"Service was amazing. Best service we have had in a very long time. Food: we ordered Ramen, calamari, crack chicken, salmon and yakisoba. Everything was flavorful, perfectly cooked and seasoned. Ambiance: lively, warm and inviting. Has an industrial modern feel."

ChopHouse & Brewery

★★★★☆ 3.9 (827) • $$$$

"Chris was our server and was amazing! He gave awesome recommendations and was super attentive and friendly! Food was also great, we had 1/2 order onion rings (you can ask for a massive 1/2 order which still was a lot), salads, and crispy calamari for starters. Dinner was a delicious orange marinade salmon (great!) and hubby had prime rib. He said the seasoning on the prime rib was different, but still decent. Desserts looked good but we were stuffed. A bit touristy and crowded since it's next to the Coors Stadium, you never know with places like this if the food is going to be OK because of the location, but actually, Chophouse was pretty good!"

Nonna's Italian Bistro

★★★★☆ 3.9 (676) • $$

"Lovely, wonderful place. Highly recommended. The food is fantastic, the service impeccable, and the ambience is upscale yet relaxed. Nothing pretentious about this restaurant, just high quality dining with great service. I've been many times with numerous friends and will be back again."

"WOW! If I only had one word to describe this place that would be it! WOW! The staff, the food, the setting! This place was amazing, stumbled across it while searching for a place to eat for my birthday dinner. The price was even better, ordered drinks, appetizers and dessert all under $100?! I will definitely be back and will always recommend this place."

Mona Lisa Fondue Restaurant

★★★★☆ 4.1 (584) • $$$

"My husband took me to Colorado, so, you'd best be sure I'd find a wild experience for dinner. This restaurant, Mona Lisa, located in Manitou Springs was just what the doctor ordered. Experience we received, for sure. It was interesting to cook our own food table-side but the experience was a true pleasure. Everything was so delicious that we had to take the desert home! Most definitely best for romantic dates... it's quite upscale, and I felt spoiled by all the service upgrades we normally don't get in restaurants that fit our budget! #monalisafonduerestaurant #gourmetrecovery #goodeatsontheroad"

"Delicious and friendly! They were very gracious in adjusting the lunch special to gluten free for me, everyone was friendly, and the ambiance is relaxed enough for a lunch break also great for catching up with a friend. They are quick enough also I would easily do a business lunch here. Thank you!!!"

Postino Broadway

★★★★★ 4.5 (431) • $$

"Postino has consistently good food and I love the bruschetta board. There are so many varieties to choose from and they are all so tasty. They also have sandwiches and salads. This location has a nice patio out back - with umbrellas and misters to cool off. The service was quick and friendly. There is only street parking which could be hard to find but it's worth that minor inconvenience."

Venice Ristorante & Wine Bar

★★★★☆ 3.8 (598) • $$$

"I think this was the best food we tried in Colorado, probably the only place that compares to the NYC/LA level of food/service. We wanted to eat across the street but didn't like the ambiance so came here, it was Sunday evening and place was pretty full. We didn't make a reservation, and they had a nice table for us. Service was outstanding, guy was speaking half Italian and half English, which was pretty cool. We appreciated that even though we don't speak Italian. They brought fresh bread that was warm and very delicious. They also had a long wine list, so definitely can find what you like. We started with a salad (artichoke and mozzarella), was very well done and unique. We both had different types of seafood pasta, even though we were told that seafood in Colorado is not good we decided to order anyway, and we were pleased to have a great meal. Place is super pleasant and modern and also great location. Definitely recommend"

Pizza Republica

★★★★☆ 3.7 (523) • $$

"The planets must've aligned last Wednesday or we missed a full moon or something. The location in downtown is good but this location in DTC is great! Kevin was our waiter and took care of us from beginning to end. He struck up conversation, made suggestions and was ever so confident with pairing wine with the ladies in our group.The food was on point like the service. Meatball as an appetizer followed by a salad and everyone got pizza for themselves. It worked out and we had a great time catching up. Wish there was more to add but this is as top notch as it gets! Thanks Pizza Republica!"

