All of this must be accomplished while communicating effectively with other servers, hosts, our bar + kitchen staff.

Serious inquiries only, please.

About Annette:

Caroline Glover founded Annette in the fall of 2016. She named the restaurant for her feisty and brilliant great aunt Netsie, a novelist and short story writer who lived in small town Texas. Netsie didn't teach Caroline to cook, though her tamales and martinis were exemplary. Instead, she taught Caroline to have an opinion. That confidence in her own good taste has carried Caroline through 14 years in the restaurant industry.

Since 2018, Caroline and her restaurant have been nominated for four James Beard Awards, and in 2020 Caroline was a finalist in the Best Chef: Mountain category. In 2019, Caroline was named one of the 10 best new chefs in America by Food and Wine magazine. In 2017, Annette was named one of the 50 Best New Restaurants in the Country by Bon Apptit magazine and was also was Eater Denver's restaurant of the year. Annette has been on 5280 magazines list of Denvers 25 best restaurants each year since it opened.
