50 Best American Restaurants in Aurora

“What a little hidden gem of a place located on the UCHealth Campus. I found the restaurant by doing a Google search of brunch places close to my location (near the airport). The Common Good restaurant popped up and a group of five neighbors decided to try it. We were all pleasantly surprised of how good the food was, our server (Francisco) was very attentive and we enjoyed our brunch on their patio with plenty of room and umbrellas to shield from the sun. Inside the hotel, appears to be a nice quiet bar so we will be back to try their cocktails and dinner soon!!!!“

“We had the best service I have had since moving to Colorado. The food was incredible. The service was top-notch. It is my favorite place for a special date night or for when friends & family come into town.“

“Have visited several times before. Last Thursday we tried your lunch for the first time. I had biscuits & gravy with spicy sausage and eggs over, huge and delicious. My wife ordered the veggie burger. Her salad was brought out, then 5 minutes later was advised they were out of it! She re-ordered the pot roast, but the brocolli was over cooked and the carrots were dry. Other than that, was good. There was a problem at check out with the purchase of gift cards, but was shortly resolved. We look forward to visiting again in the New Year, but only for breakfast or dinner.“

“Great service. Amazing food“

“Rosie’s never disappoints! My boyfriend and I have been going here for years now, and it’s always fresh and delicious! 😋“

“Lazy Dog is our go to spot in SE Aurora!!! It's consistently good, the staff are fantastic and it just feels like home to our family! Alyssa and Brittany are the best! Love the entire team!! Wish I could them all a shout out by name!!“

“I've been eating at this restaurant for many years and, believe it or not, I've never had a bad meal...ever. It is packed 7 days a week and there's a reason why. Beyond the great variety of food with breakfast all day (139 menu items {not including 29 drink}). the help is absolutely incredible. You can tell they love the manager, Carlos, because they function as one big family. I'm 72 and have eaten, through my career, in countless restaurants in numberous cities and for the money (quite reasonable) this is my #1 favorite of them all (including many 5 star, exclusive restaurants. You won't find Beef Wellington, Duck à l’Orange,, Lobster Thermidor, Seafood Paella, Foie Gras., or Caviar on their menu, however; Escargot if you love real scratch Mexican/American cooking“

“Just stopped by for breakfast. We’ve lived in the area for 4 years and I don’t know how we haven’t heard about this place. The service was AMAZING, everyone was so friendly, the food was delicious and I will be coming back!!“

“Awesome wings!! Great food overall and will be coming back!“

“Hi, my name is Colby Reeves and I live in Great falls Montana and came to Denver and the surrounding areas to visit with my family and came to eat here last night!!!! I had the chicken strip platter and it was the best chicken Tenders I had in a very long time but, my two sides were French fries and coleslaw and I have to say the fries and the chicken were great but, The coleslaw didn't have much dressing on it than I originally thought but, everything tasted really good and our server was Ben and we sat in the bar and he was on point on everything we needed last night!!!! So, overall everything was amazing last night“

“It was a great experience and a fun football Sunday at this place! The food and drinks were all tasty, came out quickly, and huge portions! Our server, Justina took wonderful care of us, especially with my in laws in town visiting. She was such a pleasure and so sweet to them! They left feeling very happy as it was their last day with us!“

“Great Mother’s Day breakfast!“

“Mommy and daughter’s date night“

“being just beyond the golf course this place is a classic place to return back to every time - not sure if they still have the cigarette vending machine but that was a classic fix and i recommend noonan's“

“Big Culver’s lovers for 10+ years we are so happy to have one closer but not too close. Disappointed that they don’t have a handicapped switch to open the door. I thought all new construction was required. Also friendly staff wished us goodbye and have a nice day but didn’t offer to open the door. Not great wheelchair accessibility The food and small wait were excellent however“

“First time today. Great burgers and sandwiches. All the staff were super nice snd friendly, manager came and talked to us. Will definitely visit again.“

“2 of us enjoyed our lunch, 3rd person did not but I don't think it had anything to do with the food, I think they ordered something they normally do not order and didn't like it. They have a great menu, great drinks and reasonable prices.“

“I've only eaten here twice and only had the burgers, but they're amazing. I will have to try other things eventually. The place was clean both times I've been here. The building is a bit run down but it was plenty clean, especially for a burger joint. Prices are reasonable too especially compared to chain restaurants.“

“Previous visits were questionable… But this visit, was excellent! Came in for a simple burger and fries…
Service by the bartender was great! Speed of the food was excellent! Taste of the food was outstanding! Overall, glad I came in! Thanks guys for doing a great job tonight!“

“My first time at this restaurant. They had a band on a Friday night. There is a giant dance floor and the senior community filled it up. I had the shrimp louie off the appetizer menu and shared a bottle of Pino Grigio with my friends. Whenever i go back I will always order Shrimp Louie because it was delicious. Prices are the best part.“

“The hash browns are fantastic.“

“Real friendly staff and patrons. Prices are very good. Cool little bar and restaurant tucked off of Gun Club/30 on a residential golf course.

