“Table 6 in Denver’s Alamo Placita neighborhood delivered an incredible dining experience with each dish showcasing farm‑to‑table freshness and creative flavors. From the tender broccolini and creamy carrot hummus to the perfectly seared grilled beef coulotte and rich duck confit, everything I ate was exceptional, and the chocolate beignets provided a decadent finish. The service was attentive and friendly without ever feeling rushed, making the evening both comfortable and relaxed. The atmosphere is chill and unpretentious, perfect for a laid‑back night out with friends. I’ll definitely be back soon!“

“we had such an amazing experience for Mother's day brunch. We look forward to returning for dinner.“

“my favorite restaurant, amazing chicken ,chicken gravy omg the best ,love it all ❤“

“Be aware they are now charging a “service charge”. It’s was not noted on the menu nor did the server inform us of the charge. The only reason I found out is I requested a printed receipt. The receipt recommended an additional tip be between 2-7% on top of the charge. Yet when I paid the machine prompted an additional 15 or 18% tip so I tipped 18 even tho our service was bad cuz I use to be a server. The unfortunate part is I didn’t look at the receipt for over a week after I visited. I’m very disappointed that I’m being charged a “service fee” and at no time was it ever brought to my attention that this is a new thing.“

“Best food in Arvada Colorado right now!“

“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“

“Best meal ever! We eat out plenty, but this one is up there. 🙌 We had the pork chop, clam chowder (special for the night), Gorgonzola stroganoff, bread pudding and crème brûlée. Great service, great food, great atmosphere. It was the kind of place where you aren’t even sure what you want your last bite to be because it you want it all one more time. 10/10 recommend!!!“

“Jamie - it’s clear that everyone appreciates her, customers and coworkers alike. She’s friendly, even-keeled, and at ease, even in a rush. She’s wonderful and attentive. A clear multitasker, serving and behind the bar. I’d come back just for her level of service but the food is not to be ignored either. Definitely became one of my favorite brunch spots in the area, easily. Food came out fast, hot, and delicious. I sat in a seat for way too long and wasn’t bothered or pushed out. Will absolutely be back. Thanks Jamie and Rupert’s!“

“We had the most amazing experience at The Original. It was our birthday and my sister and I went to enjoy breakfast. We had the most genuine, kind server name Teej and he made the whole experience just absolutely amazing. The management and Teej were so sweet to us and just made us feel so so special. And then on top, the food was so tasty and flavorful. I would recommend this to anyone and everyone to go enjoy food and the wonderful service here!“

“Cordon Bleu Philly extra wiz!! #YuCantMiss #TasteOfPhilly #Drank_SumnApproved“

“We ordered the “walk with us” & it was sensational!

The service was wonderful and we were even able to chat with the chef. There were flavors and textures I never knew existed. Everything was cooked perfectly and tasted absolutely delicious.

We both left full and happy with the selection of appetizers and sides as well as the serving sizes for two.

note the 22% service charge wasn’t disclosed prior to receiving the check… but if you aren’t able to tip you probably shouldn’t be eating out.“

“The food was prepared very well. The items were very hot. The food came out in a timely manner. The service was phenomenal. Our server was Kayleigh. She was very polite, attentive, and catered to our needs. She was very friendly. The atmosphere was very pleasing. The building decor took you back in time. The lighting was very subtle. I didn't find Ted's to be expensive. It is on par with most restaurants. I enjoyed my meal, the service was excellent, and the setting was perfect. Definitely will be back to enjoy 😉“

“Everything was good except the way that we started off the night. We were there to celebrate our anniversary, which they did bring us a complementary glass of champagne, which was very nice. As petty as it is, we had three minutes to spare for the happy hour, and by the time the waitress came to us the time had expired. We tried to order a drink at the last minute, but she wouldn't even entertain it. When you're spending $250 on a meal and the weight staff can't even help you to get a cheap drink right out the gate. It sets a bad experience. Customer service lacks when you have a two hour happy hour and you can't validate a last-minute request. It just looks poorly on such a high establishment that they're not willing to give you a small discount at the last minute. “

“As a Denver local, I genuinely appreciate places that make you feel welcomed and included — and Apres at Governors Park absolutely does that.

The staff is incredibly friendly and attentive, and they are truly dog-friendly (not just “dog tolerant”). My dog Pablo loves the attention and has basically built a social calendar here — shoutout to Cookie, Caitlin, and Lisa. It’s such a relaxed, no-fuss environment where you don’t feel like your pup is a burden.

The atmosphere is awesome — especially the outdoor seating with gas fireplaces. It’s cozy without trying too hard and perfect year-round.

Food-wise, you can’t go wrong with anything on the menu. Personally, I love the lemon cake and the fish and chips — consistently great every time.

Also, if you go on a Tuesday, Tricia is fantastic.

