Hands down the food was the best part. We had the mussels, beef bourguignon, and the salmon strudel. The place itself looks very nice and we loved being there. They have a good wine list and other options as well. Only weird part was our server who was nice enough but he only ever addressed me and not my wife. Also odd he bagged up the food for the table of four next to us but just gave us the boxes to do it ourselves. Not the end of the world, he was a nice enough guy. Price of the food was expensive but nothing out of the ordinary for cherry creek. Overall we still liked it and would recommend.
Best experience ever! 11.99$ Monday deals is incredible! We ordered penne bolognese and carbonara. They are delicious, as well as Caesar salad. Definitely will be back!
Best fettuccine Alfredo I’ve ever had! I’ll be dreaming about it for a while. The vibe of the place is super unique and fun and the food feels so authentic and delicious. We got dessert to go, too, which was incredible. The chocolate hazelnut cake was Devine. My only complaint is I didn’t find it sooner on our trip so we could go twice! If I’m ever back to Denver I’ll be making a reservation ASAP.
Great romantic and homey atmosphere! The bread was delicious and so was the food. Highly recommend the muscles. The sauce was amazing! Staff were very friendly as well.
Odyssey Italian is a staple on 6th. Housed in a funky old house Odyssey serves large portions of basic classic Italian dishes. Prices are reasonable…just don’t expect mind blowing dishes. Great for a casual date or taking the whole family out. Their health score isn’t the best but I haven’t noticed anything

Parking is tough

Make reservations as its very popular
Perfect place for a party! We hosted a luncheon for 20 people at La Merise. Terrific food - great service! And the room is lovely. Beyond great service, Elena helped us find the perfect, well priced wine. Highly recommended!

Delicious gnocchi! Mondays are a great pasta deal day, and the menu had solid vegetarian options. Definitely make a reservation and know the service may be a bit slow. Reiterate any allergies or restrictions as it can get very busy.
Warm, intimate Italian restaurant in an old home with a very cozy four-person bar. Walked into a Monday $12 pasta deal by accident so that may have changed how much time we had the table for (they were busy with reservations so only had an hour to eat.) Service was good but a little chaotic. Many people towards the end at the table all sort of rushing around us to get things cleaned for dinner. No ones fault, just came on a busy day. I got the bolognese and upgraded to pappardelle. The sauce was very good, but the noodles were overworked and just falling apart as I ate them. The carbonara was more of an alfredo, and I did not enjoy it. We’ll be back when we have more time to savor the atmosphere and try some more menu items.
We came on a Monday for $12 pasta, which is a great deal! Along with the pasta, you also get bread (with olive oil/balsamic) and a Caesar salad. The pasta was classic and delicious. Our server was nice, but he definitely seemed busy running back and forth, so it was difficult to get water refilled/get the check.

My only complaint was the atmosphere. The restaurant is in a historic home, and we sat on the second floor, in a small room. There was a group of 4 and another couple in the room. It was SO LOUD. The larger group was a rowdy bunch and spent most of the dinner shouting loudly across the table. I couldn’t hear most of what my fiancé was saying across our small table. We tried to get out of the restaurant as fast as possible because of how loud and uncomfortable it was, unfortunately.
An amazingly beautiful spot with a romantic atmosphere great food and even better service. The fresh orange juice and French toast was a perfect way to start the day.

One of my favorite restaurants in Cherry Creek just keeps getting better! Yesterday on the patio I had a delicious pizza and glass of Chardonnay and Josh took great care of me. Today I was thinking about how good it was so…Tonight for dinner I had your quinoa salad with salmon and it was super fresh and delicious.
Reservations were easy, and customer service was on point. The servers are friendly, attentive and helpful. Fine dining but not pretentious. The food was absolutely fantastic. I had the beef bourguignon and my date had the chicken . Both were delicious with flavorful sauces. The serving was generous and more than enough.
We are looking forward to dining on the patio when the spring comes.
Wonder French restaurant in the heart of Cherry Creek. Lovely patio when the weather is right. The flavors are delicious and cuisine is a wonderful change of pace. Great date night spot. The filet gorgonzola crepe is amazing.

