Stefanie C. "3 years later, it's time to write another review for Adrift! I can't believe it's been that long since I visited. My tiki bar obsessed friend was in town, so this was the obvious choice. That and I knew there were tiki mugs to add to her collection. We made reservations for 9pm on a Friday night. Customer service here is notably fantastic. We felt well taken care of.If you're looking for a tiki bar to mess you up, this is the spot. I splurged on a 'Lost in the Ayame Arashi' because it had gin, plum liqueur, creme de violet, and ube powder. My friend got the 'Captain's Share of the Spoils" which was a treat. We ended our night with 'Ta Kill Ya Pain'. Everything was delicious, and I love how they calibrate booziness on their menu.I previously criticized the food at Adrift but didn't get any this time, so I wasn't able to compare. We ate dinner beforehand, which I would HIGHLY recommend doing if you're not getting dinner at the bar. Clearly their specialty is tiki drinks, so maybe stick with that. Also, take an Uber here. Either way, I'm excited to bring more friends in the future!"

Adam D. "I've walked by this place numerous times, but could not partake for one reason or another, until my recent birthday. After Ocean Prime dinner we had some time to kill before a comedy show at Comedy Works, so we finally made the stop. I love this place, the drinks are handcrafted and delicious. The interior decor is sophisticated, but not pompous. The bartender was super sweet and made crafted and stiff drinks for us. She was all about taking care of the patrons, even though she was the only one there and everyone decided to arrive at the same time. I didn't mind the wait, as I watched her bustling the bar; it was quite entertaining to me. I would definitely recommend it, a great bar with one of the best decors in town. Its location with proximity to Larimer Square restaurants and Comedy Works, is perfect to visit before or after. Good luck figuring out the entry to the restrooms :)"

Pamela M. "I have become a little bit of a neighborhood regular at Revival. I love this spot. Their happy hour being on Saturdays also is one of the big reasons why. Inside it's a nice vibe, lots of wood, kind of that new/old/retro combination. Everything is finished nicely/classy. There's ample seating and check out the different specials they have on different days of the week. They also have a couple pool tables next door that people don't always realize. The bathrooms could be better, but, ah no real biggie.I've tried different foods, as well. All have been delicious. I think I got one sandy baked oyster once, which always sucks to chew sand in your teeth, but I guess it's going to happen here and there with oysters. The food is good.They also have quite the selection of whiskys & bourbons. My friend was shocked to see Pappy Van Winkle there. I was lucky enough to share his! Lol"

Kismet, to have been able to come during their grand opening without even knowing due to some local friends. Out of LA and into Denver, we're winning with traditional cocktails but of course the ability to make drinks based on their library. I wish this spot was in my 'hood because I would be here a lot. Instead, it'll be a staple when on Broadway. Highly recommend if you're looking for a spot that serves up solid cocktails in a casual bar.

There's a bartender there I really like but service overall has always been very good. This is another spot I learned about from a Yelp event. These events pay off with repeat business!! :)Fun fact, this was the last place I was out at in 2019 for brunch before the world shut down.

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."

They have an extensive specialty cocktail and matching mocktail menu which is super cool. True to tiki form, they are on the sweeter side, but I was pleasantly surprised that the cocktails weren't sickly sweet. My first drink came with a long hair sticking out of the top so I removed it and didn't complain since the bartenders hair looked freshly washed. We came around 9pm Sunday and there was plenty of free parking right in front. The menu says 20% gratuity included but they add the 20% on top of the menu price so that is misworded and misleading."

Pancho & Jane is relatively new, open only a few months, but I believe they have that special quality ingredient that will make them successful. I was impressed with the drink menu, although since it was mid day I did not partake. I will definitely go back some evening when I can have a few of their margaritas or mescal cocktails. The bar is large and cool. Reminds me of a resort in Mexico somewhere. Parking on the street can be tricky. I will be back soon."

They have some of the most original cocktail creations around and the bartenders also fix up the standards with pizzazz and skill. Cozy, intimate, sometimes dark, and often full.

