"Stopped by for a drink and snack before the Rockies game. I was a little hesitant about the price ($12 for 3 tenders??) but oh my goodness it was worth it. Those chickens tenders were GOOD. Our bartender was also great and it was a well put together vibe.There's also a bunch of games to play here! I would definitely take my friends back :) Great addition to the neighborhood."

Park Burger - Pearl

★★★★☆ 4.1 (954) • $$

"My boyfriend was craving a burger and we were in the area so we decided to give this spot a go. I got the mini park burger and substituted raw onions for shoestring (pro hack they don't charge extra this way). The truffle parm fries were perfectly cooked and crispy. My milkshake was delicious they make the strawberry sauce in house and the whipped cream was so fluffy. I'm not a big burger fan by any means (I actually tend to avoid burgers) but THIS burger has me questioning everything. Delicious bun, juicy patty and perfectly crisp onions. The inside of this place is super cute and come spring the patio area looks lovely. Bravo."

Glo Noodle House

★★★★★ 4.6 (151)

"GNH might be the BTS of the Denver Ramen scene... their dishes "light it up like dynamite!" If you're unfamiliar, BTS is a famous K-Pop boy band that sings the 2020 hit song, "Dynamite". Check your spotify or reference your last wedding, you know the song. :DSo what was so "Dynamite!", let's break it down...Upon walking in, I felt a "I-I-I'm in the stars tonight, so watch me bring the fire and set the night alight". They have really vividly colorful murals and lantern lighting from above that gives a "shining through the city with a little funk and soul". If you're thinking about this spot for a date or gathering, I think you can definitely "bring a friend, join the crowd". Anyone would enjoy the very music video-isc vibe. The service was "cha-ching like money" just on it! We were greeted with cool kindness, solid explanations to our questions about the menu and swift refills of our water glasses. We got the Deathwish and Miso Bacon... both were "Dy-na-na-na, na-na, na-na-na, na-na-na" and lit our taste buds up "like dynamite!" The broth in both was salty, savory and all kinds of "whoa oh oh"!If you like spicy, Deathwish is for you. If you don't, Miso Bacon. My favorite was the Deathwish. I'd say it was the "I'm diamond, you know I glow up" of the Miso Bacon, because the bowls have the same ingredients excluding their chili sauce (which I found to be a well-balance of spice, tang and delicately sweet). So, if you're in the area, I'd dance your way into Glo Noodle House! You'll be sure to have a "Dy-na-na-na, na-na, na-na, ayy" DYNAMITE experience. :D"

BEEF AGUACHILE wagyu beef carpaccioSAZON CHICKEN CHEF'S STEAK CHURROSPATATAS confit potatoHOUSE BREADMy favorite was the churros. Second favorite was the rice that came in the chicken dish. Third favorite the beef aguachile. House bread yummy. I'd skip the potatoes, steak, & chicken, both fresh and delicious, but a bit plain. I will try some other dishes next time.Very lovely ambiance, I enjoyed all the decorations around the restaurant & colors.Everyone was so friendly and accommodating. Looking forward to coming back!"

"We ate and had drinks here. The food was way more than you would think for bar food so totally worth it. Dom and jimmy were our servers and bartenders. By far the best service I ever had ever. It was a very nj vibe which I loved. Always had my water refilled without even asking. I was there when it wasn't so busy but it is a hidden gold mine. I will be going here every time I am in Denver mainly because of jimmy our bartender. Even gave us a special ice cube that was carved specially for us. Absolutely incredible."

Community Supper Club

★★★★☆ 4.4 (465) • $$$

"(STILL MIND BLOWING ~ lunch review!) Community Supper Club has been the best restaurant in Lafayette, CO for dinner for years now. Until recently, they weren't open for lunch however something magical happened this Spring and BAM! They are now open for delicious business starting at 11:30am. This officially makes them the best lunch spot in town. :DWhy?Well... because it's the exact same menu, staff, vibe and service as dinner! Everything stays 5 STAR+. In fact, it just gives you the opportunity to try something off the menu that maybe feels more lunchtime than dinner. As stated in previous reviews, I've eaten here a handful of times. Yet, I've never had anything from the handheld / sandwich section of the menu. It was a new day today, though! That's right. My husband and I tried the Crispy Sweet Sesame Chicken Sandwich w/ a side salad and the Pastrami Sandwich w/ tots. They were both 5 STARS but the Crispy Sweet Sesame Chicken Sandwich was CLUCKING FANTASTIC!! Shout out to our waitress, Brady, who really suggested this to us. Thank goodness we listened, because it may have been one (if not the best) chicken sandwich we'd ever had!! What made it so special? I think it was their use of chicken thigh instead of breast. It made the sandwich so juicy!! Highly recommend. (insert emoji smiley face w/ heart eyes)*BONUS*The back patio is open! It's cute. It's quaint. It's the perfect midday date!"