Everyone is on the same page. I could tell each staff member was comfortable and empowered in their role, and it makes a huge difference. Neither of us drink and one of us is vegetarian. Nate made us delicious n/a cocktails and the chef sent out an incredible vegetarian main for us that was off menu. Steps of service were flawless - no awkward moments at all. They also sent us home with house made chocolates, cookies, and muffins. That’s a really special touch that keeps the experience going when you get home. Whatever cookies their baker had made for the gift bag were perfect. Hopefully Mizuna is a sign of things to come in Denver

The service tonight was exceptional! Everyone, from host, our waiter, bartender and sommelier were so knowledgeable and made us feel at home. Chef’s tasting menu is totally worth every penny! We got 11 courses, including Beef Wellington, and were so full we barely finished. Can’t wait to go back!
Came here for brunch on Sunday. Parked in garage one block away. Very nice atmosphere. Had French toast with fruit and it was delicious. My grand daughter had the banana crepe and she didn't like the banana in it! The banana was a little soft but still good. I ordered coffee but never had an offer for a refill! The women's bathroom had a stack of wooden toddler seats next to the toilet which isn't very sanitary! I thought that was odd!

My husband and I love coming here. It’s our favorite restaurant in Denver. The food is always delicious. It’s upscale dining, but the staff is so nice you feel like you’re part of the family.

We celebrated my husbands birthday with his parents and enjoyed ourselves from start to finish! The atmosphere was so warm and inviting. Love the mood - No bright invasive lights. The service was top notch and our server was so gracious. He treated us quite a bit. The limoncello in the beautiful mini crystal stems were so delicious. The food was just superb! We will be back!

Delicious and with solid wine options. No chefs menu but every dish was delicious. Great service with good explanations of each dish. Would like to see more specials; hoping for seasonal menu rotation. Will definitely try again.

Incredibly delicious food! Hard to decide what to order because everything sounded fantastic! The bakery inside was yummy and made the entire place smell delightful! Can't wait to return. The fries were INCREDIBLE
We started with an octopus appetizer which was a bit too chewy. Seafood dishes in Colorado can be tricky but we expected it to be better since they decided to put it on the menu. Caramelized onion Ravioli, inspired by French onion soup, was fantastic! We also loved their version of tiramisu. I wish they had more carnivorous entrees available. We will definitely be back but will skip the seafood!

Top-notch service and friendly ambiance, but the food didn't quite hit the mark. A limited menu aimed for perfection, yet the chicken tasted canned. The crab cakes, while not bad, leaned towards the mediocre side. Was Hoping for a tastier experience. We couldn’t make a reservation to any restaurant in the area , while this one was pretty empty, now we know why.

HOLY SH!T. How is this place not the busiest in Denver?!? Best meal I have had in Denver yet. Chef and bar crew went WAY above and beyond with allergies, and made a point to say they take allergies as a challenge and fun option not a burden (wow, seriously? A blessing). The drinks and the food were incredible. The tallow candle perhaps the most fun and inventive despite being just the option for bread to start—really set the bar high! Chef brought out more bread with the “Gems” salad—also whoah…it has no business being this delicious?!?! We got the chicken and short ribs both sans dairy and wow—if these options were on the menu all the time we wouldn’t have asked questions before ordering. We paired dinner with a natural orange wine that’s so new it was off menu, but a perfect calm wine pairing to highlight the food without overpowering and yet compliment it more—hat’s off to the wine crew! The dessert we were again pleasantly surprised by how rich a non-dairy orange chocolate sorbet could be! Paired with a Negroni twist and the chai cocktail on menu it was SO GOOD! Seriously cannot wait to take friends here from out of town as it’s one of the first non-taco spots that I want to recommend and the food plus drinks were out of this world.

We loved Mizuna! We were celebrating a special occasion and Mizuna celebrated with us by greeting us with complementary champagne. The food variety matched all of our tastes and I got to try Beef Wellington for the first time! All courses were spectacular and the special touch at the end was a free box of cookies and muffins and a box of chocolates! If you’re looking for friendly service and amazing food for your next special occasion then I highly recommend Mizuna!

