    Went to Yard bird for Valentine’s Day. Started with the Deviled eggs, they had two kinds so got both. These deviled eggs were mind blowing good. I had a dream about this meal that night it was that good. We ordered the Shrimp and Grits, short ribs, Brussels sprouts and mashed potatoes. They might have been the best ribs I’ve ever had in my life. I’ve tried places all over Denver and would consider myself a good judge of food. This is hands down the best food I’ve ever had in Denver and that’s saying a lot. All the food was so good I’m leaving a review and I never leave reviews. It’s pricey but absolutely worth it. You could easily spend more money in Denver and not get this quality. Thank you yardbird for making my evening.

    We love going to Culinary Dropouts and always feel special when we go. We had Hannah, one of our favorite servers. She is on top of everything and does her job with poise and grace. The hostesses always greet us as though we are movie stars. We love everything about this restaurant. That is why we go two to three times a week! Yay, we love Culiary Dropouts.

    Lovely time, as always! The menu has changed a bit (for the better, we think!) over the last few years. The seasonal changes are always interesting. Lots of options for everyone and just a really chill vibe. We had the pleasure of being served by Carla who was so sweet (our friend was chilly from a wintery trek from his car, so she brought him a hot water to wrap his hands around) - so thoughtful! We had a lovely time and will be back.

    I had a delightful business lunch at Local Jones. The greek salad is highly recommended. Our server paid attention to our table well, even if he was a bit awkward about things like interrupting our conversation.
