It was late and we had just flown into town to visit family. We were so hungry. Off to Steuben's! Aug a great space, it was so cute and welcoming and I can see why our family who lives nearby enjoy being regulars. The standouts for us were the meatloaf. It was amazing. I want the dang recipe! It was so flavorful and the texture was perfect. And the salad. Bleu cheese and bacon are always good but the combination of peppers and proportions of lettuce to toppings made this salad exceptional. Finally the key lime cheesecake ended the meal with groan of enjoyment. Definitely worth a stop. There were so many menu options I hope to try others during our next visit. read more

A highly reviewed restaurant for classic American dishes that's well themed. We made a reservation through OpenTable and were able to call the restaurant to make modifications when we knew we were running late. The staff member on the phone was very accommodating and helpful. It took us a few tries to find parking, but there is street parking available nearby. They have both indoor and outdoor seating available. We were seated on the covered patio that was equipped with heaters. The heaters were on full blast on a 73 degree day. We asked if it was possible to turn down the heat but they said they could not. It's good that they have strong heaters for colder days but it's a lot less pleasant on the warmer ones. It was to the point where my entire chest and face were bright red by the end of the dining experience. One of the people in our party ordered an iced tea and all of the ice melted after a few minutes. The service started out on the more negative side. Our server kept disappearing and his nose was visibly running when he came by the table. His responses were also very short when we asked questions. He did appear to be in a much better mood later on in the experience after we had our food. He began to check on us more frequently and was a lot more chatty. The monkey bread was on the more dry side and some of the pieces were very crispy, but it had a good level of sweetness that wasn't overwhelming. The rest of the food was just okay. I ordered the North Shore 3-way and the entire bottom bun was soggy. I ended up just not eating the bottom bun because it was extremely mushy. The flavors of the dish didn't mix well together. Their version of a smash burger was pretty good. It looks a little bit lonely if you order it as is because it doesn't have a side that comes with it unless you pay extra. They have a lot of cocktails that looked interesting, but we didn't end up ordering any during this trip. Based on this experience, I wouldn't feel the need to return on my own but I would give it another try if someone else wanted to go. read more

We arrive for a very late lunch around 3:15 PM on a Friday and we're surprised how popular it was. The wait staff and servers were friendly and efficient, and the food was excellent. I had the Cuban sandwich which was very good, and I used to live in Miami and Tampa so I know. We also had the fried pickles, and I recommend getting a side of the spicy sauce with them. Very tasty. Friendly staff, and hip atmosphere, and all around good times. read more

Stopped in this weekend to try the brunch menu! Started off with the deviled eggs which were delicious and went for the tomato and avocado benedict. It came out with perfectly poached eggs and a large serving of crispy potatoes! We also ordered the cookies n cream milkshake which was delicious, their milkshakes are a classic staple and they have a ton of fun specialty flavors as well. The restaurant was relatively busy but we were able to be seated immediately without a reservation. The service here is always wonderful and while the brunch menu has a wonderful selection of items, I'm definitely still biased to their happy hour menu! read more

I had a fantastic dinner here last night. It was my first time at Steuben's. My waitress was very kind and professional. I very much enjoyed my interactions with her. The interior of this place has a sleek retro 50s modern vibe. They serve home cooked comfort food. I ordered the pot roast with their specialty biscuit and a club soda with lime. Club soda tasted really good! Their pot roast is out of this world. If you're a pot roast fan like me, order it! I also ordered their bread pudding for dessert. The portion is big and plenty for two people. It wasn't overly sweet too. The waitress was correct when telling me the sweetness level. Overall, very impressive! I will probably return here when I'm back in town on Sunday. They're known for their fried chicken and I want to try it as I'm a huge fan of it. read more

Service was fast and super nice! I enjoyed the old timey atmosphere with the old menus and newspapers on the wall. Chicken pot pie- very yummy I loved the crust it was so flaky and buttery Salmon- this was hands down the best thing I ate in my time in Denver. The chickpea salad was so yummy and the lemon juice on top made it so good Brussels sprouts- I think they just gave us a bad batch bc they were so salty and we couldn't eat them but they took it off the bill and gave us a slice of cake Carrot cake- I will always love a carrot cake so nothing crazy to report on that read more

