“I leave this review solely for the waitress we had because is was awesome and I feel bad I didn’t get her name but I think it starts with an M.

Anyway we were out celebrating our friends birthday and she was just a great waitress like had not had that dining experience from a waitress in a MINUTE. She wasn’t all over our business but she was attentive and kind. Kudos to her!“

“What a phenomenal experience my husband and I had tonight! First off I should say we have never experienced a dining experience like this before and we were not sure what to expect, but we were blown away from start to finish! As we first walked into the restaurant we were greeted with a huge smile and warm welcoming from the host Lana, who kindly sat us at our table. Immediately as we were sat we were greeted by Adam the bartender with a glass of champagne! I mentioned I was pregnant and couldn’t not drink and he immediately apologized and offered me a sparkling nonalcoholic champagne. My husband also ordered a cocktail and Adam was very thoughtful and made me a mocktail (actually 2 different ones) both were absolutely delicious. After we were settled in that’s where the fun began. The Head chef Michael came to the table and introduced himself and explained the menu along with asking us if we had any dietary restrictions, or didn’t like anything specifically. We ended up going with the Chefs tasting menu to get the full experience. Each course was brought out by the Head chef or a staff member and was explained to us in detail of how he came about the dish itself along with how it was made and the ingredients. From the mini plates to the main course to the mini dessert to the main dessert everything was made with passion and love for food! My husband and myself are both very blown away from this whole experience and very grateful for the way the staff and the entire team worked together to make this an unforgettable experience that will never be forgotten!“

“Went to the Plimoth for the first time last night! What a Culinary treat. Farm to table food created by a chef that owns the restaurant. Highly recommend!“

“This place is amazing starting from the incredible experience with Robin whom went above and beyond to Coordinate an amazing event. Meegan and Orlando were so incredibly personable! I enjoyed the atmosphere, the food was great. I got to meet the awesome serving team and head chef, everyone was kind and made sure to check on us. I watched all the staff work together to make sure our food for a party of 40 was delivered quickly. I appreciate you all for everything you did to make it a successful event and for the hard work everyone puts in here. From our team to yours cheers🥂!“

“What an outstanding experience it is for the tasting menu, we devoured every succulent mouthful! Incredible flavors, we loved every course, we enjoyed so many creative cocktails, and mocktails, hot toddies, a gastronomic feast for your taste buds! Of course the service was just as outstanding! The dessert was orgasmically good! As a lifelong white wine drinker, I enjoyed the best glass of white wine ever thank you, Sam, for introducing a new variety grape I just love“

“Love this place! Great service and fantastic food!“

“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! 🥔 🤤😸“

“went with a friend. never again! was told it would be a 30min wait it looked not very busy. waited 45min to be seated. (The host seemed like she did not like her job at all) i ordered the avocado toast w/ side of bacon. the arugula piled high ruined the taste of meal, the tomatoes sliced where not ripe too hard to chew, the bacon was hard like it had been sitting around for a while. and the bread was thick and dry with barely any avocado. my friends meal all American breakfast cold potatoes and not good food she barely ate any of it. no apologies just an over worked waitress. ive been to syrup (different place) before way better food and service worth the extra drive!!!!“

“Excellent food and service! Highly recommend. ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️🇺🇸“

“Fantastic dining experience. Worth the trip every time!“

“Amazing food, service, and atmosphere 💕“

“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!“

“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“

“Great breakfast and brunch menu. Awesome food selection.“

“Best food in Denver and the only good late night food in lodo.“

“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!“

“GREAT PLACE, GREAT GOOD!!“

“One of my favorite restaurants in Denver!! Highly recommend it!“

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

“I reserved a seat at the bar! The place was fancy and beautiful. The jazz band was amazing and really classy. David’s group was inspiring, and the piano player blew me away with cool chords and original songs. The service was awesome, and the drinks were top-notch. Great place! 🎹“

“What an incredible experience! I’ve never been to a restaurant where the chef does it all.. not only is that aspect impressive but everything is incredible with so much flavor and so much thought behind each dish. I love that it feels like a small and cozy spot. Can’t wait to go back!“

“We had the best service I have had since moving to Colorado. The food was incredible. The service was top-notch. It is my favorite place for a special date night or for when friends & family come into town.“

“great and chips, we ordered a meat pie to go after the dine in and it wasn't that good though. so maybe stick to the fish and chips“

“If you’re looking for a great breakfast spot, give this place a try! Don’t let the old-school décor fool you — the food is absolutely worth it.

