    First time at this restaurant in Denver; visiting the area for a meeting and happy we chose this restaurant. Very nice atmosphere, service was excellent; the food was delicious. I had a Japanese take on an Old Fashioned which was delicious; tried the tuna sushi; tried the oysters and the Chilean sea bass; amazing experience would highly recommend.

    Lovely place- great server. Food overpriced - looks good on the menu but missing something in delivery… too much butter, too spicy, overcooked… just missed the mark -

    Customer service is the best I’ve seen in a while. My first steak came out too charred for me but they made sure to make it right in a timely manner. Thank you

    Water Grill was excellent. Great service, great drinks, and lots of food to choose from (it was hard to choose only a few dishes). I would recommend taking out of town guests and we will definitely visit again!

    Everything was delicious, from appetizers to cocktails to oysters to dessert and everything in between. The waiter was prompt and respectful to our timeline, but the cocktails took a long time for what seemed to be an only moderately busy day
