“Love this place!! Enjoyed a dish(es) from each category of the menu which is uniquely broken down from apps to street food to cold dishes to main courses (probably not exact description to their own!) i love the street food section of the menu and all the raw options. this is where you should really hone in on things to try in my opinion!! Such an extensive list of mezcal but I do wish my server was more knowledgeable of the flavor profiles of them - I wanted something bold and smoky (being an avid lover of all mezcal) and was brought two mild and less robust ones. My boyfriend loved the uni river scallops (for all uni lovers this is a must). My favorites by far include the toro tostada and the pescadilla de marlin. The atmosphere is lively and so fun with the unique spanish music covers playing in the background. I would recommend this for any Mexican food lover wanting the ultimate elevated dining experience with great liquor options.”
“Soooo delicious! Just had one of my best meals out in a long while! Every item was delicious and save room for the fried milk dessert — trust me! Plus a great Manhattan with Japanese whiskey”
“Our server Mary was amazing this Saturday! She was nice and super accommodating. The food was fantastic and I would love to eat here again!!!!”

“A queue was already forming before it opened and we can see why. Food flavors pop and crackle! We had twice cooked pork, fried rice with duck, crab noodles (don’t miss this!!), sweet and sour beef….but the absolute star of the night was the pea shoots. Could have had 3 serves of that. The food tends to be spicy so beware but it’s worth sweating through it”
“Incredible experience! Stunning food and incredible preparation the thoughts behind the craftsmanship are mind expanding. You owe it to yourself to experience this epicurean adventure!”
“I did some research on local restaurants before my 3 day trip to Denver and was so happy to have found Lucina Eatery. Let's start with the vibe and atmosphere. I felt right at home. The staff was fantastic from Alexander Moon (GM) to Billie (bartender with the right amount of sass, playfullness and desire to please). NOW FOR THE FOOD. Well I went back 2x over the 3 days the food was so good, I sat at the bar (a lot of fun since I was by myself) and felt totally welcome and comfortable. THE CEVICHE and BROCOLLI were to die for. I have 4 orders of Ceviche. I love this place and will be back”

“Our favorite neighborhood spot, hands down! 5 Stars, no notes.
We adore Kaos. The food is amazing. The pizza is our go-to every time, and the wings are some of the best we’ve had anywhere.
But what really keeps us coming back is the staff. Every single time, they’re fantastic: friendly, attentive, and genuinely funny. They make you feel like a regular from the moment you walk in.
And the patio? The best in the neighborhood. On a nice evening, there’s no better place to settle in with a pizza, a plate of wings, and good friends.
We’re so lucky to have this place down the street!”
“Go now! Request Laura Clark as your server. Sugar rub your steak, celebrate a loved one AND THANK ME LATER OMG😍”
“And gluten free options too”
“great staff, great vibes! Absolutely recommend if you're brewery hopping or just looking for a great spot to take a date!”
“Amazing service, great food, fun atmosphere. Jack’s was outstanding in every way.”
“Best Food truck around! The "CBR" is sooooo good!”
“This review is for Santos Cafe & Grill 1141 Syracuse St, Denver, CO 80220. I found this place online and had to try it. It sits in a strip mall that is well taken care of. Going inside, it was practically filled up. It is order at the counter unless sitting outside, which we did. A QR scan brought up the menu. A waitress appeared shortly thereafter. I had a Torta, with al pastor. It was a freshly baked crisp bread with melted cheese, lettuce, tomato, pineapple and avocado. My companion had the steak enchiladas smothered in red. My sandwich was delightful, and the enchiladas were meh. They have no liquor license, so we got permission to go the liquor store two doors down and got some beer. We saw several customers with Concha Mexican sweet bread with glazed topping, which seems to be popular but not on the menu. I’ll be back to try the pupusas! Interestingly, there is a driving school in the mall, so lookout for rookie drivers.”
“Excellent place to watch a game and the pizza is delicious!!”
“Fantastic local bakery! They baked two cakes for us very last minute which saved the day (although you should be sure to order a week or so in advance).
She made for us an olive oil citrus cake (also available by the slice in-store) and a chocolate ganache cake. To top it off, she provided a homemade whipped cream for the citrus cake.
Overall, a very delightful little bakery which comes highly recommended and thoroughly enjoyed.”
“Stopped by while at City Park Farmers Market last weekend, and glad I did. Best breakfast burrito I've had in quite awhile; my partner loved her breakfast sandwich as well. If you're vegan, give this a try. If you're not, also give this a try.”
“Fantastic dining experience. Worth the trip every time!”
“We had such a nice time for our office holiday gathering. Great service, fun atmosphere and tasty unique small plates.”
“This was the best sushi I have ever tasted in my entire life. I have never been to Japan but I can only imagine that it tastes like this. The yellow tail sashimi was AMAZING. It was so buttery and smooth and it tasted so amazing. I can still remember how incredibly it tasted and my mouth is watering thinking about it.”