Tap On The Rocks

★★★☆☆ 3.3 (113) • $$

"After a fun hike at Red Rocks Park we decided to stop in the small, quaint town of Morrison, Colorado, which boast a population of 400. There are many restaurants on the main street, catering to thirsty and hungry hikers. We came upon Tap On The Rocks restaurant which offered nice outside seating. We were greeted promptly and told to select any table on their deck, which is covered by a lattice roof. It's a nice, shaded deck. Water was quickly served, and after about 5 minutes our waitress came by the table and we ordered: * Cobb Salad $17.00: Grilled chicken, bacon, cucumber, tomato, olives, onion, egg, cheddar and mozzarella cheese, fresh mixed greens * House Salad $9.00 Spring Mix, Grape Tomatoes, Cucumbers, Fresh Mozarella * (2) Patty Melt $16.00 Pork & Beef Patty, Caramelized Onions, Swiss Cheese on Rye.I hate giving out 1-star reviews but Tap On The Rocks surely earned it. All four of us thought this was the worst lunch we've had in years (likely in the top 5 most terrible meals I've ever had). The Patty Melt was dry, seriously overcooked, had almost no cheese and the onions were raw red onions. Two of these melts were ordered, and they were both terrible, much of the sandwich left on their respective plates. My Cobb Salad was 95% lettuce, had a few tiny pieces of cucumber, a few strands of cheese, and two tiny bits of bacon. The chicken was some type of pressed, processed chicken, it tasted odd, was it chicken? I'm not sure if they ran out of ingredients, had an incompetent chef, or some combination of both. If you happen to be driving through Morrison, don't walk by Tap On The Rocks, Run!!"

Blue Sparrow Coffee

★★★★★ 4.7 (203) • $

"The good:This is a cute little coffee shop in a trendy little area in Denver. Denver has plenty of great artisanal coffee spots and Blue Sparrow shouldn't be spared. Their lattes are perfectly made and their latte art is on point. The interior has around 5-6 tables for two people. There are some high chairs for people watching. There's outdoor seating as well and some shopping spots outside so it's nice to grab coffee and walk around here. They sell classic pastries as well like croissants and cookies. The service was prompt. The prices are fair and the menu is simple and straight forward. The bad:It's a really small shop so it's more for grabbing a drink then going or sitting a little bit rather than studying all day. The interesting:They have a 2nd location in Denver as well. They sell merchandise like sweaters and candles."

Finley's Pub

★★★★☆ 4.3 (244) • $$

"Hole in the wall? I guess but definitely with a class and some history behind it. Is it a dive bar? I guess it could be but at the time of visit during mid Saturday, it was very quite and the bartender was also working as server. Being a pub, lots of pub menus and cold draft beer and so much more. Price was right, drink was cold and fries were hot. What more can you ask for?"

Walter's303 Pizzeria & Publik House Uptown

★★★★☆ 4.1 (431) • $$

"We've eaten here a couple of Times and both times it was excellent. It's in our neighborhood and it's yummy!Pizza is delicious. We had a ham, olive and mushrooms in a regular crust. 15 minutes to perfection The blucifer is messy and tasty as a wrap. The half salad is a fair amount of food and a better option than chips. Service is nice but can be a bit slow. At 6:30pm on Wednesday the place was packed and all the outdoor seating was filled. Turned over twice while we were there. A great neighborhood spot for pizza. Sammies and some select noodles dishes. Full drink menu!"

Slater's 50/50

★★★★☆ 3.8 (339) • $$

"Always a great place to hang out before heading directly into downtown. There is always room at Slater's but diners can still make reservations. Thanks to the staff for accommodating our requests to watch multiple NFL games (gotta check Fantasy Football natch!) I am a big fan of their burgers, especially the 50/50. It's cooked with a slight pink, and is uber juicy and tasty. No where else compares! Leave room for one of their fantastic milkshakes. Then plan to run a marathon to work it off."

