The food was OK. I LOVED my steak, but the veggies were undercooked & the bread we got was a little cold. The service was GREAT and I loved the atmosphere, but the food just could have been better. read more

Food was good and reasonably priced service was amazing! (especially after coming from overpriced & miserable in Steamboat) The Greek Salad was excellent, pasta Bolognese was gobbled up, hamburger juicy (fries delicious) pizza perfect and cheesecake was devoured. But honestly, the best part of our meal was our waiter Todd. He was cheerful and attentive. Our several special request were met with a willing and prompt response. I will recommend Deno's to anyone going to WP! read more

A family favorite; welcoming atmosphere. Dinner / lunch or just a drink by the bar, a must while in Winter Park.

Phoenix was super helpful with all of my allergies and I appreciate the kitchen also being accommodating. She had multiple tables get seated at once and she was still attentive with her check ins and follow-ups from the kitchen on my allergies. Food came out in great timing even though they were very busy. Will definitely go back! Thanks Phoenix for killing it! read more

Good service good food. it is not too noisy and you can get a lot of things from here.

This place was the best dinner of our ski trip! We had the best service with our party or 10, the waiter kept on top of all our drink orders and split checks without a problem. The mountain mule was so good and the chicken piccata was to die far. The bread and steak tips were an amazing starter. read more

Deno's Mountain Bistro - two plates of food - Steakhouses Near Me - Winter Park, Colorado

I was extremely disappointed by the food and service of Dinos. I called weeks before to extend our 8 person reservation to 9, and was told they would not be able to accommodate. When we walked into our 730 Saturday dinner it was EMPTY. Our server didn't write our orders down even after i made a comment "we were putting in a lot of apps and different drinks". She forget a cocktail and kept the wrong dressing on our salad and later forgot to put in an ENTIRE ENTRY. So someone from our party just shared with their spouse as they didn't want to wait. Steaks were cooked incorrectly and some food was cold/lukewarm. It's a more "expensive" restaurant, which we're happy to pay when FOOD AND SERVICE match the price. Stick to eating at the hotels and resorts in my opinion. Also getting an Uber takes like 30 mins and we were rudely asked to wait outside at the end of dinner. 0 STAR EXPERIENCE read more

Deno's Mountain Bistro - Totally empty yet we couldn't add an additional person to our res???? - Steakhouses Near Me - Winter Park, Colorado

Spent a lovely evening here at Deno's. Ample seating inside and lovely tables outside which we enjoyed on a mild September evening. Our waiter was quite knowledgeable with his wines and helped us select a very good red. We indulged in an incredible gorgonzola fondue then enjoyed the perfectly cooked ribeye and filet. Hated to leave! Highly recommend Deno's read more

Deno's Mountain Bistro - Gorgonzola Fondue and a good bottle of red! - Steakhouses Near Me - Winter Park, Colorado

The Fondu is not fondu as well as it's just a tiny dish barely enough to eat. The chicken marsala was not marsala sauce, but just a salted brown sauce. The pasta bolognaise was chunks of meat unable to cut with the standard knife. The waiter was tentative, but an idiot. There are other places in town that serve great food.... read more

I have now had two incredible experiences at Deno's. The first was with a large group (17 of us). It's always nice when a place like this can accommodate a big party. This time it was just my husband and I. We picked this place to celebrate our anniversary and it was perfect. You can sit up front by the bar or in the back where it is more quiet and dark. We got our drinks quickly and the server brought out bread. I ordered the daily special which was the Salmon. It was incredible! The only suggestion I would have to the owner would've to add to the dessert menu. We ended up with chocolate cake which was tasty but very rich. Overall this is a great place if you are willing to pay good money for great food and drinks! read more

We have been to Deno's a few times over the past 15 years but last nights dinner was incredible - every aspect of it from the homemade bread and wonderful wine selection to the perfectly prepared entrees. I had the filet medallions with shrimp and my husband had the ribeye- bother pieces of meat were so full of flavor and perfectly prepared. The server was wonderful and attentive as well. The price point is much more palatable when the experience is that perfect! read more

DO NOT GO HERE !! The food the atmosphere the people that work here are horrible customer service is terrible!! Couple days ago my family and I went to a trip to Winter Park and this was the first restaurant we saw so we stop by . First of all there isn't anyone to greet you or sit you down after 10 minutes the manager came out the back room with a horrible attitude sat us down .As we started ordering our waiter was extremely rude and look like he was having a bad day.For a place that is EXTREMELY OVER PRICED plus all the extra fees they charge on top of your bill .I would at least expect good service and good food .Never ever again will I eat here .I should have just gone to McDonalds across the street. read more