“We ordered the Duck Ramen and it really hit the spot! The eggs were cooked perfectly. Amazing ramen after a long hike on a cool evening in CO. The spicy chicken ramen is said to be the favorite.
We loved the atmosphere with fun music. The servers really knew what they were doing when it came to selling and recommending dishes. When we turned down repeat cocktails, they immediately brought over a menu for us to pick something new to try. The service was kind, through full and really put us at the top of the experience.
We will be coming back the next time we want a cozy post hike comfort meal!”
“JINYA is excellent. The food is great and we received wonderful service from Rena!”

“Rougarou is easily one of the best restaurants in Denver. Incredibly delicious menu, creative wine and cocktail list, warm hospitality, epic playlists, all in a very intentionally designed space. If you’re looking for an approachable yet upscale, celebrate any night of the week, favorite dinner or neighborhood drink spot… it’s Rougarou.”
“Need a date spot where you can talk about books and music you love? How about a quiet, beautiful nook to have a heart to heart with your bestie? You can even bring your whole family and friends to host a baby shower— like I maybe did. 😄 This place is so welcoming and cozy, truly unique for a space in Denver. Named after a cute corner of Brooklyn, Fort Greene bar has the NY charm. Hands down favorite bar in the city. ❤️”
“The food was amazing. Wine list was great. Very small, intimate setting for maybe 20 guests. The chef does everything, from greeting you when you walk in, taking your order, cooking your food, delivering your food and drinks and clearing the table. Only downside is after 12 years he is closing to pursue another opportunity at a different kitchen.”
“Best restaurant in Denver in my opinion. The food is beyond amazing, with lots of options great portions compared to restaurants at a similar level and is a perfect spot to go with a big group so you can try everything. Every dish I try becomes my new favorite! You have to make a reservation and try it.
My faves include; drinks - lychee martini, pearing knife. Creamy spicy tuna, Szechuan edamame, Szechuan dumplings, crab fried rice, lamb dan dan.”
“Variety like I have never seen before! Menu offers so many choices that I had to venture beyond my tried and true favorites. I usually have Palak or Saag Paneer. I tried a different paneer and the honey curry. Chef noted my desire to stay on the mild spice side. The tandoori chicken wings were among the tops of my wings experience. If you are there for happy hour (starts at 3 pm), you must try them! I ordered a large amount of food so I’d have leftovers to take home.”

