I will definitely recommend this place! The only downside was that the dining room was very warm and a little uncomfortable, especially considering it is only March.

Really fun night! We were seated near the bar and our servers were super friendly and helpful. Really good food and spot! Definitely will be back. read more Really fun night!

The wine selection, burrata, and new pork loin tapas were solid. The burnt paella also came with a $10 per person small scallop upcharge (we heard $10 for added scallops), ultimately a letdown for what we anticipated would be the star of our dinner. The RRs were not well tended to either. Go for the view, drinks, and a few tapas, and skip the upsell items.

The food at this restaurant is amazing. The service is excellent and the views are breathtaking. Definitely a hidden gem in Denver. read more The food at this restaurant is amazing. The service is excellent and the views are breathtaking. Definitely a hidden gem in Denver.

I have food allergies and they were excellent at working around them without allowing the flavor to suffer. From wait staff to the kitchen: two big thumbs up.