Colorado Campfire

★★★★☆ 3.7 (265) • $$

"We came here unexpectedly lather live in the neighborhood. Usually it's packed to the gills and appears noisy from the street. We came on a Monday night at 7pm and had our pick of in and out. Lots of bar space and patio if we had brought the dog. Service was fast and efficient. Friendly staff from start to finish. Food...lamb and mint burger, cooked medium, with a side salad and fries. Not bad but not quite the taste combo we expected. The fries had a mild Smokey taste which was very nice. Chicken teriyaki sandwich with tots. This was tasty but a tad too savory. The chicken was so damn big there was no way I was getting the sandwich in my mouth so I hacked it up with a knife which seemed more appropriate. Getting bits of chicken, slaw, bread and pickles would be the perfect taste but hard to accomplish as a mega sandwich. See pics! The tots were spiced up and also very savory and a hint of smoke too. Very unique. We didn't drink but the water was cold and plentiful! I would def return and try the burger and nachos as those looked very tasty on nearby tables. I counted 70 beers on tap, a well stocked selection of whiskey if beer isn't your thing. Lots of seating options and it seems likely that you could bring a good sized group here and find a place to sit. The booths accommodate 6 reasonably sized humans."

Maine Shack

★★★★☆ 4.1 (444) • $$

"Maine Shack is legit. Wonderfully light buttery rolls- filled with tender juicy Lobstah! I honestly haven't had a proper lobster roll this yummy since I moved away from Connecticut in my early twenties, (I'm 54). We ordered the medium sized brown butter and fancy lobster rolls, the roll size is the same, but medium has 4 oz of lobster, both of which were amazing. The fancy is lighter and lemony with light mayo, the brown butter, is rich and delectable. I might have groaned out loud. It is pricey, but the quality is excellent and we had plenty of lobster in our medium sized 4oz portion. Hours later and I'm still thinking about those lobster rolls. Yummy homemade potato chips too. Mmm!"

Waldo's Chicken & Beer

★★★★☆ 4.3 (44) • $$

"So we've been meaning to try this place since it is newer near us. I got a 2 piece white chicken meal that comes with a cheddar biscuit and 2 sides. I got Mac and cheese and the cucumber / tomato salad. My fiancé went to order it to-go. The skin on the chicken was super crispy and my wing was still connected to the breast which was different but I liked it. The cheddar biscuit was delicious. We had actually gotten a side of them and it came with honey butter. I could've ate the whole thing just as my dinner. The Mac and cheese was very good. And the cucumber salad was refreshing. I really enjoyed this! I'm happy to find a go-to fried chicken place that isn't fast food. I love Popeyes and this Mac and cheese is like theirs but way less greasy! My fiancé got a chicken sandwich with bacon and really enjoyed it. Now, if they can just make the fried chicken with spicy flavoring in the breading - then I'd be here every week!"

Campfire

★★★★☆ 3.6 (80)

"Lovely outdoor seating with a decent variety in menu. There was only one waitress while the rest of the staff was in a meeting in the corner. I felt bad for her because some people were impatient, however she was extremely kind and did her job well. The food was nearly perfect. Great flavors and cooked just right. The Brussel sprouts were covered in thick balsamic vinegar and crisp bacon. The potato chips were delectably crunchy. The chicken was moist yet crunchy, however could have used a little bit better batter and more spice. My friends enjoyed the pastrami and egg salad potato salad. Everyone said that the margaritas were delicious but I was plenty satisfied with my IPA draft. Would definitely go again."

Junction Food and Drink

★★★★☆ 4.1 (105) • $$

"Junction is getting there!! I discovered this super cool food hall because I wanted coffee at Sonder and thought there would be a place to hang out for a few hours to get work done... SURPRISE!! It's not a café. Lots of great eateries (and a bar) to enjoy every hour of the day. Still not crazy busy like Avanti, Edgewater, or Milk Market, so take advantage while you can.Love the visibility of AV, subconsciously promoting private event space options to planner nerds like me. My main issue with Junction is that it's unclear where to bus dishes and glasses after meals. Other than that, I love the variety of cuisines represented. Solid selection of caffeine and booze. Wide availability of trash receptacles and restrooms. I've been here twice already, and it's a go-to suggestion for hangouts when I'm in the area.P.S. Cocktails at the bar are fantastic! There's also beer and wine. With only one person working, it can take awhile just for a single drink... worth it if you're not rushed. I had a Skinny Paloma, which was expertly crafted. Probably why cocktails take forever."