This is one of our favorite restaurants in denver. It's a great atmosphere. Very well done. We sit at the bar, and eat the Cesar salad, and the pizza is exceptional here. 👌 It's really not easy to find traditional Italian pizza in denver, this has great flavor and the crust is very well done.
The bartenders are very good and we have never had a bad experience here. We love love love to go here and relax and chill. Great spot highly recommend !!!

Hands down one of the best Italian restaurants I’ve been to in Denver! Had to plan well in advance to get a reservation but it was completely worth it. The focaccia was delicious. The eggplant Parmesan is a must get! The banana pudding tiramisu was soft and light but pleasing! Would definitely come back again!

Can’t go wrong with pairing with a Chianti

This was hands down the very best meal and experience I have had at a restaurant. I love to watch and learn from others and I can say every person in the restaurant loved what they did and it showed! You felt like a friend from the door and it just kept getting better. I had the best eggplant dish I have ever had and normally would not have considered it, but my hostess was gracious and thorough in her description and it peaked my interest. My only disappointment was in my inability to finish such amazing cuisine! I was traveling through on business but will definitely be back when possible!

To preface, I’m sad to write this review, but Mizuna was a big, expensive disappointment. If they had charged us half of what we got charged, this would be a 4.5 star place. For a $700 dinner tab though, this place barely -
warrants 2.5 stars.

Good things we liked
-everyone was really nice and attentive; even the chefs greeted us when we came in and when we left
-the ambiance is great, it’s super romantic
-the menu seemed interesting and creative
-the server did ask the kitchen when I brought up my allergic reactions
-my partner liked the beef tartare and the scallop
-the duck was good and cooked perfectly but, not the best I’ve had in Denver

Here’s my list of grievances:
-tablecloth was dirty when we sat down
-I have allergies and had reactions from multiple dishes- I asked during the meal “does this have my allergy food in it?” And each time was told no
-I left untouched dishes on the table or slid them over to my partner for this “tasting menu” option; only once did the server ask if something was wrong when she saw me do that, only she didn’t ask out of concern, she asked because she never wrote anything down and “thought I wanted beef tartare” when in fact it was my partner who requested that specific plate
-yeah the no writing anything down for a $700 meal service is pretty bananas to me; esp when the guest indicates allergies in the PAID RESERVATION
-the wine was a complete miss - not one of their wines on the “sommelier tasting menu” was worth it (although my partner disagrees and thinks the Cote de Rhone at the end was good…I think he was just drunk by then)
-the $35 “famous” lobster mac and cheese was an abomination. I can’t even begin to tell you how embarrassing it is that I had to mix it up because at least 3 tbsp of oil was sitting on top of dish (did it separate from sitting around or do they just serve it like that? Couldn’t tell)
-I’m watching other tables get bread while we have been there longer and we had nothing on the table except a dirty tablecloth. At least throw me a roll at the beginning of service for $700 jeez
-the server was very nice but again, didn’t write anything down, and didn’t tell us when we sat down that tasting menus has to be served to everyone at the table or no one at the table could have a tasting menus, which elongated the process to order.
-pasta dish was way overcooked, please don’t serve anymore Italians this (they did tell me the pasta was made in house)
-dessert was underwhelming but it did have a candle on it
-for a 22% “creating happy people fee” to be incorporated into the bill, but then to find that the turnover is so high, just doesn’t compute
-an acquaintance says this place is just hit or miss, but for $700 meal for 2 people it should hit after hit after hit every time

….and now I know why they didn’t get a Michelin star

Wouldn’t return
Absolutely loved the atmosphere and service of Restaurant Olivia! The staff is absolutely fantastic! They were great at accommodating my dietary needs. The gluten-free dairy free focaccia was such a lovely treat! I personally did not love the gluten-free pasta, I wish I would have gone with a different dish.

Such an amazing atmosphere in this LoHi gem. I also LOVE the brunch. This delicious dish I ordered had so much flavor and my friend got an equally delicious egg brunch dish. The service is fantastic and I will definitely make another visit for dinner here soon!

