I came here with a few co-workers during a week night and we had made a reservation in advance. It was bustling when we got there. We were seated by the hostess who got waters for us and then had a very friendly waitress. She was very attentive as well. We started with the dip duo and grilled artichokes. The chips that came with the dips were great and dips super flavorful and very different so it was nice to have the contrast. The artichokes were grilled deliciously. I loved the charred taste. I ordered the salmon dish. I really enjoyed the salmon and my broccoli. The mashed potatoes were not my things. Lots of leeks/onions in it. We did get a side of fries instead and those were great - they tasted just like McDonald's! I can see why this restaurant is popular. Good food and great service! read more

Cherry Creek Grill - Salmon - New American Near Me - Denver, Colorado

This may be the most spectacular collection of self-inflicted hospitality wounds I have ever seen at a restaurant. We had six people, including family visiting from Europe and Asia who, understandably, wanted to sit together. There was a booth where all six of us could comfortably fit. Cherry Creek Grill nevertheless refused to seat more than five people at a table because, we were told, food and service quality would suffer. That is a fairly astonishing admission of incompetence. Somehow every taqueria, neighborhood restaurant, and Michelin-starred dining room has figured out how to serve tables of six, eight, or ten people. Cherry Creek Grill is apparently drawing the line at five and telling you it is because the restaurant cannot maintain its standards beyond that. The solution to that problem, other than just gaining the competence to serve six people, would be to let us decide whether we are willing to accept lower food and service quality in exchange for sitting together. Instead, we got to discover the rule after arriving and were split up. But fine. They have planted the flag. Five is the number at which Cherry Creek Grill can provide the quality of service it is so concerned about protecting. Except it couldn't. Sandwiches came out at different times and different temperatures, none particularly hot. The fries were definitely not freshly made. One French dip came without the requested horseradish despite the request having been specifically confirmed. A couple at the table asked to split something and, rather than split-plate it, the restaurant just brought the sandwich as-is. None of these is some catastrophic service failure by itself. Collectively, they are pretty funny from a restaurant that had just separated our family in the name of preserving service quality. Then there are the rules. We were told they bring one individual serving of dipping sauce per table, apparently regardless of how many orders of fries are being shared at that table. I still do not understand why this needed to be a policy. They also apparently keep an artichoke dish on the menu year-round despite frequently not having it available. And Cherry Creek Grill has a dress code banning things like hats and team jerseys, which feels bizarrely out of step with both Denver and what the restaurant actually is. This is lunch in a Cherry Creek shopping district at a restaurant serving burgers, sandwiches, fries, and rotisserie chicken. Plenty of substantially more ambitious restaurants in this city somehow survive the occasional baseball cap. My Kölsch was also poured incorrectly, which is minor, but by this point felt almost on theme. The food itself was mostly just meh. My rotisserie lamb sandwich is separately called out on the menu as a limited item and was in no meaningful way special. The French dip was properly made. Nothing was awful, but nothing about the meal came close to justifying the amount of pretension surrounding it. I want to be clear that our waitress was pleasant, and I do not blame her for any of this. In fact, she gave us the funniest moment of the meal. We joked that the next time our overseas family was all together there would probably be a new baby and asked whether the baby would count toward the five-person limit. She deadpanned, apparently not getting that we were stating what we assumed to be an absurd joke, that yes, the baby would count. So Cherry Creek Grill at least gave our family a new inside joke. Hospitality should generally be about making it easier for people to enjoy a meal together. Cherry Creek Grill seems to have built an impressive number of rules around doing the opposite, while simultaneously failing to deliver the food and service quality those rules are supposedly protecting. *Additional note my wife reminded me of, we regularly ate here with 6 or more people at a single table in the past when it was much better. read more

‼ DON'T EVER ORDER FOOD TO GO FROM HERE!!! ‼ I honestly cannot believe a restaurant at this price point thinks this is acceptable. I spent over $50 on a to go order and it came with no napkins, no salad dressing, and no utensils. When I politely asked for a plastic fork because I was staying at a hotel, the employee, Sherry, repeatedly told me, "We don't provide that," and then kept saying, "I don't know what to tell you," instead of offering any kind of solution. The dismissive attitude was honestly worse than the missing items. Then I got back to my hotel and realized Sherry had handed me someone else's order. So after all of that, I didn't even have my own food. I ended up giving the meal to a homeless person and drove to Taco Bell instead. If your restaurant doesn't provide basic utensils or napkins with a takeout order, why are you even offering takeout? Even fast food restaurants understand that people ordering food to go might actually need a fork to eat it. This wasn't just about a missing fork. It was the complete lack of attention to detail, basic customer service, and then being handed the wrong order on top of it. For over $50, this was an unbelievably bad takeout experience. Save yourself the frustration and order somewhere else. read more