Indulge Bistro & Wine Bar

★★★★☆ 3.8 (456) • $$

"We arrived to town after a long day of travel and just needed somewhere to get a good meal. We found this bistro and wine bar with a decent menu that has flatbread and burgers, though they are a little pricey I think it's apropos for the downtown area.The service was fine but a little short. It was still happy hour but they didn't offer us happy hour, though they did to the next table. We were too tired to argue. Ordered some spicy burger with cream cheese and it was amazing. Really hit the spot. Their cocktails are tasty. The cherry drink that came in a tall glass was too easy to drink at $15 each. The dining room is intimate, with nooks and crannies for small parties. I asked the server if the garlic fries come out crispy. He said they did but I asked for him to request a new dish. They were bad. They should have never left the kitchen. The pic included has the fresh fries that were perfect. Good spot for a decent meal in downtown. Just don't expect much."

Postino 9CO

"Lunch with coworkers and good food is always a great way to break up the work day. My partner and I have had Postino in the pandemic days for a holiday treat and enjoyed it back then. Today, I sat inside and got to experience Postino in an entirely different light. We ordered from their brunch menu and choose paninis and salads. Our service was great, pricing from the brunch menu was perfect and the space is gorgeous.I'd love to come back and try other items on their menu."

Swirl Wine Bar

★★★★☆ 4.2 (314) • $$

"Warm, 'from scratch' good food sounded great on this blustery cold Saturday! Four of us met at Swirl for drinks and lunch. My HOUSE GRILLED CHEESE w brisket was wonderful and filling! Soft baguette, with several types of melted cheese and a roasted tomatoes. Other friends had the BEEF SHEPHERD'S PIE and INCLINE SALAD, both raved throughout the meal how good the food tasted! Jolliet, our server, kept the front room moving by herself on this busy lunch ride, our water and drinks were never empty! Although we didn't have wine, it was clear from the menu (and pairing suggestions) that the owners know what they are doing with bringing in a fabulous wine selection. Two people, lunch and drinks = $67"

range

★★★★☆ 3.8 (380) • $$

"When I stumbled upon Range while looking for a new place to try for a pre-show dinner, it checked all my initial boxes - great reviews, good-looking pictures, and (above all) a stellar menu. I made my reservation immediately.Fast forward a few weeks to the night of the reservation. My friends and I arrived and were promptly seated. First impressions: love the interior; perfect mix of elegant and cozy. The first thing to snag our attention on the menu was the drinks, specifically the cocktails. So many compelling options! It's one of those places where you're reading through the menu and you think "that looks good...oh, that one looks good, too...oh wait, THIS one looks good, TOO!" and so on and so forth. After much deliberation, I got the Buttered Rum Negroni and thought it was divine.We settled on the Baked Camembert for an app (delicious, loved all the little accoutrements), and then got the Moulard Duck Breast, Mediterranean Pasta, and Warm Brussels Sprout Salad w/ Salmon for dinner. Safe to say, all three of us were pretty enchanted with our dishes! My sister loved the olives and artichokes in her pasta, and my friend who got the salad raved about it. The duck (my dish) was cooked perfectly (so tender and juicy and delicious) and the scalloped potatoes were a perfect side.Overall, we really liked this place! The location is ideal if you're walking from the DCPA for a pre-show dinner, but also definitely worth a visit, regardless!"

Vista Vino

★★★★☆ 4.3 (292) • $$

"I'm only mad I did try this place sooner. Everything we ate was phenomenal and the service was excellent. The bread was included and came with olive oil and balsamic. I'd recommend this place based on just the bread, it was a fresh, well-seasoned, flavorful focaccia. We also had the burrata, lobster ravioli, pesto gnocchi, and tiramisu crème brûlée. I get the impression that it was all made from scratch- I'd give every single thing we ate a 10/10. We've had a really hard time finding an Italian restaurant that has both good quality AND quantity. We've found it's either high quality, creative, from-scratch and tiny portions or low quality, boring food in large portions. Vista vino is the sweet spot. Their dishes are creative and flavorful, made with quality ingredients, and you really get the value in what you pay for. We are excited to go back and try out more of their menu."