This place has been in my list for sometime! I hosted a supper club here for eight women and we left stuffed! They formulated a menu for us in advance of options to choose from. They accommodate my dairy allergy. The service was incredible. They offered us a private dining space complete with a private restroom within the dining space. I was a little bummed in the flavor profile in my pasta and dessert selection. The eggplant was the flavor prior highlight for me. The drinks were lovely, wine selection was incredible! Space is stunning! Parking is limited. Thank you RO!

The best bread and sauce I had (Whipped Ricotta). The venison was a little tough but delicious. The French onion Ravioli was very unique liked it alot. Tagliatelle was very good. Portion sizes are rather small for entrees and with the bread and 3 entrees our bill came out to around $170.

The service here was phenomenal. Water always full and they actively assisted in splitting our meals since we shared everything - separate bowls for the ravioli and then separate plates given while the other dishes were served in the middle.

We have ordered from Olivia's in the past. They are a great spot and we have really enjoyed their lasagna dinner for four. I ordered from them a little early so that I could pick up when there wouldn't be too much traffic. They are located on the corner of Downing and Alameda and it can get very busy there. I ordered from their website, which redirects to a third party- Toast Tab. I received a confirmation text for the order and another one saying that my pick up would be ready at 3:12. To be honest, I was surprised that I was able to place an order since the restaurant was technically closed during this time between lunch and dinner.

I headed over there and arrived at about 3:23. Perhaps you are not supposed to go into the restaurant, the text said to let them know when you are curbside and they will bring your food out, but I found a parking spot so I headed in. They were busy prepping for the night. My order was not ready. It seemed that the register got the order but the kitchen did not. I waited for about 20 minutes as they cooked the eggplant parmesan ($30) and assembled the salad ($14). The Focaccia ($5) and the Jar of Bolognese ($26), I imagine, were prepared ahead for the night.

I was a little disappointed that though the hostess thanked me for my patience in the end, they did not apologize for not having the order ready. When I asked what had happened she said they remodeled recently and that may have been the issue. And then made a comment how the food will be nice and hot and fresh, since they were making it while I sat there. I was getting it early to eat later so that wasn't really helpful. She offered me a seat but surprisingly did not offer me a glass of water.

Although the pick up was a little bumpy. I appreciated their photocopied note made to look handwritten. The Bolognese was delicious and is a good deal as it can easily be used for a whole pound of pasta and feed a family of four. The Eggplant Parm was good (a little dry, but maybe that was because it was take out ) and they packed the sauce separately which helped it not get overly mushy. It seemed a little overpriced for 3 small pieces of eggplant . The focaccia was delicious.

Overall I would recommend Olivia's. Very solid food, most items were reasonably priced.I hope that communication between Toast Tab and their restaurant improves and that they would have been a taken a little responsibility for the mishap.
I know they recently got a Michelin recommendation and am sure they were busy getting ready for a packed Friday night.

the absolute worst service of my life. we had reservations for 6:30, party of 5 that were made 2 weeks in advance. Ater we were finally seated we received we put in our food and app orders at the same time to help them out. apps areived an hoir later! 9 oclock and still did not receive entrees. manager was the most condescending person ever. when we asked when our food wood be out we were told another 25-30 minutes. we had already been waiting amost 3 full hours. manager claims they were super busy because of conventions. well whats the point of reservations? if you can accomodate the crowd dont seat them. $100 a steak and you cant even get it to my plate. Never would i ever recommend going here. the crab cake app was excellent but no even remotely worth dealing with that rude obnoxious manager. clearly their management is the issue.ake sure you have a few hours to spare waiting on the food.hard to rate the food when you get none.

We went here for our anniversary and we felt so special. The food was so good and Stephen was amazing and so helpful! While this is primarily a steakhouse they also had great non-beef options (I don’t do beef but the salmon was sooo good!) We had so much fun celebrating here and would absolutely recommend.

The waffles and challah French toast were good, the butter that comes along really made the dish, best butter I've ever tasted. The chilaquilas were pretty good, and the caramel latte was delicious. I also got the chai, and although it was too sweet, it was good. The service was great.

Alex was our waitress and she was great. Attentive but gave us enough time to enjoy our food and time together. She was knowledgeable about with the menu and answered any questions we had and made some great suggestions. All of the food was delicious and we will definitely recommend STK to anyone looking for a nice date night or to celebrate a special occasion.

