    Johnathan was our server and he was fantastic. His personality only added to his impeccable customer service and he was super helpful making both drink and food recommendations. He definitely didn't steer us wrong because the entire dinner was great. Easily one of the best meals I've ever had, we will definitely be coming back the next time we're in Denver!

    Nothing special. I asked for little or no spices on all my dishes. Everything came out very spicy. They are trying so hard to flip tables that the kitchen is probably not paying attention to details. They took it off the bill, but it ruined our first (and only) visit.
    Guard & Grace - DenverResponded on April 14, 2025
    We are so deeply disappointed to see your experience was anything but 5 stars. We are committed to providing above and beyond guest experiences and would love the opportunity to gather more information as to where we missed the mark to rectify this. We would love to connect and make this right. Thank you and our sincerest apologies. - Tee Paddock, Guest Relations Manager

    We celebrated our anniversary and dined at Guard and Grace. I made reservations ahead and it asked if we were celebrating an occasion, I checked anniversary. When we got there the employee who seated us, greeted us Happy anniversary. Once we were seated, our server handed us an anniversary card with the employees writing sweet notes for us. I thought that was so sweet and thoughtful. It added a personal touch. And when we ordered dessert, the plate had "Happy Anniversary" written on it with chocolate chip cookies (which were so good BTW. 🤤). We enjoyed our anniversary dinner/date night. Thank you to everyone who made our day special. 💗