“I rarely go to Dennys but I was in the mood for simple breakfast and our sweet waiter Domingo made my experience here. The room is more spacious and cleanly than a typical Dennys. The food was just right as expected. The Denver Mile High Omelette had crisp bits of pork ham and creamy American cheese. Although I am satisfied with the food I am more satisfied by Domingos friendly smile and attentive service.”
“Pre TSO concert lunch. Trying to find out if they were open today was a challenge I think the website reservation system was not operating correctly. Finally I found they were fully booked for the day which meant I could get my usual seat at the bar. I arrived for 1 pm opening and was told they would be open 1:30 or 2. I had a view from my car and about 5 minutes later (about 1:10) they opened. I mention this because the woman who had the unenviable task of turning people away did it such a pleasant way that it was hard to be upset. I always sit at the bar since I come solo. Service was excellent and the food was actually better than I remember it being. As with all things all it takes is one person to make a visit memorable. The door-woman was one of them and the bartender, Kandra, was the other. If your party is 2 or more always make a reservation. If you are flying solo get in line early to grab open seating in the bar.”
“Came for the coffee experience, will return for the cocktail experience. I tied a seasonal (autumn) mocha called Nana’s, my partner enjoyed a pumpkin spice latte and the Mighty Aphrodite avocado toast, I had a taste of the A toast it was delicious. Everything was great, servers have character, we enjoyed ourselves !”
“**2025 update - I recently ordered lactation cookies from Courtney and started them a couple days before my c section delivery and I swear they made such a big difference in my milk supply coming in right away - and are so good I had to tell my husband they were off limits! I am now completely hooked and reorder every two weeks. If you’re a new mom, soon to be mom, or just want to give the new mom in your life a gift - order these ASAP.
10/10 recommend! We used flour power for our wedding and she made the most amazing cake pops and mini Oreo cheesecake bites - all of our guests are still raving about them 2 years later! She worked with us to customize the order to match the aesthetic and everything was delicious. She has since made other treats such as cookie bars, cake pops, and birthday cakes and it never disappoints! Book her today - you won’t regret it.”
“George thank you for my order I could not wait to get my pound cake and share with family and friends. I don’t care where you go I will find you for these cakes. It don’t matter what ones you order. They all are sure to please. So proud of you keep up the great work. May the Lord continue to bless you. Now time to have some cake. 🙏🏽🙏🏽😃☝🏽”

Takeout Restaurants
“This restaurant(s) is so unique and incredibly sophisticated no matter what venue you are looking for this is the place! The atmosphere is awesome due to the incredible décor, large screen, a multitude of different type of seating, large TV’s located all around the bar! The service and restaurant is second to none! The bartenders are so professional and friendly. Believe it or not we were actually asked if we were satisfied with our drinks! We were politely and professionally served our many food and drink selections! When our pizza slices were served, my mouth dropped, because I have never seen slices of pizza so huge! I have not had a slice of pizza that was so good with just the right amount of tasty toppings on mine! We ordered chicken wings, half naked and half buffalo wing sauce. The chicken wings had been fried to perfection and was so good we could not make up our minds which type of chicken wings was the best, so we called it a pleasingly tie!”