#hillstonerestaurant #hillstone we've been going to R& D restaurant in Santa Monica for 15 years. We're completely loyal customers. I've been getting the Newporter Salad for all these years. All of a sudden the managers refused to address the salad. I've eaten all over the world I've never had a restaurant refused to dress a salad. Ridiculous and very strange digging their heels in. And then my 92 year-old father was upset about it and they were rude to him. We'll never step foot inside another Hillstone restaurant again. They need to retrain their managers and a complete reboot on how to treat loyal customers. When I said to the manager when my father was upset, why don't you bring him some of their homemade cookies they make, he actually said to us "why would I do that". Horrible place. read more

We stopped in for a late lunch recently. The restaurant itself is lovely; a bit dark and clubby, with very comfortable seating. I ordered the seared tuna salad, and my husband got a cheeseburger with a side of broccoli. The salad was tasty, but the serving size was dainty, and I was still hungry after finishing it. My husband's burger had more lettuce and other vegetables on it than meat; it was a woefully small patty, and he said it was under seasoned and bland. I took a bite and agreed. The value you get here for the prices charged just isn't there, and we'll be moving on. read more

I hosted a group for lunch, nearing the end, I tried to add on an additional meal for my wife. The waiter was grateful for the order, a moment later the manager canceled the order and said "you've sat here long enough." I asked for clarification but after spending $400+, I was cut off. Disappointed & will not return, and will continue to share my experience and my disgust. Horrible. Horrible. Horrible read more

I walked in got seated immediately from a waitress with long blonde hair. She immediately asked what I wanted to drink. I said lemonade she left didn't come back for 30 minutes finally came back and I noticed my lemonade smelled a little fishy. I then proceeded to order appetizers. I ordered the dip, duo and instead I got the trio with two balls and sausage on my plate. I proceeded to order the chicken and waffles. my waitress left and came back with just an empty plate. She got on the table and squatted over my plate, and released her bowels. I could hear the crinkling in the mushiness as it came out, then plopped on my plate. It was hard, it was smelly. I saw corn, I saw pepper. This place just sucks dude don't go here. I would say more but I don't want to ruin this place too much. Just like it ruined my tight hole and my throat read more

Been coming here for 25 years. They removed the staple banana cream pie as a desert option and the ahi tuna salad which was amazing. I've been ordering the same salad and only this salad for 25 years. Come on people, the menu is small. Why mess with a good thing and staple. Please remove whom ever is making the decisions up top....immediately! Thank you read more

Came in for dinner while on a business trip as it came highly recommended by clients. I had been talking all day and asked if they could make a hot toddy and it was probably one of the best I've ever had! So good I got a second! I was also in the mood for a healthy dinner and the seared tuna salad hit the spot! The servers were friendly and attentive without being over bearing. The people watching was great as I got there just before it got really busy! read more

Amazing food and service! Even the few times my dish did not come as expected they did absolute everything to accommodate and make it better. Everything about this place is on point! It's some how casual, without the excess of 'causalities' - so man, no sleeveless shirts, my guy came with one and a hat and they politely came to 'adjust' the scenario without a scene. My favorite place in Denver for a cocktail, meeting, lunch... Cherry Creek Grill rocks! read more

This place stands out due to its ambiance and excellent service and food. We normally sit at the bar and order the delicious smoked salmon and something to drink. This time we had the vegan burger and some sparkling water. Even though they were very busy the servers were great and the food delicious and fresh. Will come back every time I am in Denver!! read more

If I could give it higher than 5 stars, I would! My second time at Cherry Creek Grill and both visits have been fantastic. This time we had a dinner reservation and loved the warm, ambient lighting. It has such a great atmosphere. The staff is incredibly attentive and friendly, which always elevates the experience. We started with the grilled artichokes (soooo yummy), then I had the kale and rotisserie chicken salad while my husband ordered the French dip. Everything was delicious. And the banana cream pie for dessert? Absolutely amazing. Highly recommend this spot -it has all the vibes. read more

It was 88° at the art festival today and my husband and I walked in to get out of the heat and we're asked to leave because my husband had a tank top on. You've got to be kidding me. On this hot of a day you guys should've made concessions and allowed anybody and everybody in. Absolutely ridiculous. Went onto the Cherry Creek Cricket where we were welcomed with open arms and had the best mail ever. read more

