Hostess was very friendly and helpful. Went for leisurely lunch; felt a bit rushed by waiter. Food was good; wine sauce was terrible - too sweet. All-in-all we will grub hub burgers in the future rather than make the trip to downtown.

My server for the evening, Al, did another outstanding job, as usual. She was attentive and professional, and made sure my order was exactly perfect. What a nice place to have dinner and drinks before attending live entertainment at Denver Center for the Performing Arts.

We had a 7pm reservation, but it was so busy we didn't get seated until 715. The front was a little loud, but our seat near the back was great although it was quite warm. Our server was new so it was hard to get a lot of input but she was nice. We had the top tasting and it was very good. Lots of snacks, not a cheap night ending at $300.