“Tasty, creative ice creams in a quiet, pleasant neighborhood. They have many unusual flavors available at any given time drawn from a pool of over 100 flavors. When we went the service was excellent, helpful, and friendly. It's not posh inside, but who cares when you have delicious ice cream in front of you. Looking forward to exploring more of their menu.”
“Our waiter was spectacular and was an ultimate holiday treat .”
Drive-Thru Restaurants
“Awesome food with energetic vibe. The tomato tart dish was excellent. The scallops and beef dishes were cooked perfectly. Overall great. None of the dishes were too heavy so we were able to enjoy dessert. The sorbet complimented the meal nicely. Perfect for a night on the town.”
“Best ramen EVER! We stumbled upon Uncle over a decade ago, and since then anytime we’re in CO we come for dinner. The spicy chicken ramen is hands down the best, love all of the bao buns, eggplant is my favorite, but can’t go wrong with crab or pork belly ones either. We’ve never had anything bad, service is always great too! Be sure to make a reservation.”
“We are so glad we stopped to try something new! Excellent customer service, we were greeted as soon as we walked in and given an amazing rundown of all the delicious food they have to offer! Baklava was perfect! I can’t remember the name of the meat pastry but it was so good!!”
“This place is absolutely amazing! I ordered the Steak Frites and chef cooked the steak to perfection. So good!”
“This place seems full of stories, from the entrance to the menu to the bathroom.
Definitely visit.
I'll be back. Hopefully many times - lots of inspiring menu items i didn't get to try.”
Fine Dining
“I had the pleasure to eat at this fine establishment over the weekend with some great people! Let’s just say Sushi Den do not disappoint for my fist experience and will definitely be back. Everything was awesome from the cocktails to the Nigiri and high end Whisky!”
“What a phenomenal experience my husband and I had tonight! First off I should say we have never experienced a dining experience like this before and we were not sure what to expect, but we were blown away from start to finish! As we first walked into the restaurant we were greeted with a huge smile and warm welcoming from the host Lana, who kindly sat us at our table. Immediately as we were sat we were greeted by Adam the bartender with a glass of champagne! I mentioned I was pregnant and couldn’t not drink and he immediately apologized and offered me a sparkling nonalcoholic champagne. My husband also ordered a cocktail and Adam was very thoughtful and made me a mocktail (actually 2 different ones) both were absolutely delicious. After we were settled in that’s where the fun began. The Head chef Michael came to the table and introduced himself and explained the menu along with asking us if we had any dietary restrictions, or didn’t like anything specifically. We ended up going with the Chefs tasting menu to get the full experience. Each course was brought out by the Head chef or a staff member and was explained to us in detail of how he came about the dish itself along with how it was made and the ingredients. From the mini plates to the main course to the mini dessert to the main dessert everything was made with passion and love for food! My husband and myself are both very blown away from this whole experience and very grateful for the way the staff and the entire team worked together to make this an unforgettable experience that will never be forgotten!”
“We chose Restaurant Week to visit this restaurant. It was lovely. Food was fresh and excellently prepared. The staff was welcoming and our server was friendly. The restaurant is not in our neighborhood but we may go back. The food and service was certainly worthy of a return visit.”
“Oct 2026 update: Was in town and came back to Shanahan's for a second time. It was better this time than it was my first time. We were sat at the same table oddly enough. We ordered the seafood tower and the wagyu skewers. The skewers were off the charts delicious. The truffle mac and cheese was amazing. We got the filet this time and it was cooked perfectly. This is my favorite restaurant in Colorado.
What a phenomenal restaurant. This place nailed the modern but classy feel to a fine steakhouse. But to have the football history with it as well was a nice touch. I don't come from an NFL team state so it was cool to see some trophy's up close.
I was amazed at the amount of staff they had to take care of you. The service was top notch and as good as I've seen it anywhere.
Onto the food. We really enjoyed the salads we had as appetizers. We had the wedge salads. They were fantastic. For entree's we did more of a family style and tried a porterhouse steak and Chilean sea bass to share amongst three of us. For sides we got potatoes and brussel sprouts. The steak was perfectly cooked to our temperature of choice. Flavor was amazing. They brought out hot plates with butter in it. The sea bass was a thick pieces and had really good blend of flavors. It might been a touch overcooked, but it was still tasty. The sides were very good.
We ended with dessert. Key Lime pie, creme brulee, and cheesecake. The creme brulee was one of the best I've ever had. The cheesecake was 2nd, the key Lime Pie I would pass on.
I look forward to coming back when I am in town.”
“This one of a kind omakase experience was unforgettable! Chef Paul thoughtfully curated the menu based on his travels and heritage to his Laos culture which is so unique. The food was delectable and the drinks were complementary to every bite. Highly recommend!”
“There’s really no way to explain how good the food is, how intimate the service is, and how much you learn about the seafood being prepared right in front of you. It’s a wonderful departure from the busy restaurant style, and you are the focus of your meal. If you would like to experience Private Chef Style dining, this is it. Make reservations. There’s only room for 10 per session, and they do 3 meal sessions per night. The chefs aren’t just great at cheffing, they’re great at making you feel like you have been acquainted for years.”
“We were in town for my Birthday, and booked a reservation based on a great recommendation. Everything about this dinner was nothing short of outstanding!! The food, the service, the drinks, the atmosphere made this night so perfect. Absolutely amazing!!!”

