    Food was cooked to perfection-my mouth was exploding with flavors! Loved all our appetizers, especially the octopus and dumplings. We loved the filet steaks and tried the wagyu from Japan which was like “butter” and melt in our mouths! Fantastic service to top it all off!

    This is our favorite “fancy” date night place, and so decided to spend our 20th anniversary celebrating here for dinner. Everything we tried was fantastic and the service was top level. We are so spoiled having this restaurant here in Denver!

    Wow, what a great place. We took pur son here for his 30th and everything, from the oysters, to the salad, to the sides and steaks were really first rate. Service was outstanding as were the drinks. It's not cheap, but it was worth every penny.

    The service was truly outstanding. The staff was friendly, approachable, and attentive without being intrusive. I felt genuinely cared for during my visit. They are reputed for their steaks, and it certainly lived up to the hype; the steak was fantastic. However, the rest of the menu was rather lackluster. The much-lauded chocolate chip cookies didn’t impress me at all and wouldn’t even make my top 100—I've had better at home. The music was reminiscent of a top hits playlist, too loud and somewhat irritating. It’s unfortunate because the decor is quite lovely. Overall, it was a pleasant experience, but I don’t feel compelled to return.

    Thank you for the stars, Elizabeth!! I apologize that the cookies were not to your standard, that is usually not the case. I hope that you will give us another chance to blow you away with our culinary excellence. We look forward to seeing you again soon and making your next experience 5 stars all around! - Tee Paddock, Guest Relations Manager