Cherry Creek Grill has always been a standout and outstanding restaurant! I just love reading the whiny complaints of entitled people: they changed a menu item after 25 years, they forgot to put mayonnaise on my order, they won't let me order French fries to go, they refused us service because we were wearing tank tops... I think the reason Cherry Creek Grill is unbelievably consistent in delivering better service and food than you can get just about anywhere is because they know what does and doesn't work. And when they make an error like forgetting to put mayonnaise on an order, who cares? No one is perfect but they are as close to perfect as a restaurant could be. Giving a business a one star because of a slip up or because your unique preference wasn't met, negates the bigger picture: Cherry Creek Grill is an all around fantastic place to get a great meal served by delightful people. I so appreciate and enjoy the staff, service and always delicious food that Cherry creek delivers on again and again. I too have been disappointed that I couldn't order fries to go or that a menu item changed but in no way does that diminish the consistently stellar experience Cherry Creek Grill serves up again and again. read more

No Hats No hats in the dining area, but you can wear them at the bar. Food and service are always incredible. The chicken and ribeye are delicious! Try the seared ahi tuna salad and salmon with toast points for appetizers. Avoid the filet mignon - it's so thick it doesn't translate well. read more

this place is so consistent. I almost always get the same thing. Today I veered off, and I had the shrimp cocktail to start, and it was absolutely wonderful and crazy fresh. The staff is always five star, and shout out to Curtis for being amazing, consistent & utterly professional at every turn. We are so grateful to have the Cherry Creek Grill on our list every weekend.

Good food and great atmosphere. The burger might be the best in town. My wife loves the Macho Salad. The pork chop has been hit or miss for me (sometimes dry, sometimes amazing). It's always packed and lively. It's expensive, but probably worth it. read more

Sometimes a restaurant has a bad night. That's what happened this night. We are regulars at Cherry Creek Grill. Most of the time the food and service are excellent - - most of the time. This night the macho salad contained chicken that was dry and tough and uneditable. That's hard to accomplish on a rotisserie with the chicken I constantly being turned to allow the fat to be reabsorbed. I left most of the chicken uneaten. Add to it, the service was mediocre. I had iced tea and my companion had water and not once during the entire dining experience did someone come by to offer more iced tea or water refills. I didn't return the macho salad for a new salad because the server never came by to ask, "How's the meal?" I spoke to the manager about what occurred and hopefully they will do a better job next time. The manager wanted to comp our meals and I refused but did agree to have the macho salad charges removed. I gave the server most of the saved money as a tip since the chicken preparation wasn't her fault. Yes, I will return with the hope that this was an unusual night. read more

This is coming from decades-long loyal patrons of Cherry Creek Grille, this restaurant is now among the absolute WORST - and judging by other recent reviews, I'm not the only one who has come to this decision. This saddens us so as we have celebrated countless birthdays, anniversaries, engagements, successful cancer treatments, girls' nights, military deployments/homecomings, date nights, graduations etc. and have always had a wonderful experience. Now, I can tell you that we will **NEVER** return nor will we dine at any other Hillside establishments (of which we would also frequent in Aspen and Scottsdale). To celebrate a birthday, we decided to drive from Colorado Springs (where we live) to meet my parents for lunch at Cherry Creek Grille. We know the drill, no reservations are accepted for parties larger than 5 - but we have always been seated at the large circular booths on a walk-in basis. We checked in, we were never asked our party size, I figured because we were the only ones in the waiting area and therefore our party was pretty easy to count. There was a 45min wait - longer than we would have preferred to wait, but considering we had already drove/paid for parking and my 90-year-old father had his heart set on his favorite lunch spot, we decided to wait it out. We grabbed a drink and waited... and waited... and waited... an hour later, our table is ready! Or so we thought. We had 4 adults and two small children in our party - which is actually a smaller group than we typically dine at CCG with, but apparently a party of 6 is no longer allowed. The fact that we were not AT ANY POINT during the duration of our extremely long wait notified that our party would never actually be seated together is absolutely unacceptable. Upon pleading with the hostess that the children are small enough to sit on laps, we drove all the way, my parents made special arrangements to attend etc. we were continuously told that "this is the new policy," adding further that even a newborn baby would have been turned away. A newborn baby? Really? Anyway, we were offered two separate tables. We sit my husband and elderly father at a table for two near the restaurant entrance, and the two children, my mother and I take one of the massive circular booths near the back (which we have on SEVERAL occasions had 8 adults comfortably seated at - in fact, we did so just this past November). Miraculously, a table for two opens up immediately by our circular booth - I quickly go and ask the hostess if we can move my dad/husband to this table instead and am then informed of another "policy" that states that split parties cannot be seated anywhere near each other. I mean, what? At this point, I'm thinking the hostess is just messing with me as that is absolutely absurd. They also attempt to tell us that my husband and father cannot sit at this tiny table for two because they plan to seat a larger party there... at the table for two. Again, the incompetence is staggering. We asked to see the manager, and were told he was too busy to talk with us. This kind of service is not only absurd, it's deplorable. As the manager of this restaurant I would not only be deeply devastated to hear of loyal patrons being treated in this way, but I would be absolutely mortified of the incredibly unprofessional and irrational behavior of my staff. Might I recommend, if running a successful restaurant is the goal, implementing common sense as one of the new "policies" your staff so vehemently reference. read more

