Bastion's has been one of Denver's under-the-radar dining gems for decades. It's old school in many ways with its dark booths, retro vibe and menu items that include escargot and jumbo shrimp cocktail. But the thing it's known for, steak, is not diminished in any way by all that, and Bastien's remains a great place to take your sweetheart for a fabulous steak dinner--special occasion or not. Whether dessert will help put you both in a romantic mood is uncertain, but one option is "Better Than Sex Chocolate Cake."
