We had drinks, appetizers, entrees, and desserts. Everything was well-prepared and flavorful. They have a varied menu, so it can satisfy many different tastes. They have several vegetarian and gluten free options too and the menu is well-marked for these. The server was very friendly and helpful and even gave suggestions. Don't even think of going without dessert here! They are amazing - apple donuts, flourless chocolate torte, bread pudding! It was a bit noisy in the large room to the north but seemed a bit quieter in the main, smaller tabled area. All around a wonderful experience!

The old menu was better and a go-to. This new menu incorporates a lot of seafood. That’s a risk in Colorado…one my husband likes to take. This time it didn’t pay off. The shrimp left him feeling ill all night.
