    Thank you for the stars and the kind words. Next time, let the host know that you would prefer a table in the back area, where it tends to be a little quieter. Thank you so much. -Joanna Screaton, Guest Relations Manager

    Guard & Grace is as advertised. Our food was outstanding, and the service was great. Steven/Stephen was so helpful and friendly. It is one of the best restaurants in Denver for good reason, and I would definitely recommend it to out-of-towners or foodies. Unfortunately, the atmosphere is a little overwhelming. The music was extremely loud, with a nightclub playlist that really didn't match the venue/ambiance. It seems like the music is cranked up to cover up the noise from the open kitchen concept, but if I'm paying $100 for a steak, I'd rather hear pots and pans than EDM for two hours straight.

    Third time is not always a charm. Was given a time limit on table. Hostess with glasses and reddish blonde hair in a braid kept walking over to see if we were done which made our experience less than comfortable and rushed. Some of the grilled shrimp was bad not even edible and should've been tossed instead of served, had to put to the side! Waitress forgot steak sauce, which made my daughters steak cold by the time she received it, and did not listen to my food request. Instead my shrimp was on my salad and cold for the first time ever instead of the grilled shrimp cocktail SMH! Just a mess tonight.

    A Memorable Experience at Guard and Grace From the moment we walked through the door, Guard and Grace exceeded all expectations. The food was exceptional, the ambiance was perfect, and the service was nothing short of stellar. A special thank you to Pedro and Jennie at the host stand for greeting us with such warmth and making us feel immediately at home. Our server, Samantha B., truly went above and beyond to ensure that our dining experience was seamless and enjoyable. This visit was a celebration of a special family occasion, and we couldn’t have chosen a better place to share such a moment with our loved ones. The attention to detail and genuine care from the staff made the evening unforgettable. While it’s not uncommon for Michelin-caliber restaurants to have General Managers and chefs visit tables, the personal touch from Justyn, the General Manager, was particularly meaningful. His kind words and thoughtful gesture of a complimentary appetizer made the evening even more special, especially as we celebrated my mom’s birthday. The music selection, featuring nostalgic 1980s Pop Classics and Top 40s hits, added to the positive, vibrant atmosphere, making the experience feel all the more memorable. Thank you to the entire team at Guard and Grace for making this special day unforgettable. We can’t wait to return and relive this incredible experience! Unforgettable! C