"Such a beautiful and well taken care of space. There were so many fun food options to choose from, so we decided to come back once a month and try everything lol. I love that all the sitting areas have water and cups and cloth napkins for you to help yourself to. Outside had an area for people to play cornhole too, such a great idea."

Venice Italian Restaurant

★★★★☆ 3.6 (344) • $$$

"I've been to Venice more times and for more occasions than I can count. I was honored to be invited to a friend's parents 57th anniversary. It's been a few years since I have walked through the door.The place is bigger with an additional private room as they took over the space next door this also includes the bigger front bar area. Still the dimly lit white tablecloth place I fondly remember. Ambiance here is everything for sure. Dimly lit, attentive but not overly intrusive service, low background music adds to the evening and not overpowers conversation. Wine list is on an iPad which is fun. Still the food I remember and will now crave again for weeks. This is definitely a Daye night , special occasion kind of place. Go and give yourself a nice night out."

"We had a very nice experience here. Cute intimate little restaurant with great food and drinks. Nice place to hang out with your friends.Came here for dinner one night, we chose it because my friend loves her cocktails. And she was definitely not disappointed. We ordered a couple of small plates to share, tapas style. The food was very unique and absolutely delicious. I thought it was very creative on the chefs part. I did also try a couple sips of my friends cocktails, and they were all absolutely delicious. Service was nice and friendly, the whole place was very intimate and hip. We had a nice time."

Narrative

★★★★☆ 4 (243)

"We stayed at the Jacquard hotel in Cherry Creek North and dined at their restaurant, Narrative for dinner during our stay. The place was packed, and we were seated in the main dining room. The aesthetic of the restaurant was airy with clean lines and a white bookshelf wall display was the main focal point.Our server Mariah was fantastic! She recommended each item we ordered and knew the menu inside and out. The Lobster Corndogs were served with jalapeño hot sauce & smoked pepper honey.The Tuna Poke was made with avocado, sesame ponzu, green onion, yuzu kusho, & furikake rice crackers. This starter was fresh & bright - the tender fish, creamy avocado, and delicately crisp rice crackers had a really good texture combination.The Caesar Salad was made with romaine, shaved pecorino, buttered panko, & cured egg yolk. This was one of the best Caesar salads we have had in Denver - the shaved pecorino generously coated each leaf of the crisp lettuce. The Braised Short Rib was made with mascarpone polenta, roasted mushrooms, hazelnut, & orange mustarda. The short rib was so tender it fell apart under our forks. It had a robust flavor of succulent beef and combined with the mascarpone polenta, it made for decadent bites.The Diver Scallops were made with butternut squash, parsnip, roasted apple, & cider gastrique."

Shanghai Kitchen

★★★★☆ 3.7 (257)

"It's nice to have a go-to restaurant in your direct vicinity and I must say that this Chinese restaurant is one of them (although I don't utilize it enough.) A few days ago, a little past 9pm (on Christmas Eve to be exact), on my way to go to a friend's house, I stopped here to get me a few items. There was one group of people (the last diner of the night) that was finishing off their late night meal. Other than that, I appeared to be the last customer for the night. The lady that greeted me asked me if it was for a dine in or to-go (wonder if she would have accepted me had I said dine in? Not sure.) I immediately responded, "To-go, please."Like I stated earlier I only wanted a few items (a few sides.) I got me the pork dumplings and the veggies egg rolls. The lady said it'd be 5 min.While waiting, I looked around the dining room and took a few photos. Nicely dimmed lights, each dining table was neatly arranged/set. Very clean and inviting. I like the bright red napkins. This restaurant appears to have received several accolades in the past (there are frames magazine articles on one of the walls.) As promised, it was about 5 minutes before my food was ready. A different lady gave me a bag that contained my food with a nice smile. Service is good here.I didn't eat the food until next day. Sometimes there is a huge difference between eating it fresh or a day old so I'll be fair with this review based on the fact that I ate it when the food was half day old. Overall, both of them were good. To be frank, when it comes to dumplings or potstickers, I prefer them to be pan-fried to be deep fried. I wonder if they ever make them pan-fried or even steamed. This will be a little request I'll be sure to make upon my next visit for sure. The veggie egg rolls were a bit small for the price. Tasted good however. I really need to try their main dishes in the future. Then I'll be able to elaborate more on their food in a real sense. Until then my hon/frank rating shall be 3-stat."

