This is the best restaurant in our neck of the woods ....by far! It's little ....it's not a chain. You'll get relaxed friendly service, and top notch food. We've been here several dozen times and never had a subpar experience. My husband always goes for the short ribs. I almost always go for dad's yellow curry. Curry? YES!!!! I get it at least once a month for takeout and it's a huge meal that my husband and I can split. Sometimes I bring the grandkids here. It's nice to sit outside where they can be a little more rambunctious in their conversation. Inside it's sophisticated. Great food, great wine. Excellent service! If you've never been here, what are you waiting for? read more

WTF is this $15 wrap? Apple not included, just added to show how pathetically small this wrap is. That is a tiny apple! I swear this wrap weighs under 3oz.... for $15! The small bag of chips adds zero to the value. American HiLo is an absolute rip-off! Last time read more

We were in the area yesterday, so decided to have brunch here. I heard the buzz and wanted to check it out! All the food fell kind of flat. I had the Caesar salad and added salmon. I liked mine, especially the salad itself, but it didn't blow me away. I was hoping for the lunch menu alongside the brunch, but they only had the dinner menu. One just doesn't feel like having a short rib at noon! (At least I don't!) Hubs had a cup of green chile and then the spicy ahi tuna appetizer. The green chile was good; I'd recommend that. The tuna came drenched in mayo and sauce, making it impossible to even taste the tuna. It was served with stale tortilla chips. Would not recommend. My daughter ordered the waffle off the brunch menu and didn't really like it. Seemed a little overcooked, maybe. Perhaps we just didn't order the right things, but service was slow (though friendly), and we won't return. read more

Went today ordered Crab Cakes which were delicious and Lobster Ravioli in a Problemo (sp) sauce. The lobster was good, but there was too much sauce! Also ordered Creme Brûlée, was good and rich, My waiter was phenomenal. Beautiful restaurant, read more

On a whim we decided to go out for a casual dinner on New Years Eve. It was 5 pm so we figured we could beat the crowds. We went to Texas Road House and the wait was already insane. With it being flu season we weren't going to hang out in such a crowded place. Los Dos was nearby and we decided we'd take a chance there instead. Driving into the parking lot we noticed HiLo wasn't busy. It isn't what we consider casual dining, and we weren't dressed for it, but we knew the meals would be wonderful. We went in to see if we could get a table. Our server, Jackson found us a table and treated us like regulars who had reservations. The meal was predictably outstanding and the dining experience was a great way to begin the new year. Their menu is diverse, with delicious high-end meals, but also spaghetti and ice cream sundaes for younger folks. As always it was a memorable meal and thanks to Jackson, a perfect dining experience. read more

We have been here for dinner several times and decided to go for Mother's Day brunch. The food was ok, not exceptional and portions were small. But my biggest complaint is that our tip amount was entered incorrectly (40% more) by the server and our credit card company brought it to our attention. We have sent two emails, and I have called twice only to leave messages with staff for the owner/manager to not be returned. It has been nearly two weeks. I really expect better attention from a small business. read more

Wow delicious!!!!! Definitely coming back. From service to food!!!!!!!!!! And the atmosphere..

This is my absolute favorite restaurant it is such a hidden gem. I have taken several friends and family members and everyone has loved it. The ambiance is so calm with beautiful and tasteful decor. The food is exquisite there isn't a dish I have had that I didn't love. Everything is so fresh and delicious. The service is excellent we love all of the staff members so far. Hilo is such a nice quiet peaceful place to go have a nice dinner I am so glad I found this place randomly, I highly recommend it. read more

The portion of the chicken parm was so huge it was legitimately two servings and there was the perfect amount of pasta to chicken ratio. That being said, the pasta was cooked a bit more than I would have liked. I thoroughly enjoyed the crème brûlée and could have shared if I had wanted to. I loved the presentation and taste of the put it together yourself style of the burrata. read more

First time at Hilo and we were super excited to check it out! We were seated quickly and looked over their extensive wine list. First was their bread with house made pesto which my boyfriend thoroughly enjoyed. I had the pan seared salmon which was incredible - it came with Parmesan creamed rice which was delicious but still light. My boyfriend had the chicken parmesean + spaghetti which he loved. Jackson was our server - he was very attentive and gave us great recommendations! Food came out in a very timely manner. The vibe here is casual and inviting. The space was very clean, nicely lit, and busy, but not overly crowded. We will definitely be coming back and can see this place becoming a regular spot for us! read more

