“⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ Had a fantastic family lunch today at Salsa’s Mexican Restaurant in Wheatridge, Co. to celebrate Mom’s upcoming birthday! 🎉 The food was delicious, and the service was absolutely top-notch. The staff here truly goes above and beyond to make you feel welcome—friendly, attentive, and always with a smile. If you love authentic Mexican food, this spot is a must-visit. Everything we ordered was fresh and flavorful, and the atmosphere made it even better. Highly recommend stopping by if you’re in the area!

“This is by far my favorite place to go with my gal pals or bring out of town visitors. James the bartender always provides extraordinary customer service and delicious cocktails. The views are great. The vibes are on point. And even though seating can be hard to find, standing is so worth it to experience this rooftop.“

“Improper City is one of the few places that actually have a non alcoholic on tap along with local non alcoholic beers. Great place to enjoy the nice weather as one of best patios in Rino.“

“Interesting elevated cocktails and snappy dogs all in a chill environment. This is the catch all bar. You can have a $5 beer or a $16 incredibly well crafted cocktail. Hot dogs served late with a natural casing. Server was super friendly tonight. Never had a bad service experience.“

“Come to the Edgewater public market and have a great day, drinks, great food, ax game, our VR Arcade bar!! Highly recommend 😝😁😁“

“Great place to hit golf balls and hang out!! Great vibe, love it!“

“Kai was an excellent cocktail course leader. He gave us an amazing journey and adapted his tour based on who we were (scientists) and what we loved. We loved talking science with him and had the most unique and amazing cocktails. The best cocktail tour we have had in Denver!!“

“My wife and I had an absolute blast last night. The golf simulator was a lot of fun with a ton of options for play. The pool was free and the drinks were great.“

“Came here for my 21st birthday and it was so much fun!! Staff was so very sweet and friendly!! Amazing selection of games and very reasonable prices on drinks.“

“A low key gem situated in the Santa Fe Art District. Atmosphere is cozy and comfortable. Friends are included (Owners/operators Michael and Heather)!“

“This historic original Coors tap house is one of the greatest bars and restaurants in Denver, tucked away in the very hip Highlands neighborhood. The amazing bartenders and staff offer great service that perfectly complements the delicious and tasty food. The menu is absolutely mouth-watering, from the house-made pork rinds and tavern tots to the delicious pastrami. My personal favorite, though, has to be the green chili stew.“

“My childhood bar. Had my first drink here when I was a kid.“

“if you love vinyl and a cool unique vibe, this is the place. always a wonderful, eclectic musical discovery experience“

“Love this bar!!! It’s a complete local gem. Great vibe with some of the best drinks in the neighborhood.“

“Fantastic drinks that change seasonally, friendly and attentive staff. Great place!“

“When I have friends stopping through town on the way to the slopes or even a convention, I usually take them to Avanti. They’re gonna see the mountains, usually have a day or two planned to explore them. I think it’s nice to showcase our city skyline and the view of downtown from the spacious upstairs bar and patio. The city lights just glistening at night from that vantage point… The food court features local eateries and usually covers every flavor for a lunch or dinner palette. The vine list is refreshing... parking does stink on weekends because the area is so popular. It's got a lot of screens to watch games or open seating to catch up with friends.“

“Great food! Staff are very nice & attentive. Becca was our server & was awesome!! We will definitely come back!“

“Music playing but not TOO loud- background music. You can talk and play board games or 80’s video arcade games. Quite possibly a bar for quiet people like myself- I’ll be back for sure!“

“I was able to visit Talnua back in November and had a great time. The distillery is cozy and has a great vibe. The hostess was really knowledgeable and had great customer service. The whiskey (the star of the show) is fantastic. I left with 2 bottles and am holding off on drinking the 2nd until I know I can get back up to the distillery.“

“The cocktail bar was dark and cozy“

“I’ve had so much fun at Thane’s Table for the last few years. Every time I show up, there is something exciting going on and I feel welcome to participate. Super happy to have discovered such a magical place in my area ❤️“

“My boyfriend and I came here because we had a Groupon for a flight, cocktail, and distillery tour. It was awesome! The tour guide, Andy (I think that was his name) was very personable and down to earth. He had some good jokes/puns. The bartender was sweet and we met the owner briefly. We each chose different liquors for our flights and enjoyed each one plus our cocktails were great. My personal favorite for the flight was the V.I. Rum. After the tour we also got the maple bacon old fashioned which was different but equally delicious. Everything on the menu looked great and while we didn't try any of the food offerings, we will definitely be back. The bar was an intimate setting and the pinball machines were great. We live in Aurora but we can't wait to come back as this place is definitely worth the drive for us!“

