Secret Sauce Food & Beverage, founded and independently owned by Josh Wolkon, operates three unique concepts; Vesta, Steuben’s, and Ace Eat Serve. All three concepts are focused on offering fun and creative dining experiences in well-designed spaces that are full of energy, yet still warm and comforting. While each restaurant’s interior has been awarded for excellence in design by either the American Institute of Architecture or the Mayor’s Design Awards, all three have also helped revitalize the neighborhoods beyond their walls, starting with the re-activation of Lodo in the 90’s and the re-establishment of uptown’s historic Restaurant Row in the 2000’s. Wolkon’s passion for up and coming neighborhoods earned him recognition as a ‘Pioneer of Lodo’ by 5280 Magazine.

In addition to boosting the aesthetic of their surrounding neighborhoods, Josh and the Secret Sauce restaurants are committed to improving their community through philanthropic efforts as well. Wolkon’s chefs take part in numerous fundraisers across Denver each year while the restaurants utilize their dining rooms and amazing staff to host in-house fundraising events. On average, Secret Sauce gives almost 3% of annual profits to non-profit causes. Josh’s dedication has been recognized with National Philanthropy Day’s “Outstanding Small Business” award, the Colorado Restaurant Association’s “Restaurant Neighbor” award, and the “Business Honoree” award (for both Josh and Jen Wolkon) at the 2014 Maverick Thinkers Gala.

On the surface, Vesta, Steuben’s, and Ace Eat Serve are distinct; but a common thread of incredible staff, delicious food and a convivial experience are what make these restaurants all feel like Secret Sauce F&B concepts.