I want to preface this with our server was amazing and management was super cool. We loved our dining experience from a service standpoint. Also kitchen has nothing to do with the changes they just follow orders so it is owners fault. WHAT HAPPENED TO YOU?!!! 10 years ago you had an amazing menu and everything on it was bomb dot com. Now the same gravy fries are somewhat gravy and cheesy and they had no flavor. The monte cristo used to be fluffy battered and now it's just crispy and not the good crispy. The biscuit was super dry and inedible. The bread pudding was burnt when it came to me. So sad. Did you fire your chef or did he quit??? Whatever you do bring them back please. The hot chicken had too much spice not enough flavor. Also the pickles used to be scratched made here into pickle spears. Also charging for sides is criminal. The Brussels sprouts were the best thing. Please have an open forum where the public helps you make adjustments to the menu to bring back Steuben's to its former glory. THE PUBLIC WANTS TO HELP YOU!!! We want our favorite restaurant back. read more

Midcentury styled restaurant in the uptown neighborhood! While it is a popular brunch spot, I recently ate here for dinner on a cold night. They offer many comfort food options! That said, the chicken pot pie ($18) was a very hearty and tasty option! Loved the flaky and crisp pot pie pastry cover and the filling had great flavor! However the filling may have had to wait on the crust- the crust was hot and obviously freshly baked while the pot pie filling was warm but not hot. We had good service - friendly, timely, and personable. There were three of us dining in and we had a nice table/booth near the entrance. Our party also had: -the green chile cheeseburger which for $16, (served burger only, no fries or sides) was reported as fairly unremarkable. Visually, I thought it could have been presented better as the bun looked smashed or roughed up/fast food style. -and the fried chicken plate ($25). My friend said the fried chicken was good but some of the white meat was pretty dry. As a whole, while the restaurant has diner like inspirations, do not expect diner like pricing. One note for ambiance, the music was too loud for the aesthetic and busyness of the restaurant that evening. We had trouble talking/hearing each other over the music. The speaker was right above or table so that may have underscored the issue/volume level for us. read more

There may be other diner's in Denver, but this one is the most elevated. The menu is fairly broad, but not so big that you can't trust it. There's really no way to point to one thing on the menu, everything is really good elevated diner food. We snuck in before the brunch rush with our toddler and the staff were so great. This is really a standout staple of the Denver food scene. read more

Oooh WOW , this place was fun for a Christmas Pop-up bar! Had friends come see me for the New Year and they still wanted some holiday cheer. We just made the cut off for visiting the Christmas set up. Made reservations via Open Table. The restaurant had a parking lot and there were spots on the street as well. They had the entire enclosed patio decorated and they had heaters going. They even turned it down for us as it was a bit too warm. Our server was awesome. We ordered off the happy hour menus and some stuff off the regular menu. They had so many fun holiday drinks. The Parker rolls melted in our mouths and they had a delicious Monte Cristo. Ordered a dreamy creamy carrot cake slice . Not too sweet , it was just right. It was a very relaxing and welcoming experience. read more

After 8 years of living in Denver, we finally tried Steuben's Uptown -- and I'm glad we made a reservation because the place was packed! Once seated, we dove into their extensive drink and food menus. Our waitress took our drink order right away, and though it took us a few extra minutes (okay, about eight) to decide on food, she was patient and friendly. Drinks arrived just as we finished ordering, which was perfect timing. We started with the fried pickles, which came out piping hot -- delicious, though just a touch over-seasoned. For mains, I had the pot roast and my husband went with the chicken pot pie. Both dishes were hearty, comforting, and generously portioned, but a bit heavy on the salt. We definitely noticed it the next morning when we were both super thirsty! Overall, Steuben's Uptown delivered great service, satisfying comfort food, and a lively atmosphere. A solid 4 stars from us read more

Had such a wonderful experience here with my husband and son this evening. We made a reservation and they had a table set up with a kids menu, crayons and high chair ready to go. For $12 you got a choice of kids entree with a choice of side + glass of milk, veggie sticks + dip, orange slices and soft serve for dessert which they even brought over sprinkles for. Their happy hour burger deal is great and was $13 for a burger, fries and PBR which they let my husband swap for a fountain drink (and provided free refills for at no charge). Our server was super attentive and filled up his Dr Pepper without prompting before it was even empty! Their milkshakes are delicious and giant. They even provided an extra cup with the leftovers that didn't fit into the glass so it was easily enough to share between 2-3 people. Also love that they have their own parking lot. Great family spot and especially budget friendly during happy hour! read more

such good food!!! super nice wait staff as well. everything we tried on the menu was amazing and well executed. went back the next day craving more! read more