Cheap Eats
“Do not miss this small gem near downtown Denver! Whether your knowledge of tea is extensive or very basic, the staff seems happy to help you find a brew you'll like. I enjoyed my first matcha, alongside an absolutely delightful salmon sandwich. Allow some time to browse the eclectic book selection, and just enjoy the vibe.”
“Quince Coffee House is an amazing place with a warm and welcoming environment for all patrons. The owners truly care about their craft and this is reflected by their incredible staff. If you are looking for a coffee shop to change up your routine, this is the place for you!”

“You will not be disappointed here! Everything was delicious! We ordered the chicken street rice, pork street soup, green curry and Kho Soi with fried chicken(my favorite). Food was authentic and the flavors were perfect. Had the mango mojito to drink and mango sticky rice for desert. The family loved everything!”
“Excellent food and service! Highly recommend. ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️🇺🇸”
“Went to the Plimoth for the first time last night! What a Culinary treat. Farm to table food created by a chef that owns the restaurant. Highly recommend!”

“Leven’s is incredible. The food is homemade. The flavors big and bold and delicious. And the service is the best I’ve had in years. Makes me wish I lived closer. It’s that good.”
“It’s been too long since I’ve returned to this gem. Fantastic service, creative dishes that use only the freshest ingredients available. Perfect date night, whether it’s your first date or 50th anniversary. Highly recommend.”

“I would move to Denver just for this place alone!! Love love love!!”
“Great pizza and wings. Fun for the kids and always wonderful service!”
“This is by far my favorite place to go with my gal pals or bring out of town visitors. James the bartender always provides extraordinary customer service and delicious cocktails. The views are great. The vibes are on point. And even though seating can be hard to find, standing is so worth it to experience this rooftop.”
“we had such an amazing experience for Mother's day brunch. We look forward to returning for dinner.”
“We tried 3 of the desserts, steak and 4 appetizers. Everything was phenomenal and we can't wait to go back!”
“This place is amazing starting from the incredible experience with Robin whom went above and beyond to Coordinate an amazing event. Meegan and Orlando were so incredibly personable! I enjoyed the atmosphere, the food was great. I got to meet the awesome serving team and head chef, everyone was kind and made sure to check on us. I watched all the staff work together to make sure our food for a party of 40 was delivered quickly. I appreciate you all for everything you did to make it a successful event and for the hard work everyone puts in here. From our team to yours cheers🥂!”
“Service was phenomenal and drinks were fantastic! Charles took amazing care of us!”

“Our favorite Indian Cuisine. We love to go here after church with family and friends. The food is superb. 🥰”
“A friend who frequently travels to Denver raved about this restaurant, so I was eager to experience it for myself. Upon arrival for brunch, My other friend and I received a warm welcome and prompt seating. Our waitress Erika and her assistant were exceptionally kind and attentive. The food was a true culinary delight . I can’t recommend Rioja enough!”
“Nozomi is my go to sushi spot in all of Denver. The quality and service is top tier. Don’t even get me started on their happy hour, the food and drink is beyond worth it. The nigiri is always fresh and tastes delicious. Highly recommend this spot to anyone.”

Breakfast burrito, tenderbelly bacon, fresh squeezed orange juice.

“Cherry Cricket Burger Bar absolutely knocked it out of the park! First off, the remodel and vibe are incredible — such a fun, fresh atmosphere. I’ve been very cautious about eating out lately, and OMG… huge win that they offer burger bowls! I always order my bun on the side, but I didn’t even have to because they have an amazing burger bowl option for any of their burgers. Another thing I loved: when you order fries, you can choose a single or double portion instead of being forced into getting two sides. Someone definitely put a lot of thought into this menu, and I appreciate it! The bison burger was to die for — seriously drooling just thinking about it. We will 100% be back! *Broomfield location”

“A true and unique culinary experience. I’ve read about Bruto but the experience has completely solidified my position on it being one of a kind and rightfully given the Michelin rating.”
“We love everything about Watercourse! Excellent food, service, and atmosphere!”
“Great pizza and excellent staff. Thank you for the best pizza in Denver.”

