We also have a full cocktail bar and carefully curated an extensive selection of wines that is approachable and newcomers and connoisseurs alike.

We are located adjacent to Union Station on the corner of 15th & Wynkoop. Our focus is on consistently good food without the frills and fuss of haute cuisine but delivering on 5-star service.

Pretty good new restaurant. Service was great. Autumn Burrata salad was fantastic, so flavorful. The Scotch Olives were just okay, too much breading. Steak was good

The appetizers were unique and delicious. The ambiance is top tier and the vibes are spot on. The steak was the one thing that didn’t live up. It wasn’t the best cut and an uneven cook. The manager spotted this and comped the whole meal. I never asked for a comp of any kind. That tells you how high of a standard they hold themselves too. Will definitely be back.

We had a wonderful company holiday dinner. The service was outstanding. The menu had a lot of variety for everyone and came out quickly and high quality. The steaks and sides were perfect portions. I will definitely return.

Excellent service and food. The ribeye was delish and the sides were ample enough for four people to share.

Everything was really great about this experience. It was our anniversary and it was clear the staff was aware of this & they gave us complimentary champagne as well! The drinks were great & so was the food, especially the steak with chimichurri!! The only reason I removed a star was because we ordered the une creme brûlée for dessert and while it was good, the sugar was *very* burnt and made it pretty bitter.

We totally appreciated the great gluten free options and the wine variety. We had the meatball & bruschetta appetizers with Prosecco and sparkling rose then shared shrimp and grits with a red wine flight. Dessert was Ube crème brûlée with pistachio. Waiter was super helpful and sommelier was very friendly. We’ll be back!
