While staying at the Gaylord Rockies resort for a conference I recently attended, I enjoyed…read moreterrific cocktails at the Embers Lodge Bar, the main bar near most of the restaurants. Like most hotel bars, the drinks and food can be expensive, but the bartenders are on point with the cocktails. Their smoked old-fashioned drinks were good, the Negronis were very crushable, as was its bourbon cousin, the Boulevardier. The shrimp appetizer that my wife ordered was also very good, and a nice starter before we had dinner at the English Pub. It's a good spot to experience sunsets as you knock back a drink or two, or watch the night sky, so long as it's not overcast or raining. If you look closely towards the ceiling-length windows, you can see the Denver skyline in the distance in front of the Rockies that dominate the landscape from afar.

On our first night at the Gaylord Rockies, we had dinner at the Fortunate Prospector where we were…read more"fortunate" to have cocktails and food because we are "fortunate" people. Our server was delightful as we reviewed the hard cover menus with the cool design that reminded me of "The Wind and the Willows". The pub interior certainly has the wooden aesthetic of a pub, without coming off as an authentic. But this is within the Gaylord Rockies so it does add variety to the options for restaurants and bars available. For my meal, I enjoyed the Whiskey Wings that were fried well and had a lovely sweet glaze with buttermilk ranch for dipping. The picked Fresno peppers were a nice touch as well. I washed it down with a couple of Bees Knees cocktails that brought me to a place of enormous well being. The Fortunate Prospector is a good option to enjoy food and drinks if you are staying at the Gaylord Rockies.

However, the food I've had at the bar, at the conference and now at this restaurant have been surprisingly good. I stand corrected on what I expected from the quality of the food. I'll start by saying the service is absolutely incredible. I came in here 35 minutes to closing and was never rushed for hurried along. My server, Haylie, was an absolute gem and was very engaging in conversation. The ambience is definitely Denver meets Lodge meets rustic meets current and is a little shtick but definitely warm and inviting. The pricing is a little bit higher than normal but this is a resort and as far as Resort pricing goes if it's completely normal. Haylie recommended the cottage pie and it did not disappoint. The mashed potatoes or soft and flavorful the slash beef underneath was tender and seasoned well. All in all is really good take on a traditional Shepherd's pie. I understand now why the place gets decent ratings. It seems like it's a really solid meal at decent pricing with impeccable service. Haylie thank you so much for guiding me in the right direction. Would easily come back here

Old Hickory Steakhouse is the Gaylord's flagship restaurant that can be found at multiple Gaylord…read moreproperties around the country. I dined here recently for a bougie meal with a few work colleagues. It's an upscale restaurant, an homage to the steakhouses of yesteryear, yet modern and refined. For a Monday night the place was popping! Being with other colleagues, I was comfortable having a few others make the decisions. We landed on oysters as an appetizer and these were great. Being landlocked we always get the eye roll when they say the oysters are fresh...to their credit, they brought us a nice selection of East Coast and West Coast oysters that I found to be quite tasty! One of the best parts of dining at Old Hickory is their bread and butter. Like woah, it shouldn't be this good! Soft rolls and decadent butter, it's tough to beat a tried and true combination like this. Sides are a la carte like most steakhouses, maybe one day they'll change this! We ordered a few for the table. These were lacking in my humble opinion, the potatoes and brussels were just okay. They do provide a nice sized portion, and a single side can feed 2-3 people. Back to the good, a colleague and I shared the 24 oz. Bone In Ribeye. Now we're talking!!! This was cooked to a lovely medium rare, and loaded with flavor. Ribeyes are obviously one of the superior cuts of meat for a reason, this was buttery, rich, and damn delicious. I was stuffed, but we tried two desserts. I only had a bite of each, and these were presented beautifully and both great. I have to give a shoutout to our server, who took great care of us, made wine recommendations, and seemed genuinely happy to be taking care of us. Prices are very high, but the service exceeds expectations. If you're looking to ball out, Old Hickory delivers!

We recently dined at Old Hickory Steakhouse and left with mixed feelings. The food itself was quite…read moregood in many ways. The lobster bisque was delicious, the Caesar salad with anchovies was excellent, and the steak was cooked perfectly. I also enjoyed the baked potato initially, although the inside became quite dry after the top layer. What disappointed me most was the overall atmosphere, especially considering the very high price point. For a steakhouse charging premium prices, I expected a more upscale and elegant dining experience. The lack of tablecloths and the overall ambiance made it feel less luxurious and refined than I anticipated. The service was wonderful! We had a server that knew the menu and made great recommendations. A great steakhouse experience is about more than just the food. It's also about the setting, presentation, and feeling of occasion. While the meal had several highlights, I wish the restaurant's atmosphere better matched the pricing and quality of the cuisine.

The tacos arrived quickly, were delicious. Especially the Apple Cilantro Steak. Note that the tacos are street taco sized. This means smallish at around 4-5" inches each.

My granddaughter had the Chicken Tenders with Fruit and I had a Cheeseburger and Fries. We ordered, paid and they give you a buzzer so you know when your food is ready. The food seemed to take awhile, but was fresh when it arrived. As others mention, the burgers are well done (but mine was moist) and I love the char broiled taste. The rolls are made fresh in-house and delicious. The fries are batter fried and were crisp (I would have like a bit less salt). My granddaughters fruit cup was fresh and amazing with honey dew, cantaloupe and pine apple. The portion of Chicken Tenders were generous. The breading was flavorful and crispy. Kid's meals are only $10 (no drink included). Brittany, our server, was super friendly and prepared cold drinks for us to sip while we waited. There are plenty of clean tables near the pool to sit and eat. All in all, a perfect little lunch and we didn't have to leave the pool.

We ended up going back twice, which pretty much says it all. Right off the bat, the person seating us was friendly and quick to acknowledge us, which we appreciated. That said, they could definitely use 1 to 2 more people up front. There's was only one person both days (at least at the beginning of the crowd) managing a lot of tables, so there was a bit of a delay getting seated because they were constantly running back and forth. We went both days right as the crowd was starting, and once seated, everything ran super smoothly. Service was fast, friendly, and efficient. I wish I could remember our first server's name. He was from CA and was fantastic. Really attentive, friendly and helpful. The food was fresh, the portions were generous, and everything was genuinely delicious. It's rare for us to go back to the same place twice on a trip, but this one earned it. Great sports bar atmosphere, plenty of seating, including outdoor seating, and it would work well for pretty much any sized group. I Highly recommend this spot if you're staying at the Gaylord Rockies or nearby.
