The best meal I’ve had in Denver. The price tag is hefty. But wow.

Love the set up. Food was delicious of course. Noise levels were slightly too high and servers a bit too quiet so hard to hear. When you pay this much those things matter

Second time at Bruto and somehow made the first great experience pale in comparison - a delicious diverse tasting menu with some of the best bites I’ve had - in particular the bread (on a different level, best I’ve had anywhere), white asparagus/sablefish, and duck with kale were stand outs of a stellar meal. Great cocktails as well. At times felt it was punching about its 1 star weight. Highly recommend.

The food was great. The atmosphere was immediately welcoming when we first came in. My wife and I wanted to try something new, something that we do not normally visit. We were happy to have visited this restaurant. The staff was friendly and was proactive to ensure our wonderful experience. I really encourage everyone else to try this restaurant at least once.

We came here for my birthday in November, and we were sadly disappointed. We always love to get wine pairing with pre-fixed dinners but this was such a disappointment. They never explained the wine we were tasting, and majority of the wine tasted flat, lacking depth and way too sweet. We were also surprised to see some drinking among the staff. They didn’t seem like they were tasting it rather taking a full gulp of wine here and there right in front of us at the center of the kitchen. It felt like a frat house serving us dinner. The vibe was not professional and actually confused us a little. For the price, we expected a lot more. Sadly, we won’t be returning.

A fabulous restaurant, fantastic food with a 1st Class service! Watching the team work is like watching a play in a theatre! Everything is very precise, like clockwork! Can’t wait to visit again the next time!

Truly incredible from start to finish! The entire staff is so friendly, knowledgeable and thoughtful. From the moment we walked in, to the moment we left, we felt cared for, and the food was absolutely phenomenal! My husband and I are still talking about some of the dishes. We did the wine pairing and the selections were perfectly aligned with each course (love that they have a focus on biodynamic wines).
Kudos to chef Byron and his team for making our dining experience so memorable - we can’t wait to come back!

Each and every course was a meticulously crafted culinary work of art! Along with their non-alcoholic pairings... blown away. Thank you 🙏🏼❣️

From the moment I walked in, I felt like I was part of some private club where you have to know somebody to get in. The ambiance was dark and moody, but the service was warm and inviting. I was surprised to see that the chefs were the servers. They explained each course with passion, and a true understanding of the sourced ingredients. I’ve had plenty of tasting menus, but nothing on this culinary level. From the first course of wagyu tartare, I was hooked. Side note, I hate Kale, like really hate it, but somehow Chef Byron Gomez made me magically love it. The food is amazing, it’s actually unexplainable. It’s something you have to experience yourself. The only down side is that I’ll never get to have any of these courses again, as the menu changes often, and I won’t be back in Denver soon enough. Hopefully, I will be back for another seasonally curated experience. Thank you to the team, you guys really made me feel like I was part of this culinary journey.

One of the few Denver places I've been that actually lives up to the hype. Every course we had was absolutely unique and like nothing I'd had before.
The most amazing culinary experience I've had yet. From being greeted by the executive chef with his mission for food to being served the most immaculate and creative dishes while feeling always cared for by the staff, I could not be happier to have spent my time and money here.

Incredible experience! I would highly suggest doing the mixed beverage or wine pairing add-on. I personally felt this was the most memorable part because the drink for each course complimented the flavors of the food perfectly. One of the courses and cocktail pairings specifically felt like a hug for the soul - the Rye + Truffle with the Black Garlic Adonis. The level of thoughtfulness, passion, and creativity that went into this dining experience were palpable. Thank you!

I had high expectations for BRUTØ, particularly since its received a Michelin star, but the experience ultimately fell short. While I applaud the creativity and conceptual ambition behind the eight-course tasting menu, I was disappointed by the limited variety of ingredients, protein, and overall substance of the meal. Five of the eight courses centered on inventive deconstructions and reconstructions of grains and vegetables. Although these dishes were technically fine and tasty, they lacked the depth and memorability one would expect at this level. A greater emphasis on protein would have provided balance and contrast. Ultimately, the experience did not feel adequate at the $175+ per-person price point. Perhaps expanding the offering to a twelve-course menu could create a more complete and fulfilling experience.