I had the chicken fried steak with eggs, hash browns (one of the Westy’s specialties — Mexican Breakfast delicious!), and a huge pancake on the side.

They’ve been around since 1984 for a reason! The staff is friendly and knows all the locals. Nobody leaves here unsatisfied.“

“If you're looking for a venue to casually watch music in a boisterous crowd, maybe cut the rug for a few, this place isn't it. If you're looking for an evening of Jazz from the best local talent and national traveling shows paired with classic cocktails and a solid wine list, this is your place. The intimate theater seating and open stage make the perfect backdrop for the experience. It's been a great addition to the downtown theater district. The music scene is rich and varied in Denver with all sorts of venues for all sorts of tastes. This is the place where you can get a little dressed up, avoid loud crowds and just have a full, immersive music moment. I always have a terrific time!“

“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“

“Hidden gem in Lakewood for breakfast/lunch. Fresh made biscuits daily. They always have buttermilk and a rotating biscuit of the day with great sandwich options 😋 solid coffee as well“

“Una comida deliciosa , muy limpio y sus empleados excelente ⭐️ lo recomiendo 💯 % riquísimos los Gyros y las papas fritas wow 😮“

“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.“

“This is my favorite restaurant! The food has a sensuous and complex flavor profile while also being rustic Italian. You will not find a better pomodoro sauce anywhere unless your grandma is from Italy and has a long held family recipe. The pasta is hand made and has a perfect texture and amazing flavor with the sauce. The house made buratta is the freshest, creamiest and thickest you’ll enjoy outside of select NYC restaurants that are famous for making their own mozzarella, ricotta or buratta. And the staff treat their guests like they’ve invited you into their own home. Jessica was amazing! All together, going to Luca’s is like getting the perfect big warm hug.“

“Best food in Arvada Colorado right now!“

“I have eaten here twice within the last 2 months. First time, I had French toast, eggs over easy, sausage, and hash browns, and it was all delicious. The second time, I had the breakfast sandwich with 2 eggs over easy, cheese and bacon on sourdough, and that was also delicious! Their food is like home-cooked and not frozen, pre-made food.“

“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.“

“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!“

“Well deserving of its praise!! We brought our huge family here & ate pretty much everything on the menu. Great atmosphere, wonderful & attentive staff. We walked in at 4 on a Friday & sat right away.

If you come for happy hour, the tinned sardines are a MUST. They come with freshly made, warm bread, incredible butter & a tomato pairing. So crazy good - we ordered 3. Their pizza dough/bread is just that good. Fluffy, airy, crisp. Delightful.

Their new squash is also tasty! A perfectly soft and sweet squash paired with goat cheese.

Pizza - the daisy is wonderful & a must!! Well balanced in toppings & flavors. We also thoroughly enjoyed the white pizza! Creamy, yet somehow refreshing.

Pasta - Nicely made pasta, al dente! The sauces themselves lean on the saltier side, so it's definitely intended for sharing and having one or two bites per person at most.

The olive oil cake dessert is so good! Lovingly paired with lemon curd to cut the fattiness.

Worth stopping by just for the bread alone.“

“best wings. varied sauce menu. can get wings Xtra crispy. friendly staff. good service.“

“We went for the Liverpool game while visiting from out of town. We would love visit again soon.“

“Lisa's is absolutely amazing and the staff there know us all and we are treated like family at the restaurant. The food is top notch and this is been one of the best breakfast spots near us that we go to. All the servers are always smiling and keeping the coffee full. If you want a great breakfast with conversation and a good smile, stop on by Lisa's place“

“Good food and service every time 👌🏼“