Food: I have been here multiple times and the food is always fantastic. The seafood is high quality and always fresh. I would highly recommend the jumbo crab cake. It is perfectly seared on the outside and delicious crab inside. It also comes served with a slaw. It actually is pretty big too. I would also recommend the surf and turf appetizer. You can’t go wrong with scallops seared to perfection and short ribs so tender you don’t need a knife. As far as dessert, you literally can’t go wrong! I love their 10 layer carrot cake.

Service: Every time I have gone, the staff was always very attentive, friendly, and made great recommendations. They were always respectful of the time because normally I would have a show to attend at the Denver Center of Performing Arts.

Highly recommended eating here for any occasion!

This was my first time at this style of establishment, and I am absolutely blown away. The bold, rich flavors kept me constantly thinking, trying to process everything I was enjoying. From the kind staff, to the comfortable environment, to the visual presentation of the dishes made this meal very special. I highly recommend planning a nice night out if you are a fan of fantastic food. I personally had the Oak Smoked Hudson Valley Duck, and it was beautifully moist and full of flavor (and I have never had duck up to this point). Will definitely need to visit Mizuna's again in the future.

Thank you to all the waitstaff, chefs, and back of house for making this evening very special for my wife and I.

My wife and I were visiting Denver and decided to stop in on a Saturday night. The restaurant was crowded but we were seated right away treated to some delicious popcorn. My wife ordered twin lobster tails and I got the grouper. The food was excellent. My meal came with some of the best gnocchi I have ever had. The atmosphere was great too given the location in Larimer Square. I would highly recommend Ocean Prime.

Shadi had such and attention to detail for us
I wish this was the standard everywhere

I never had such an amazing birthday other than here. They really made us (my partner) feel really special that night

If you ever have them as a server just know that this place get super busy and that you’ll be waiting around 5min or so which isn’t too bad with company but anyways you’ll never regret coming here

There's nothing better than starting the day with a delicious breakfast at the bindery. I highly recommend the place. Doelicious dishes from the breakfast offer, fantastic coffee and their pastries. I especially recommend the blueberry and blackberry scone. The place is beautifully decorated. The service was ok.

Absolutely incredible service and experience. Gave me a champagne toast & dessert to celebrate my bachelorette party. From the greeters in the beginning, hosts, servers, busters to the managers they made you feel like they 100% valued you as a customer. We were late because we got lost (we are from Delaware) and felt so bad about being late, apologized profusely & they just said “we don’t care, we are just happy you are here with us”. Talk about outstanding customer service! Manager even came over to compliment our table and said we were nice & beautiful ladies that stood out and brought up the restaurant. Just genuine, kind, hospitable people working there. Thanks again for making the experience so special.

A fun, girls night in Denver! A few friends and I went to STK on a Friday night and had so much food. We ordered a variety of meats, appetizers, and cocktails. The wagyu was to die for and the wedge salad was my favorite. The server had the best recommendations in wine and took great care of us.

We didn’t care too much for the food as it was mayo based and nothing on the menu indicated this. Our waiter also forgot our tacos but made up for it in the end! I got the iced matcha sweetened and it was perfect!

Alex completely made our Saturday! This was quite the treat. The lobster Benedict was amazing and paired with the cinnamon French toast and the pork belly Benedict…..heaven!!! The drinks were perfection in a Martini glass…but all paled to the level of service provided by Alex. Her knowledge of the menu and personality left a lasting impression. Thank you! Next time I fly in, I will definitely be coming back!! Alex is top drawer!!

We had a great time at Mizuna! We did the tasting menu with the wine pairing - definitely a splurge cost-wise but worth it for the food and the wonderful service. We were nervous about the "blind" nature - not knowing what you're gonna get next - but every course tasted incredible and the wine pairings were excellent. Also, they are more than happy to make sure that you get a taste of another item listed on the menu to be sure you don't miss out. We asked for one course to be the Beef Wellington (highly endorsed by the waiter) and they swapped it into the normal tasting menu so we could try it!

