We met a friend for happy hour. We arrived just before a downpour ... she arrived in it! Luckily…read morethey'd turned on the heat in between arrivals as the dining room was CHILLY! Quickly ordered drinks. Wife and friend's Chardonnays were good. Their happy hour beer is almost ridiculous ... $6 gets you 32 oz of any beer! That's amazing! I had the 90 Schilling. Finally ordered Happy Hour Sliders and I ordered the Mussels appetizer. The Sliders were reported to be good although we subsequently ordered fries which appeared almost instantly. My mussels were great + they came with a nice number of thick garlic bread slices. I'd never had mussels prepped in a cream and tomato base. The menu indicated they were prepared in a wine, garlic, butter, basil broth so this was different. Altho my tastes run to a garlic, wine lemon (and perhaps curry) broth the Lansdowne broth was subtle and really good. Curiously most of the mussel shells were almost crushed so I had to pick through a lot of fragments. But it was still great and with the garlic bread very filling. This is a really good happy hour!

It originally opened in Castle Rock back in 1996 before moving to Castle Pines, and it still feels like a true neighborhood institution. Be prepared to slow down a bit.

We decided to try Duke's last night for an extended family dinner and I am sad to say we were all…read moredisappointed. We reserved a table for 7. When we arrived, they weren't prepared and quickly pulled a table together but missed a chair and setup. This is simple but speaks to oversight and lack of attentiveness. After borrowing a chair from another table, our group sat down and no later than 30 seconds our server was asking what drinks we wanted to order. It would have been helpful to point out the drink menu or give a recommendation versus demanding to know what we wanted. The interior is noisy and covered in carpet. Over half of our orders came out wrong- wrong protein on the wrong plate with wrong side. And to top it all off, did the kitchen lose their seasoning rack? Nothing was seasoned. The steaks were a poor cut, overcooked, the poor vegetables looked like they were boiled and thrown in a serving bowl, and the baked potatoes were either straight up plain or obviously sitting under a heat lamp because the cheese was dried. I envisioned the kitchen cooking in silo, throwing their portions on a plate with no consideration of the whole meal. It's giving cafeteria food. When we go out, we measure quality by evaluating whether we could cook it as well at home. This failed by a significant margin. I'd love to support local restaurants but at this price point and lack of quality, we'll try elsewhere, anywhere but here.

Tailgate is located in the quaint town of Parker on Mainstreet. Note, there's plenty of free parking across the street at O'Brien Park. We arrived at 7 PM on a Saturday night to hear the band, Guild of Ages play at 8:30PM. Since we were there early we decided to try some of their food too. We did get a table by the stage even though the place was already very busy. First off, the band was great, awesome singer musicians & the dance floor was packed. Second, the food was really good as well. We split the "Fall of the Bone" Ribs that came with Fries & Coleslaw. These were some of the best ribs I've had in a while...sweet but spicy & yes they were falling off the bone, the coleslaw was homemade - creamy & delicious plus the fries were good & nicely seasoned. Our Server was attentive & even managed to take & deliver our drink orders thru the crowd. This was such a fun night, great to see live music AND enjoy a fantastic dinner!

Red beer and breakfast burrito for the ages. 2026 It looks and smells the same inside bringing me back to my youth. Sadly to chickens strips and beer I just had there I am certain were from 2001 as well. Stiff and burnt like a ponderosa pine after a Colorado wildfire. The cheese curds slightly ahead in quality robust in size but lacking in all other areas that would allow them to be called a curd. They do have IPAs now something that was a scarcity in the late 90's. I had a Voo Doo ranger that I can confidently say was half tap water. The waitress dawned a shameless middrift that I am quite sure would have looked fantastic also in 2001. In closing unless your Doc Brown or Marty McFly with a good supply of plutonium and a sleek stainless Delorian you should go across the street.

Breakfast for lunch? Yes, please! I like that Rory's promotes itself as a classic diner, however…read morethe breakfast menu is a step above classic. It took an extra moment before I was greeted but thereafter, the service was on par. Since breakfast is served all day, I went with the Cinnamon Apple French Toast, sans whipped cream. Today, it was made with fresh sourdough, dipped in a cinnamon vanilla custard. The vanilla is slight in flavor and the cinnamon is more noticeable in the apple compote.....which is IMHO the best part of the entree. The entree was a good portion without needing extra sides (but don't hold back if you are famished). The seating area was clean and the diner overall was nicely decorated...not overly cluttered like most diners. The tables are closely placed and best for solo, duo, or family dining. Groups might be hard to squeak in. Grateful I was finally able to make a visit.

It was a hot spring day and we opted for inside. We may try the patio on another day. Very spacious, modern and well laid out. Love the ambiance. Could be the perect location for a family dinner or that special occasion. Sat near the bar, next to the wine chiller on very comfy set up. We were served immediately with refreshing glass of water with nice looking larger water bottle in case we were super thirsty. We browsed over the wine list, charcuterie offerind and the dinner menu. The dinner menu consisted of one person or shareable. We ended up getting the Wardorf salad for $16. Plenty to share with 2 or even 3. It was very notable with pickled celery and generous amount of candied pecans. Next time, need to ask for light dressing. Fondue at $15. Not what I was use to but it is a thing to have a goat cheese and dip with vegies and fruites. Had a texture of humus served warm? Goat cheese is the main actor on this dish. Mussels and frits at $21 was definitely notable and worth repeating it. Lots of small mussels which I prefer and every one of them were open. It would habe been nice to have a bowl to put the discarded shells. I did use the small plate for shareable. Frits were delicious but I was using the bread from the fondue to soak up the juices. Delicious. Lots and lots of shallot and garlic. I thought had leeks but menu said shallots. Good was the judgement. Will be back to try the fried chicken!
