My first time here, and I was very impressed! The food was great, but the service was next level! The service is actually what pushes my rating from 4 stars to 5. If I could give a 4.5, I would, I think that's right on the money. The drinks were nice, the food was good, and the service was great! There were some very minor things that could use improvement in the food-- but I'm being VERY critical. The server was bragging about how nice and "not tough" the octopus is, so we made sure to get that for an appetizer. But it came plated a little sloppy, and I felt it to be pretty tough (not chewy), just tough. But the steaks were a highlight! We shared the filet flight. All three were very very good. One person at our table was vegan, and they catered to her very well. Her entree of a vegan risotto was actually the most beautiful plate on the table, and had some excellent flavors! The duck fat fries earn an honorable mention. They have some sugar on them, so they're sweet-- very interesting, but delicious. All in all, I had a great time, and the service pushed it over the edge. And the food was very well done, too. I'll be back here for dinner, annually, but back for happy hour more often. Thanks & Cheers! And see you next time! read more

Great ambiance and vibe. Bar seating with TV's to keep it casual while also being fancy at the same time. They promote dress code but since we are in Denver .... There's always going to be that guy in shorts and berks. Gnocchi was THE BEST! Little puffy clouds of heaven. I've literally never had a better gnocchi. Brussels perfectly crispy. Ribeye so tender. Asparagus was large and yet had the same crunch with every bit. Potato Pave was a first and a recommendation from our server, did not disappoint! We shared the wedge salad and they chopped and put on separate plates before bringing it out, talk about service! I could have ordered this 10x over. Every ingredient just tastes so fresh. Not only was the food to die for, our server, Arthur, was 10/10! He was the sweetest and gave the best recommendations. Let us take our time and didn't rush us out the door which was really appreciated. Our reservation was for 7:30 and I didn't see valet outside so we ended up parking in the parking garage close by. The restaurant does not validate your parking ticket if you park in the garage. I'm not sure if it's complimentary valet. read more

What can I say? Absolutely the best steakhouse in the state of Colorado and certainly the best chocolate chip cookies in Denver! The service is great, and the ambience is wonderful. I totally recommend this place! read more

Guard and Grace Modern Steakhouse - Steakhouses Near Me - Denver, Colorado

3.5 stars. I've been wanting to dine at Guard and Grace for YEARS! Finally I had the opportunity when my partner took me here for my birthday. Parking can be a pain downtown, especially when there's a sports game, but it was also a holiday so not too bad. Get here early either way. You can always park in a garage if needed. Customer service is fantasic overall - top notch and very upscale. I loved the Colfax & Holly cocktail I ordered while waiting. It's their version of a Dirty Martini. I enjoyed most things we tasted, especially the Bread & Butter and Octopus appetizer. DEFINITELY the Octopus. Anyways, the Foraged Mushrooms were incredible too - lots of flavor and variety of mushrooms. The Black Truffle Mac & Cheese wasn't anything special, in my opinion. The most disappointing part was ironically the steak. I got something off their specials menu. Regardless, even friends I talked to before coming here said to get a number of different dishes, but there was no mention of meat. I didn't like any of the sauces either. So sad, but now my curiosity about G&G is satisfied! Either way, ending with the Carrot Cake was a great decision. I don't think I'd come here again, except maybe for happy hour cocktails. read more

What a wonderful place for a special evening. Guard and Grace was the perfect choice for our anniversary dinner. The vibe is upscale, the service was excellent, and the food was absolutely delicious. For food, my wife and I shared the Filet Flight, which included samples of their prime, wagyu, and grass-fed 4 oz filets. Such a fun way to experience the different cuts, and every one of them was excellent. We also started with the Yellowtail Hamachi Sashimi, which was incredibly fresh. We also got the Oak-Grilled Broccolini and Duck Fat Fries, both of which were fantastic sides. There were also so many other side items on the menu that sounded amazing, including the Hand Made Gnocchi, Black Truffle Mac & Cheese, Crispy Brussels Sprouts, and Whipped Potatoes. Definitely a place you want to come back to and try them all. As a small extra touch for our anniversary, the staff gave us a handwritten card along with a few dessert bites, which was really thoughtful and helped make the night feel even more special. An easy 5 stars and a perfect spot for a celebration or date night. read more