One Barrel American Bistro & Wine Bar

★★★★☆ 4.2 (191)

"They're big on delicious food and an extensive list of nice affordable wines, cocktails and beers. Interested in maybe a flight of wines called Good Wine Hunting? It's a mix of red, white and a rosè. The family are movie buffs hence the reference to movies through out the wine list.I took a peek at their social calendar and every Wednesday they have a wine event .We had a great night of tasting some of their newer dishes.We started with :Tuna Carpaccio, Crispy Korean Bbq Riblets, Crispy Calamari, Scallops, Maryland Crab Cake and Jalapeño Artichoke Dip. ( these are available during HH daily too)Main Dishes:Pork Chop, Pan seared trout, Chicken Schitzel, Spring Risotto, Grilled Pork chop, New York Strip with twice-baked potatoes, House Made Tagliatelle ( fresh made daily).Desserts:Key Lime Pie, Pot De Creme .Looking for the best Happy Hour in Englewood?

Tony Rigatoni's Italian Kitchen

★★★☆☆ 3.1 (283)

"This place had a rooftop in an aesthetic valley. They did have some portable heaters for the chillier times, but frankly we got a bit shorted on that and I was shivering by the end. Their menu was surprisingly small but held some excellent options. Garlic bread was absurdly large but delivered on flavor, and a burrata salad offered and excellent mix of flavors and textures. Vegetarian options were some, but vegan not. Service was quite slow, which is part of the reason I ended up staying out in a night that I wasn't quite dressed for. The place struck me as an adequate one trading on location, and it definitely is an area worth visiting."

Uncorked Kitchen & Wine Bar

★★★★☆ 4.4 (130) • $$

"Taking a cooking class at Uncorked is a great way to to mix it up for date night. My husband and I love cooking together, but we don't get much of a chance to do it at home since one of us takes the lead on cooking while the other one is busy chasing around a toddler. We signed up for Along the Shores of the Mediterranean, which has a menu that would be easy to replicate at home. Best part was that the course was well timed. We had the opportunity to prepare almost every dish except the dessert on our own. There was even time to sit down and enjoy the meal while chatting with new people. And don't forget about those gorgeous mountain views! Our menu consisted of the following:+White Wine Steamed Mussels with Tomatoes, Olives and Basil+ Grilled Halloumi with Rosemary- Grape Walnut Relish and Baguette+ Cod with Pancetta, Artichokes, and Olives+ Lemon Olive Oil Cake with Whip CreamGiven that it's only a three-hour class, the learning part consisted of a very brief refresh on knife skills and cooking technique. It was a fun and memorable evening; we would love to return for another date night!"

Ristorante Di Sopra

★★★★☆ 4.2 (126) • $$$

"On a trip to Colorado Springs, we found this yummy eatery on Yelp. The restaurant is on the back corner of a several story building, so there are stairs to climb. The place is pretty small, and it was packed. The ambiance was not amazing, but they have very little real estate. We sat on the outside patio where the mountains can be seen. It got really hot out there though, so just be aware. They had nice wine, and waitstaff was friendly and attentive. I wish they would have brought olive oil/seasoning dip for the bread they brought. Instead, you get a small both of Mediterranean olives, etc.The food menu was fairly small. I would love a few more chicken options to choose from.The food was really good, and dessert was delicious! I would definitely go back! :)"

