, even more people end up at this Denver landmark for its nostalgic urban charm. Wazee is known for its comfy, low-to-no pretense vibe, with a funky decor that mixes the past and the present -- boasting a converted 1937 garage door opener that is currently used as a dumbwaiter to shuttle food and drinks, a classic black and white tile floor and a 1930s deco-style bar featuring an old telegraph clock.