Ok... I see you, Guard and Grace 10/10. Highly recommend. This was one of the best birthday dinners I've had. The food was amazing (like... every single thing we ordered), and the service made the whole night feel special without being over the top. Steaks were perfect, sides were just as good, and the whole vibe was elevated but still comfortable. If you're celebrating something--or just want a really good dinner--this is it. read more

Went to Guard and Grace for our anniversary and I can't lie... the experience itself was top tier. We sat at the chef's counter and it felt like we were part of the show a little bit. They even blessed us with a couple complimentary bites -- some yellowtail and another joint on a crispy rice cake... both of those were FIRE. Had me thinking we were about to have one of those "yeah we're coming back here every year" type nights. Service? Elite. Davin & Chris Hemsworth (there's manager that looks just like him) and other Managers checking in, our server Abbie was super sweet, drinks hitting... no complaints there at all. But man... the food we actually ordered? That's where it got a little shaky. The ribeye didn't really do what it was supposed to do. We had to ask for a lil salt and I'm sure the kitchen didn't like that. But it was just something missing about the flavor of the steak and the bone marrow texture threw me off -- not how I'm used to it at all. Brussel sprouts ain't hit either (and I LOVE brussel sprouts so that hurt a little ). Crab Oscar was solid though, I'll give them that. Overall, I'd still come back off the strength of the experience alone, but next time I'm definitely switching up what I order. This spot got all the potential... just need the food to match the vibe. Omg I almost forgot. That Octopus we had was sooooo good. I even told my wife I kinda wish I didn't share it with her it was sooo good lol. Again, we will be back. Thanks for making our anniversary special Guard and Grace. read more

YUM! We were staying in Golden but made a reservation here for a birthday dinner, and it did not disappoint. We were seated right away and greeted with water, and the service was excellent from start to finish. Our waiter, Christopher, quickly brought drinks, walked us through the menu, and shared his top recommendations. We started with the Crispy Tuna Rice, then each ordered a steak with carrots and mushrooms. For dessert, we had the cookies and the "bananamisu." Everything was absolutely incredible--it was hard to stop eating, and we left completely full! The crispy rice and the homemade cookies were definitely our favorites. The ambiance is great too--the back room feels more intimate, while the bar and front area are more lively. Perfect spot for date nights or smaller, intimate groups. We'll definitely be back next time we're in Denver! read more

If I could give this restaurant 10 stars, I would. It really is that great & a must go-to when visiting Denver or treating yourself to a meal! Our server John and the rest of the staff went above & beyond. They instantly accommodated us to a lovely table, guided us through the menu with thoughtful recommendations, ensured a water glass was never empty, and overall treated us like we were 1 in a million patrons. We had the octopus, the seafood tower, the broccolini, the mushrooms, and the brussel sprouts. I truly mean it when I say it was the BEST meal I have ever had and I like to eat good (iykyk)! The flavors were immaculate and well thought. Overall, it's a beautiful environment with some of the best food in the city! 10/10 and will come back if I ever visit the area again. read more

Phenomenal experience. The food was absolutely fantastic. When you pay money for a steak, you want it to be cooked right and when you want it bloody, you want it bloody. And they knocked it out of the park!! We had a filet that was perfect and tried bites of the tomahawk that was beautiful. Our server was super attentive and helpful. We had the tuna tartar appetizer that was spicy, but the tuna had a fishy taste and not in a good way. That was my only complaint the entire night. Otherwise the Mac and cheese, loaded potatoes, and broccoli were all fantastic sides. Would definitely be back. Its dark and moody inside, definitely created the modern steakhouse vibe. Lots of young professionals who looked ready to spend and there for the experience. We had a pretty large group and they did a great job accommodating us. read more

