Operating Award-Winning Restaurants in Colorado for over 19 years
Big Red F was created in 1994 by Chef Dave Query who has a long history with food in Boulder.
Each kitchen is strongly driven by passionate Chefs, sourcing ingredients with integrity, and practicing technique to its best measure.
Behind the bar, our mixologists are crafting delicious cocktails and
assembling wine and beer lists built on local intelligence and value.
And in our dining rooms are a collection of General Managers striving to ensure a level of hospitality and graciousness that will always be genuine and memorable.
—Dave Query, Founder