Kid-friendliness: Would be, but it's more of an adult golf-like scene

Wheelchair accessibility: Accessible“

“I love, love, love this place! Especially the cafe that’s in the building. It’s my daily treat to grab a coffee, snack or dessert. The best part is the staff. They are so friendly and accommodating. I’ve eaten at the restaurant a few times and have gotten the poke bowl and the chancellor both 5/5. The fries are amazing.“

“Great place for some breakfast after a long, frustrating round of golf.The staff is friendly and the cook makes everything with love.The portions are just enough and the price isn't too bad for what you receive in quality.Not necessarily a diverse menu but it's not needed for this establishment - just order something and enjoy!“

“We only went to this location because it was close to our new home and we wanted to eat dinner out instead of in the senior living community dining room. I was craving steak! They don't feed you steak where we live. LOL I know, I know, it's not a steakhouse but they did a pretty fair job of it. The steak was cooked as ordered and the service was good so we have no complaints.“

“We had a wonderful experience at the hotel. Our flight was delayed coming into Denver by 3 hours due to bad weather. When we arrived after 11 pm we were met by a friendly staff.
This morning at breakfast Lisa went out of her way to bring not only a smile to our faces But most importantly she was thoughtful, friendly and also very accommodating in every pods way. We will be back.
Thank you Woolley’s!“

“We had a wonderful meal with a lovely, attentive server. Thanks Genie!“

“Margaritas and Fajitas! Great Service provided by Alex! The bottomless chips and salsa, the vegetarian fajitas and the presidente margs are my reason to live! Thanks Chili's!“

“Delicious food! Great service! My absolute favorite place to dine!“

“Seasoned Swine is great BBQ restaurant. Great menu. The BBQ is really good. I usually just get a platter so I get a taste of everything. Highly recommend“

“Delicious food and great staff! Nice decor and atmosphere. Highly recommend. I’ll definitely be back.“

“Ciria was the most personable and welcoming server we've ever seen! She surely shines above and beyond any customer service I've ever experienced I am grateful to have gotten to meet her and she has made Denny's a new favorite of ours for cold nights. Also idk what she does but her hot chocolate is better than any I've ever had.

Wheelchair accessibility: Parking lot, lobby, tables, and bathroom all accessable for a wheelchair.“

“Went for my wife’s Birthday, and they took good care of us as a party of 9, they did great keeping up on our refills and singing their Birthday song and gave her a free slice of pie and a picture frame. She loved it, thank you for the great experience.“

“There is always excellent service here!
The place is a classic sports bar. The tables are a tad sticky from time to time.
The food is definitely some of the best bar food around here. I recommend the fried mushrooms! My biscuits and gravy were pretty good! Big portions and well-made food made food. It's definitely worth checking out!“

“This cozy little coffee shop has a nice selection of food, pastries and drinks hot and cold. With indoor and outdoor seating, there's always a good place for visiting with others or losing yourself in a good book while you enjoy their offerings.“

“Thank you Brittany. I love coming here. It is the perfect little place. The food is great but up until today, I always have to ask for water...twice...and then for a straw....twice. today Brittany was my waitress and I was given water and a straw and she was friendly and warm and well....I just wanted to commend her as well as this super place that is my go to for my private spot for my quiet breakfast time.“

“Highly do not recommend. The waitress was super sweet. Food was terrible. Our whole table said their food was terrible. Immediately after leaving everyone got super nauseous and some had major 💩 . This is all I ate all day, so I know this is to blame. Not a good place to go. Over priced for not a good experience“

“Great service friendly waitress. Great wings ! Overall great experience and staff“

“Chelsie made a night out with the family something to enjoy? she was very attentive... Very quick and very sweet! The place was quiet as well which was nice at the end of a long week? Thank you Chelsie you were literally the best!!!!

Kid-friendliness: Very sweet to the kiddos?“

“Love the wings super meaty and so many options“

“I just had one of the best experiences at Woodys. (and I'm a Colorado native) I have gone to Woodys as long as I can remember. I think people are so quick to forget we are in a hiring crisis everywhere due to the pandemic. The team at Woodys proved they have been able to rise above that, and still provide an awesome and attentive experience. Kudos!“

“I haven't been to this highly rated bar and grill. My friend Annette and I are going to stop by in the next few days; we really want to visit with Vanessa.“

“Wings were on point . Spicy lemon pepper is amazing. Beach fries are to die for. Visiting from Texas and I’ll definitely come back next trip ♥️“

“Great food and service. I look forward to coming back“

“Food and service great! The “only three stars” is because the canned red blend wine was awful. Tasted like a blend of Welch’s grape juice and church wine. Server and manager were great in their response to how much I disliked it though“

“Fantastic service, the bar/wait staff are personable and friendly. Our food was outstanding. Great, thick hamburger, wings are nice and crispy, and my wife's chicken strips were really tender and moist. There was a cool band playing a bunch classic rock and they were really good. Such a fun night. Definitely recommend Oasis Grill (and I think band was called 6202)...“

“I 100% recommend the rock restaurant. I have been coming here for over 2 years and every time I have the best service. The whole staff is amazing and they find so much passion in their work. Especially Lindsay B. It has been so incredible to be able to get to know Lindsay and the whole stuff. The staff integrity towards their customers is phenomenal. The price and the food quality is so amazing. I definitely recommend The Rock Restaurant & Bar. Thank you so much for the amazing service!!“

“Fun night out with family they had karaoke“

“Service was amazing! The waiter: Israel was awesome! The food was perfect! I give this restaurant experience 5 ⭐️’s👌“

“I cannot say enough great things about the staff and service at this location! We were at a soccer tournament a couple miles away and the majority of the team decided to grab lunch together between games. I called ten minutes before they opened to see if they could accommodate 25 of us and when we all started arriving they had everything ready for us. It ended up being more like 35 and they still made it work. They did a great job keeping everything straight and getting the food out in a timely manner. Our team definitely has a new tradition when we play in that location again because Chili’s was so great to us!“