Booked this reservation in advance while we were here for work. The restaurant itself is gorgeous! Very chic and upscale steakhouse vibe. Lots of professionals seemed to hang out here after work. They offer a great selection of steaks, half size portions of sides (which is amazing) and an array of cocktails and wine. We got wine so o review on the cocktails, however the table next to us raved about them. Prices were reasonable for a steakhouse in Denver. Steak was cooked perfectly! I got grass fed New York and my friend got filet. Hers was slightly under but nothing she couldn't eat. The best thing on the menu... black truffle Mac and cheese!! Wow! The octopus was also tender and had great wood fire flavor. Our server was a bit all over the place and when we needed something, I had to track down someone else. Didn't love that. Would definitely come back again! read more

We walked in and were greeted by the friendly front-of-house staff. We were early, so they had us wait for a few minutes while our table was being set up. A John Mayer song came on...I immediately knew that was my sign; it was going to be a great experience. We were celebrating my new job with friends. When the waiter found out we were celebrating, he brought over a hand-signed card from the staff. We ordered a round of champagne to start, and then I ordered a Cosmonaut cocktail. It was two cocktails worth of liquid; therefore, it was sufficient for the whole meal. Our order was: Bacon Wrapped Date appetizer from special evening menu Oak Grilled Octopus Oak grilled verlasso salmon Duck Fat Fries Oak-Fired Carrots Local Farms Grass Fed NY Strip NY Strip flight Filet flight Six layer carrot cake Sticky toffee cake The octopus appetizer was the standout item. The steak flights were unique and definitely worth trying if you want to compare them. There is no NY flight, but our waiter, Jonathan, who was amazing, offered to have it done for my friend since he was interested in trying two of the options. I enjoyed my grass-fed NY strip. The duck fat fries were also very flavorful and a nice option from standard steakhouse fries. The carrots were a little undercooked but had nice flavor mixed with the herb yogurt. They brought us complementary rolls and an herb butter that tasted like it may have horseradish in it. I wasn't a fan of the flavor, but everyone else seemed to like it. For dessert, we opted for the carrot cake and sticky toffee cake. I prefer a deconstructed/classic carrot cake, so the sticky toffee cake was my preference. It was the right balance of sweetness with the cake and toffee drizzle. They also brought us black forest cookies that were incredible; they tasted just like a black forest cake. Guard and Grace has been on my list for years. I am glad I was able to get a reservation and celebrate my achievement there. read more

Another fabulous dinner at G&G! We went to celebrate our anniversary because we know it will always be amazing. We both ordered a NY strip and they were cooked to perfection with beef tallow and seasonings that hit the spot. Our waitress was attentive, but also allowed space which was great. My only small complaint this time around was that the music in the restaurant was so loud and I felt like we were yelling to communicate. Such a small thing, but worth noting. Of course we will be back! read more

My partner & I went to Guard&Grace for our early Christmas celebration together. I was impress with the hostess who was wait for me while I came out from the bathroom & guided me to my table (I went straight to bathroom after check in). Our server Brandi was very well knowledge on foods suggestions & overall hospitality that made us feel comfortable. We chose Spanish octopus tentacle for appetizer & enjoy the tender, well seasoned, umami orange sauce that compliment the octopus. We also love the complimentary Tuna bite & melt in your mouth sweet bread. Tomahawk came medium rare per requested. Well sliced & au jus sauce made the tomahawk taste better. I prefer the grilled mushroom for side dishes. The mash potatoes are not that impress to me. It seems to be cheesy on top & tastes bland. I also love my Cosmonaut with luxury globe ice cube with real orchid in it & the server pour the drink in for you on your table. It is strong& tasty. One & done drink of the night for me. We received a card that all the staffs signed for our special occasion & complimentary chocolate cake bite that was moist, tasty & intense on cocoa! Paired well with raspberry sauce. Ambiance is so modern, nice, clean with real flower on the table. I like that inside the bathroom you can get a lot of things for your toiletries included mouth wash, cotton bud, hand lotion, tampon! Overall: Impressive fine dining, Michelin guide with 47ranked of best steak house in the US. I like it all except the $400 price tag. But why not? For the memorable night with your love one. read more