Luckily, we got in around 8.20 pm on Friday evening which is a bit late for dinner but we got a table instantly. I got the papayita drink which was alright and my husband got the Paloma which was good. Our friend was visiting from India and had never tried mezcal, he tried the mahahali drink and that was really good! For apps we got the elote corn and guacamole - both were freshly made. I personally loved the elote corn. For mains we got the tacos - I loved the pork belly tacos, it was almost like the al pastor but better. Our friend is a vegetarian and got the Rajas which he loved. We also got the veggie enchiladas and the pollo main dish - they were both so well made. Overall, I liked the food here! I am glad we stopped by for dinner here."

Years later, it's grown into one of my favorite chain restaurants because the food, service and cocktails are consistently top notch!Our last visit solidified it being a go-to when in this part of town. 9+Co has plenty of options, albeit many chain-type places. Blanco (and their other concept, Culinary Dropout) have always separated themselves from the rest.*Don't miss the weekday happy hour (3-6pm) and all day on Tuesdays*WARM QUESO ($13) -- Guacamole, Sour Cream, Pico de Gallo. We added Ground Beef ($3) and this elevated the already good queso into G R E A T queso. Chips were salted and perfectly crispy. The queso had the texture we all crave and love, and with the surrounding accoutrements we were devouring it faster than a race car at the Indy 500.TIGER SHRIMP FAJITAS ($23) -- Spicy Garlic Butter, Served with Caramelized Peppers & Onions, Elote, Guacamole, Pico De Gallo & Queso Blanco. Choice of Black or Charro Beans. I can't tell you the last time I ordered fajitas, but I'm really glad I ordered these. The amount of food alone was worth the price of admission. The shrimp were plump and juicy and had a great snap. The tortillas are made in house and you can absolutely taste the difference.Not to mention, my Cadillac Margarita, and even the salsa that came with the chips to begin the meal, were excellent. I literally have zero negatives at Blanco. Service is always spot on, and the vibes (whether indoors or on the patio) are always lively and fun.Impressed with this place since day one. No signs of slowing down. Check 'em out if you want a delicious meal in a trendy setting!"

They had a great brunch deal then it changed with new ownership but then it got better again, so I'm just trying to keep up with it!The happy hour for some reason only includes the fried pierogies but off the regular menu you can get the steamed with this ever-so-yummy onion butter over the top of them. It sounds so simple but it's so good! Both styles are good, actually. Also tried the happy hour flatbread recently, it was just ok probably won't order it again. I'll have to go back for brunch again soon since they changed the prices up a little bit again. FYI, this is also the former Kingas restaurant, now called The Mansion since the owner sold it."

"If you're searching for an outdoor patio in downtown Denver where you can indulge in modern cocktails and tantalizing tapas from the grill, look no further than The Terrace at Room for Milly. With its delightful ambiance and menu, this gem is sure to please. The Terrace menu is available Fridays & Saturdays from 2pm - 7pm for guests dining on the patio.We arrived at Room for Milly and were seated outside on The Terrace. The Terrace was framed by verdant plants, flowers, and charming green umbrellas. Our server Alec was awesome; he was attentive and had great recommendations on both food & cocktails. From The Terrace's grill we had the Kebab Plate made with Caribbean Shrimp, Lamb Kofta, & Guajillo Jackfruit served atop Quinoa Salad made with Compressed Cucumber, Pickled Red Pepper, and Toasted Almonds. Each skewer was grilled to perfection offering a delightful combination of flavors and textures that satisfied our taste buds. My favorite were the juicy Caribbean Shrimp.Due to some rain, we enjoyed some time inside Room for Milly as well. The interior was wistful and evocative. Feminine art pieces, a soft pastel color palette, and an art deco-inspired bar created an atmosphere that was both inviting & sophisticated.For Cocktails I started with The SS City of Paris made with Vodka, Grapefruit, Rosewater, and Sparkling Rosé. Youthfully adventurous, bright, & clear-eyed with a hint of mischief - this cocktail was floral on the nose with a refreshingly crisp taste.Jaclyn had the Delta Royale made with Blanco Tequila, Blanc Vermouth, Lime, Giffard Fraise de Bois, Chareau, & Lavender. Determined and full-throated with a scarf snapping taut - this cocktail was strawberry pink & inspired.Ally had the Mont Paral Cava. A delicate pale rosé with fine persistent bubbles.For Bites we had the Whipped Feta & Crudité made with Tomato Confit, Olive Tapenade, & Seasonal Vegetables. This dish showcased thick whipped feta complemented by a medley of vegetables. The vibrant colors and fresh flavors of this dish were perfect for sharing and savoring alongside our cocktails."

