    Nachos with beef
    Theresa R.

    The big deck is the best. After riding bikes we like to drop in for some live music and a bite to eat. Shared the nachos today and margaritas are a must. Such a good vibe

    Dog friendly and brought ice water for the shiba

    Great deck seating, lots of friendly service. Love the location is accessible from the bike trails! Pup friendly, we rode bikes along the river and enjoyed the deck on a beautiful day. Loved the big margarita with a coronita!

    Came with family and we asked to site outside because it was such a wonderful day and the weather was beautiful. We were led out to their huge outdoor patio and seated in an area that overlooks the parking lot, the trail head for the path along the South Platte River. The inside of this restaurant is so fun with seats created out of car parts, like the tail lights, the grill, etc. We are glad we chose to sit outside. Server was Billy, who was so personable and we thank him for his great service! The two alcoholic drinks ordered were the spicy bloody Mary and the Modelita Michelada, which both people raved about! We also ordered the chips and salsa and a bowl of the Queso, both of which were fresh, just the right amount of spice, and so good! We came for lunch and dishes ordered included the Smothered Chicken & Bean Burrito. It was huge and filled with lots of chicken and beans and covered with a great green pork chili sauce. I thought it was a bit spicy but everyone else loved it! Also had the chicken Caesar wrap, the taco plate, and I had the patty melt. Everyone raved and I posted pictures. My patty melt was so good, with lots of cheese and grilled onions and I asked for the thousand island on the side and asked for yellow mustard because that's what I love to dip my melt in! Also got the tots, which were fried to toasty perfection. A fantastic patty melt. We also ordered the kids mac and cheese and our kiddo loved it! Looked like Kraft Mac & Cheese but she loved it! While we were there, there was a live band setting up. They were great to the kids who were hanging around checking things out. What a fun place with great food!

    Food was fast and delicious and our service was amazing with Ms.Annie! Live band on patio.

    Superbowl Sunday, so me and some buddy's bought into the Superbowl squares ($200) all day been trying to get our numbers, one call was answered and I was promised someone would call back..never happened. This Sucks to watch the game and not know if you won.. and Now no one will answer the phone. Take the money and run.

    This place has good beer & views but their chips taste like they came out of a box. The patio is a great place to have a beer

    Hang out bar. Quite crowded. Burgers were okay, but very pricey. $60 for two cheese burgers and iced tea. Not a place I would visit again.

    The Chile Rellano's were smothered in green chili and gooey cheese and I probably could've eaten another plate but had to get back to work.

    This place is a hidden gem! There's a lot of things going for it…read more Drinks- quality and consistency of great drinks. They have an amazing happy hour and a good drink program which specializes in classic cocktails, wine and beer. Every drink reaches a gold standard for the industry. Sunday's is customer appreciation and you get first drink free! Ambience: this place is amazingly clean and comfortable. Plenty of cushy chairs and couches, dimly lit and even though they have TVs, the focus is on a chill playlist and not a blaring sports bar atmosphere. My kinda place! Hospitality: This place shines with their hospitality. Their staff is kind and accommodating- shout out to Arvind the best of the staff! We have come many times with groups and they are usually willing to comp us a drink here and there as a gesture of kindness to the group coming in. You will always be treated well here, is my experience. I will always recommend this place for a chill time and high quality of service!

    Yelp's weekly suggestions are some spot-on and timely. Had it not been for one of them I recently…read morereceived, I don't think I would discover this hidden bar. Its overall chicness in a spacious lounge-style room immediately cooled me down once I arrived (on the day I visited after work, the temperature outside was soaring in upper 80's.) The time was around 4:45pm. If I am not mistaken, their happy hour is 3-5pm. I thought I was in the middle of the HH rush but there were still plenty of seatings available and yet the place was nowhere near empty. And yet, I found just the right spot so I would be away from all the chatters emitting from the people mainly sat at the bar. The selections for wine (red and white) as well as the tap beers are quite the variety. During the HH time, the drinks are only $5 for beer on tap, well mules, wells spirits and any wine on tap. For a chic/elegant/upscale place such as this place, this pricing offer is extremely generous. I simply couldn't think of anything other than refreshing cold white wine so after getting a little suggestion from my wonderful waiter, I went with the Angeline Sauvignon Blanc (the regular price is $12 so I saved $7.) As much as I am a wine person, I don't go by the rigid rules. White win should generally be served between 45°F and 55°F (7°C to 13°C) and yet at home I chill my (white) wine in the freezer for a bit so it will be super cold. This is a must for me. And to my surprise, when they served me the Sauvignon Blanc it was pretty close to the super chill temperature I am used to. As if they read my mind, I was quite surprised and happy with the cold crisp white wine. It was a quick stop to have a little "after work" cocktail on the way home so I didn't get any food and yet that crisp chilled white wine I was served instantaneously made me a big fan of this cocktail lounge. When I asked my waiter when the place opened. He said it opened in 2019. I simply couldn't believe it. If it's been around for this long but the fact that I recently heard about it stunned me. And if I am not mistaken, the waiter said that another location is about to open in a different area in the Denver metro. It's nice to know that this business is thriving. Good for them.

    STEPH JUDGEMENT: If pinball's your jam, this is the place…read more If you're a mature (read: one of drinking age) pinball fan, this is a really cool place. They had $15/hr for unlimited play as of this writing and our party of four certainly got our money's worth. It wasn't crowded at all on a Monday at 1pm (unsurprisingly) and we kind of took over the place. An older gentleman was working the whole place, and he made some surprisingly good cocktails for what is basically an arcade. It's not huge, but a decent size, with two floors. A few machines on the first floor was off limits for unlimited play, but everything else was fair game. Our favorites were the South Park (natch) and Iron Maiden machines, along with an oddball non-pinball machine called Ice Cold Beer which was simple but quite challenging. A great place for flippin' and sippin', as their sign says.

I'm no stranger to dive bars, but the rest of my family was not very comfortable. So I'd say this is not a family-friendly establishment. Service was unreasonably slow for how unbusy they were.

They were pretty bad. I can taste when meat is low quality, and this is it. It's like finding the lowest quality frozen ground beef patties on manager special at Walmart.
