While Jacqueline Bonanno confirmed to the Denver Post that Bonanno Concepts will, indeed, open a cocktail bar in Capitol Hill around Valentine’s Day, the restauranteur was unwilling to disclose additional details.
Two of the group’s concepts, Green Russell and Russell’s Smokehouse, will soon close. The cessations come after the commencement of some much-needed infrastructural repairs to the 143-year-old Sussex Building. Asana Partners bought the 1400 block of Larimer Street in 2020 and are responsible for the construction taking place which recently displaced Bistro Vendome.
Luckily, both locations will remain open through New Year’s Eve. They’ll host several special events highlighting some of their most popular events throughout the years. Tickets go on sale on November 1 and can be found here.
“The Bonannos are hoping to find another location for Russell’s Smokehouse…although it may not be under the same name,” Jacqueline Bonanno told DP.
The restaurant group won’t reopen Green Russell.