I hadn't heard much about this spot, but if the Yelp reviews can tell you anything, it's that it is worth 5 WHOLE stars - and who am I to argue with my fellow Yelpers??First, their cocktails are TOP TIER. I tried a couple: Yuzu Enjoy Myself with Japanese whisky, yuzu puree and egg white and the Blood Orange Crush with mezcal, fireberry tea, spiced blood orange - inventive and all DELICIOUS. Second, the food! Their menu is simple - some great, fresh seafood, steak, pasta. There was not one bite I did not enjoy:Tallow Candle Bread Service - a candle made out of rendered beef fat and seasoned with herbs and fleur de sel is brought to the table with fantastic, housemade bread. This is a zero waste product and everything is edible except for the flame! Delicious and unique. Wagyu Steak Carpaccio - this is some of the best carpaccio I've had in town. Chili crunch, pine nuts, harrisa aioli, thai basil, ramp kimchi, picled ramps, olive oil - it may SOUND like there's too many things on top of the shaved wagyu, but trust me IT WORKS.12oz Wagyu Flatiron - cooked perfectly medium rare served with potato mille fuielle, charred onions, kombu-beef jus, chanterelles and spinach. Don't sleep on those sides, they were also just as good as that steak.I cannot say enough great things about this restaurant- not to mention the service was just incredible. Everyone was approachable and knowledgeable and so warm and inviting. I am DREAMING of a brunch here one day - I think they had it at one point, but don't anymore. I just KNOW that menu will be ridiculous. Either way, can't wait to get back in here!"

I am not going to lie, I set my expectations on the lower side because I've had quite a bit of bad seafood in Colorado but I was blown away with everything we ordered. From the exterior and interior, Fish N Beer is unassuming. It gives a very relaxed, neighborhood eatery type of vibe. The food on the other hand is phenomenal. We ordered the salmon and octopus and everything from how they were cooked to the sides (the potatoes with the octopus were SO good) to the sauce were amazing. There was not a single thing I thought was lacking with the dishes. To top it all off, I'm not a big dessert person, but the key lime pie was perfectly sweet and was delicious. Our server was also on top of everything and we never had to wait for a single thing. I can't wait to go back!"

The ambiance is fitting for a neighborhood, locals-only watering hole.I want to like this place more than I do. I've been here a few times since the kitchen is open fairly late (by Denver standards) and it's a nice place to chill and watch a game. But $6 Coors Banquets and $8 canned beers? This isn't a high end cocktail bar, this is more of a dive. Too steep for the quality of what you're getting.In terms of food, y'all should know by now I'm a wing lover. I even have a chicken wing tattooed on me. KIDDING, but maybe I should...$15 for an order of wings is pretty standard with inflation, so that I don't necessarily care about. But these wings are tiny with a lowercase t. There's not much meat on them, and the flavors leave you wanting more. They do load up on the carrots and celery...but that shouldn't be the most exciting part about a chicken wing adventure.Maybe their wings aren't all that and I should expand my horizons to other menu items. They do have great pictures on their website, but I've never personally seen food that resembles it in person.Like I said, a super cozy neighborhood spot. I've just been let down with the food options a few times. Honestly it won't completely deter me from coming back, I just feel like I'm getting the short end of the stick here!"

