“I had the beet salad with country fried tofu. The salad was great, though the tofu didn't taste like a whole lot. The person bringing it gave me some hot sauce to go with it but I think if I were to do it again is want something creamy to dip them in for flavor. I recommend the more open seat toward the front. I love the concept and it means you can meet new folks easily. I had a very helpful server who answered all my questions, so A plus on service.“

“Flight was canceled out of DEN so I booked a room at the Westin. Went down to Grill & Vine to get some food and see more than the inside of a hotel room. Food was phenomenal, and Tyler was so friendly and kind as my waiter. Even when having to step away for another duty he made sure to let me know and that someone else would be around to check on me. It was such a refreshing atmosphere while I ate and read my book. Definitely needed after a long morning of lingering around due to delays in flights.“

My wife plate took more than 40 minutes and was a salad. It's not a great place for finding gluten free dishesParking: Big parkingWheelchair accessibility: There is plenty of reserved parking. Ramps to access all places.“

“My mom and I prefer this Red Lobster location over the others, it’s worth the drive to eat here! The waiters are consistently professional and the biscuits are consistently done just right. Whereas recently we visited the Alameda location in Aurora and it was the opposite: waiters were not as professional or friendly, the biscuits were overcooked, and our food seemed like it was hastily made. My mom said her salmon tasted much better at the Southlands location. Plus it’s less crowded at Southlands and we always get a seat immediately!PS the Southern Tails dish they have right now is **chefs kiss**, my favorite part is the Mac and cheese.“