Pricey but good quantity and quality of food for cost We started with the bread and ravioli. Excellent. Several of us split steaks - so good. Other members in our party at chicken wings and pasta All super pleased with service and food. read more

Got a Gyro, the meat was dried out like jerky, nice waiters and everything. But the kitchen needs to be better

Delicious food! We had the steak and they let us split the 14 oz which was definitely enough for 2 of us. It was delicious. We tried a couple beers and the sangria at our table- all was wonderful. The server was friendly and down to earth. The atmosphere was more laid back than we expected and definitely a bustling place to be. read more

We stayed in winter park for a night and had heard about Deno's at our hotel. After checking out the yelp reviews and menu, we decided to give it a try. FYI- they are running on a very limited menu right now so do not have many of the things other helpers have posted about. Nonetheless, we found some things we wanted to try and started with the "big Greek sample platter" that was completely disappointing and underwhelming. We still wonder if someone missed a few items, maybe. We then had the Greek salad, the pasta dish with vegetables, and a couple of the gyros that were all pretty good. read more

Deno's Mountain Bistro - The Big Greek sample platter?? - Steakhouses Near Me - Winter Park, Colorado

This place makes a great gluten-free pizza. I got the pepperoni with goat cheese and it was fantastic. I think everyone had a great time here. The place gets booked when winter park is busy so it makes sense to make a reservation if you can. read more

Cozy, friendly, and fun! Joe, our server, was on top of all our requirements and our wishes for a casual girls' night out. Mountain Mule is a must! Hints of peach and brown sugar - yummm. Amazing wine list, too. Easy location for travelers in the area seeking a casual but very fine experience in the Granby/Winter Park area. Give it a shot! read more

We ended up eating dinner here twice, as the 1st time was so good. This is probably as high end as it gets in Winter Park, yet it's very casual and comfortable. Great selection of food and friendly service. I had the Pork Ossobuco the 1st night and it was simply AWESOME! I mean, one of the very best Ossobucas I've ever had. The 2nd night, I had the Black Angus Center Cut Filet with the Gorgonzola Fondue. On the menu, it states that the steaks are broiled at 1,700 degrees, and let me tell you that again, this was seriously one of the best steaks I've had anywhere, including truly High End restaurants in Aspen, Miami, the Caribbean, and my home base, Scottsdale, AZ. Truly perfect in every way. Both nights, I had 2 blue cheese stuffed martinis. I'm very picky about my martinis and these were again, perfect. When a place makes a great martini, it usually goes to say that their food is great, too. My buddy had Herb Crusted Cod and it came with Brussels Sprouts. The vegetable wasn't cooked all the way and really not edible. He told our waitress and she literally took off his entire $31 entry off the bill, which was way above and beyond what he was expecting. The 2nd night, which was a Thursday, was very packed, but w were seated immediately and although service was slow, it was still First Class all the way. This was our favorite restaurant in Winter Park and next time we visit, we'll be back for more. Fantastic place! read more

Left hand! Been 22 year and I still like it. Fun bar and great food. Steaks with crab cakes/ wedge salad!

Food is fair. Service is lacking, like every single spot in winter park! If you want great service, Winter Park is NOT your place. read more

Honestly, I don't get what the reviews were about. Maybe we ordered the wrong thing? The staff was really friendly which is why I gave it more stars because based on food alone, meh. Ordered: Caesar salad, tuna poke, burger, stroganoff, cheese pizza, house bread. Caesar dressing was more like a creamy dressing, not your traditional Caesar at all, definitely no anchovies. The tuna was okay, but not very firm. Cheese pizza was good per the kiddos, burger was standard nothing special, house bred was fresh. read more

Strong 4 star. Excellent dinner for a good weekend of skiing. Started with the toasted raviolis and pepper blue filet tips. Alexander Valley Cyrus to drink. Stroganoff, Bolognese, Pepper Boy, and Gyro. All were very good. read more

Cute older style lounge atmosphere. The service was very good - attentive and interactive. The food was delicious as well. Needed reservations for sure - it was packed read more