What we really appreciated were all the unannounced special touches - extra pours of wines we liked, surprise extra dishes, and to-go treats. The staff went above and beyond to customize out night and make it special. This isn't a mass-produced tasting menu experience like you may have had elsewhere. We highly recommend anyone in the Denver area gives Mizuna a try! They even have their own cookbook available if you want to read about their techniques.
Monday nights are pasta nights for $10. MAKE A RESERVATION. Very small unique restaurant. ALL of their food is phenomenal. Their fettuccine Alfredo with grilled chicken is fantastic. I recommend their manicotti. The lobster mushrooms are great, but not worth the price.
A lovely place for a date night. Everyone in Denver must visit.

I valeted my car right by Ocean Prime on Larimer Square for $10 with validation from the restaurant.

We arrived at Ocean Prime and were seated at a high-top table in the Lounge. The aesthetic was high-end and sophisticated with chestnut woods and dark blue uplighting. Our server Elliot had great flair and happy hour recommendations. Managers Chris and Nick ensured customers had everything they needed and were well taken care of.

For cocktails I had the Black Orchid - only $8 during happy hour - made with Belvedere Organic Blackberry & Lemongrass Infusion, St. Germain, Fresh Lemon & White Cranberry Juice. This cocktail is my favorite at Ocean Prime. The Black Orchid came in a martini glass with an ice orb that held an orchid flower inside. The cocktail had aromas and flavor notes of blackberry & lemon that burst onto the palate with a lovely juicy sweetness that refreshed.

Jaclyn had the Reposado Paper Plane made with Casamigos Reposado, Aperol, St. Germain, & Fresh Lemon Juice. The Reposado Paper Plane was the National Cocktail Competition Winner of People's Choice Awards.

The Ahi Tuna Tartare was made with Avocado, Pickled Ginger, Sour Cream, & Citrus Ponzu. The Tuna Tartare was an elegant raw appetizer filled with fresh, light ingredients. The sushi-grade ahi tuna pieces were generous in size and had a soft texture against the satisfying crunch of the wonton crisps.

The Prime Roll was made with Tempura Shrimp, Cream Cheese, Scallion, & Beef Carpaccio. The thinly sliced beef carpaccio sat atop the sushi roll and gave it a savory flavor. The tempura shrimp in the roll had a delicate crunch that folded into the smooth cream cheese.

The Ocean Roll was made with #1 Tuna, Salmon, Hamachi, Avocado, & Chili Garlic Oil. The Ocean Roll was fresh and vibrant. The hamachi was smoothly luscious. The chili garlic oil added subtle spice that enhanced the richness of the tuna, salmon, and hamachi.

The Sonoma Goat Cheese Ravioli were made with Golden Oak Mushrooms. The ravioli was wonderful - a richly flavored pasta filled with smooth goat cheese.

For our seafood main we split the Teriyaki Salmon made with Shiitake Sticky Rice, Soy Butter Sauce. This is one of the best salmon entrees you can find in Denver. The salmon was juicy and flakey and coated in the bold & thick teriyaki glaze. The sticky glaze combined with the soy butter sauce gave the salmon a perfect combo of sweet tang.

For dessert we had the Warm Butter Cake made with Fresh Berries, Vanilla Ice Cream, Raspberry Sauce. The cake was piping hot with vanilla ice cream melting atop. The crisp sugar exterior gave way to a densely buttery interior making for decadent gooey bites of the cake.

The experience is great. The dry ice made the meal fun and exotic. Thr food was amazing.

It is pricey but it is amazing quality. The fish is juicy and we'll seasoned. The oysters to lobster was very fresh and didn't have a overwhelming fishnets.