Guard and Grace is bomb!! The only possible con is it's a little pricey, but man the flavors are great!! I was actually pretty full from all the food I'd had at a conference during the day but I had a res here and wanted to try some stuff. I got a 1/2 order of the truffle Mac and cheese and a 1/2 order of the wild mushrooms. It was exactly the right amount and MAN, the flavors of both were STUNNING!!! I can only imagine how the rest of the food is, they're known for their steaks so I'll have to come some other time to try. In total I spent like $33? Again this is NOT a large amount of food but if you just want to try a little bit like I did, it's the perfect amount. My server was also super sweet, very attentive, and the vibe inside was lovely - excellent for a date or special occasion. It's a big place too, lots of tables, and immaculate bathrooms!!

I always need to do an elevated dinner while on vacation. On a busy saturday at 5p, I sat at the chef counter, as I enjoy watching the cooks. As someone that used to work in an open kitchen before transferring to front of the house. I enjoy the interaction with guests. The staff was super nice. My waiter Travis was helpful with suggestions. I was given bread and like a chive butter. The bread was hot and soft. I ended up getting the hamachi sashimi because its one of my favorite fish to eat with jalapeno and ponds. You can tell how fresh the yellowtail was. As my entree, i ordered the 4oz waygu filet mignon which was cooked perfectly. As well as half ordered cod which was just like butter. Both paired so well with the gnocchi! Also, received a free oysters while talking with the executive chef as he was helping out the cold seafood area. Thank you for a great first and many to come, experience! read more

First time, certainly won't be the last, and worth the 70 minute drive from home! Service was top notch, other than our server Jon could have ask what the occasion was and been a little more friendly. Aside from that we had a great dining experience. The drinks were top notch with a wide variety, the oysters weren't the best we've had but certainly not the worst. Our favorite, the scallops... to die for!!! I'm going to be thinking about them for weeks! The waygu filet was cooked perfectly to our medium rare desire and tasted amazing too! Dessert was not eaten, but rather drank in the form of a crème brûlée martini that was spot on! To add to the experience it was wayyy cheaper than we expected! Great spot, amazing food, only wish it were further south of town. read more

Took my husband here for his birthday meal last night (impromptu staycation night - so a last minute reservation, seated at the bar overlooking the bustling kitchen). Our meal was delightful, mainly thanks to our wonderful server, Hannah! First time in forever that I didn't take pictures of our multiple courses, just enjoyed eating every bite. We loved the yellowtail sashimi and crispy rice with spicy tuna. My miso cod was far superlative to my hubby's 4oz steak, so I shared many bites. The desserts were also standouts: date toffee pudding and chocolate chip cookies. Yum! Guard and Grace is totally worth the hype, especially if you're celebrating something big. read more

I actually wasn't a huge fan of the steak here. Also disliked the Caesar salad (it had way too much cheese and the greens didn't taste very fresh) but I loved the cod entree as well as some of the sides. The chef recommended the ribeye medium rather than medium rare so that's what we did but it tasted overcooked and a little dry. I wasn't a huge fan of the filet mignon either. For the sides, I loved the crispy potato pave. We also enjoyed the duck fat fries, brussel sprouts, and Mac and cheese. Service was great and loved the somm's choices.

Holy moly. I booked a 5:00 reservation for 5 on a Friday evening for a birthday celebration. It was a first visit for everyone in our party. The table wasn't ready when we arrived but they had a lovely bar where I picked up a couple drinks. We were seated around 5:15. The service here is on another level. They staff heavily and it is clear they emphasize classic style service where they say excuse me before reaching for your glass or taking your plate. There was a swirl of activity going on but they all move around gracefully and quietly as they bring and remove plates, fill glasses, etc. They know not to touch your glass with the pitcher when filling it. They brush crumbs off the tablecloth, but not onto the floor. It's these and other little things that are almost nonexistent in most restaurants these days, including "high end" establishments. The food is also incredible. The kitchen is a well oiled machine that pumps out amazing flavors and execution. We tried it family style. A seafood tower, 16oz prime ribeye, fresh chef's special pasta, gnocchi, roasted carrots, grilled asparagus, onion and potato pave, cherry pana cotta, and banana misu. We were all blown away and a couple in our party said that was the best meal we've had in a long time. read more

