"Service was very slow, but it was quickly made up for by the delicious food. The only item ordered by my large group that was undrinkable was the bloody Mary. The farmhouse was perfect. The sourdough breed was fantastic."

"Delicious cocktails. Fantastically kind staff. Amy was amazing and talked to us about both the cocktails she designed. Both were delicious (captains drink and bourbon for apples). The captains drink was my partners favorite and my favorite was the bee s-kneez. Can’t wait to come back and try the food!"

"We came here for thanksgiving dinner as we are visiting Colorado for the holiday weekend. The layout of the restaurant is quite lovely and the lighting is dim and calming. We ordered their thanksgiving food menu and every bite was as delicious as the previous. They had an appetizer, a main, and then desert. The main included a handful of sides including Brussels sprouts and green beans. Everything was stacked high and delicious! Everything was a great experience overall however it started off a bit unexpected! We started out with salad and soup. However as I was eating the salad, I bit into a piece of ceramic in my salad; lucky I didn’t swallow it. I gave it to one of the servers asking what the heck was this. She went to grab a manager and the Manager came by and said “it was a piece of a plate, and asked me if I wanted another salad or anything else”. They took care of the whole night and the manager always kept an eye on us thru out the evening. Honestly one of the best customer service experiences at a restaurant we’ve ever been to. The whole evening was great this is a place you have to go to when you visit Denver!!! Service food and atmosphere what more could you ask for!"

"Comfortable setting, great service, excellent food. The restaurant was well staffed, even on a Wednesday evening, so service was attentive and friendly. Menu has a lot of variety, but I will say it's a pretty heavy selection of dishes - a lot of butter and cream, everything was delicious and very well prepared, but quite rich. Portions are appropriate for one person as a meal, or great to share with 2-4 people per dish. Desserts were phenomenal (citrus creme brulee, macaron ice cream sandwich) - not super sweet, a ton of flavor and nuance. Restaurant is cozy, comfortable and engaging without being noisy. Meal was actually quite reasonably priced for as well crafted as everything was. We'll be back!"