Great, charming diner in Denver with awesome service and a fun, welcoming vibe. The lobster roll was good, but honestly not worth the price tag. There are better things on the menu to try. Still, it's definitely a spot worth checking out, especially if you enjoy places that have been featured on Diners, Drive-Ins and Dives. read more

I ordered the fried chicken per the waiter's suggestion. The chicken was very moist and seasoned. There were three humongous pieces and I took half of them in a to go box. The gravy was typical, nothing specially flavored about it. The service was good, our waiter was very friendly and gave suggestions. The restrooms were large and clean. The interior design of the restaurant is very American with newspapers and pictures on the walls. If I wasn't an American, this restaurant is how I would imagine an American restaurant would be like. read more

Steuben's Uptown - Fried Chicken* - Diners Near Me - Denver, Colorado

Steubens is really pricey for what you get. I had a beer, banana split, and some loaded fries and after tip, it was about $70 . And the food is ok. Both times I have been here. I have sat at the bar. The bartenders and wait staff both times seemed unenthusiastic and not real welcoming. It's almost as if they tolerate their customers being there. On this trip, I had some smothered french fries and an ice cream sundae banana split bowl. I mean, you really can't mess up ice cream but the presentation I thought it could've been a little better. My banana was literally broken up on top. This smothered fries, lacked care on the plate or any garnish. I don't know if it's the management here or what would have employees care so little about the people they are caring for. Even when placing an order for more food or beverage it seemed really difficult. It's almost as if you have to place your entire order at the time they're ready to take your order or it's an inconvenience . I have now tried this restaurant for brunch and for dinner. My interactions with staff were very similar both times. I even had someone from the wait staff complain to me about having to go to work that day and they should've called out sick. And the food both times was a 5 to 7 out of 10. People are impressed with the ambience a lot. It has that 1950s diner feel but it's a little more upscale than that. It does have a nice layout and it is cozy. But you probably can cook better at home. I know this is a local favorite however, I will not be suggesting this restaurant to anyone as a place for us to go for dinner or anytime. read more

Fantastic food, service and ambience! These folks know how to put out some amazing grub, and got three thumbs up out of three in our picky group. The manager made a point to visit the tables while we were there and made you feel they truly appreciated your business. Pretty darn good, given the lack of service times we are in these days. This place has its own parking lot, so no parking issues and establishment was spotless, including the rest rooms. Will he back for sure! read more

Steuben's is hands down one of my favorite restaurants in Denver. It's the kind of place that feels nostalgic in the best way...classic, unfussy, and consistently great. When friends or family come into town, this is usually my go-to. The food is approachable, comforting, and always solid. On my most recent visit, I came in craving two very important things: burgers and their fries and let me tell you, it delivered. We tried a few different burgers: The Cheeseburger was simple and satisfying with a brioche bun, American cheese, fresh toppings, and that classic combo of mayo and mustard. The Crunch Burger might've changed my life a couple of years ago (I celebrated a big promotion with it), and it still holds up. The pressed bun, melted cheese, tangy special sauce, and those griddled onions? Unreal. The Patty Melt was next-level. I'm a patty melt person (read: I've had the one at Whataburger's), but this one hit different. Perfectly toasted marbled rye, gooey cheese blend, and rich caramelized onions and just chef's kiss. Then there was the boozy piña colada shake: coconut rum, pineapple, vanilla soft serve, toasted coconut, and a cherry on top. I usually avoid ordering blended drinks at bars but here? No shame. Just creamy, coconutty goodness. Also worth shouting out: their fried chicken, deviled eggs, and that rich chocolate cake that has almost brought me to tears. Every time I leave Steuben's, I'm full and happy. Whether you're stopping in for brunch, happy hour, dinner, or just dessert...this place is always a win. Don't overthink it. Just go. read more