“I ordered the chicken miso ramen for take out -- i didn't realize until I was eating it that I've actually never had *restaurant* chicken ramen before (only ever chasu pork restaurant ramen, or chicken instant ramen). It was absolutely delicious! Not quite as heavy and creamy as chasu pork ramen, which was what I was craving. It was still plenty hearty and satisfying, while also being a more fresh option than traditional ramen. I didn't stay long in the shop, but it had a great atmosphere!”
“Great, attentive, and friendly staff. Food is fantastic, Excellent choices for all. Amazing mussels and pasta to Octopus that is unique and delicious! Highly recommend”
“Our Mother’s Day event at Postino 9CO was incredible. Molly Jones offered incredible thoughtfulness, kindness and service as the person in charge. And, as usual the food and wine selection is simply incredible. We will be back”
“We had lunch there and found the menu quite interesting. At the end we both chose a healthy option and we more than pleased.
Service has been excellent, too.
Thank you and many regards from Germany.”

“My friend and I were here for dinner tonight before an event at the Denver Art Museum. We were very happy to have a healthy meal. My salad had fresh, crisp greens, shrimp, nice chunks of avocado, red onion and fritos with a cilantro dressing on the side. It was tasty and filling. Tim was our helper and he was very friendly and accommodating. I would definitely return when I'm looking for a light, fresh meal that I can eat in a quiet setting.”
“When I stopped by your shop, I felt very welcome! It was a little busy but a lot of selections for the bakery.. If you like Sweets the cakes are reasonably priced? Depending on how many people you are looking to host? I would recommend your business.....! A friend of mine used you before. I like the organization, with the candle and much more... I would also suggest that people do a in store visit!!!! To make sure they have the right fit for the cake needed..................A lot of customers say good things about the biz! I”
“Pretentious “modern “ look, very narrow place, tiny 15x15” wall mounted tables, one toilet only. Sushi : 60% rice, inferior gluey without vinegar seasonings,stingy on ingredients, comparable to King Soopers. Makes one wonder about the authenticy of those reviews”
“We bounced around town looking for good tacos for a couple of years, and this is our favorite. Both of us. The staff are friendly. We always get a smile at the register. The tacos are wonderful and they are stuffed. The ingredients are fresh. The restaurant is always clean.”

“Jordyn helped this rating go from 4.5 to 5. The food was great, the atmosphere was awesome, but the service was fantastic. Jordyn always made her check ins right at the right time, anticipated our needs perfectly, and was so incredibly kind and knowledgeable. We don’t come often to eat here, but that might change now with how exceptional this visit was. Thanks Jordyn for the exceptional service and recommendations, and for being so friendly and comfortable with us and making our kids happy at a restaurant!”
“Oct 2026 update: Was in town and came back to Shanahan's for a second time. It was better this time than it was my first time. We were sat at the same table oddly enough. We ordered the seafood tower and the wagyu skewers. The skewers were off the charts delicious. The truffle mac and cheese was amazing. We got the filet this time and it was cooked perfectly. This is my favorite restaurant in Colorado.
What a phenomenal restaurant. This place nailed the modern but classy feel to a fine steakhouse. But to have the football history with it as well was a nice touch. I don't come from an NFL team state so it was cool to see some trophy's up close.
I was amazed at the amount of staff they had to take care of you. The service was top notch and as good as I've seen it anywhere.
Onto the food. We really enjoyed the salads we had as appetizers. We had the wedge salads. They were fantastic. For entree's we did more of a family style and tried a porterhouse steak and Chilean sea bass to share amongst three of us. For sides we got potatoes and brussel sprouts. The steak was perfectly cooked to our temperature of choice. Flavor was amazing. They brought out hot plates with butter in it. The sea bass was a thick pieces and had really good blend of flavors. It might been a touch overcooked, but it was still tasty. The sides were very good.
We ended with dessert. Key Lime pie, creme brulee, and cheesecake. The creme brulee was one of the best I've ever had. The cheesecake was 2nd, the key Lime Pie I would pass on.
I look forward to coming back when I am in town.”
“We had a fantastic experience at Venice! We’ve lived in Denver for 20 years and we never knew this place existed. Great atmosphere and the food was amazing, so authentic! We went with our 3 kids (13, 10 and 10), they ordered off the kids menu and loved the fettuccini Alfredo. The service was excellent, and our server, Gillian was on point. I can’t say enough good things about him. We will most definitely be back. I would recommend this place to anyone. This place is really nice and intimate feeling. Great for a date night or a family dinner, so long you have well behaved kids who love good food.”
“It was one of the most enjoyable experiences I've ever had at a restaurant. The service was unbelievable. Gus was our waiter and I don't think I could thank him enough for this amazing visit. I brought my family in to eat.. it was our first time eating some of the delicious seafood they offer and Gus went over the whole appetizers and dinner and how to completely enjoy every bite!! I will absolutely come back and visit and it will not be soon enough!! Thank you Water Grill. I wish you had location in Minnesota!!”

