Vesta Dipping GrillGood food but noisyVesta's food is consistently good. Unfortunately, the noise level does make conversation quite difficult.5/14/2013 12:00:00 AMArrived half an hour earlierArrived half an hour earlier than reservation and they didn't hesitate to give us a table.5/12/2013 12:00:00 AMExcellent and Unique to DenverMy wife and I went had our Anniversary dinner at Vesta dipping grill. The menu has good choices and the wine list certainly broad and covers all tastes. You must try the watercress pesto and pineapple bacon sauce. If you are in the mood for something different, you wont be disappointed with the venison steak and white sangria. The only downside to the restaurant is the noise level with makes it very difficult to hold a conversation or have a romantic dinner. We will definitely plan on going back.5/11/2013 12:00:00 AMUnique and YummyWe chose Vesta Dipping Grill for a special occasion on the recommendation of a friend. Food was fabulous! Something different but yet not bizarre. Will eat here again.5/11/2013 12:00:00 AMFun evening with friendsI had never been to Vesta before, but I thoroughly enjoyed it. The wine list offered nice variety and the food was delicious. Our server was attentive without being annoying. One word of caution is that it is rather expensive. Four entrees and seven cocktails came to almost $200 - that did not include an appetizer, dessert, or any other extras. Great place for a special occasion though.5/11/2013 12:00:00 AMKilled it again....I ate at VDG several years ago and had a great dinner. I took a group of 10 customers recently for dinner. Staff, service and food were all top notch. Staff was on it from the moment I arrived.5/10/2013 12:00:00 AMWonderful night. They wereWonderful night. They were able to move our reservation back a bit as we were running late. As usual the place was buzzing with activity, busy and warm atmosphere. Loved our waiter Adam, he was the best. The sommelier was fantastic. Food was great.
Spot on night, thanks.
Can't wait to do it again!5/9/2013 12:00:00 AMExcellent birthday dinnerThis place really blew us away. We had heard so many good things about it, that we had to try it. We had the pork belly small plates, which were AMAZING, then the full meat and cheese tray. The tray was so well put together, with a really beautiful truffle honey as well as a spicy cherry chutney. The meats and cheeses were excellently chosen. For the entree, we both got the beef tenderloin, and let me tell you....the demi glace was so good, I didn't even want to use the dipping sauces. However, since this place is known for dipping, I went ahead and tried them, and they surprisingly did not mask the taste of the steak, but simply enhanced it. Service was amazing (ask for Jesse if you can), and the drinks were also good.5/9/2013 12:00:00 AMVisited Denver for Dinner at VestaOn our first trip to Denver a couple of residents recommended Vesta as their favorite restaraunt. We went and had a fabulous meal. Since then, we have been itching to go back and finally made the trip to Colorado, which included dinner at Vesta. Their venison dish with the cherry sauce is one of my absolute all-time favorite restaraunt dishes. It tasted just as amazing on our second trip, two years later, as it did on our first. And the sticky toffee pudding-wonderful! You can't go wrong with any of their sauces or dishes. As someone who travels fairly often and is always on the search for amazing food, Vesta is still at the top of my list. We will always make time to eat at Vesta when we travel to Denver.5/9/2013 12:00:00 AMThis is a great restaurant,This is a great restaurant, food is unique , all plates are exceptionally good5/8/2013 12:00:00 AMI took a group from out ofI took a group from out of town to Vesta and had an enjoyable time. I really enjoy Vesta and usually rate it a 5 but this evening the food was not as good as normal. Hard to describe the reason but it just was not its normal 5 star quality. I hope it was just an off night and does not portend things to come.5/7/2013 12:00:00 AMNew and Different Dining ExperienceWe stumbled upon Vesta after a Rockies game. It was so good we returned with other friends in 2 weeks! The Concept of dipping sauces adds a different twist to the dining experience, though the food was so well prepared, no sauces were really needed. Waiters were helpful and attentive.5/5/2013 12:00:00 AMDifferent experience-in a good way!This is a fun place. We were visiting Denver for a graduation and this restaurant was a real find. Our group enjoyed sharing several appetizers and favors. The food was delicious and the service was very good. I would recommend Vesta for a different experience.5/3/2013 12:00:00 AMGreat Food and ExperienceWent to Vesta for the first time this past weekend for an anniversary dinner, and it lived up to the hype. I had heard great things about Vesta from friends, and thought it was even better than we had expected. My girlfriend and I are both gluten intolerant, and the restaurant has both a gluten free menu and a celiac menu, which was really helpful for us. Many restaurants now have a gluten free menu, but it's very limited....Vesta's was almost the entire menu, and they also served gluten free bread, which is often hard to find. The food was excellent, including the sauces, which went great with our scallop and steak entrées. The servers were very helpful, and knew the menu inside and out.5/3/2013 12:00:00 AMMy Out of town guests reallyMy Out of town guests really enjoyed the concept of the sauces, overall food was great and as always Vesta is my go to restaurant !4/23/2013 12:00:00 AMWe were celebrating my husband'sWe were celebrating my husband's birthday and we were really impressed by the concept and the food was delicious.

Great food. Sauces are suprb, as well are the main entrees. I had halibut and friend had scallops. Both were great.4/19/2013 12:00:00 AMOne of the Best in DenverI firmly believe that Vesta Dipping Grill has one of the most unique culinary experiences available in Denver. The variety and taste in the dipping sauces is definitely the hallmark of the restaurant. I highly recommend visiting this establishment.4/17/2013 12:00:00 AMThe service was simply outstanding,The service was simply outstanding, not to mention the food.

we checked in with the hostess. the wait staff at this place is the best.3/20/2013 12:00:00 AMOur first visit was for myOur first visit was for my wife's birthday, and we had a wonderful experience. Fascinating sauces are made more enjoyable precisely because the meal moves to a new flavor before any single (strong) flavor becomes overwhelming. Our waiter unfailingly responded to questions (and only when we asked!) with specific suggestions, frequently leading to new, unexpected choices in food and drink, and always with excellent results. Overall, the quality and food and service exceeds the comparatively comfortable, informal feel of the restaraut, and we look forward to going back.3/19/2013 12:00:00 AMGood but not like it used to beThe food is great. Im just sad that they changed the way they present it. I wasnt too sure about mashed potatoes in a bowl next to my steak. Also be advised, Im not sure if the kitchen knows how to cook a steak anything less than well done.3/16/2013 12:00:00 AMnewwifeOUTSTANDING!!! I was so impressed with this restaurant. As soon as we walked in, we were greeted nicely and they automatically congrad us on our anniversary. Our server was really down to earth and very descripted to meet our needs for food and drinks.
