This journey began in defense of the maker, those that bring to light from darkness, an idea. Our inspiration comes from memory, of travels we’ve taken - it is the thread that helps us bind our creation. Wolf’s is the laboratory where inspiration turns to creation, creation is stitched into a form that when examined takes guests on the creators' journey of exploration. But the quest to create comes not for the supplication of an audience, but for the continual introspective pursuit of pushing the boundaries of what we know as possible.

Having been to Alma Fonda Fina and felt that this was the best meal I'd had in Denver, I was truly excited to dine at Mezcaleria Alma. It exceeded my expectations - the services was exactly as it was at Alma Fonda Fina - warm, attentive, and on par with other Michelin Star experiences. The drinks were exceptional, and the food was sublime. I can't wait to come back and experience this again - it was truly delightful and felt so special! I highly recommend!!
