We started off with A Split Decision and a classic cosmo, the split decision was amazing, the banana is super subtle. Then we got the meatballs, they come with 5, plenty to share and great flavor. Followed by the Tuscan pasta with steak and Nashville chicken. The pasta was delicious, but be prepared for the sandwich, it's HOT. The manager treated us to a delicious, insane butter cake....an absolute must and trust the beverage they pair with their desserts, incredible dessert all around! All in all, highly recommend, and would suggest trying to get a seat on the patio, great vibes.

This evening for my wife's birthday we went to The Brinkerhoff. Having never been, we were not sure…read moreexactly what to expect. Well, after dinner we have vowed to return. I'll break it down through all phases of our experience. First will be making reservation. Called early this afternoon for a reservation this evening. Promptly greeted on the phone by a very kind lady. Within a quick minute was able to reserve our dinner with much ease Now with the location and ambiance. Very easy to find, and well positioned with a perfect sunset view of the mountains. Well lit environment but yet still very intimate. Next will be greeting, hospitality, and staff service. Within 10 seconds of walking we were greeted as if we were the most important people to visit this evening. That means that we felt very welcomed upon our arrival. The hospitality did not stop there. We were seated and greeted by Marquez. Now this guy was the star of the evening. He knew the menu and wine pairings in great detail. His recommendations of menu items were outstanding. Seriously, you can tell when somebody takes pride in their work. This gentleman carries himself with great pride and genuine care. That level of self respect is reflective in the respect he shows others. Through him alone he can s 10 out of 10 easily. Now, why we all came. For the food. We ordered the pimento dip for an app. The bread was outstanding. The pimento dip was rich and full of flavor. Home run was the warm honey. Never would have thought of the combination of pimento dip and honey spread across toasted bread. YUM! For the main meal I had ordered the French Dip and the wife ordered the salmon. For the French Dip the star was the freshly made French bread. It was perfect for the large amount of thinly sliced prime rib. Speaking of the meat, the Prime Rib was so tender it nearly will melt in your mouth. The Salmon looked to be perfectly cooked. My wife gave that affirmation after her first bite. Then came the dessert. Ice Cream came with hot fudge both delicious. Key Lime pie was also perfect. It came with a really neat French Whipped Cream infused with key lime. AMAZING flavor and light. Overall, excellent experience, delicious meal, and Marquez was fantastic. If you find yourself looking for somewhere to have a celebratory dinner, recommend this place. Thank you so much to all at The Brinkerhoff for a wonderful evening.

Definitely a solid Mexican food spot that I've frequented many times as a Castle Rock resident…read more They offer friendly service, great green chile and unique menu items--like the mini chile rellenos--which are genuinely tasty and well done every time. The biggest downside for me is the pricing. Everything on the menu feels noticeably overpriced, especially considering there are several nearby Mexican food options within walking distance that offer better flavor and larger portions for less. While the restaurant is upscale and visually impressive, the customer shouldn't feel like they're subsidizing the cost of expensive real estate during their visit.

Every recommendation came with passion, personal testimony, and what I'm pretty sure was a sworn oath that our lives were about to change. "Trust me." "No -- TRUST me." "You're gonna thank me later." Reader, I did thank him later. Every dish he pointed at was absolute fire. Not a single miss. It was like having a culinary tour guide who had eaten the entire menu twice and survived to tell the tale. Food was incredible, vibes were great, and Eli deserves either a raise, a podcast, or his own Food Network show. Come hungry. Leave full. Tip Eli like he personally cooked your meal (because emotionally, he did)

This is my second time eating dinner at Cuba Cuba and I just love this little spot. Anytime I visit…read moreColorado I have to visit this restaurant. We were a party of three adults and one toddler. Arrived around 5:30 p.m. on Monday and was greeted and sat immediately. Our server was super friendly even though she was one of the only servers and had many tables to tend to. The food is close to authentic Cuban. I love the plantain chips and dip and I always get the picadillo. This was our first time getting the flan and my goodness it was delicious. You have to have a cortado as well. Sometimes they have live music and when the weather is nice it is always a good idea to sit outside. Maybe I will try another dish aside from piccadillo next time but that's a big maybe. ;)

They absolutely loved being able to order milkshakes with their kids' meals which is a fun touch and definitely a highlight for them. The burgers are a great size and packed with flavor.

Service was friendly and everything came out pretty quickly, which is always a win when dining with kids. We'd definitely come back again

First time here. Came on a Friday for lunch. The parking lot is large, so no problem finding a…read morespot. We were welcomed in and seated. I was distracted by the person behind glass making the wonderful fresh tortillas. As homebrewers, my husband and I were interested in what their brew set up looked like. It was behind glass and visible from where we were seated. Always neat to see how a brewery is set up, no two are the same. Dulce took care of us. We started with chips and salsa. The chips were warm and the salsa was fresh with a nice kick. He got a taco plate with ground beef tacos, rice and beans. He paired that with the LDP IPA. He enjoyed his meal. I love Chile Rellenos, so that is what I chose for my lunch. It came smothered with their green chili and with some of those wonderful warm tortillas on the side. I paired mine with their Aqua Fresca, a slightly altered base of their Mexican Lager with the addition of Prickly Pear purée and Key Lime. It was refreshing and tasted like summer. I had half of my lunch to bring home with me. The view from where we sat was beautiful. I would come back.

My friend asked for one special modification for her drink, "salt on the rim" and that wasn't followed. Food took forever. And in the molcajete had a giant blob of cheese that previously was at the bottom, easily making it easy to eat the meat. Instead it was like fishing the meat out from the stranger things world of cheese. $69 for terrible service and not even an alcoholic beverage. I will be asking for a refund tomorrow. Do not recommend.

We started by splitting a side Caesar salad, which was very flavorful and good. None of us were impressed with our chicken. Thinner than it has been in the past, it was also overcooked and quite dry. The side of vegetables are fantastic, and the mashed potatoes were enjoyed as well. They've now included a scoop of Cole slaw with the chicken, which was also very good. Service started off slow, but was ok, although we did have to ask for drink refills after our glasses sat empty for a long time. I'm sure we'll give them another shot at some point to see if the chicken improves.

Cozy atmosphere, great food, loving service, and perfect volume level for a sport bar. The menu is adventurous for a sports bar and provides options other than just the regular old "burger and fries." The owner and the manager will recognize you everytime that you come back and it feels like a private club, more than a public restaurant. For the win: Start with the Soft Pretzels with ale cheese dip and ale mustard, next either the Western Burger with a side of coleslaw and fries, or The Reuben. Finally, wash it all down with Crank Yanker IPA or one of the many Mule choices. "Honey, where are you going?" "To the library!"
