    A great first experience! Every staff member we interacted with was friendly, energetic, and knowledgeable. The food was great, and the portions were generous. Highly recommend the Crispy Brussel Sprouts - the best we've ever had! But the stars of the show are the ciders! It was hard to pick a favorite - a reason to return and try a few more! We will definitely return again next time we're in the Denver area.

    The view is amazing. Our breathe was taken away as we watched the full moon rise out of the clouds as the lights glistened off the snow covered pine trees. Words cannot express how delicious each gourmet course was. The flavors danced in your mouth. Everyone, we interacted with at the restaurant was outstanding. We went there to celebrate our anniversary. They did several little things that made our anniversary dinner a little extra special. (I don't want to spoil the surprises if you decide to celebrate here.) My husband declared after the appetizer, this is our new anniversary tradition. My only advice would be to plan on enjoying every minute. This is a four course meal which took around two hours to serve. It was such a beautiful evening, we lost track of time. I was really impressed when the valet had our car fully warmed when we walked outside. ( The temperature was 8 degrees.) It was an amazing experience.
