    Meals, and drinks are at the top of the list of best we have had. Service would rank second best. Server, (Brian?) was outstanding but it was a bit loud for us to converse with him and or hear him. Loved the energy, but boy it bordered on too loud. Should you go? Yes absolutely. Go for the food and drinks, just know it will be a bit loud. After dinner wife and I reviewed the best meals of our 25 years, and this is among the handful of best ever.

    Unless you are dining alone (for whatever reason), dining out is usually a social affair, particularly at an upscale restaurant, such as this. However, the noise level was so high as to prevent any easy conversation with ones dinner companion. Enough to spoil the mood.

    This is our favorite Denver restaurant. The food and the service is outstanding. Tonight we were fortunate to have Stephen taking care of us tonight and he was wonderful, very kind man. There was a runner that was terrific sadly I did not catch his name. They were both genuinely kind. I could go on and on but suffice to say this is our happy place.

    Had a wonderful celebration dinner. The food was outstanding. We started with the grilled octopus and gyoza, both delicious. Everyone got steak with the exception of my DIL, who decided on pasta. Everything was cooked to perfection and sooo tasty. I highly recommend Guard and Grace - it's our 3rd time visiting this restaurant, and it's always top notch.

    Our dinner at G&G met and exceeded all expectations. I'd read the reviews and it truly lived up to the hype. The staff was wonderful, knowledgeable, engaging, and worked incredibly well together. The food and drinks were the best we've had. My guy is a huge steak fan through and through, but don't sleep on the cod. We shared the choice ribeye, the wagyu filet, and the cod after having an incredible valentine's started with king crab. I'd recommend this restaurant to anyone looking for an incredible dining experience from start to finish.
