I’ve eaten here quite a few times and have never had a bad meal. The rib eye cap dinner is outstanding, but I departed and ordered the ribs last night. They were fall off the bone good!! Portion sizes are perfect and service is always attentive. This is one of my “go to” restaurants when I head to the Stapleton area. One area of caution. They changed their well bourbon for their Old Fashioned. It’s a terrible choice, so be sure to specify your own bourbon.

Great place for brunch. The espresso martinis were great. French toast was tasty. Limited menu which I appreciate - focus on a few things and do them well. And they covered all the bases with their choices. I was on a tight schedule to get to the airport and they hustled to keep me on schedule.
