“We had an amazing experience at Stone Cellar last evening. Everything was excellent with perhaps the only exception being the restaurant's attention to dietary restrictions. We had tried SCB a while back and with our gluten intolerance we struggled to make the menu work for us. Unfortunately, that hasn't changed much. We had the same challenges last evening.To be fair, the chef did his/her best to accommdate us by adjusting the entrees to suit but that unfortunately took away some key components that left the dishes that we ordered, lacking. It didn't work for either of us.Our experience is that most restaurants are now well advanced with their ability to offer dishes that are either dedicated to certain dietary restrictions or can be modified to keep the integrity/design of the dish.Oh, by the way, the gluten free buns were really good! That helped make up for the dishes that didn't quite work. We'd love to know where those were sourced.Having said that, the Bib Lettuce salad was incredible and the service (Christian) and atmosphere were absolutely perfect.We're hoping SCB can advance their ability to better accommodate dietary restrictions as we truly want to love this place since it is one of the best restaurants in Olde Towne Arvada.Dietary restrictions: See our general comments.“

She is one of the best servers that works there. As I am usually there with my wife, they make me feel welcome like family. They never rush you. The menu is incredible and it has a little bit of everything in it- it is amazing and well balanced. I highly recommend as the menu and staff are great! Thanks for always taking care of us, Maggie!“

“We live five minutes from Old Town and came here on a Saturday night when there was a whiskey tasting from Talnua distillery. I got a bourbon ball drink, which tasted like a delicious chocolate milkshake and others in our group got other delightful cocktails. The ambience itself is really cool and almost feels like an old Western yet modernized interior. I like how this place is a coffee shop, but also has cocktails and pizza at night. We will definitely be back for pizza in the future. We also had a great time meeting the distillery owners and doing a free tasting and talking for about 30 minutes. Love the vibe of this place!“

“I love the food here. But we have been literally standing an hour after calling ahead 45 minutes. This is very irritating! 1:45 minutes and we just checked in and there are several parties still ahead of us. Maybe we will eat by 8!! We gave been here forever and our waitress Emily was not good. But I feel bad for saying it. Straws took 15 minutes. Steaks went back after being served cold. Now we will see when it gets here.“

“Okay, first off this is a great open mic. Aaron does an amazing job of setting up and navigating for the performers so they can bring their craft. Also Aaron's band 78 bombs rocks, and Travis runs a great bar. This is a super welcoming environment and everyone is chill. Musicians are all awesome and the vibe is sweet. Felt right at home performing and I gotta tell ya there are some stellar musicians here, however this is also a great place for up and comers to cut their performing teeth. Just an amazing establishment!!!Every other Tuesday night open mic. Don't miss out on a great time!!! Thank you Jake's roadhouse!!!“

“So happy New Image opened a location in Arvada! Walked here after watching a movie at the Harkins Theater nearby, taking time for myself. Got a beer and burger (specifically their Spicy BBQ Burger) impressed by the quality of food. The bartender was fantastic, socializing with all the customers and staying on top of their beverage needs. Lively vibes with a decent amount of seating. I didn't get to explore the whole brewery, because apparently there's a backyard. Need to try their daily specials next time!“

Bad Daddys Burger Bar Burgers • $$
7450 West 52nd Avenue Ste 204, Arvada

“Was torn on the fence for this review - if I could would probably give this place closer to a 3.5 stars but it was a solid meal! I have the Denver Eat & Drink pass and this had a Bogo entree deal. I got the bistro burger (Gouda cheese, applewood smoked bacon, grilled onions, arugula & chipotle avocado crema) and my husband got the Kim's honey chicken (Our Buttermilk fried chicken breast with a spiced honey sauce, pickles and our house jalapeño ranch). The chicken sandwich was by far better - the chicken and seasoning was super flavorful. The burger was just alright for being a "burger bar" - bacon was in flavorful and overall burger lacked salt/flavor in our opinion. The side of sweet potato fries we got were cooked very well although the Frenchies brand of ketchup they carry was much too sweet. In terms of beverages, they had some really good deals. We went on a Monday and after I ordered the pint, I missed they have $3 pints of amber ales on Mondays. We had just come from Denver Beer Co in Old Town, and shockingly the DBC beers were cheaper here than at the brewery! Overall atmosphere was what you'd expect from a chainy restaurant which totally works - bathrooms were clean and our server was super attentive and nice.“

“The food was tasty and the wait staff did a good job. We came in at a quiet time in mid-afternoon so the huge empty room was a bit off-putting. But if you came on a Friday or Saturday night it would be a fine atmosphere.Parking: The Tavern and Grill are close to Arvada Olde town we're parking is very tight. But this place is across Ralston Road and there was plenty of parking.“

I loved everything, but if I had to pick a favorite, it would be the Philly Cheesesteak Benedict.The bacon flight was really fun. I can't say I knew which one was which flavor, but I enjoyed the variety and all of them were good.I'd definitely go back and dine in because I'm sure it's even better fresh.“

“Great food, the staff was friendly, worked their butts off to make everyone happy and great music. The only complaint I have is, when I receive my bill, I was charged $2.50 per cup of ice water, not a bottle of water, ice water in a cup. They need to let people know they will be charged for that or, start selling bottled water! I was not happy when I saw the bill, that is just taking advantage of their customers!“

“This is a great neighborhood spot! I’ve been here for breakfast, lunch and dinner and the food is pretty good. They have gluten friendly options which is nice. Just regular every day American food. I do wish the food was a little bit better though. This is really random, but they really don’t like how they serve the specialty coffee drinks. They’re in glass cups that are meant for cold drinks. That wouldn’t prevent me from coming here but I wish they’d change it.“

“Stopped in here for lunch the other day to check it out, and I dig it!! There's ample parking here. I came in and stood for just a second, and the bartender/server told me to sit anywhere. This is a table service kind of place, and you pay your server when done. I ordered the ultimate nachos and absolutely could not believe the amount, it was enough for 3 people. It was good, but could have stood more melted cheese and meat that seemed to be in short supply. Cut back on the amount of chips, and it would be okay. However, there was a lot of chips, and there needs to be a bit more toppings on there. How about layering the toppings on, there's an idea for you! My bartender/ server was the only one there, and my drink ran out, and it took a minute for a refill. He was extremely friendly and made me feel like I wanted to be there. Just need to check on the patrons a little more often, that's all. I'm willing to give this place a shot. All in all, 1.5 thumbs up.“