You will need to find parking in advance or pay heavy on valet or close parking.
We’ve wanted to dine here for months, so we were very excited to celebrate a 40th birthday at Fifth String. The atmosphere was incredible and that’s where it ended, with the exception of the tallow candle. That was unique and delicious. The cocktails were also pretty great, but the bubble-trouble mocktail was sweeeeeet and childish. Nobody wants a big scoop of bubblegum sherbet in their drink. The seafood tower did not match the price. The best part was the oysters and the crab salad. The clam ceviche was awkward at best with little flavor. The shrimp were not fully shelled and served with a avocado purée so there was no variance of texture just one-note and mushy. Pappardelle had such potential but was boring, flavorless and had hardly any promised veggies; people order this for the morels, put in the morels!! The salmon itself was cooked well, the rest of the dish was a pure salt lick. The filet and bone marrow had a nice cook on the meat, but again very salty. The short rib was the fattiest any of us have ever had and the sauce was awkward. I don’t have a better word and the pops of pickled veggies didn’t work. It’s like someone said their dishes needed acid and they took that far too literally. The chicken matza ball did was just awful. The matza was terribly underwhelming and dry, the chicken-one piece dry the other borderline undercooked so we didn’t even eat it. The carpaccio had potential and was good flavor-wise but had crispy edges like it was out on the counter for hours. It was spicy which was a nice surprise.

Great place to take in Downtown Denver, walk the streets and shops. Amazing Surf and Turf. Sides of mushrooms or mash potatoes are a must! Martinis are fabulous. Great restaurant even with a ton of construction going on.
What a wonderful place and we will be back. Our server was incredible, thank you for your service and hard work! We had the chefs special. Grouper and the veal chop. Probably one the most memorable meals I’ve had in the past decade. Good job! Le Magnifique 👌🏼

Food was innovative, with influences from around the world blending into American dishes. One example was the Middle Eastern Baharat spice mix on cod, or tahini on branzini. It was also very well executed. The pasta was perfectly al dente, and the fish was perfectly cooked. All pastas, breads and desserts are made in-house, and they even make great gluten free bread. Our summer tomatoes in the Burrata starter were simply divine. Service was attentive and wonderful, with knowledgable staff. The wine list was well-curated and we had a bottle of red wine that was unlike anything we’d tasted before. For those driving, there is an on-site parking garage too. Will definitely return!!! My only tiny regret is that while I love New American savory food, I find New American desserts less interesting. May go with ice cream next time.

I took my best friend here for her birthday tonight and we had a really nice time! I was blown away by the quality of the food and the service. From the moment we walked in, all the staff were welcoming and professional. Our server Harry was absolutely fantastic and provided great recommendations. We started with the bread basket (okay, we had two) and Brussels sprouts. The seared salmon and seared tuna, entrees were perfect. The mashed potatoes were so buttery and delicious. The berries and cream dessert and mocktails were the icing on the cake. I’m so excited to eat my leftovers tomorrow and even more excited to come back next time for a great meal! Thank you Capital Grille.
I had the most delightful experience celebrating our 8 year anniversary at the Capital Grille, all thanks to the exceptional service provided by our server, Wade. From the moment we arrived, Wade greeted us with a warm smile and made us feel incredibly welcome.

Throughout our afternoon lunch, Wade went above and beyond to ensure that every detail was perfect. The French onion soup, a personal favorite, was presented beautifully and tasted absolutely divine. Our mimosas were expertly crafted, providing a refreshing and celebratory touch to our meal.

What truly stood out was Wade's attention to detail and genuine care for our experience. Despite not ordering a main course, he treated us like VIPs, ensuring our glasses were always full and promptly addressing any requests or questions we had.

Wade's professionalism and friendly demeanor created a relaxed and enjoyable atmosphere, allowing us to fully immerse ourselves in the celebration. His knowledge of the menu and willingness to offer suggestions made our dining experience truly exceptional.

We left the Capital Grille feeling grateful and thoroughly satisfied, all thanks to the outstanding service provided by Wade. It's refreshing to encounter a server who takes such pride in their work, and I would highly recommend him to anyone seeking an unforgettable dining experience.

We are from the Great State of Texas and are on a quick weekend getaway in Denver. As soon as we learned that there was an STK restaurant near our hotel, it was unquestionable where we were going to dine. Our server was Amber, who immediately showed us her professionalism, expertise and knowledge of what she represents in this restaurant. She answered all of our questions and provided some great recommendations. The service that she provided was impeccable and she made us feel very comfortable. We truly enjoyed our dining experience in Denver and we had a night to remember. Thank you for a great evening.
This is the best pizza I’ve had in Colorado. The staff are friendly, this place been here 30+ years!! Will be back wanna try the veal.