Highly recommend. Great food, great vibe, great people. It’s places like this that make Denver feel like home.“

“On our way home from Denver to the Springs, we stopped for a bite to eat and by chance I found this little spot. It was AMAZING. Everything we had was perfection. 🤌🏼 From the margaritas, entrees and even the dessert and not to mention our WONDERFUL waitress Georgina. Haven’t left a restaurant this satisfied in a LONG time. Definitley recommend if you’re in the area. 👌🏼“

“Oh my gosh the tater tots are amazing! I’m talking some of the best Taters I’ve ever had, they’d make Frodo and Sam cry! The menu is unique and very tasty the desserts are great too. Will come back! 🥔 🤤😸“

“My kids love coming here for their huge kids' menu. My wife and I love going for breakfast. Very cool location and easily one of our favorite Broomfield restaurants!“

“1st time visiting. Loved it! Great customer service. Very clean. Food was so yummy 😋 Typically not a pancake or hash brown eater, but highly recommend the hash brown casserole and pancakes with eggs and bacon. Country store very charming!“

“Damn good sandwiches. Best on Tennyson, although I know Eloise is popular it is not as good unless you are a huge fan of Texas toast and it is more expensive . Have tried twice and will probably keep going back until we get through the whole menu. Sorry my pictures kinda suck.“

“The food quality is amazing and the staff is friendly. We gladly come about once a week. It's our go-to place for breakfast and lunch. Everything we have tried is so delicious. I highly recommend Off Campus Cafe.“

“I’m from Chicago and love gourmet dining in that city. Imagine my surprise when I entered the wine bar at Satchel’s with a group of friends to be seated for a wedding luncheon that began with the first of seven tasting courses of food that was beautifully presented and absolutely delicious! Andrew, the chef/owner, is not only innovative with ingredients, but he and his staff really care about their customers’ pleasure and comfort. If I am ever able to return to the Denver area again, Satchel’s will be my first go-to destination. The luncheon was 1st class all the way.“

“Best lunch in Denver hands down!“

“We came for a birthday celebration and enjoyed the unusual cocktails as well as the food. The server was helpful and knowledgeable about the drinks and the girls at the check in were very friendly and accommodating. This is such an unusual experience. Would certainly recommend“

“This is a hidden gem of Denver and as the name states - it will REVIVE you! This is a breath of fresh air for the neighborhood. try the gumbo, the Revival burger, and DEFINITELY go listen to all the amazing musicians that grace this place. The drink menu and specialty cocktails will knock your socks off. Do yourself a favor and give it a go. You will be happy you did.“

“we were in the area for a mini vacation (my sister and i). initially we were walking to the brunch nearby but as we were passing by, we changed our minds and went in. after seeing the cowboys game on, we sat down near the TV it was on. I asked if it was possible to change the TV behind my sister as well since we will be sitting across from one another. it was playing the Olympics races and nobody was watching (1 booth other than us and 4 people bar top). after it was changed, we ordered our food and drinks. a kitchen staff joked about the cowboys with friendly bantar before returning to the kitchen. shortly after, the general manager (I was unaware at the time) came from the kitchen and changed it again. I said excuse me several times to him and got 0 acknowledgement. the bartender shrugged his shoulders and looked away from me. I spoke to Anthony as there wasn't much time left on the game. Anthony attempted to talk to him and he said there were people watching the game. the game which was not put on until AFTER we requested the change. while I'm not one to sweat small stuff, I work in customer service and with 6 mins left on a preseason game, what's the harm? at least acknowledge me when I speak to you. let's come to an agreement. instead, I turned my chair around and waited to eat the appetizers sitting behind me on the table until the game was over (a whopping 4 mins) I don't get time to catch many games, was on vacation and wasn't being rude about it. i love sports and trust, I would've been stoked to catch the baseball game he changed it to AFTER the football game. and I would've been the only customer paying attention then too. so finally I was loud and thanked Anthony for his friendly demeanor and caring about his customers. I said it very loudly since I could not get acknowledgement when speaking politely and directly to him. what do ya know? now we hear me in the kitchen and have plenty to say. with music playing and food being prepared no less! I enjoyed the food. probably the best wings I've had in ages! the beer cheese soup was delicious. I enjoyed our waiter's customer care. without him, we would've walked out. food is top notch. caring about customers, not entirely priority. we don't visit often so it isn't a huge loss that we won't be returning because of one person. Definitely ask for Anthony if you do go!“

“Amazing service by not only the floor staff, but as well from management! Colorado Campfire, feels like the type of bar where everyone knows you name. You feel invited and welcome. Eva is a excellent mixologist. Johnny was extremely helpful when deciding what food to order and Reese handled a 10 person table with ease.

10 out of 5 Stars

I've found my watering hole.“

“Seriously one of the best meals of my life! Back in Denver on 20th August and coming back!“

“Wonderful service and food to match!!“

“Trudi was our server today she was fast and friendly! Would go back and ask for her to serve us again.“

“The a/C barely worked I should have went with that and left. I ordered a turkey burger. It tasted like a freezer burned patty, not like the thick hand made patties they use to serve. The bun probably 3 days old. The fries were good as was the waitress. I won't go again. They obviously have cut the quality WAY down.“

“The sausage flatbread was incredible! The green pork chili was great too!“

“steak 🥩 and eggs breakfast“

“My kids love coming here for their huge kids' menu. My wife and I love going for breakfast. Very cool location and easily one of our favorite Broomfield restaurants!“

“atmosphere, staff, and food was great!!! cool spot for a good Friday night out!!!“

“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!“

“Love what their doing with the old Lowry AFB property. Can't wait to check out the remainder of it!“

“We had a great experience last night at Ocean Prime! Derek the Mgr was fantastic. His recommendations were spot on. Luis the server was amazing! All the attention to details did not go unnoticed at our table! Thank you for a fabulous dining experience“

“The only thing was that the waitress didn't mention that the soup counts as two sides. We were charged an additional charge for the other side and wondered why. Would have been nice to know this before hand because it doesn't say this on the menu. Oh well. Food was good at least.“

“One of the best chicken sandos I have had. Sauce was amazing, chicken was great quality. Hawaiian Mac was okay but maybe I am just not a fan of it. Lemon chicken sando was also really good. Highly recommend for lunch spot. Check out izzio for dessert.“
