    Amazing meal. Went for an anniversary dinner with my wife. Food was amazing from start to finish. Service was top notch. Initially we were going to be sat in a very tight row of 2 person tables that also backed up to the kitchen. Not my idea seating. The host was awesome and put us in the much quieter back room instead. We will be back.

    We had a family dinner (8 adults). Everything was fantastic. Stephanie was the best. We had an issue with one steak not cooked properly but it was remedied. Thank you for everything. From starters (seafood tower and artichoke dip) to the salads, steaks, shareable and dessert, truly amazing.

    This was our 3d time easting at Guard and Grace. It was Saturday night and the restaurant was full. Still, we were seated right on time. Our waiter,Travis, was attentive throughout the meal and, at our request, made several helpful suggestions. One, for example, was to order half potions of pur sides to get more variety. This time I had the pork chop, a very thick meat, beautifully cooked and juicy with a creative pickled fruit sauce. My wife had the pasta special, which included braised short rib - also nicely cooked, flavorful and beautifully presented. We could talk to one another, and although diners were on both sides of us, we heard only our own conversation. We spent literally half what we had spent a year ago at STK and had a much better experience!

    2nd time visiting this restaurant. Food was excellent, steaks prepared properly, and our servers were knowledgeable and attentive. A little more input from our server about wine selections would’ve been appreciated, but we ultimately selected a great bottle of cab. Will visit again.

    This was our first time to Denver. Came for an owners business AGM and had a fantastic time. The service and attention by Tyler was outstanding. The support from other staff at the restaurant including the sommelier was top notch. This restaurant became our collective top restaurant for all previous Annual General Meetings. Tyler welcomed us and was very professional and attentive. He made us feel comfortable comfortable throughout the entire evening. Allow 2-3 hours for the experience and it’s worth every minute and every penny.

    G&G never disappoints. We've had dinner here several times now for special occasions. Hands down our favorite place to go for an amazing meal. The filet flight is an amazing way to experience the differences in the meats. Service is always wonderful. It's not a cheap place but nothing is cheap anymore and at least at G&G everything is top notch across the board.

    We come here alot and seem to be treated differently every time from the hostess with the short blonde hair to the waiter Steven not believing that I use my digital gift cards from the restaurant! Insane! I would really like to know why??! I booked my reservation 2 weeks ago and to tell me there are existing reservations like mine isn't just as important is uncalled for and like its an issue! I'm spending money just like everyone else! Steven didn't believe that I had digital cards, I wrote the numbers down on my check like I always do and he asked to take a picture of my phone instead like really! The treatment tonight was unacceptable seriously! It will be a while until I come back to this place again. Bet disappointing experience!
