    Such a cute spot! I was excited to try it because my friend loves it and says the burger is one of the best ever. I'll be back for the burger but we tried the mini crab & lobster roll with fries and a strawberry dessert. Great service for our visit, it was a bit late for lunch and early for dinner, perfect for our happy hour.

    After a great sports weekend and a big Broncos win we wanted to go big or go home! A5 has a fantastic drink menu and a super simple food menu as well. While there's some great seafood choices, we're here for the elite cuts of meat. We shared the 30 oz bone-in NY strip and the Mac and Cheese coquettes, and it was perfect med-rare and a great portion to share. The drinks were also great I especially enjoyed the "Threes Company" and the egg white shiso foam was so fun. We sat at the bar and had great service and a lot of fun with the bartenders and the other patrons it was a blast. Definitely a bit expensive for certain cuts of meat but for the relaxed but still high-end vibe of this place, I would definitely recommend if you want a top of the line steak dinner without having to dress to the nines and wait all night. Also get the oysters mix it's phenomenal!

    Yes they do have a great tasting waygu burger. The cocktails on Tao are great. I loved the old fashion. Happy Hour is a great deal for sure. Friendly staff and cool vibe atmosphere

    What we liked: The steaks were great. I thoroughly enjoyed the Denver (first time eating that cut). I was weary that it would be tough but our server assured me that it was very tender. The mashed potatoes with chives were simple and perfect mashed potatoes imo. The fries we ordered as an appetizer were great. The béarnaise wasn't traditional but it was really enjoyable. What was just okay: The $20 cocktails we got were fine, nothing spectacular and they didn't stand out in any way. My martini wasn't cold enough. The cheapest glass of wine is $16, which is exorbitant. We ended up spending $38 on two glasses of wine. Yikes. The broccolini and mac and cheese croquettes were fine, but not noteworthy. What we didn't like: We went with reservations at 6pm on a Wednesday and the restaurant was about 1/2 full. We were seated at a table directly next to the partition for the restrooms. I could smell the generic bathroom cleaner. I asked if we could be moved over to another table, and our request was accommodated, but we shouldn't have been seated at the worst table in the first place. The bathroom table remained empty for the two hours that we were there. The automatic "service charge" is fine but it explicitly says "it is not a tip or gratuity" which to me sounds like they want you to tip on top of the service charge. We were confused by the wording and I left an additional $10 which in hindsight I shouldn't have. The price point is too high for the food/ambiance/service. I know everywhere in Denver is expensive now, but a $350 dinner for two is exorbitant. Speaking of price point- they didn't even have nice soap in the bathrooms, it was the "pink soap" that you find at rest stops and gas stations. It's all in the details. We won't be returning which is a shame because the steaks were great, but spending that much can't be justified.

    Just wow! I am always proud to dine here and also bring my family and friends here when they are in town. The hospitality, service, and food has always been top notch. Not once have I ever left dissatisfied. I always look forward to coming back and knowing that everything on the menu from the burger, to the fries, oysters, steaks and sauces, it will all always be beyond extraordinary. Special thank you to Andrea, our server, and to Sarah and Nick, our hosts.

    I would give this a 4.5 if I could! Our food was good, but the steak wasn't the best steak I've had in Denver, especially for the price. We still enjoyed our meal & loved the wait staff. The vibe was really lovely with lots of plants.

    chilled oysters & HH dirty gin martini

    In town and staying downtown, we were looking for a lively bar with great food and drinks before catching an Avalanche game, and A5 absolutely delivered. We came during happy hour (3:30-5:30 pm) and grabbed seats at the bar, which was buzzing in the best way. The drink deals alone are worth it: $10 Negronis, martinis, margaritas, and daiquiris (regularly $18+). Solid pours, well balanced, no shortcuts. We ordered the chef's choice oysters, fresh and perfectly chilled. Simple, clean, and done right. We also tried the wagyu yakitori from the happy hour menu. Dinner service starts at 5 pm, and they do offer full sit down dining service if you prefer a table experience. Shoutout to Brittany, our bartender. Friendly, efficient, and kept the energy up even while the bar was packed. Fun ambiance, busy but not chaotic, and a great pre game vibe. Would absolutely come back, game night or not. Next time I'll opt for dinner service. A 20% automatic gratuity is added to the check, and no complaints here. The service was excellent.

    No notes, the food was incredible and the service was even better. For appetisers, the oysters were amazing, the poutine was very unique, and the kimchi fried rice was delicious. The menu had unique items and Korean influence, so this is not your typical steakhouse. For dessert, the sesame tart was a 10/10 for me, I would come back just to get this! Joe was an amazing server and gave us great recommendations!

    Mac and cheese croquettes
    Fred N.

    This places fills up quick so get a reservation in place. We went here on a Thursday night and its a cozy restaurant with a second floor. We ordered several dishes with anticipation to take some home and finish off our entrees. The house salad with the poutine as our starters. House salad had a good mix of crunch with the dressing and I would highly recommend the poutine. Crispy fries, tender pot roast, and very flavorful curry that has a kick with the red pepper...too good. For the sides, we got cabbage and the mac n cheese and both were good. For my main entree, Picanha steak with chimichurri sauce. The cut was to order and was delicious/tender. Overall...would definitely recommend anyone going here for a nice evening dinner.

