“My wife and I met our son and his girlfriend for breakfast at Four Friends Kitchen. This restaurant is truly a hidden gem. The servers were great and that's probably because they know their food is superb. We all ordered something different off their unique menu. Yum! Everything was delicious. I highly recommend Four Friends Kitchen.“

“Not quite Texas BBQ, but hands down the best I’ve found in Denver. The meat is always tender and flavorful (I typically get the pork and brisket) and honestly you can’t go wrong with anything on the menu. They have six house-made sauces that range with any base you would want (mustard, vinegar, sweet, spicy, etc) I love being able to mix and match depending on what I order. Friendly service and consistently good food make this place my go-to when I’m craving BBQ in the city.“

“We were here a couple times while staying at the DoubleTree. While it’s a hotel restaurant the food was fresh and the service was great. The last night we were here a couple was being very belligerent with the bartender, who handled it professionally. The service and the freshness of the food were great and we appreciated an easy option while traveling.
PS: get the nachos!“

“There are not enough stars to rate how amazing this place is. It is our first stop for every trip to the Palazzo/Venetian. Not only is it amazing, top-notch food, but the cool, boujee lounge area that is set with comfy sofas & love seats with a variety of small tables - giving the intimacy of being at home. This trip was my husband's birthday celebration and man, did they deliver. We were the only ones sat in the lounge area since they didn't have a server in that area yet. We were greeted with special birthday shots, then received a surprise appetizer before our absolutely delicious meal of their famous chicken and shrimp and grits. If that wasn't enough, post-dinner shots arrived as a surprise with a desert treat! Just amazing. We can't say enough and that's the reason we keep coming back. Soooooooooooooooooo worth it! This place is the best!“

“After a mix up ordering online and realizing this establishment no longer uses the platform Beyond Menu, Ty was quick to find out what my order was so that I could order and pick it up. The restaurant itself was clean and nicely decorated, it was a very nice atmosphere but Ty and the patrons at the bar were wonderful and kind and made picking up food all the more pleasant. The food itself - amazing. Truly every bite was delightful. We will 100000% be back and can’t wait to try more of the menu. Thank you Ty for the amazing service and amazing food!“