“I wish I could give 5 million stars!! I can confidently say this is the best meal in general I've had ANYWHERE!! I went with the fried chicken and good god every bite sent me into another dimension even further than the last. The single little biscuit especially made me want to tear off my shirt, jump up on the table, and dance out of pure excitement for how tasty it was. I will be talking about this restaurant forever and recommending to everyone I know!”

“We had a great time at BearLeek. We booked at the chefs counter so had a fabulous view of the kitchen. All the staff were so lovely and made great recommendations. The food was so delicious and so were the cocktails and mocktails we had. We will def be back on our next trip to Denver.”
“I’ve been to other omakase experiences in Seattle, San Diego, Washington DC, etc. This is hands down the best experience I’ve had so far in the US. The ambience of the omakase counter is perfect. Hard to put into words but they nailed the ambiance. It felt like I was in Chef Kizaki’s home kitchen with a mixture of laid-back yet fancy vibes. The service in the entire room was never overbearing, they check in on you at all the right times and it adds to the whole experience. Chef Kizaki, Kyle, and the entire staff were so welcoming and I cant thank them enough for their explanations of all the courses and warming hospitality. All the courses were superb, and the beer/cocktails were on point too. If you want to watch masters at their craft, and you have a true appreciation for the effort that goes into all these dishes, then please go here to support Chef Kizaki and their team. I cant wait to go back with friends!”
“I recently placed a last minute order for catering for 40 people at my home. Larry was phenomenal to work with! He was patient with all of my questions and was able to alter my menu a couple times without making me feel like I was being annoying. Additionally, the price was incredibly reasonable.
I'm from Texas and the food we had from Riot was PHENOMENAL. We will 100% be repeat customers!”
“Date of visit: August 20th 2026
The food was great, as was the service.
It was too loud, I could barely hear the person sitting across from me when talking loudly. Combination of music being too loud so everyone else had to talk louder. Could have been the spot I was sitting in closer to speakers and kitchen.”
“Delicious gelato, unique flavors (passion fruit is divine), great ambiance and friendly service every time! I love how the chocolate pudding isn't too sweet. Drinking chocolates are incredible, good for a cold winter's day. Highly recommend! We'll done John & Keith!”
“I think the food is exceptional, the Shawarma both beef and chicken are both excellent. The Lamb and Kofta as well. I get both plates and sandwiches ($11 for the chicken shawarma Sammy is an amazing deal) several times a week and I can’t get enough. The portions are generous not to mention the complimentary lentil soup is fantastic. The service is always fast and friendly. I just can’t recommend this place enough. I’m excited to try the burger next.”
“The best Manhattan I've ever had! My husband and I shared the robust charcuterie which was absolutely delicious. The warm bread and spicy honey and fresh apples *chefs kiss*. My daughter had the chicken bites and they were literally freshly made nuggets! So delicious. And the fries! They were the crispy ones with the seasonings, you know what I mean. Yum!”

“Wow!
Such amazing service by our server and the team.
The food was also delicious. Definitely good food, but the service took this above and beyond.
Would recommend the lamb.
Latte was a bit foamy :O”
