Entertainment a plenty: live music, lots & lots of TVs, cornhole. Summer was our server. She was infectious with her happy demeanor.

Wish we had a Culinary Dropout in Kansas City (and the cool evenings of Denver in June!)

After being recommended by a friend, we decided to try this place out. The atmosphere was…read morefantastic--high energy with eclectic decor that gave the place a fun, unique vibe. I especially loved the wall decorated with Converse shoes and the great lighting throughout. The restaurant was spacious, and the open-glass kitchen let you see all the action happening behind the scenes. They offer specialty cocktails, and I tried the Birdie. It was a fun and refreshing vodka based drink perfect for summer. For dinner, I ordered the fried chicken. The menu says, "Be patient, it's worth it," and I couldn't agree more. It was delicious, perfectly moist and paired well with the coleslaw and mashed potatoes on the side. I highly recommend going if you're in the Denver area.

We came here for restaurant week and my husband and I shared everything. We got:…read more - Devils on Horseback - Duck & Potato Croquettes - Rockfish Tom Kha - Pork Osso Buco - Croissant Bread Pudding - Key Lime Curd I really enjoyed everything, but it has been few months and there are a couple of things that were so good I'm still thinking about them. The Rockfish Tom Kha had absolutely incredible flavor. I've never had it as an entree before and they do it very well. The Key Lime Curd was the other top dish for me. It was so tart which is exactly what I wanted. They have a good looking meal for Sunday dinner too and I'd love to come back for it.

I really can't say enough good things about what the Edible Beats team does. Linger was one of the…read morefirst restaurants I ever went to when I moved to Denver, and El Five has always been one of my favorites too, so I finally made it to Root Down and honestly... another win. The space feels very Root Down in the best way. Funky, artsy, a little mid century, but still comfortable and not trying too hard. Then the food starts showing up and suddenly the whole table is passing plates around because everyone keeps saying "wait, try this." We ordered a bunch of things and the smoked carrots were probably the biggest surprise for me. I would absolutely go back just to eat those again. The masa birria, diver scallops, and grilled artichokes and asparagus were all great too. The hanger steak was cooked perfectly and came with duck fat potatoes, which immediately puts me in a good mood. Dessert also fully delivered. The banana cream pie with black sesame whip was one of those desserts where you keep going back for another bite even when you're already full. It just felt like a really thoughtful meal from start to finish. Definitely one of my favorite dinners I've had in a while.

What stood out most was the staff. Every interaction was warm, welcoming, and attentive, making us feel right at home from the moment we walked in. Great service can make a meal memorable, and they definitely delivered. The food was equally impressive. One visit, I had the smothered pork chops, which were flavorful, comforting, and cooked perfectly. The next time, I went for one of their massive burritos, and "huge" doesn't even begin to describe it. Packed with flavor and enough for more than one meal, it was everything you want from a classic diner experience. Their menu is known for oversized burritos and green chili favorites, and it definitely did not disappoint. Between the incredible staff, generous portions, and delicious comfort food, Sam's No. 3 has earned a spot on my list of must-visit Denver restaurants. I can't wait to come back and work my way through more of the menu!

He set the tone right away! Warm, happy to have us there, easy to talk to. I mentioned to my friend that I was thinking about a bloody mary, and a minute or two later Ryan asked if he should get that bloody started. He'd caught it in passing conversation, not because he was hovering. That's a hard balance to strike and he nailed it all afternoon. The drinks were great. Nothing fancy on my end, a bloody mary, a shaken screwdriver. Not too strong or weak. Sounds simple, but a lot of bartenders can't consistently hit it! We all got eggs your way, simple stuff done well. The roasted fingerling potatoes were crispy outside, fluffy inside, super good!! The strawberry jam was giving homemade, but I didn't confirm. Overall, Ryan made the visit. Calm presence, good company, and there's nothing better than a brunch seat at his bar next to those big open windows!

This was just for lunch, but started out sharing the crab croquettes. Fluffy and lightly fried with a perfect mayo-based dipping sauce. A great start. I had the Koji fried chicken sandwich that was very good and we shared a spectacular gooey butter cake with a dollop of vanilla ice cream for a shared dessert. The stand-outs were the crab croquettes and the gooey butter cake. Both were incredibly good. Would definitely return and try some of the more entree-ish looking things for dinner. You should definitely give this place a try. Ciao, David

From the customer service and environment to the food and whiskey selection, I'm always impressed at how high quality of a long standing institution this is in Denver. On my most recent trip, a bar fight broke out, but our waiter James handled this with ease... even though he got punched in the face. We tipped him well. Food is always fantastic. Get the prime rib alongside a draft beer. We also ordered Tacos and Loaded Potato Skins as appetizers. I'd love to sit at the bar next time to dig into their whiskey selection!

I have been coming here since I was a kid and back then the place was packed with orange T-shirts and full of smoke. Fans would wield Bloody Mary's and cheer on the Broncos with Craig Morton at the helm. Now it is more refined and smoke free, but still a great place to enjoy sports. The classic Eggs Benedict has always been my favorite and what I get just about every time. You can't go wrong! In my younger days I would toss back a couple bloody Mary's but times change and now I mostly get Corvus Cold Brew, both drinks are solid choices. If you haven't been here you need to visit. Eat some food, cheer on your favorite team, and hit Target on the way home! BTW, Target is another Glendale anchor! Cheers, my friends!

I almost left because I was waiting like 5-7 mins to be greeted and see if they had a table available. I was staying at the connected hotel so the convenience persevered. I went just to have a beer and app while I look for a "real" place to eat. Many yelp reviews and Google searches kept bringing this place up so I stayed. They had a decent variety of oysters. I ordered 6 and they were good. First time eating a west coast oyster. I learned I prefer EC ones. The burger was delicious and the service once seated was good. The server was attentive and helpful in pointing out recommendations from the menu. It was a busy lively scene but not over the top.

Highly recommend this place to anyone looking for a great spot in Five Points.

After reading other reviews and checking out photos beforehand, I knew the Colorado lamb was a must-order. It's not something I usually go for, but it ended up being my favorite dish of the night. Absolutely worth the hype. We also ordered the birria short rib and hickory smoked picanha, and both were solid choices. The shrimp and corn grits were amazing, and I really loved the aged cheddar mac and cheese. Other dishes like the chickpea croquettes and the chili relleno were also pretty good and rounded out the meal nicely. The wait staff was fantastic. Super friendly, attentive, and made the whole experience even better. The restaurant itself has a cool, lively vibe. The only minor downside was that the outdoor heaters were a bit too hot, but that's a very small nitpick. Overall, an easy 5 out of 5 stars. Great food, great service, and a place I'd happily come back to.

I ordered off the happy hour menu - which I would recommend - I think they have a great happy hour. Got the chicken slider, burger, and a beer. The chicken slider was good - toppings were a nice touch and elevated it. Light breading, and juicy. The burger was great - nothing over the top - just a solid cheeseburger with a good sauce, and potato chips to go with it. I have had good experiences here, and love the rooftop too. Will definitely return and recommend if you're in the area looking for a drink or quick bite. Does get quite busy, especially when there are events at Mile High so be prepared - not many other spots in that area on that side of the stadium
