   Decent food. Service was poor and it wasn't busy. I was disappointed. Nice music venue.

   Went during Restaurant Week. Food was wonderful and innovative, if a bit expensive and some items were a tiny bit too spicy. The live music was a delight. Had asked for a booth, made reservations several weeks in advance, but the couple in right front of us whom I believe did not have reservations got the only booth left. They generously accommodated us by sitting us at a table and moving us to a booth a little while later. I used to visit Baur's as a child in Denver, and this restaurant does the name proud.

   Dined pre show at The Buell. Emphasised this point several times to our server who unfortunately disappeared at crucial moments delaying food and check delivery. Also meant taking our desserts to go to eat in the interval at the show! Not ideal dining but they were very good. Participation in the Denver restaurant week seemed to curtail the menu but we managed to make that work by sharing two three course meals ($35) between four of us. Perhaps a better venue if you are rocking up for the music rather than a pre dinner show outing at DPAC.

   We will not be returning to Baur's after our experience. We made reservations for 6:00, well before our show at 7:30 and it took well over an hour to get our food. They started taking boxes out so people could box their uneaten food before their shows. We ended up getting our 2 cheeseburgers at 7:15 and had to quickly eat what we could and then run our food back to our car just to make the show. I understand why the restaurant wasn't busy on a Friday night. We typically like to be sympathetic to waitstaff and those in the service industry but this was an unacceptable experience. My burger was served cold, and was certainly not worth $15 dollars. There are hundreds of restaurants in downtown Denver, go ahead and pick another restaurant. As a side note the hostess was lovely, and made the experience slightly better.

   After several enjoyable experiences sitting at the bar, we were disappointed by our visit on Saturday. We had a reservation and sat in the bar, but the server bypassed us several times and checked on tables on both sides without even acknowledging us. Thankfully the manager noticed and came to check on us (and did so throughout the evening, and was lovely). Food was average, not great. Several bathroom fixtures were marked as out of order. Overall, it feels like Bauer's needs a little better attention to staffing, food, service and maintenance before we'd plan to return.

   The Baur's restaurant was good - had a few appetizers and a few glasses of wine before the ballet. Walking distance from Denver Center Performing arts.

   The only good thing I can say about this experience was that the food was good and had a nice presentation. The problem was that it took over an hour to get it! The server was there right when we sat down and we asked for 1 minute to look over the drink menu and we didn't see her back for about 15 minutes. We were heading to a show and I gave ourselves 1.5 hours to eat and we didn't even have enough time to enjoy our meal because by the time we got it we had to leave. I was surprised because it appeared that we were alone in the restaurant when we first walked in. I asked for our check when it was time to go and our check came out before our food. Then the screwed up my order and when they tried to fix it, the side came out burned. Really a terrible experience overall.

   The loud music was extremely annoying, otherwise my review would have been a 4-5. The type of recorded music was not appropriate for the older people who were there for dinner. For a "listening lounge" I expected a better choice of music. I would go to Baur's again because the food was good, and it is close to the DCPA.

   My braised beef entree was excellent as was the calamari we shared. But my wife wasn't happy with her salad. Egg was soft boiled and lettuce was wiltie with very little ham. Pinot Noir was good and service along with reservation request was good.

    The service was below average. At the bar when I paid with cash they did not give me back coin change...that is their policy. Completely unacceptable. When I questioned the policy the server became huffy and gave us a dollar back. I have never heard of a restaurant using this method.
