    The experience from host station through the server that took care of us was phenomenal. The food was very good and brought to the table promptly especially in light of how busy it was on this Saturday night. If you are in downtown Denver and maybe enjoying the theater, get done early, have a great meal in an energetic environment and then enjoy the rest of your evening.

    Amazing experience celebrating Valentines evening. First rate fare and first class service. Our server, Austin, went out of his way to ensure that our dining experience was amazing and memorable. Can’t afford to eat here every night, but definitely the ideal spot to celebrate that special occasion.

    Nate was a phenomenal server, especially for Valentine's Day. We were running a bit late due to the weather and getting parking but that wasn't an issue. The salmon was seasoned to perfection, the quinoa's texture couldn't have been better, the zuccini, squash and tomatoes were flavorful, and the sauce was divine. Raspberry vodka was definitely an attention-catcher that led to a carafe of it, which we'll be back for another and to try more flavors. The grapefruit was also enjoyable, just not as tantalizing, but there's certainly something for everyone.

    My fiance and I found our expericene to be absolutely amazing. It wasn't till our host was leading us to our table that our excitement gradually increased. Walking down the candle lit steps, and then stepping into a room where it felt we both have entered into a new world. The ambience with the dim lighting, and the rustic feel of the room was very romantic (fitting for our anniversary!). This will be a silly comparison, but when we finally got a taste of our main plate, the braised bone-in Colorado short rib, I felt like a scene from Ratatouille. Each bite carried feelings and mellow colors to my mind that I haven't experienced before. Physically I was present in the restaurant, but mentally I was somewhere else. I didn't realize this part either, but subconscious I was even chewing slowly just to savor each flavor. We've only been to one other high-end restaurant, Nocturne, so our expectations were high, but I must say, we were completely satisfied and joyes as we left the restaurant. Thank you all for the unique experience.