Federales - Denver

★★★★☆ 3.8 (201) • $$

"Two year later, the Hatch Chile Nachos at Federales are still fantastic! Came here with my friend after a happy hour event, and I love how late they're open. I already had my fill of margaritas but couldn't resist a heaping pile of dressed-up nachos. Every chip had plenty of toppings. It was all delicious. Service at the bar was fine. Definitely gets a little rowdy but would keep coming back again whenever I'm partying out in RiNo."

Marco's Coal Fired-Ballpark

★★★★☆ 4.3 (1431) • $$

"During my recent visit, I savored the most exceptional pizza I've had in a long time, freshly baked in a wood-fire stove. I was impressed to learn that the restaurant has earned a "Michelin Star" and is the only Colorado establishment certified by the Associazione Verace Pizza Napoletana. My margherita pizza was crafted with authentic Italian ingredients, including real buffalo mozzarella, imported tomatoes, flour, and fresh basil, resulting in a truly outstanding flavor experience. While some may prefer a thicker crust, the restaurant also offers a New York-style option. However, please note that the Neapolitan pizzas maintain traditional ingredient standards. Conveniently located near the ballpark, this intimate restaurant features a downstairs area ideal for groups. In my pursuit of the perfect espresso martini, I found theirs to be commendable. I also tried their limoncello, it didn't suit my taste due to personal preference.Overall, I strongly recommend a visit if you're in the area and craving pizza."

DJ'S Watering Hole

★★★★☆ 4.2 (49)

"Great atmosphere, very open with plenty of seating and a bar in the center. Lots of wood makes the place feel casual and inviting. The menu offers an interesting mix of Indian specialties and bbq plates. There are also options for vegetarians, always a good thing in the area. Nice selection of beers, cocktails and a few wines. I can't wait to go back in the spring when the weather is nice enough to enjoy their patio."

"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."

Machete Tequila + Tacos

★★★★☆ 3.9 (727) • $$

"Got into Denver on the A-train from the airport and was starving! Saw Mechete right across the street from Union Station. This is a must eat at place! The menu is large and incredible. They also have many options for those with cerrtain dietary needs (gluten free, vegan). If you like margarita's they have the best hands down! I go the cadicallac which has a topper of grand marnier. YUM. We started out with the Guacamole appetizer. This is not your little appetizer! Not only did it come with guacamole (super good) it comes with a taster of different salsas! Must start! I picked the 3 vegan tacos (one needs to be w/out cheese) and they were packed with veggies and it is so filling! MENU NOTE: my partner got the Calma Borracho. This is really a shareable and not a single meal! It is huge! and a ton of food! Eat local. Go to Machete's and grab a marg and taco's!"

Music City Hot Chicken

★★★★☆ 4.3 (41)

"Woah, I haven't reviewed Music City Hot Chicken? Shame on me.This easily has to be some of the best hot chicken in the city. Why? It's actually hot! I'm getting sick and tired of every restaurant in town putting a hot chicken sandwich on the menu and it possessing barely any heat. Hot chicken is hot chicken. Let's keep it that way!Best of all, Music City Hot Chicken is located inside one of my favorite places, TRVE Brewing. Hot chicken, beer and metal? Sign me up. AND CARVE SLAYER INTO YOUR FOREARMS WHILE YOU'RE AT IT.Service is quick. You order at the counter and in 10 minutes you pick up your food and enjoy. Music City's forte are their hot chicken tenders. If you can't handle the heat they have lower levels of spiciness. Also I'm pretty sure they make their own sauces, and it makes all the difference in the world.Don't sleep on this humble slice of hot chicken heaven."

Miners Saloon

★★★★☆ 4.2 (349) • $$

"The hubs and I caught up with friends on a weekend day. The service was friendly and fast. The food seems to be pre-prepared which is totally fine, just limited in any modifications (more an fyi than an issue). I got the veggie wrap and picked out the onions, no biggie. It was a delicious veggie wrap and went well with the sour lemon beer on tap I sampled. Everyone else got a turkey sammie and we're happy with their selection. The space feels quintessential Colorado and had a nice view of the mountains. I'd absolutely come back again."

ZEPS EPIQ Sandwiches

★★★★☆ 4.3 (472) • $$

"Killer sandwich place! Stopped in today for the first time and ordered the Aspen melt with tots (truffle seasoning). My husband got the Pueblo cheesesteak with tots (bacon jalepeno cheddar seasoning). Both were to die for. Came out quick, decently priced, and huge portions. The tots were crispy and both of the seasonings were fantastic. Highly recommend grabbing one of the chocolate chip cookies. We made the mistake of skipping it and I regret it now lol."

I'd love to dine in because I'm sure it's even better."