“This place is awesome! Check it out!“

“Awesome comedy club would recommend 🍻“

“Best neighborhood bar around! Not quite a dive bar and definitely not a fancy place for fancy drinks. Most days include a great food truck right out front and large patio out back.“

“Happy hour makes their specialty cocktails fairly cheap for a craft cocktail bar!! Fantastic hand crafted cocktails with friendly bartenders, happy hour is a must here! Freshly squeezed juice and cool vibes!“

“The Black Box is a great venue. The sound system is top tier. The venue books a wide variety of bass artists, all genres, from large to smaller acts. Tickets are affordable and the staff is always polite and helpful.“

“Felt has the best atmophere, staff, food and general mgr of any hall in the denver metro!!“

“Another great Michelin Bib Gourmand find. Creative, unique Asian fusion dishes. Chef is not afraid to load up on the spice. Go here if you want something you've never had before! Been here a few times....didn't have a bad dish yet. And the staff seems happy and attentive and low turnover...another mark of a great restaurant.“

“My husband and I were looking for a night cap and found this hidden Gem! The host Lily was super sweet and our bartenders were super cool too. The drinks were good and the music matched our tastes. We will definitely hit this place up again for a night on the town.😉“

“The music was perfect for the sunset happening. Cool deep house you may hear at Anjunadeep open air concerts. Highly recommend!“

“Wow. I have wanted to visit here since my arrival in Denver and finally had the opportunity last night. The cast was surreal, the energy on stage was electric and contagious. We didn’t have to search for laughs or generate excitement for applause it came naturally and often. The entire affair was incredible and lasted far too short. Before we knew it the show had ended and curtains drawn, but left us wanting more.

Were the drinks great? Yes, but we didn’t pay attention. Food? People go here for food? Anyway, this was such an engaging time with such an amazing cast. The only tragedy here are the people that got this to a 4.5 instead of all 5 stars.

One other thing that may seem minor but when you go, be sure to appreciate the ground floor of the Clocktower as you enter. The marble splashed walls and vintage chandeliers that have been there for well over a century, looming over so many visitors is a part of history that you get to participate in. Almost observing (judgement free of course) as you descend to the basement of this magical venue. The attention to decor at TCC follows that reverence in so many subtle nods that adds to the experience and shouldn’t be overlooked.“

“To have a place to go within walking distance from my house is great! It’s dog friendly and the owners even kept a few items from the previous market! Will definitely be back and hope that they try and get some outdoor space and turn the volume up on the music! 🍻💙“

“Desert Social has been such a beautiful experience each and every time! I have attended events here and photographed them for The Friendship Mixer. I am always so excited to shoot in this earthy, moody, gorgeous space! Great service and cocktails too 20/10!“

“Love poker night and bottomless spaghetti!🍝“

“Great community-focused space for all types of events.“

“We were out of towners looking for a karaoke spot and found this gem! Great host, great singers, perfect sized crowd, and good food as well.“

“The karaoke experience with Mile High Karaoke on Tuesday nights 9-1 is out of this world. Service and Pizza from the Kitchen are absolutely top notch“

“A friend wanted to meet for dinner and mentioned tapas. Doing a quick search I came across Olde Town Social, and my friend agreed it looked like a solid option.
When I arrived, my friend was already there and had ordered an old fashion and he was quite happy with his selection and told me it was made with a smoke infusion in front of him.
When we sat down our server was prompt without hovering. He was quite engaging and we quickly established he was the owner (I am not always quick on the uptake). He answered our questions on the menu and we found out he has a history as a chef, and the menu showed it. We ordered the shishito peppers, the wedge salad and the ribs. I always love a good wedge salad, and this one didn't disappoint, in part because it was already prepared to be shared. The ribs were definitely a highlight and surprising - a unique dish that I will order again :) We finished up with some sliders.
I also appreciated that they have live music, movie nights, trivia nights and more. I will definitely be returning - solo, with friends and with out of towners.“

“Always a huge win when a food spot is super thoughtful, patient, and thorough with dietary restrictions. I felt very cared for and very seen from the menu labels to our server answering questions. The gluten-free bread was the best baguette 🥖 I've been able to enjoy in such a long time. They have a dedicated fryer and two types of fries! Great, creative cocktails with super cozy vibes.“

“Simply incredible! I had the absolute pleasure of visiting this bar last night. Upon entering this establishment, I was greeted by two of the best bartenders that I have ever encountered. Sean and Mello are fantastic. They represent everything that is good about the Mile High City. They are very polite and professional. I will definitely return here whenever I am visiting Denver.
Please keep up the great work 🙏.
Go Broncos!
