Cascades - The Stanley HotelExcellant Food and ServiceThe food and service was so good. Beautiful presentation of the dishes and the wait staff was so gracious. Recommend making a reservation.5/12/2013 12:00:00 AMAwesome as always!We have stayed at the Stanley 4 times now since our move to Denver last July and we have eaten at and thoroughly enjoyed Cascades every time as well. Their steaks are always cooked exactly as ordered and the homemade steak sauce is out of this world. On this night we had the special, smoked scallops, shrimp, and sausage in a tomato cream sauce and it was so delicious!! Depending on the time you are there, yes it gets lively and a little loud, but that is what I imagine F.O. Stanley wanted it to be when he built this grand hotel and I'm sure it was when he and Mrs. Stanley held their parties! The staff is always warm, knowledgeable,and very gracious! They have a nice wine list, extensive whiskey and scotch selection, and inventive cocktails!5/4/2013 12:00:00 AMWonderful Place!The meatloaf, mashed potatoes & veggies made a wonderful dinner!

We had lunch late, about 2:15pm, so there was not a crowd. The service was good, and the food was good. One of our party said her steak was not cooked to her order and that it was tough, but she did not complain to the waiter, so did not give them a chance to correct her complaint. Even though I expected the prices to be expensive, I thought it was a bit pricey for what we got.4/21/2013 12:00:00 AMGreat restaurant with uniqueGreat restaurant with unique menu for dinner and breakfast. Terrific wait staff.4/12/2013 12:00:00 AMOh my!My husband and I celebrated our wedding anniversary at Cascades and it was amazing! The setting was beautiful with our own private dinning area. The food was exceptional! I ordered the meatloaf and my husband had the center cut filet they were both perfectly cooked and tasted fresh. I don't think that I have had a more enjoyable evening! In addition the staff was friendly and helpful offering great suggestions for sauce, desserts and drinks!3/31/2013 12:00:00 AMWe had a very good meal, excellentWe had a very good meal, excellent service, and a memorable experience at Cascades. I only wish that the menu had been a bit more extensive and adventuresome, but its limitations forced me to order something I have not had in at least thirty
years - meaitloaf, but wow, was it good ( made on the premises from bison, elk, and pork). And my wife gave a big thumbs up on the trout.
All in all, well worth a visit.3/31/2013 12:00:00 AMGreat for a romatic couple+Food was excellent as well as the service....and prices were within reason for the food, service, ambiance....wouldn't want to go there with a large family maybe, but excellent for the couple would wants linen on the table and wants great service and food.3/31/2013 12:00:00 AMOverall we had a very goodOverall we had a very good meal and experience at The Cascades Restaurant at the Stanley Hotel. Brigit was very friendly, attentive, and helpful with our drink and meal orders. It was somewhat noisy, the bar area was packed (probably due to March Madness), but overall very enjoyable.3/28/2013 12:00:00 AMGorgeous hotel and even betterGorgeous hotel and even better food! Except for the smokers who took a smoke break in the middle of their meal only to come back in smelling of their activity- this was a fantastic night. Also, outstanding service!3/21/2013 12:00:00 AMEverything was outstanding.Everything was outstanding.
Our wait person, Birgit, made both evenings as close to perfect as can be achieved.
This restaurant, while in the Stanley, deserves to be a destination for fine dining regardless of where someone is staying. Our two day stay in the Stanley was simply not enough time to sample all the fare we wanted to try.3/21/2013 12:00:00 AM