Brought my daughter here for graduation dinner. She wanted a white table cloth dinner for her first time! She chose this place...atmosphere was very noisy, table's very close together, but the food was the best any of us has ever put in our mouths. Our waitress brought a fabulous cremebrulee after our meal for my college grad, yummm!

Overall, it’s a great experience. We celebrated my wife’s birthday and we loved the crème brûlée with happy birthday written in chocolate. It’s a great gesture. The dinner would have been perfect if all dishes are served one after one. The lamb appetizer is not great.

I'd say 4.5 stars. There is a free parking lot on the side of the building which is awesome! I was greeted right away when I walked in and seated with my party. The service was great...friendly and quick. I enjoyed the cocktail that was recommended by the server (yuzu enjoy me). It was adventurous for us, but had to try the tallow candle bread service. It was good with the herbs they put in there. My friends said they could taste the beef flavor, but I didn't necessarily notice it. I don't remember the name of my dish, but it was a crab and lobster curry. It was okay, but I didn't love it (might be more my taste versus the quality of the dish). It was a little spicy for me, but the servers kept my water filled, which is lacking at a lot of places these days. The dessert menu looked good, but we didn't have any this time. They do put a 6% service charge on the bill.

It’s a great place for having with one of the best calamari I ever had. It’s a little expensive but the food is really good. We tried some sushi, calamari lamb chops, ribeye etc. Everything tasted great! Do try the restaurant if you are in Denver downtown. Forgot to mention they have some good vegetarian options too.

The food is as outstanding! Danny our server did an amazing job as well, excellent service. We enjoyed the Chilean sea bass and branzino dish along with calamari for appetizers. Every single dish was amazing but the highlight would have to be the Chilean sea bass, absolutely superb! Nice ambiance and we had a nice city view upstairs, highly recommended.

This place was next level- the portions are small but don't over do it! We got triple apps and almost couldnt eat the amazing steak and scallops! Maybe could have skipped the cheese on fire - it was good but not as unique as most other dishes. Overall great service, top quality dishes, and great drinks! Worth the top dollar prices!

Amazing food, fun drinks, and attentive service. Fun atmosphere. Expensive but you are getting what you pay for. Love that the entrees are complete and you don’t have to spend $65 on a steak then another $15 if you want some veggies or to have it dressed. Pictured and recommended: barramundi and the bread + tallow candle (omg good). The steak isn’t pictured but we had the center cut fillet and it was quite possibly the best steak we’ve had in a while. Perfectly cooked, paired, and melted in your mouth like butter. Butter lemon cake for dessert was divine.
Amazing French restaurant! I ordered a chicken liver appetizer and a trout. The chicken liver is very savory and goes well with the crackers. The trout is well-processed. Not a single bone can be found. The sauce adds more flavor to the fish.

This is a classic high end Steak and Seafood House. High end prices with high end finishes. The food comes out cooked to perfection, everything is well presented, and the staff took extra good care of us. We sat upstairs and the vibe was pretty chill despite the prices on the menu. If you’re looking for a fancy night out, this is the place for you.

New favorite restaurant!! Wow! The ambiance is sexy and intimate, I haven’t heard of any of the cocktail concoctions they had (which I appreciate) I had the espresso martini from the menu. Each dish is beautifully composed, with the option to add on oysters or seafood. We started with the cheese appetizer that they light on fire in a mini cast iron skillet. Our server spoke way to fast and we had to consistently ask what she had just said (weird… slow down lol). Amazing place and I can’t wait to go back

My family and I came here for lunch midweek and it wasn't super busy, but the server was kind of slow between showing up and bringing the drinks, and then taking our food orders.

The four of us ordered different pastas and the flavors were absolutely solid for all four (conchiglie, fettuccine, linguine, ravioli). Our only complaint is that their pastas were all very al dente (as is traditional, so this is a personal/family preference). The pasta was actually kind of hard to chew at some points because it was so firm. I also prefer a softer pasta just because it absorbs sauce so much better that way, and their sauces were superb.
