Tables - Denver

Last meal at Tables, so sad. So many great memories here. You will be missed! Thanks for choosing Park Hill as your home throughout the years.

In what was once a storefront with angle parking out front. Eclectically decorated with old doors, mismatched furniture, a barn door. Menu, which changes seasonally, has about 8 entrees with considerable variety (fish, seafood, beef, pork, lamb, chicken) and about 8 or 10 starters, also with wide variety. Entrees mostly in mid $30's, starters around $10 $12, glass of wine about $15. Wine list seems pretty good, but I am not a fine wine expert. Our server don't remember his name was terrific. Between us we had sweetbreads, halibut, scallops, lamb loin, and Romaine leaf. All excellent. Sorry to hear another reviewer had a bad experience with an unruly patron we found the place to be quiet and friendly.

We took a quick drive from our hotel in Denver to this restaurant and it was definitely worth it. The service was friendly and exceptional, and all of the appetizers and entrees were delicious and high-quality. The staff was flexible with customizing dishes as well.

I have supported this neighborhood restaurant for years. Last night at Tables for dinner with friends, I tried to talk with the owner Amy about an incident that happened in January. Three friends and I had just finished eating in their outdoor tent and a group of four men came in and sat behind us and were extremely boisterous and appeared to be drunk. They began ordering more alcohol and were so loud that our table and the one next to us couldn 't hear ourselves talk. I so very nicely asked the fellow behind my chair, Would you mind keeping it down a bit, we can 't hear ourselves talk. He then screamed at me, You whore, tone it down yourself! My friend then said to him, Don 't call my friend names and he said, Shut-up your B At that point our waitress was shaking and said, Let me get the manager. The maybe 25 year-old female manager came in and both our table and the other table bothered asked that these men be asked to leave because of their drunken behavior. She was clearly over her head and didn 't know how to handle it. I asked to see the owner and she said, They are in Hawaii. The Manager then asked if the rowdy table would like to be relocated inside the restaurant, and they gladly agreed, much to all of our chagrin. As I mentioned all this to Amy last night she was extremely defensive which shocked me. I said I felt her manager needed better training about handling difficult patrons and she said, I think it was handled perfectly. I then mentioned the liability in continuing to serve alcohol to drunk, disorderly patrons and she shrugged and said, I 'm too busy to talk with you and will come and find you later which never happened. I will not be returning to a restaurant where rudeness and incivility is tolerated and condoned. They offered to comp our dessert, which we didn 't have and later at the urging of the other nice table, they comped our dinner, which we didn 't want them to do...we wanted the immature, outrageous patrons asked to leave.

My husband I adore this restaurant. I used to come here many years ago when I lived in Park Hill and we make sure to have dinner here whenever we are in town. We were just there last night, and were delighted as always. Our server was amazing, the food was top notch, and we can't wait to have dinner here next time we are in town.
