This place is amazing. We sat at the bar and had Emil as our bartender and server. Everything he recommended was amazing. The oysters, east coast, was amazing with three different toppings. The grass fed filet was truly melt in your mouth experience, and the black cod with soy butter was a wonder. The best part of the experience was Emil. He guided us through the whole dinner.

I stopped by this restaurant without a reservation and got a spot at the bar pretty quickly. The food was amazing! The Alaskan black cod literally melted in my mouth. For sides, I had the truffle mac and cheese and the pistachio carrot, and they were both delicious with generous portions. I finished with the sticky toffee cake, which was so good. The service was great too. I’ll definitely be back when I’m in Denver!

My partner and I loved the vibe and atmosphere! After a long working day we were so appreciative of how laid back, professional and hospitable the staff were.

Our food was great too, I only wish they had a slightly larger selection of fish, but otherwise we were well taken care of. The Steak Tartare was so delicious, well seasoned and literally melted in my mouth. The Gnochhi was amazing too. Can't wait to enjoy dining here again in the future.

Great atmosphere, food, and experience. We were in town to celebrate my birthday and decided to have a nice dinner here Sunday night after the game. Glad we made the decision. We were accommodated with a nice booth that faced the restaurant. Everyone was super nice including our waiter (tall guy with a ponytail). He made great recommendations on food as well as beverages. Meal and appetizers were great and food was reasonably priced for the type of restaurant. Would definitely visit again if we are ever back in Denver.

As soon as we walked in, it felt like a welcoming atmosphere. We had a late reservation for 9:30 (clearly an amazing place) but we got there a tad earlier and fully expected to have to wait; they got us in before we could sit in the waiting area.

The decor and ambiance of the entire restaurant as you walk in is an experience in itself. The art, the lights, the bar, it’s all beautiful and very well done. We did choose to sit outside late September, but they would have been more than accommodating if the weather was adverse. It turned out to be a beautiful night and they had all the fire pits going and it was actually perfect, just check the weather!

We were celebrating a very special event and not only our server but the WHOLE place (servers, bartenders, chefs, and even some guests) made us feel extremely special.

From amazing Champagne to house special desserts, it was perfection. We ordered steaks…. obviously… and they were cooked to perfection. We did splurge and get some of the apps as well and I honestly cannot tell you which was our favorite. And do not get me started on the desserts, there was these little puff things that will explode in your mouth! It was sensational!

I would most defiantly recommend for a special event or a “splurge” night to visit! A complete thumbs up for me.
