One of the best dinners of my entire life! The service was outstanding - Courtney was so quick, knowledgeable, on top of everything, and seemed to make a connection with every table effortlessly. The food was literally to die for, especially the ube brûlée which I will dream about until I get to have it again. We went for restaurant week but will be going back again and again for special occasions!

The waitress was very knowledgeable on the menu and the drinks. She helped explain the different drinks to help me pick one and it was a great pick. We ordered the miso salmon and the flank steak they both were very delicious. Would go back again!

Went here during Denver Restaurant Week and ordered off the RW menu. The food was delicious! New take on traditional Calamari - absolutely excellent! Our server let us know that they had a 16-Top table dining that evening and as a result our food may be slightly delayed out of the kitchen, but there was honestly no noticeable wait for food; they were very attentive. The cocktails were superb as well.