Trattoria Dionisia

★★★★☆ 3.7 (160) • $$

"So I've been wanting to try this place for quite some time, mostly due to another Yelp member's checkins. I always thought I would drive by it but it is tucked in a retail center. After finding parking I wandered into coziness. So cozy I thought the chef might come out of the kitchen! Con te Partirò was playing above my head. When it was time to order, I went with the meat lasagna and it came with a caesar salad, which was perfect. The bread was also hearty and fresh. The meat lasagna arrived to Strangers in the Night playing; however, I was not a stranger to lasagna and I will attest to this lasagna being one of the best I've eaten. For dessert, which I do not order often, I went with the tiramisu. It arrived to the song, "I did it my way!" To better describe dessert the song title needs to change to, "They did it my way!" It was a perfect ending. The service was perfect and not overbearing. My server was very polite and attentive. Dishes were cleared appropriately with the exception of one minor hiccup. The butter was cleared with a piece of bread left in the basket. Fortunately, like bocce ball there are no deductions for this. If find yourself in Parker stop by this restaurant and enjoy some great food. If you're a wine drinker it looks like they have some great selections for you!"

"Walked to the location with a friend. It was restaurant week and they had a specific menu that you could order from. Sadly, I couldn't have most of any was on the menu. I ended up with fries as you couldn't order specific items from the restaurant week menu and I was allergic or had restrictions from other items. It didn't take long for the food. The kitchen and bar are right in front of you. The fries were good. Nice atmosphere. Staff was friendly and efficient."

"Nicely surprised by this. My friends liked the margaritas and said they were strong and not a horrible mix.

Indulge Bistro and Wine Bar - Centennial

★★★★☆ 3.7 (114)

""Indulged" in their Happy Hour!Appetizers:- Poke Nachos ($18.00). A large bowl of Chips with nicely seasoned Poke Tuna and sauce. More than enough for two to share. HIGHLY RECOMMENDED!- Brussels Sprouts ($14.00). Crispy Brussels Sprouts with Parmesan shavings. I prefer a little more balsamic vinegar on the sprouts, but these were good. Entrees:- Fish & Chips ($22.00). Seriously, the fish filets were the size of a Hockey Puck! Huge! Perfect battering that doesn't overpower the fish and does not have oily flake underneath. So perfect, that we shared a filet for breakfast the next day! Recommended!- Chicken Gnocchi ($24.00). Our Server (Evan) recommended this dish. Three words: OH MY GAWD! The best Gnocchi we have ever eaten! I wanted to lick the plate! HIGHLY RECOMMENDED!Dessert/Aperitif:- Crème Brûlée ($12.00). A little pricey for "burnt pudding" , but the fruit compote is a nice add. Better than most and it's enough to share. - Mexican Coffee ($12.00). My Wife is from Mexico, so she knows her drinks. This drink was a nice compliment to end the meal!Service: I cannot speak more highly of Evan (our Server)! Professional, attentive, and spot-on with recommendations! He deserves recognition!Ambiance: Quiet, slightly upscale with indoor and outdoor seating--that overlooks the Southglenn fountain. A great place for intimate dinner or a get together with friends! Overall: Indulge is quite far from where we live (about 30 miles away), but every time we are in the area, we will return! Those living near Southglenn (Centennial area) are fortunate!"

"I went 3 for 7 on the tasting menu. Disappointed and she'll shocked on the price. Still hungry at the end. The Indian dish was too hot and the pork chop was waaaay too hot. Wow that was expensive by Colorado Springs standards. Yikes. ~$225 with tax and tip and only water. Great service."

"Blue Nest is an eclectic, retro little shop that's inviting. It has a neighborhood feel and it's a place to cozy up if that's the mood. Their coffee is amazing, and the cappuccino was 10/10. They have holiday flavors too, burritos and other light bites. An added bonus is the unique art for sale, created by the owner/artist. What a gem in the Lakewood area."
