Best of Denver 2013 Readers' Poll: The Food & Drink finalists

Mellow Mushroom? Santiago's?  Heavy, heavy sigh ballot stuffers...

This is a disgrace that Russel's Smoke house wasn't nominated for best BBQ.  Brothers BBQ got the nod? Are you kidding me?  That is fast food compared to Russel's.  Across the board, everything at Russel's is far superior to those on that list.  Quite frankly, its better than the so-called best BBQ joints in the country (Blue Smoke, Salt Lick, etc.)  Just my $0.02

maggianos in the same category as il posto and luca? wow. throw in the olive garden. make the competition REALLY stiff. and what's with the steak houses? the keg, ted's montana grill, and texas roadhouse? i propose this article be titled "the best AND WORST of denver"

SO psyched TAG was in the running for Best Fried Pickles. Man, Troy has come a LONG way!!

I can't imagine what would bring a person to submit Beau Jo's or Mellow Mushroom as best pizza or even best specialty pizza with as many truly great pizza restaurants we have in this town.  In fact the only decent pizza listed in either of the two groups is Hops and Pie.  IMO all the others listed are hacks.  Who is stuffing the ballot boxes?

Are you going to release the results so far for the entertainment categories?

Seeing KFC and Popeye's as finalists for friend chicken has killed any desire I had to keep on responding to this reader's poll.

Where are the results for entertainment?

Why is Hey PB&J in the food cart category? It is a Food Truck.