I will start with the fact that I was overcharged by about $30.00 and have submitted a dispute with my bank for this. That's more than my overall check cost of about $21! I visited during happy hour hoping for a drink and an appetizer. The outside is charming but the inside is dark and dingy with very low ceilings. However it was crowded inside so I held out hope for good food. The staff in general seemed to care more about visiting former staff members than serving patrons. Several staff members crowded around their table bringing multiple drinks and talking throughout my time there. My server was the bartender, who came by to take my order at a high top table then disappeared. Anything he said to me about the status of my order was done while briskly walking by - he seemed in too much of a hurry to stop and speak to me. I have a gluten allergy and had to explain the process of asking the cook/chef to change their gloves to avoid cross contamination. He didn't understand that because the dish I ordered didn't contain gluten, there couldn't be cross contamination. Their menu at least indicates which items are gluten free, but staff should have an awareness to know how allergens work or know to ask someone. I ordered the burrata caprese which was unique and had good flavors, but the basil and balsamic were WAY too heavy-handed. The whole thing ended up soggy and way to saucy, but was a creative way to set it up with heirloom small tomatoes and a large chunk of burrata. I ordered an aperol spritz which was also terrible and I could only manage a few sips. When I had stopped eating for over 10 minutes I finally got up and asked the bartender for the check, then had to get up again and ask for him to take my payment after he again disappeared. What a disappointing experience. read more

I really enjoyed the experience in the rustic, somewhat dated decor, sitting next to a warming fire. Amazingly, the French Onion soup was just Ok. Skimpy helping, and watery broth. I've had MUCH better and this establishment should be ashamed at the half-assed attempt. Also shared the Greek Plater app. One dolmas cut up (? Weirdly cheap) a few olives, and a few oz hummas, and other dips:?Tourist Trap! The shining redemption came from John the Server, who was Extremely helpful choosing a good wine! Extra STAR read more

So we came here for my birthday. Everything looked pretty good. But we asked for a recommendation. They said they were known for the steak. So I ordered the Filet. OMG. I mean we cook. And we know good food. But damn. Get it. We ate so well. We only shared one dessert.... Apple pie was the choice..., suffice it to say we came back two days later after dinner elsewhere to have dessert. So. Get the steak. And get the Apple pie. And mark the bartender is amazing. Order his espresso martini ! read more

Order consisted of a steak salad, steak medallion entree and 2 glasses of wine costing over $100. Lettuce was wilted and steak was poor quality. The server was loud and uninterested. After eating here for several years, we won't be returning. read more

When I went to Denos, I got some kind of pasta. The next day, I got very sick, and so did my friend. She was horse back riding, and vomited in the middle of it. So definitely don't consume a pasta with any raw items in it. The sickness spread out through the whole group, and it was not fun. And the lady who was the guide for horse back riding says she hasn't been there in four years cause she got very sick and knew many who also did. Don't recommend it. read more

Fun happy hour! Great drinks. Usual bar food. Can't speak to their entrees b/c we just did happy hour cocktails and snacks. Rasa was our server and she was wonderful! Fun, kind and quick w/ the drinks. Yummy evening before sunset viewing! The grapefruit cocktail is yummo! read more

The positive reviews convinced us to try Deno's when we were in town recently. This seemed to be Winter Park's nicest restaurant. However, the place is on the older side; the inside is a dimly-lit cavern with dated furniture and loud 1980s music. There were newspaper clippings on the walls of their glory days back in the early 2000s, which is apparently when they last refurbished the place. They had some decent Happy Hour specials and a good kid's menu, but nothing was clearly marked as gluten free or vegan. We were told that breads would be substituted for gluten free versions without any additional charge, but there were indeed extra charges on our bill. The food wasn't very fresh-tasting and the service was rather lackluster. Unfortunately, we probably wouldn't come here again. read more

I was pleasantly surprised. I've hadn't had good luck at touristy location or seared ahi for a while. So this was refreshing. The service was awesome and prompt. The waiter got our kids order first and that helped keep our kids calm. I was a little worried about the price, especially restaurants in tourist areas. The place was slightly dingy. My wife liked her food and my kids finished theirs which is rare." (On both accounts). Good food and friendly service! Great for large groups for some drinks. read more

My boyfriend and I LOVE Denos. Every time we come to Winter Park, we make a point to stop here. Everything that we have tried here is amazing! You can't go wrong with an order of french onion soup and filet tips. If I could give it more stars, I would. :) read more

The gyro I had was as good as any Ive ever eaten! Highly recommend! Wife live the crab/shrimp Sammy, too!! Beer choices rock, too!!

