Best Casual Restaurants in Washington Park

Excellent lunch with my niece. Akiko was our server, she was wonderful and efficient. Nico helped clear our plates and is such a charming gentleman. Every bite was delicious. Burrata, little gems Caesar & bolognese. Absolutely amazing. Thank you.

Salt Water Social has made its way to Cherry Creek, and it was an absolute hit. The team working there are well trained and the customer service was top tier! From beginning to end, our group of 6 enjoyed everything they had to offer. Christopher was our server, and he was beyond helpful with drink recommendations, and explaining the dishes we had. Couldn’t have asked for a better server. The drinks are well crafted, and smooth. Nothing too sweet, and well balanced. The Dirty Pearls martini with caviar bump was a favorite for me. I loved the rosé bubbles recommendation as well. The food was well prepared, and I can honestly say that if I had to pick a least favorite, it would be hard. Everything was so well made, even down to the sourdough loaf to start with. We enjoyed oysters, spicy yellowtail on crispy rice, caviar pizza, crab cake, Maine lobster roll, ciopinno, ribeye filet, crab fried rice, mushroom pot pie, truffle and mushroom pasta, lava cake, and bananas foster. Phenomenal. Be sure to stop into Salt Water Social, and enjoy a fabulous meal!

A fabulous experience in every way! My husband and I (big foodies) went the night after Christmas for dinner with my in-laws and the food and service were excellent. We ordered the crispy rice with spicy tuna, french onion soup and two salads to start which were all delicious. Same for our entrees: the black cod, 16oz ribeye, pork chop and 4 oz sirloin with the truffle gnocchi, brussel sprouts and carrots on the side. Our server and the chef were very accommodating to my MIL's strict restrictions / modifications. If you can request a server, ask for Jonathan. Since pre-covid, service at restaurants has been fairly disappointing, but not here. Jonathan was by far the best server we've had anywhere in a very long time. Looking forward to returning on our next trip to see our parents.

Amazing experience! Started with the prosciutto, a pinot grigio, and had the tagliatelle, followed by the torta. It was all so wonderful! HIGHLY recommend the tagliatelle!! I sat at the bar, where Caesar waited on me, and he was exceptional. Highly attentive but not over-bearing; he was personable and friendly. I loved the ambiance as well. It should also be said, Caesar went above and beyond, and is an expert in his craft! Make a reservation, and you will not be disappointed.

This was our first time to Jack’s after a recommendation from a friend. The food and service were both excellent! Highly recommended to anyone looking for an amazing and experience.