I first visited HiLo a few years ago. But, visiting my parents I was delighted when they wanted to go there. Steve treats them so well and they love feeling like family. Jackson, JT, Ana, and Kevin all treat them kindly and make the place a home kitchen for them. But, don't think the awesome people are the only reason we love this place. The food is top notch. The salmon is a must and the chicken piccata is another favorite. If you visit here, please tell them I said thank you for tasting my parents so well. They are in their 90's and they absolutely love visiting their other family at HiLo. I hope you love it as much as we do read more

The atmosphere is quiet, bright, lovely, friendly. There are tables for a romantic dinner. Service is excellent. Staff are efficient, warm, accommodating. I enjoy sitting outside on the patio weather permitting - they do have heaters. The food is delicious. I typically have the tuna and avocado appetizer with either a salad or seared spinach with garlic and olive oil. Food seems freshly made. Others I've been with love their Italian entrées. Personally I'm not a fan AND different strokes ... Several friends of mine love them. And if you read other reviews, i may be in the minority. Love the warm bread and pesto served before dinner. I have to control myself to avoid filling up on it. Their wine selection is excellent and they are happy to serve samples before choosing. read more

We really loved this place. It's so cute inside and they also have a patio in the front. We went mid afternoon for a late lunch/ early dinner since we were heading to Red Rocks for a concert. Anyways, we were the only people in there. The service was great. I couldn't decide between two of the happy hour wines, so our server/host/bartender gave me a sample. I chose the Pinot noir. It was a great buy at the happy hour price. I ordered the roasted garden veggie sandwich. It was so good, with squash, peppers, onions, Swiss cheese and sun dried tomatoes. What really made the sandwich was the sauce and the bun. The bun was so crispy outside and soft inside and the sauce was a little sweet spicy. The side salad was really good, too. My husband had the chicken picatta which had a light sauce and came with grilled veggies. It was topped with capers. Really a great meal and very reasonably priced. I wish I lived nearby. I would go here often. read more

This is a very beautiful restaurant with amazing food and service. I would highly recommend it.

Everything, was great, our waiter and I'm sad I did not get his name was fantastic. The food is so so good, the prices are fair and they have just enough selection without being overboard. I can't wait to go back. I know this place is going to just get busier and busier but our Thursday evening dinner was perfect, you can actually hear the people At the table. Best of all plain crème brûlée because hey it's perfect plain. read more

Food was fantastic. I had the seared salmon. It was cooked and seasoned to perfection. I ordered the chopped salad with blue cheese salad dressing as an appetizer. That was the best salad I've had in 10 years. I know that's strange to say about a salad, but it was freaking amazing. Service was fast and very friendly. My Diet Coke glass was always full. The dining room is ultra clean and beautifully appointed. Convenient parking right outside the door. I'm a tourist, but if I lived here I'd be eating here frequently. read more

Great food, very nice atmosphere. Multiple visits and each time the food was great. Plus it's locally owned!

I was in Littleton, CO during Valentine's Day. My BFF and her husband invited me to join their Valentine's dinner. They raved about the HiLo restaurant. When we arrived, it was packed. We had reservations. It was AMAZING!!! I had the surf and Turf. Everything was perfect! I will definitely be back every time I'm in Denver. I also recommended it to my customers in Denver. Highly recommend!!! read more

We visited this restaurant after a beautiful hike -- the food itself was excellent. However, the experience left much to be desired due to a complete lack of professionalism and accountability from the owner. I have multiple dietary restrictions (gluten, soy, and dairy), which the waiter was kind enough to accommodate when helping me order a combination of sides. He offered gluten-free bread, with no mention of an additional charge, and never explained that ordering sides would be treated as a full entrée. When the bill came, I was shocked to see I'd been charged an entrée price for what were clearly sides, along with an unexpected charge for the bread. Naturally, I asked several times to speak with a manager -- only to be told there was no manager on duty. The owner, Peter, was present but flat-out refused multiple times to come out and speak with me, leaving the waiter -- who was polite but powerless -- to handle the situation alone. I dine out regularly with strict dietary needs and have never encountered this kind of evasive and dismissive behavior from an owner. It was unprofessional and frankly insulting that Peter would not face the customer himself when a clear service issue arose. The waiter ultimately made a small adjustment to the bill, but the experience left a bad taste. Restaurants thrive on trust and transparency -- which was severely lacking here. Until Peter learns how to properly engage with guests -- especially when he is acting as the manager -- I would hesitate to recommend this place to anyone. read more