I have never experienced an employee let alone a manager who was so rude and unhelpful serving food this expensive. She is so unwilling to help and tries anything to not help. The other employees are very kind however the manager is a nightmare of a person. The food was okay but after waiting 20 minutes for a small salad and fries it's not as yummy. Ambiance was bad as the manager puts a dark cloud over the whole space. read more

First time here but can't wait to come back again! This place was great, plenty of seating, dedicated parking lot, and a style that blends classic/retro in a modern way (if that makes sense). We got seated right away, and all the staff seemed nice and chill. Had to go for the the special which was a burger, fries, and a drink for a super affordable value! The burger was soooo tasty, just a good all-around burger. And the fries!! Not sure what it was, but they were just soooo good to me, perfect level of crisp and saltiness. We topped it all off with the key lime pie cheesecake which was delicious!! Fantastic all-around, can't wait to come back! read more

Dined here for lunch on 3/9; Steuben's is still top-notch. The lobster roll is the shining star here, but there are plenty of other really good options to choose from (the lobster roll was featured on DDD back in 2011). It is a cool spot, with great ambiance. Highly recommend for any occasion. Cheers to 20 years of being open! read more

We really love this place. We visit Denver once or twice a year and always go here one night each trip. It has a great relaxed vibe. Feels like a diner that has been there for decades. We had a late lunch the day we went. So we were looking for a meal that wasn't big or heavy. We had salmon and Cobb salad as our entrees. I also had a side salad. The salmon came with a warm chickpea salad which was tasty and something different. We did split a warm, chocolate chip cookie for dessert. read more

Retro diner heaven! I don't normally go for diner food, but this was open late and near our accommodation. I love the retro decor, with the arched lamps and chrome seats, and wood paneling We ordered: - the Nashville hot chicken: I have a medium low spice tolerance and this was hot enough that I didn't get much flavor from the chicken beyond the burning capsicum. The mashed potato sides helped! - monte cristo sandwich: one of the better versions my friend has had but very rich - root beer float: classic, generous portion - a cocktail whose name and ingredients I forgot but it was good! Logistics: - indoor and outdoor seating - small parking lot to the side read more

Went here for brunch the last few times, and it is still great! I think I prefer their brunch more than anything else The Waffles from the Chicken N Waffles is so fluffy and delicious. A little on the pricier side, but it is all so tasty! Their Micheladas are interesting as they have mango chamoy in them leaving it with a very tangy and sweet taster rather than the usual savory versions. Their Chicken is juicy and tender! read more

Loved this meal! The ambiance is so cool! It was very busy so I grabbed a seat at the bar while I waited and that was great. Loved the fried pickles!

I will definitely be back if I am in Denver again read more

Cooked to perfection! They offer a small parking lot, but it's first come first serve.There is also street parking available. My friends and I went here for a late lunch, early dinner. We saw on TikTok. They decorated their patio for the holidays. We wanted to sit out there and enjoy the decorations. They had heat lamps so we did not feel too cold. Even though we were outside, our waiter was still very attentive, he did not forget about us. I got the Monte Cristo. I thought it was prepared well and I'm glad they cut it up into four pieces. The meal did not come with fries, I had to order them separately so that's good to know for next time. Overall, my friends, and I had a great time and really enjoyed the ambience of the holiday decor. I would definitely come back :-) read more

So good! Being from the east coast, I know a good Philly cheesesteak when I have one and they literally fly the cheesesteak rolls in. Everything was great. They were featured on diners, drive ins and dives which I did not know until we got there and I don't think you could go wrong. I will say, all the sides are separate so be prepared. And they do charge an automatic 4% tip for the kitchen staff. I appreciate transparency so I felt it should be known. Great place though! read more

Disappointing meal at Steuben's. Our waiter recommended the Fried Chicken. It was certainly crispy, but well overcooked, dry and almost tasteless. The big bowl of gravy was supposed to soften it up I guess. The mashed potatoes were lumpy, perhaps designed that way and the dry biscuit was also crunchy. I don't know, but I think our food must have been under a food lamp for a long time. The wine and beer list is meager, with inexpensive wines. The best thing about the place was our server, Sam. He was enthusiastic, helpful, friendly and kept things moving. Parking is challenging in this neighborhood. read more