    Was visiting Denver as a party of 6 and decided to make reservations here for our brother in law's 50th birthday at 6:30 pm on a Monday. This was a recommended place online so that's how we chose this place and boy were we glad we did. Place was casual which was great because we hate dressing up. Atmosphere was great and my 11 year old niece said this place was a vibe. Iforgot to take a picture of the seafood tower. We ordered the small one which was perfect because only half of our table could eat seafood. It came with oysters, lobster, shrimp cocktail and ceviche. This is a steakhouse so we all had to order a steak. I loved that they sliced them and cooked them so deliciously. The sides were amazing we cleaned up all the plates. Cocktails were all good. Thanks for the great attention to our brother in law for his bday and our family. Service was top notch.

    My mouth is watering just thinking about the meal I had at A5! My friend and I have been bopping around steakhouses in Denver, finally getting around to trying this one in LoDo. We were seated upstairs (the hallway is kinda narrow and wall lights are bright) overlooking the main floor of the restaurant. It felt so fancy! I had the Denver Steak (medium rare) with a Dirty Martini. We started with Oysters Motoyaki and Mac & Cheese Croquettes. The tomato jam for the croquettes is to die for. Everything we got was phenomenal, including the sherbet. Would definitely prioritize coming here again, even if it's just for their Happy Hour!

    Tomas R.

    This was definitely a splurge of a dinner when I came here with a group of friends for a celebratory dinner. Upon arrival we were directed to the bar to grab a drink as our large party table wasn't just quite ready. No issues for us since we instead asked if we could enjoy oysters alongside our cocktails. That was going to be part of our meal anyways so why not make the most of it? Once we were directed to our table near the large windows, that's when the dining experience began. From Japanese milk buns to bone marrow topped steak, it was flavorful but expect to spend a pretty penny if you want to explore the menu. I enjoyed their wine selection and they had something for any price range of preference. It's a cute environment and the staff was super friendly. I have to say they also had a heavy pour on the drinks so that was a plus.

    What a great spot omgoodness. Brent was an awesome server and Dolce had us laughing and enhanced the meal every step of the way. Thank you both!!! Finally had the chance to go and we were not disappointed. . The pork belly appetizer was delicious. The squash and Sea Bass were perfect in every way and so flavorful. I have never had a Tomahawk Steak and there was so much flavor to it. Perfectly cooked and so tender. Yummmmmm This is a restaurant I look forward to our return. There were so many other things we must try!!! #delicious, @a5steakhouse, #A5steakhouse, #BlackbirdFLY

While their standard menu doesn't feature an overwhelming number of pre set vegan combinations, the build your own bowl option opened up a world of delicious possibilities. I ordered a custom bowl featuring a base of soft, perfectly cooked golden quinoa, layered with sweet potatoes, corn salsa, pickled onions, avocado, roasted tofu, a warm portobello mushroom mix, and a generous drizzle of spicy cashew dressing. Every single element hit the mark: the tofu and mushrooms were cooked to absolute perfection, the corn salsa added a vibrant punch of flavor, and the golden quinoa provided a wonderfully comforting base. However, the true star of the meal was undoubtedly the spicy cashew dressing. It struck an ideal balance of sweet and spicy without ever becoming overly aggressive or overbearing in the bowl. Beyond the food, the restaurant itself made for a great dining environment, having a clean interior with plenty of seating options.

I tried the KBBQ, and the flavor of the sauce and chicken was good, but I was expecting there to be some greens in there. And it was kinda a little too saucy, and it didn't feel like it was wrapped tight enough. I think wraps are good additions to the menu, but keep workshopping it!

Well, before 6:00 at night, they had run out of the rustic loaf bread that both of our sandwiches (the Ridgeline and the Fourteener) were supposed to come on. In fact, due to a lunch rush, they had run out of the rolls several hours earlier. I guess they don't make more bread if they run out...maybe they don't make their own bread at all, but it was disappointing for a sandwich shop to run out of bread. Shouldn't that be a staple for a sandwich shop? We ended up having to just go with regular bread. I had wheat, while my daughter had sourdough. Again, don't get me wrong...both sandwiches were fine, but paying $14 for a sandwich on two slices of bread just doesn't seem worth it to me. Adding in chips and drinks (from a fountain machine where the Coke Zero exploded on you, and the Diet Coke seemed flat) for $40 wasn't a great deal.

It's very hustling and bustling inside with several dining rooms. We were sadly seated in the dungeon space next to the kitchen. We started with the seasonal (I think), squash blossoms. They come 3 to one order and honestly, they were lackluster. It could have stood for more filling. Nothing was particularly special about this starter even though they're apparently quite popular. The best thing we tasted was the pasta al forno which is the seasonal pasta. It came in the form of a lasagna and it was delish. It gave lasagna, but the layers were much more delicate and intentional. Per our waiter's recommendation, we ordered the Maiale pork chop ($42). It came with green tomato, mostarda, and smoked ricotta. It honestly gave me the ick because the pork chop was cooked to a medium. This made the pork more malleable in texture which added to my ick.The flavors weren't flavoring and it was a disappointment because this was our main course. Not blatantly bad, but not to my liking. Service is supposed to be exceptional at Tavernetta, but I found it to be fine. Our waiter, unfortunately, smelled like mildew. It dampened our dining experience a little bit. He was otherwise very kind, but mildew smells are unforgiving.
