    This was the best steak I’ve had in Denver. All of the cocktails were well mixed with no sharp bite.

    The food was delicious, especially the crab cake, and the staff was friendly and helpful. My only issue was the A/C was high and cooled off the food pretty quickly, other than that it was all pretty great. Will definitely return.

    Wow! We went to celebrate our daughter’s graduation and took a few guests with us. Dress to impress. We entered the lobby and was greeted by Yuxi and seated by Lucinda. They were absolutely delightful, friendly and courteous (as is the entire staff). Our waiter was Travis. He was extremely knowledgeable and his recommendations were spot on. He checked on us often and made the experience better than what we had expected. Eric brought out our fantastic plates and explained things very well. The food was phenomenal!! The drinks were on point! Jose was a ninja in making sure we had room on our table for more. I want to give a special shout out to Chrystal the manager. She was a ray of sunshine! She was hard at work helping her staff, running plates, and pleasantly conversing with all of us. They made the evening truly special for our daughter. We will absolutely be returning for more! Thanks to all -S

    Wow. This restaurant is a must go to. I have been to more 5 star and Michelin rated restaurants across the US. The service, food quality, wine list, cocktails and the attention to any allergies was over the top. Kudos to the entire crew.

    My 13 yo son and I were in Denver for a tourist day and based on a rec from family grabbed a late Sunday evening reservation at Guard and Grace. We ordered the crispy rice tuna app, shared the filet flight and got the duck fat fries and mushrooms as sides. Everything was amazing and made the a core memory for me and my foodie son. We ended with the sticky toffee cake which was delicious. Travis, our waiter, was kind , informative and gracious. If you can grab a reservation for a fancy dinner this is the place to go.
