Yes, that’s a wreath made of French fries. LoHi SteakBar is definitely in the spirit of the season, and its spud-studded holiday decor just took first place in the LoHi Merchants Group wreath contest, besting two dozen other LoHi businesses, including Uber Sausage and Jezebel’s.

The restaurant’s expansion is almost complete, and the private dining room that’s being added beyond the current dining room should be open by New Year’s Eve.