As a non-Denver native in town for a conference, I was flying solo and on the hunt for a fun, welcoming spot to grab dinner. Steuben's Uptown delivered. From the moment I walked in, the retro vibe wrapped me in warmth, think 1950s charm with a modern twist. The staff were genuinely friendly and made me feel right at home, even as a table-for-one. The food? Solid. Comfort classics done right. But the real standout? The shake. In a place that channels vintage diner energy, the shake is a must, rich, creamy, and nostalgic in all the best ways. Whether you're local or just passing through, Steuben's is a great pick for good eats and good vibes. read more

Solid diner perfect for any time of day. Retro vibes inside that is very well maintained and a lovely outdoor seating area as well. A recent brunch was top-notch. I had the "Traffic Jam" which lasted for 3 meals. The perfectly runny egg yolks mixed with the green chilis and salty potatoes was amazing! I had a side of biscuit with raspberry jam that tasted homemade. We had a kid's waffle meal that came with generous sides Our table also ordered a Smashburger which was fine and the avocado toast which was beautifully served. The service was spotty but overall good. Great cocktail menu. A true Denver gem. read more

I finally went to Steuben's uptown. I had had their items at so many festivals and events and even had been to their old location in Arvada, but hadn't made it here yet until this last week! I got the happy hour meal a burger fries and a drink for $13! That's a pretty solid deal. And the burger was cooked perfectly I had mine with cheese lettuce tomato and their burger sauce. It was juicy and crispy and made to perfection! I also enjoyed their fries which was also a pretty large portion and a coke which they quickly refilled for me too! Everything in this place was spotless so so clean and a super fun diner theme throughout. Bathrooms were also very well taken care of. What I noticed the most was how well taken care of I was! So attentive and checked on often and friendly smiles and just really lovely people! They have a bar you can sit at but I chose a seat. I did fine alone and had a nice little spot in the middle back of the restaurant. I do know they changed things over to a winter wonderland then next day so I can't wait to come with Ryan and have a little date night here or come for happy hour again! Highly recommend ! read more

Another fantastic visit to Steuben's Uptown, a retro-style diner that consistently delivers a fun dining experience. With its cozy heated outdoor seating and an easy-to-use online reservation system (highly recommended for dining in), it's a spot worth visiting for both locals and out-of-towners. I once again indulged in my favorite sandwich, The Rachel--a turkey twist on the classic Reuben. Everything about it is perfect for me ....with a special nod as it is so satisfying it keeps me coming back. While I was slightly disappointed that their seasonal hot cider wasn't available this time, I opted for a hot toddy with brandy instead (as I'm not much of a whiskey drinker). It turned out to be a delightful alternative, warming and flavorful. Parking can be a bit tricky, especially during peak times. I recommend planning a few extra minutes for arrival, as you may need to park a block or two away. Overall, Steuben's continues to impress with its ambiance, thoughtful menu offerings, and efficient service. I'll definitely be back for another round of The Rachel! read more

Sat at the bar yesterday for a quick lunch. Bartender was sweet and personable. The bartop flyer had a "special" of a Chicago dog with all the fixins, but it arrived cold. A cold hot dog is not good, they replaced it with a slightly warmer dog, which was what I ate because I was now out of time. Everyone was gracious and apologetic- Note to kitchen, don't advertise it if you can't get it right, I think they heat them in hot water, as the bun was soggy both times, and very mushy, not from the condiments. Jeez, a simple hot dog-----and it was 12 dollars, buyer beware read more

Food - Excellent Service - Excellent Ambiance - Diner vibes Had the Traffic Jam as my last meal for a weekend with Family on 9/22/2024. Traffic Jam - $15 Two eggs your way, pork green chile, LOTS of cheddar cheese, sausage gravy (luckily not a copious amt nor smothering everything), crispy smashed potatoes (like 20 of them....), and bacon bits. OMG what a monster dish, but delicious nonetheless! The mix of cheese, pork green chile, potatoes, gravy, chives, bacon pieces (not the bacon bits in a jar back-in-the-day), YUMMY!!! IF I could have this shipped, THEN I would, AND have like 4 meals or 5 depending on my hunger control per day. IF no shipping THEN I need at least 2 hours to digest this maybe....in 1 sitting, but that's doubtful. read more

The breakfast sandwich was good but nothing special, and the smashed potatoes had a lot of small crispy bits, but it was too much crispy and not enough potato. I liked the vibes though and would come back to try some of their other items like the chicken and waffles. read more
