This place has great food and drinks with great service as well. However the prices for most things seem steep for what you actually get, particularly with the food. The candied nuts are $7 and come in the tiniest ramekin with about 5 pecans in it. When asked to add one more shrimp to the shrimp cocktail to make it an even number for the 2 of us the only option we were given was to order another order of 5 for $20. A tinned tuna belly with sauce on top and room temp bread that wasn't sliced all the way thru was $30. If all you want is a few oysters and snack then this is the place. But if you're looking to have a full dinner or have something more similar to tapas, this is not the spot. Again the food tasted excellent but your dollar does not go very far.

Quality service and very fresh tasting seafood. I absolutely loved the Rhode Island oysters. Can't wait to try the happy hour. I do wish the caviar and ritz came as a pair

Jenny

Great intimate space. Charming owner. Great oysters and trout rillette. Can't wait to go again.

Cody

Always such a great vibe, very nice servers. The menu is fun and fresh, probably the best oyster I've had in Colorado.

Steve

We love this spot. You guys have done such a great job with this space. Great drinks and food

Chuck

Great small place to grab a quick snack and cocktail or wine. Very good drinks and nice and simple but also really good food menu. Views from the top floor of Stanley were amazing especially around sunset. Service was great.

Kimberly

Love it here. Feel like I am in a great little spot in NYC or Europe somewhere. Love the atmosphere they have created!

Kelly

Very cool location, great views from the barstools, and very interesting drinks and apps. Very small / intimate and a really special place to have some romantic time alone looking at the mountains and watching people from above. Soooooo expensive. We went at happy hour to try and beat the hit, but a dollar off was not quite enough to make it worth it. Doesn't matter when you go, but hh does give you a little more privacy. Good experience, once.

Cozy bar to grab some delicious oysters and a drink. View of the mountains and sunset will be even better once the park outside is complete.

Alejandra

Stellar bartender with extensive knowledge. Great staff and service. Smart and sophisticated surroundings with lovely lighting.

Andrea

Great spot in Stanley Marketplace up on the 3rd level. The cocktails have excellent descriptions, and the bartenders are extremely knowledgable about everything, including all the special house-made concoctions. The trout rillette and shrimp cocktail & sauces were delicious, we'll be back!

My wife and I had a great time enjoying some delicious cocktails and oysters here. The service was very friendly, the view was great, and the vibe was chill. They have a great happy hour deal on Tuesdays.

I’ll preface this review to say that I’ve worked in the restaurant service industry for over 15yrs, and what I experienced and witnessed on Sunday from 7:30- till closing was nothing but absolute professionalism, perfect execution under duress and an absolutely wonderful experience. This place is an exceptional cocktail bar. My teammates and I were out in Aurora searching for a fun cocktail bar to spend the evening at and we
found this absolute gem. We originally had 4/5 people at a table and restaurant was quiet, but I warned the lead bartender and server to expect some more of our teammates in the next 30min. Little to my knowledge the rest of my team (20 more people) walked in with an hour till closing and took over the bar. The two people working handled it with perfect grace, hospitality and a willingness to take on the challange of 25 people people walking in just before closing on a Sunday.! The bartender churned out drinks, calmly, while answering a swath of questions from my friends and everything was fun and delicious. Thanks for making our evening, I couldn’t recommend this place enough! (Also as a rum connoisseur this place sources some of the best spirits, and particularly their rum collection.

Thanks again!
