Very reasonable at $5 for the evening. The center opened at 6:00 pm for those having dinner with show set for 7:30 pm start. We quickly went through the security line and off to dinner upstairs. I was surprised how clean the venue was given it is a concert location. The areas were set up with chairs, couches and plenty of seating. Drinks are pricey but that is expected these days whether at a concert or a game. The dinner seating was quick and we had a nice view by the window. The buffet was ready so we sampled a little of everything. The Tri Tip caprese was very good. Meat tender served with mozzarella balls and tomatoes were juicy. The gnocchi was pretty great with a thick white cheese sauce and spinach. We also sampled the chicken sausage gumbo. The vegetable succotash was one of my favorites loaded with carrots, celery and beans. The salad was a spring mix with a lemon vinaigrette that definitely had a zippy tart flavor. Dessert was a banana pudding cup. Also super rich with the fresh whipped cream. I also thought the fact the GM for food and service swinging by everyone's table was pretty cool! Making sure we were ok and checking if we needed anything.

I am a big fan of Cirque du Soleil, and never miss a show when they are in the Denver area where I…read moreknow live. As always, the costumes and acrobatics where great, but it seemed too much time was spent with clownish acts that dragged for way longer than usual. My biggest complaint though is that they always have a live band and a main singer that adds a LOT to the overall experience and these were replaced by a recording. I don't know if it's because we were at the Budweiser Center in Loveland (although it would make no sense as I have seen a few of them in different arenas, as well as their chapiteau). There is always an act with clowns before the start, while you wait, and that one was also scratched. Lastly, during the previous performances I've been to (maybe a dozen of them), you have to look around as stuff is happening above and around the stage, and that was missing. I don't know if it's because of Covid and they are trying to save money and get back on their feet, or if they didn't bother because of the smaller venue. In any case, it was a big disappointment, these tickets are not cheap (same price as Denver) and when you are used to the high standards of Cirque du Soleil, this was a very bad surprise. Like a cheaper version of the regular shows I am used to, but with the same high price tag. I hope this is not the new trend.

I called to try to get the tickets exchanged for another game and they refused, saying ticket sales are final.

Thanks for putting my safety and the safety of my children at risk. I cannot support this team further.

The grilled cheese was crispy, and the beef was moist! The flautas were a little overcooked, but the meat inside was still soft and tasted amazing! They have a Rita's station that had the best ice cream sandwiches! They also have lots of drinks options, different beers, seltzers, and soft drinks. I will mention the price for food and drinks is a lot I spent $130 on 4 drinks and 5 different food options, including popcorn and candy. The atmosphere there is amazing, I might say, everyone is having a good time, and the staff are kind and helpful! They do a fun light show with every home team goal and fireworks after the game! When coming, be prepared and bring a clear bag because you won't be able to bring even a diaper bag in. Overall, it was a great experience, had fun with my family. We will be back!