What a little treat in Littleton. Service was friendly, fast, and full of community vibes. We devoured French Onion soup as a starter and 100% recommend it! The cava tappi pasta was my choice and I wasn't disappointed--just enough cream sauce to all the yummy ingredients including mushrooms and artichokes. Table also enjoyed the alfredo with chicken and short ribs. OMG the short ribs. They were delicious - we'll definitely be coming back for those and more. The flourless chocolate cake was also epic! read more

We decided to try this place because we wanted a nice night out on a patio. It did not disappoint! The pesto sauce for the bread was amazing! I wanted to lick the container but I have a little bit of class. My kid ate the entire pizza! He never finishes any food, but this one he just ate and ate. The lobster ravioli was in a creamy sauce. It was a great match and they do not skimp on the sauce! We also had the Sunday night pasta. It was meaty and tasted great. For dessert it was the warm apple crisp. Yum! read more

Wonderful menu with a very skilled group in the kitchen. A hidden gem. Valentine's dinner specials were prepared so well. Every course was prepared with a unique twist on spices and ingredients. Nothing was "standard fare". We are looking forward to our next visit. read more

This was an ad-hoc lunch gathering, hoping they had a brunch menu. They only had lunch but the food was really good and fresh. All salads with tuna, salmon and chicken were delicious and well cooked. The only negative is that the amount of greens in each salad was very small for the $15 price. Desserts were good as well, but the flourless chocolate cake was too dense and not very chocolaty. Service was great, they offered to put an umbrella on the patio so we can have some shade. Overall a very nice experience. read more

My absolute favorite neighborhood spot near Ken Caryl. I literally dream about the short ribs. The chicken curry is also delicious. We always get the tuna tartare as an appetizer. This is a place i could literally tell the server to surprise me and bring me anything. The food is that good. The service is always super friendly and welcoming and it is such a cozy little spot. They also have a great wine list. Can't wait until next time! read more

Ahh, late summer dinners on a patio! The patio here is a great way to kick off the summer dining season as it faces east, so the sun does not blind you at dinner.

Very disappointed with the food. Pizza tasted like it was a frozen pizza heated up and they were very stingy with parm cheese on the Caesar Salad. I could have counted the few flakes added. Ratings were high so we thought we'd give it a try. One and done. Won't return. read more

The Picatta Chicken with creamy mashed potatoes and mixed veggies was wonderfully seasoned and plated beautifully. Our server, Steve, was fabulous with incredible service!!

Excellent items on the menu. I would give 5 stars but my mashed potatoes were cold while my steak thankfully was hot. I ordered medium well and my steak was rare in the middle - rd blood. 5 stars means cooks right. Server was great. update many months later and exact same experience: loved the hot, perfectly cooked fish. Side was cold veggies. Service excellent. read more

A step above chain restaurants. Food is good. It's a bit pricey for what you get. Have to order salad separate which adds to cost of meals. Wish they would include a small salad with meals. Ambiance is nothing special. If restaurant is full it can be very noisy. Occasionally They have a half price special that is good to get in on. Used to do a daily take away pasta that was wonderful and now that is gone. A dinner with a glass of wine each is going to run you approx $100 which for this casual place seems too high for us. read more

Great little place tucked away in Littleton! The menu had a lot of interesting variations. The interior was cozy and well-decorated, and the outside tables were comfortable and well-spaced, though a downside is the view is right into a parking lot but what can you do with certain locations. We enjoyed the avocado bruschetta and the burrata for appetizers. We shared the beet salad, and the hazelnuts were an interesting and tasty touch. I had the cavatappi dish that was starred as one of their favorites, and it did not disappoint. The sauce was delicious and the artichokes and sun-dried tomatoes gave it the perfect amount of punch. The desserts were a little disappointing but just a little since I have high expectations for desserts. The apple crisp was a little too heavy on the oats, and the scoop of ice cream in the middle didn't cover much of the crisp so the ratio was off. Less crisp or more ice cream please! The new banana bread pudding was just not quite there - needs a little more moisture to make it that bit of soggy that makes bread pudding so good. The caramelized bananas on the side were a nice touch. Our waitress was great, and the owner stopped by to talk to us and seemed like a lovely man. Will definitely try it again when in the area. read more