Ugh, I have no words for such a fine dining and delicious place this was! I knew it was on the pricier end but I was excited because I love a good steak and I was not disappointed. The steakhouse is absolutely cute and dimly lit and the service is phenomenal. I ordered the 4oz filet mignon that was oak prime, which was one of three tiers of steak and it tasted sooo different than my friend who got the filet but the grass fed version. The oak prime was so tender and the steak tasted like butter, it just melted in your mouth. We also heard the portions were large and so we were told by our waiter that we could get a half portion so we ordered the black truffle Mac, the broccolini and the Brussels sprouts. All of it was just so tasty. It was one of the best steaks I've ever had! I loved that our servers were also knowledgeable and very attentive. They would wipe the table in between dishes and really knew what they were talking about. You do get what you pay for and while this wasn't cheap it was such a great experience. You have to come here. read more

We came to celebrate my sister's 35th birthday and overall it was an amazing dinner. The food, as expected, was absolutely delicious. We started with the wagyu meatballs and oysters -- both incredible. For our main dishes we had the grass-fed filet mignon, which was cooked perfectly, along with the truffle mac and cheese and whipped mashed potatoes. Everything was outstanding. Our server, Josh, was wonderful and took great care of us throughout the evening. When we first arrived and were waiting to be seated, Jason attended us at the bar area. Unfortunately, the interaction wasn't very welcoming, which was a bit disappointing at the start of the evening. Aside from that, the overall experience and meal were truly wow.

This just became my favorite restaurant in Denver! I dined here last night for the first time and was very impressed with everything. I made an online reservation for the Chef's bar. I highly recommend reservations as well. I made the reservation for 4:30 pm and people were already starting to come in at a steady rate. I loved that I had the whole Chef's bar sea to myself. It was great to see all the kitchen staff setting up, stoking up the wood fired grill, preparing dishes, preparing oyster appetizers. Just great to see all of it! I had a very friendly waiter. He had good recommendations and also validated what I ordered. I love that they serve you with a fresh buttered dinner roll that tastes like it came fresh out of the oven. It also came with a delicious spread. YUM! For an appetizer I ordered the oak grilled octopus. Oh my! It was sooooo gooood! Love the spicy dipping sauce it came with as well. They even throw on some delicious chopped up veggies. For main entree, I ordered the Black Alaskan Cod. It came with some veggies with a delicious sauce that covered the whole bottom of the bowl. It was so good that I could have picked up the bowl and drank the rest of it. I also ordered two sides: duck fat fried French fries with ketchup and another delicious dipping sauce. The fries were some of the best I ever tasted. The second side was whole carrots oak grilled with a nice char taste. It was served with some light onion, roasted pistachios with a delicious cream sauce. For dessert, I had their sticky toffee pudding. What a great ending to a superb meal! I highly recommend this place. I can't wait to go back! I'm planning another visit soon. Enjoy every bite and moment! read more

Reserved for a late Saturday night dinner for a group of six on OpenTable. We were able to check our coats as a group and were seated at a round table. The table placement was a little busy with staff and patrons walking behind us constantly to go into the kitchen and the restroom. I was able to make a note about our bachelorette guest and the staff provided her a handwritten note of congratulations and dessert cookies which was a very special touch. The drinks and food orders came promptly and we were consistently attended to by our server and the rest of the team. Valet parking $20 read more

One of the premier steakhouses is Denver Guard and Grace has all the upscale trimmings and feel you expect in a high end restaurant. The service is impeccable and the menu is curated to a high end seafood and top choice steaks. The interior is romantic and posh no matter where you sit and enjoy your experience here. The food is wonderful, but just shy of what I would call 5 stars at this price point. My steak, while tender and cooked perfectly, lacked any real punch of flavor I have come to expect from this level of restaurant. When paying a bill that could be mistaken for a car payment I expect to be wowed and was simply satisfied. TL:DR - Amazing romantic atmosphere, but I expect just a little more at this price point. read more

