There's an excellent beer selection with all different types which we had to take advantage of.

The beer is brewed downstairs, and upstairs has plenty of table seating as well as lots of bar seats. We will absolutely be back to try more of the menu, and check out the food next time!

Well, it's not a bad thing adding new businesses and that is a part of keeping Yelp "in the loop" for what's out there for us consumers to partake. Irwin Brewing Steve and I had a couple of different of beers from. One was a Mexican Lager and another was an Amber. To be honest the Mexican Lager could have been better. It wasn't very memorable nor did it have an infectious flavor that a really good Mexican Lager can have. The bready flavor and if a brewmaster so chooses some tequila in brew via barrels or otherwise can crank out a real mean Mexican Lager. Irwin's tasted flat and just not all that great. If that was all I would have had from Irwin I would have given three stars but then we also tried and enjoyed fairly well an amber lager, Amber's Lager as it is called was a notch up with a nice malty, clean and crisp flavor profile. So that increased the favorability with the brewery's beers a bit more. There are other beer options that may be worthy of exploring here but the amber is one that I fine well worth returning to.

Whoever is working in the kitchen is BRINGING IT. The first time I visited it was for lunch & I was blown away. I got the trout dip and since I do GF I just ask for more cucumber slices. This is not your average dip, it's fancy. They put smoked trout roe on top!! It's so good sometimes I just get that as my entree. I also got the seasonal salad & it was so beautiful I can't believe I didn't take a pic. There were multiple colored roasted beets, snap peas, leafy greens... it was a rainbow of color & delicious. I was just there for dinner twice in the past 2 weeks. Once I had the prime rib. The potatoes that come with the prime rib are to die for! The second time I tried the shrimp & grits, it was good, not my favorite but I have to say I really like the variety on the menu. Drinks are pretty fantastic too.

It was very distracting and why I can't give 5 stars. Service was great - our server was attentive and all employees shared in clearing plates which I always like to see. Nothing really stood out to me as far as decor goes - if there was anything cool it was overshadowed by the tvs. For drinks, my husband had an old fashioned which was good but not out of the park. I had their mocktail of the moment which was a yuzu Moscow mule. It was delicious and I'd highly recommend. On the food front, Hideout did a grand job. We started with their special loaded kimchi waffle fries. Epic! I love kimchi and everything about this dish was perfect. For entrees, my husband had their Thai Me Up Burger with shoestring fries and was very pleased with it. Cooked as requested and fun flavors. I had their Fried Chicken Sandwich with kimchi pasta salad and while I only ate half due to being filled from waffle fries, it was very tasty. On the whole, I enjoyed the food and drink at The Hideout, but not sure I would return for the atmosphere or recommend for large groups who want to hang out sans distractions. Zero Proof Review: I'm on a quest to check out all the zero proof, mocktail and n/a beverages that Denver and beyond has to offer. The Hideout did not have a very robust selection so I would love to see them expand that, but their seasonal mocktail was one of the best I've had, so kudos for creativity and craft!

However, the other night we had a really lovely meal and were luckily seated downstairs, which was very prettily decorated and noise levels not too high. Best thing we had was the whipped ricotta with herbs, fresh and dried apples and, of course, bread. The sage and thyme combo with fruit and light fresh ricotta was so good. So good I forgot to take a photo until we'd wiped the plate clean. Meatballs were also very tasty w a very nice tomato sauce. The burrata served w radishes, beets, citrus and arugula was delicious. The gruyere daily bread was tasty and their honey butter is so good! We over-ate bread, but hey, every course came w bread and it is so good and it is called The Breadery!

We had an important family event and chose this restaurant as our family dinner to celebrate. I mentioned in our reservation that this event was a special occasion and we were sat at a beautiful, intimate table with complementary shots at the end of dinner as a congratulations - We were very grateful for this hospitality. We were disappointed due to the quality of service and food. We felt we hardly saw our server and did not get refills/ service as we had hoped and spent a lot of time waiting. It was a Friday night, however we had a later reservation and the restaurant was not as busy by that time... When our meal came out, it was delivered to our table by another employee and when we said "thank you!" feeling excited to try our food, the person did not make eye contact or even acknowledge anyone at the table...? For dinner we were recommended the ribs and were extremely disappointed. They were so dry and tough and did not end up getting eaten. The chicken was phenomenal but felt that the rest of the sides were subpar. At a minimum of $50 a person, we expected excellent service and food...
