“I have been here NUMEROUS times. It’s my friend and I’s favorite place to go! As usual the drinks were ✨ chef’s kiss ✨ and the experience was unmatched. Vibes completely immaculate, music choice was impeccable, and overall 11/10. My friend and I who are frequent patrons were so excited to take our three friends and hyping the place up and it was not a disappointment in the slightest. Our night surpassed all expectations we set for them! Derek was an absolute riot in the best way and made our night fun and memorable! He was exactly what the table needed & wanted & we are so appreciative. A huge THANK YOU for making my birthday feel great!“

“Great product. Nice people. My extremely discerning guests have confirmed that the ease of serving this Classic Manhattan has not compromised its quality. I keep this product on hand to welcome unexpected guests and to offer a quality cocktail at impromptu gatherings.“

“It was my first time going here. We didn’t have reservations so we had to sit either at the bar or outside with heaters. We chose bar. It was so cool to see the kitchen making food, and the cooks are so great. It looks like they enjoy their job bc they were smiling and laughing and I personally appreciate that. We ordered the calamari which was 10/10 and fish and chips which was also 10/10. We got 2 beers with our meal and the key lime pie which was 7/10 bc it had a ton of whipped cream on top. So it came out to close to $100. This is definitely my fish and chips spot from now on! Also shout out to Jenny our waitress, she was incredibly sweet!“

“My book club went in during valentines wknd and I’m sure our server was disappointed we decided to order ala carte rather than their $$ tasting menu but she was very gracious and gave us great service nonetheless. We ordered a wide variety of things and while I didn’t try everything - the katsu was a hit, the mushrooms and calamari were also good…the hummus plate on the other hand was a slap in the face. It was maybe a tablespoon of hummus with a few scraps of bread. On the topic of cheap toast - the GF focaccia was literally just toast. Not sure why you would force focaccia to be GF and then do such a bad job of it. For a higher end restaurant, they either need to remove that item or do it justice. Drinks were great & they seemed to have a good wine selection.“

“Gorgeous place with amazing drinks and top-notch service!“

“High-quality cocktails in a relaxed atmosphere.“

“OMG! What a great experience“

“omg, you have to find this place. text ahead to make reservations. the hostesses and our sever Liam were great. Liam recommended the perfect drink for me. just tell him what you're in the mood for, and he'll zero in on a perfect drink. You sure feel like you're in the 20s and doing something you shouldn't be doing when trying to find the place to walking down the dingy halls to the bar itself. Worth it. Great for date night. Note: just do what you're told, have patience, and a have a great time.“

“So much fun! With the best service to the decor this place did not miss … and they validate your garage parking Special shoutout to The manager Savannah who was soooo friendly, welcoming, and knowledgeable. Along with Sidney our bartender Noe our server 10/10 Must check out!“

“Love this venue. Crafted cocktails good sound“

“My favorite coffee shop in Denver. Can't wait to go back!“

“We had a great experience at La Foret. The drinks and the food were amazing! The staff was amazing! The were kind, accommodating, friendly, and funny. We will definitely stop there again when we are in Denver.“

“The bartender Paul is awesome. true Artist“

“Kicked me out of a bathroom because of my perceived gender. Which is illegal in CO. Transphobia isn't okay. Make sure your security is up to date with the LAW. Edit: I've since went and spoken with the new manager there and she was so compassionate and empathetic and said the way I was treated is not in line with the principles of Beacon and she's still learning how they operate around there but she's definitely notices somethings about the way it operates there and plans to make changes and that she hopes I'll be able to come back and be comfortable. And I'd love to, Heaven was so sweet and I'll definitely be back and really believe this place can change for the better it is a lovely spot and has a nice atmosphere for the most part.“