Amazing first meal at Guard & Grace in downtown Denver. For a Sunday night, the place was buzzing. From the moment we walked in, it was clear -- this isn't your father's old-school steakhouse. It's sleek, sophisticated, and full of energy. High ceilings, warm lighting, and a vibe that says "special night out" without being stuffy. A great meal starts with a great server, and we hit the jackpot with Josh. We clicked right away -- his personality, menu knowledge, and honest recommendations made the experience even better. We kicked things off with the Grilled Octopus on Josh's suggestion -- tender, flavorful, and plated beautifully. Easily one of the best versions I've ever had. Guard & Grace offers three grades of steak, and I went with the 8 oz Cornerstone Prime Filet. Cooked to perfection and incredibly tender -- like butter with a sear. Now, we almost gave in to the famous Truffle Mac & Cheese (shout-out to all the Yelpers who raved), but Josh gently warned it might be too rich. Instead, he pointed us to the handmade gnocchi (we split a half portion) and the duck fat fries -- and wow, those fries! Crispy, golden, and seasoned with pepper and sugar. Yes, sugar. Two bites in, they were already in the Hall of Fame. Dessert? We followed Josh's lead again and shared the Toffee Cake and two of the Triple Chocolate Chip Cookies. Those cookies? Absolute sugar crack. No regrets. From start to finish, it was an incredible experience. Can't wait to come back and explore more of the menu. Guard & Grace is the real deal. read more

Went for mothers day yet again this year and this time was much better! The food was excellent, I had the ribeye for my main with the whipped potatoes, the ribeye was perfectly cooked, and the whipped potatoes were amazing. I also started with the yellowtail hamachi sashimi and the grilled king crab, both were so good! The seasoning on the grilled crab was out of this world and the yellowtail was so fresh! I had "I'll say it" for my drink which was delicious. I also asked if there was fresh watermelon or watermelon syrup behind the bar for a watermelon marg and my server Juan said it was my lucky day that there was a bartender working on the summer cocktails and was able to make me a watermelon marg that was delicious! Juan was a wonderful server and so accommodating, and I was impressed with all the waitstaff really. This visit was a much more the experience I was expecting, and I will be back! read more

Guard and grace will never disappoints. I would give them a 5 star review but the sides and appetizers are not up to the standards I hold them too. We always get a few ounces of the A5 wagyu, this has incredible marbling and melts in your mouth. My gf will occasionally like the plate she likes it so much. Their steaks always hit the spot. You must try their cookies, I do not understand how they make the outside crunchy but the inside gooey. Best cookie I've had. Their desserts are a must! The restaurant is always clean and has a unique vibe while being cozy and warm. The service is amazing, they always go above and beyond. They deserve all the rave. read more

Visited Guard and Grace twice recently for an anniversary and birthday and had two similar but different experiences. Both times we were sat a bit later than our reservation, but the service was very good and we consistently had what we needed and our questions answered. On our first visit, we ordered two of the sushi based appetizers, both of which were fantastic, a salad, two steaks, and a couple of sides. The food was great - steak was perfectly cooked, the sides were delicious and we were full! While pricy, it was definitely worth it for the experience. On our second visit, we ordered an appetizer, the steak flight, an additional larger steak, and multiple sides. We asked for our steaks cooked medium - and the flight came rare enough that it was inedible. For over $100, it was very disappointing and turned me off from the restaurant. The other steak was cooked perfectly. The sides were okay, brussels were a little burnt and the mac n cheese was over salted and the sauce not creamy but more like it wasn't made correctly, but otherwise it was still good. The server brought us the chocolate chip cookies to make up for the rare steak which were to die for. I've been dreaming about those cookies ever since! Overall, great experience and would go for the drinks, apps, and desserts, but would make sure the steak is cooked enough next time! read more

We had a very pleasant meal in the bar at Guard & Grace. Although it's primarily a steak house their fish dishes were excellent. We enjoyed tuna with crunchy rice, hamachi crudo, a wonderful octopus dish and we shared a small ribeye, it was perfect.

If you haven't been, GO! It's worth every penny! We started with the crispy tuna, burrata, and oysters which were all incredible.