Mike N. "Lyons, CO. We were happy to find a new dining establishment in Lyons that serves fine cuisine instead of the usual festival tourist food. We had a reservation but at 4:30 we didn't need one. We chose to sit inside because it was just too hot to do the al fresco thing. The inside ambiance was sparse and sort of industrial but it did not matter in the least, we were there for the food. Our lovely server guided us on what to order on the Happy Hour menu because those items are half off the regular price. When it got to be around 5:30 we started ordering additional items off the regular menu. The whole experience was awesome, the food came out in an orderly fashion so we never had a table full of plates nor did we have long lapses between courses. We started out with virgin Mojitos, we don't do well with alcohol in high elevations with extra dry climate. The mojitos were expertly crafted and a quality thirst quencher. Here is what we sampled: Yuca Fritas- (note: NOT Yucca) with aji verde, very tasty, sort of fried or baked with zero grease. Colombian Sliders- with mango, crispy plantains, and Serrano ham. Pretty damn amazing. We ordered a second one right away. Honestly I could have just ordered four or five of these and been happy. Ensalada César- what makes this Caesar so special and unique is the almond dressing and the manchego. Do not skip this dish. Ensalada Wild- pretty but boring compared to everything else. Pinchos- Small chicken skewers with membrillo bbq and salsa blanco. I loved these. Exciting flavors for a chicken breast dish. Ahi Tuna- Wow ! in taste and appearance, just plain wonderful. So we tried all the proteins except the octopus, maybe next time? Desserts: Chocolate Sipper- two shots of chocolate espresso sabayon with the distinct additive of Brazilian Rum (Cachaca?). Rather decadent, the dish included a biscotti that was typical. I enjoyed the flavors and the experience much more by simply sipping, like the epithet clearly states. Key Lime Crema- The over all highlight of the evening. Just a knockout dessert which was basically a key lime crème brûlée with a meringue topping. If you must have any of the desserts start with this one."

Essentially, if you normally tip like I do at 20%, you've essentially tipped 26.95%. My other issue with it is that it's "Above the Line," so as a subset of the surcharge, we get an extra tax on top of a Service Charge.Not cool. Just raise your prices."

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"

I just love that side cause it's like a calmer vibe which is my vibe. The other side just is to much cause of course it's brighter and more seating. Both are great though! This is just a me preference and plus I love love the decor on the meatball side. We were immediately sat and we sat at a booth close to the bar. I of course ordered me a tequila me smalls and it was delicious just for some reason didn't tasty 100% the same as when I went for the event which is fine it's still good it just was less sweet and more on the tangy side. To eat I ordered the shishito peppers and the lime shrimp all off the appetizer menu. My absolute favorite is the shisito peppers that they pair perfectly with the marmalade sauce it comes with. The peppers are always cooked and seasoning so perfectly and the perfect amount of spicyness as well. I could eat this all day everyday! The shrimp were of course delish but hands down I really only came for the shisito peppers lol.

AMAZING NEIGHBORHOOD RESTAURANT!We spent a night in Denver before our morning flight back home, and we're glad we finished our recent Colorado trip on a high note!We arrived at around 5:30pm, and the place was quite packed already - no surprise as it was New Year's Eve! Glad we made a reservation, and we were seated right away.Service was amazing! Our server was very attentive, friendly, and considerate. We were going to order some appetizers first as we needed more time to decide on main courses. He politely asked us to place food order all at once since the kitchen was busier than usual due to holiday season. We appreciated his full transparency, and his tone and the way he handled the situation was perfect - he took good care of their kitchen crew without offending the customers!Their cocktail was probably the best I've had during the whole trip. I had the "Birdwatcher" (bourbon based), a refreshing cocktail that's well balanced between citrusy and bitterness.I'll highlight a few dishes we had from that night:- Persimmon Carpaccio + Truffle: this is an item from the "kitchen fun" section of their menu, and honestly we didn't even know what to expect. It turned out to be a very pleasant surprise! Persimmon's sweetness and truffle's earthiness complimented each other nicely, and the nuts on top added more texture to it!- Beet & Chicory Salad: just imagine having a bite mixed with sweetness from beets, citrusy from grapefruit, richness from goat ricotta cheese, and chewiness from pistachio. This is so satisfying! - Truffled Mushroom Tagliatelle: what a great change from the lighter carpaccio / salad dishes to a "full-body" pasta dish. Without surprise, the truffle butter further enhanced the nutty and earthy flavor of the porcini mushroom, and the pasta was cooked to perfection.We thoroughly enjoyed our experience at Point Easy, and will definitely visit again when we're in the area next time!"
