Everything was fantastic.
Appetizers- chickpea fritter, tomato burrata, and baby carrots. The chickpea fritter had a very smooth consistency like silken tofu. It was so yummy.
Entrees- braised cabbage and trout. The braised cabbage was so delicious.
We also ordered a few drinks. I had make me a gin cocktail and it was just ok. My friends enjoyed their drinks.

Wow. Just wow. I can't imagine that I would ever rave about a dish called a chickpea fritter. Chefs can be artists and whomever invented this recipe and execution clearly lives and breathes their craft with brilliant success. This isn't cooking 101 but rather a doctoral thesis on how to make a dish to such perfection that I'm at a loss for unique articulation.
The fritters: Light, soft and delightful texture on the inside and the most expertly timed sear I've ever experienced on the outside to provide the quintessential desire of crisp for such a gourmet item. The sauce and other toppings are superbly proportioned in such a manner that you can tell the chef practiced this meld of flavor to the hilt. I'm so remiss for not having returned yet as I'm writing this review months later. I'm just enjoying an onslaught of new restaurants and cocktail bars this year.
I can't recall the name of the cocktail I had - I've enjoyed numerous introductions with others over the last few months that I forget what it was but I remember that I loved it.
The scallop entree may as well be on the coast it's so fresh and again, there's another perfect sear on this item not to mention the ambrosia it's swimming in. Divinity, found.
I've been to Le Bernadin in Manhattan, Jones in Paris, Sevva in Hong Kong. I've been to Major Tom.

I had the absolute pleasure of being served by Liz at Major Tom, and she was phenomenal from start to finish. She struck the perfect balance of being attentive without ever feeling overbearing. Her recommendations were spot-on, and she made the whole dining experience feel personal and welcoming. You can tell she genuinely cares about her guests and goes the extra mile to make sure everything is perfect.
Liz elevated my visit and made it memorable—I’d come back just to sit in her section. Major Tom is lucky to have her on the team! 💛💛💛

Major Tom consistently leaves me feeling whole.
The genuine care and attention that the staff brings to every interaction elevates the already high quality of the experience to a superlative level. The kitchen demonstrates just how delicious good ingredients can be when they are prepared simply and with intention, and the cocktail bar and sommelier deliver pairings that integrate the sensory experience with selected contrast.
I cannot recommend this place highly enough. Please give yourself the gift of spending some time here.
I like it here.

This was the best dining experience I’ve had in years. The food was beautiful and delicious. Most of the menu was gluten free so I had lots of options on the menu. The service was simultaneously professional and warm- something that is rarely done. Do yourself a favor and make that reservation!

Loved the vibe and the staff here. It felt like a whole experience and was enjoyed with a group of friends. Great place for sharing and tasting different bites — recommend the chickpea fritter and the overnight cabbage. Both were very unique and layers of texture and flavor! Great drink menu too!! Went here with friends that I go to culinary school with, and they made us feel special and let us try so many things!! Highly recommend!

The oysters were great, but the burger was extremely average, while the fries and fritter were quite salty. Shake Shack is half the price and just as good. Service was standard, but did not live up to all of the glowing comments. The chef with the mustache who just had a birthday seemed to be the only staff member really invested. Overall, I'd skip this one if you have just a few days in town.

Fantastic experience! Brianna, our server, was phenomenal and really made for a very special birthday dinner. The sommelier was also great. Of course, every single dish was delicious and beautifully presented. We will definitely be back!

Food was really good but the service really makes this restaurant shine. Wine is interesting as well. One of the few restaurants in Denver that does dessert wines well.
4.5 ⭐️ for food because the challah was overcooked and the steak was a small portion (4slices) for $68
5 ⭐️ for service
Loved this experience- tiny little spot with wonderful food and attentive service- would definitely go back…
