    We had a rotating cast of servers, and no one really dedicated to our table. So no one seemed to care about our dining experience. The drinks were good, the food was delicious and view was amazing. But no one checked up after the food was served. Wanted to order another round of drinks but had to wait until long after we finished eating. And that was only after someone else prematurely brought our check. It felt like they really wanted to turn over our table as soon as possible. Fix the service and this place could really be great.

    Service was lack luster. No host so many people standing up front waiting while the servers are pulling double duty. No manager present for the first hour we were there to help the staff. We ended up sitting at the bar. Bartender seemed very uninterested in helping us or anyone else food was good and it’s a beautiful space. Need a lot if work on service.

    Perfect! We went to The Woods for dinner on our way back from Moab to fly out of Denver. Wanted a cool experience but we were coming back from a week of camping and didn’t want anything too fancy. This place nailed it! Great food and beer with fantastic views and excellent service. Definitely recommended!

    The food was awful, we got pizza, chicken plata, and Caesar salad. The salad had no flavor and the chicken texture and flavor was weird. The pizza tasted like a microwaveable pizza. I never paid $150 for a food that didn’t have good flavors. It was also my b day and I mentioned that on my reservation. I was hoping a dessert but he didn’t even bother to bring us a dessert menu. This was for sure 2/10 food and experience. I would never spend my money there

    The WoodsResponded on April 24, 2023Hello, I am very sorry to hear that you were not happy with your food experience at The Woods. I do hope, should you choose to visit us again, that you please introduce yourself to the manager on duty so we can ensure that you have a great experience. I will also make sure that our Executive Chef is made aware of your review, so he can reflect and learn from it. We appreciate your feedback.

    Best server, helpful, kind, Lauren was the best. Beautiful views in all directions, several items we would go back for just to have them again: the salmon tostadas were really really good, and the Scottish salmon with asparagus very tasty, and my daughter loved the Korean BBQ cauliflower, and the Frozé :-D French onion was good, not outstanding. We are definitely returning.

    Nice view, but servers were overworked. Waited a long time for drinks to be served, and for order to be taken. Food was good, but Sunday brunch menu was limited, Our favorite item, the cauliflower appetizer, wasn’t offered. The live music was great, but continuous groups trying to open the crazy door to patio, for pictures, took away from the quality entertainment!

    Our server didn’t really know much about the menu. I ordered eggs Benedict, and the eggs came out rockhard. The hollandaise sauce was very mediocre. The vibe was very bland.

    The WoodsResponded on March 28, 2023Hi Sarah, I am sorry that you had a poor experience brunching in The Woods. We strive to always create a good guest experience. When we do not provide that, we like to learn from it. If you decide to give our restaurant another chance, please ask for one of the managers (either Tyler or Zac) and we will do our best to ensure that you have a great time and your food goes out properly. Looking forward to seeing you again in the future!

    I recommend this place for drinks but the food is average, so I would eat elsewhere. However, we had fabulous service and the cocktails were tasty. It was very cold outside so the patio was not open but the view was one of the best in town. I’ll be back.