We were up in Winter Park for the weekend and needed a place that was kid friendly and took reservations. This place fit the bill! Everyone like their food- some items stood out more than others. Here's the rundown: Grilled artichoke: 2 1/2 stars - decent flavor but hard to eat, not a lot of meat, and I'd have preferred a garlic butter to dip opposed to the dill aioli. We would not order this again. Cauliflower Curry: 3 1/2 stars- This was my dish and I was happy with it but I'd probably try something else first. Margarita Pizza: 5 stars! Delicious. Pizza is their thang. Chicken Marsala: 4 stars- chicken was cooked very nicely and the mushrooms were perfection. Rustic Medallions: I didn't try any of this dish but it looked great (huge portion of steak and shrimp) but it does have a dusting of parmesan and the person who ordered it hates cheese so that was tough for him. Kids had the chicken tenders and mac and cheese. Both were healthy portions. The mac and cheese looked pretty good but didn't have much flavor. The bread that they bring to the table is phenomenal. That might be driving this 4 star review! They also made sure to give us a corner table a bit out of the way so we could corral our kids. Definitely happy with our experience here and we'd return. PS. We managed to come in on the tail end of happy hour which runs from 3-6 daily. There are drink deals ($2 off wines and some others) and then some of the appetizers are discounted as well. It applies to anywhere in the restaurant, not just at the bar, so that was a nice surprise too! read more

5/19/18 I guess I should be happy. It's a small town in the mountains of Colorado. Really shouldn't be expecting such a semi-fancy restaurant here. And of course I wasn't expecting anything world class, and well, it wasn't world class but at least it was mostly edible, and most importantly, the steak was pretty good! Unfortunately service was just okay. They're nice folks, but no one comes by the table. They also just throw the plates on the table without really caring where they land or who they face. It was definitely nice thought that they were willing to split checks for 13 separate people at the table. I dunno why it's so hard, but for some strange reason most restaurant don't wanna do that. Anyway... 1. Bread and Butter: The butter was weird--it was whipped but was all broken in pieces, still frozen. The bread though, even cold, was delicious!--super moist, super high in gluten. Dense and amazing. 8/10 2. Red Sangria (Tap) $9 "svedka citron, la terre merlot, peach puree": Almost no fruit flavor. Like a sweeter red wine with just a small hint of juice. Not a proper sangria, but maybe some weirdos would dig it. 3/10 3. 14oz Certified Angus Center Cut Ribeye $39 "top choice aged beef, cut thick, seasoned with Deno's signature steak rub, finished with sea salt, broiled at 1,700 degrees, served with Chef's choice vegetable and roasted red potatoes with herbs and balsamic": AH YES. After that stupid long description it better be good, and it was!!! Quite salty, so I'd say it was more than "finished with sea salt" but more like drowned in the stuff, but man was the meat amazingly tender! Strangely, the middle was more done than the rest... weird right? They need to work on cooking the meat evenly given it was overcooked in the middle. The vegetables on the side were tasty too. If it was cooked perfectly I'd score even higher, but even despite the over-seasoning and overcooking, it was still.... 8/10 4. Side of Sauteed Rainbow Chard $5 "pancetta and cannellini beans": What pancetta!?!? Mushy too. The beans were broken and weren't attractive. 3/10 5. Soup du Jour, Roasted Chile Soup Cup $4 / Bowl $5 6. Pickle Plate $5 "spicy brussels sprout, curried cauliflower, house kosher dill, caraway sauerkraut": The cucumber pickles were standard, but the pickled brussels sprouts was a bit different, though not perfect--they weren't crunchy but the idea was cool. A bit spicy overall. Nice. 5/10 7. Grilled Whole Artichoke $11 "tzatziki sauce": Standard but well made. 5/10 8. Rocky Mountain Trout $22 "garlic herb butter, pepperonata, sauteed rainbow chard, pancetta and cannellini beans": I didn't actually try this, but I saw others ordering this. It was really ugly--like a slab of meat with torn skin. Totally unattractive. NOTE: They make ZERO desserts in house!!! Now that was kinda shocking for a nicer steak house. So I skipped my favorite course. 3/5 #steakhouse #colorado #winterpark read more