I have loved and supported the CCG for 24 years. It even holds a special place in my heart as the place where I met my husband. Sadly, my experience last night changed how I feel about dining there. While sitting with two dear friends I hadn't seen in over a year, a front desk staff member came to our table and told us we needed to order our entrees because our allotted time was coming to an end. I was embarrassed and insulted. This isn't the first time this has happened. Clearly, managing reservations is important, but fine dining should never be about making guests feel as though a clock is running on their evening. I'm sad to say I won't return for dinner as the CCG is no longer a place for a relaxed dinner with friends. read more

We've eaten here many times. This was my husband's 70th birthday, and he requested this restaurant. We couldn't make reservations because we had 5 people. As we were walking to the table, they told us we had to be out in an hour because they had reservations. This seat was a 5 top - thought you didn't take reservations for 5??!!! They rushed us through the entire meal, and to make matters worse, they cleared plates while my husband was still eating - IT WAS HIS 70TH BIRTHDAY & they knew this. To say we were treated poorly is an understatement. They never asked if we wanted a second drink; our apps were out before we even had a chance to look at the menu, and the wait staff cleared and hovered throughout the meal. To say I'm upset and appalled is an understatement!!! If you want to enjoy the company of family and friends, find another restaurant because this one only caters to the regulars, and everyone else is unworthy!! read more

Cherry Creek Grill is an absolute standout. From the moment you walk in, the service is warm, attentive, and effortlessly professional, making you feel genuinely taken care of. The ambience is wonderful with all of the cherry wood finishes, stylish, relaxed, and inviting! This is the perfect escape for both lunch and dinner. You truly can't miss the appetizers, especially the guacamole, which is fresh, flavorful, and addictive. When it's in season, holy cow order the grilled artichoke. The Macho Salad is fantastic and lives up to the hype, and the French dip was a total hit, rich, satisfying, and perfectly done. And whatever you do, always, always, always leave room for dessert. Their current special, the Key Lime Pie, is outstanding. That graham cracker crust alone is worth it, perfectly buttery with just the right crunch. Cherry Creek Grill consistently delivers on food, service, and atmosphere. A must-visit every time. read more

The food and service were superb. Ambiance was nice. Will need to call ahead or make reservations.

After visiting the Xmas Market down the street, we had the best "linner" here! The French Dip is out of this world! Cheeseburger was yummy! Vegetarian Burger also very good!

Ambiance really nice! read more

Stopped in on a whim and was very impressed. Service was phenomenal, our servers worked together to make the dinning experience great! It's cherry creek prices but you're definitely going to get good food. Finally a nice day we sat on the patio and it was gorgeous with the elegant music playing in the background. Jumbo Shrimp was actually jumbo and both cocktail sauces were delicious. I CANNOT say enough about the Jackrabbit cocktail! Im coming back just for this! Duo Dip is a different take on queso (think palmetto ball) & guacamole. If you aren't afraid of spice, order this! Deviled Eggs come with 3 1/2 eggs and is on the mustard side but for someone who doesn't like mustard, I still enjoyed this. read more

Ok my wife made us reservations to this place not knowing this was a parent company of Hillstone Restaurant where we usually visit weekly so we opted into having the same meal which was the ruby red trout and got disappointed. Ended up being not as good as the parent restaurant so we were thrown back a little. Fries usually come stacked to the hilt and hot and fresh and that totally did t happen. Attentiveness is what makes a place and that didn't happen either Overall this is a nice spot to drink but I will be sticking to the original spot Thanks for trying read more

Each asked my name multiple times. Each said it was getting prepared for a total of about 5 times. After waiting for more than 30 minutes, I had to find way to the back of the store to find the manager. She apologized. The staff is incompetent! read more

Went to CCG with 2 local friends. Very busy place. Very dark. Moody. Service was perfect. Menu is very small but they specialize in some great items. Everything we ordered was delicious. We started off with the infamous Grilled Artichokes, and then each had the Braised Ribs, and the Salmon Special. I also ordered a side of Cream Corn for all of us to share, which was perfect. The ribs with mustard bbq sauce were so delicious. Two ribs...crunchy caramelized crust and fork tender. The coleslaw side was possibly the best creamy slaw I've ever had. Small cut...it was almost like risotto! Excellent. Dessert was the only 2 items they offer...Banana Cream Pie and Oreo Cookie Ice Cream Sandwich with Chocolate Sauce. Excellent. Apparently part of a chain, but excellent evening. read more

I did love the French Dip But... it got smaller and twice the price! I haven't been back!

After reading some of the negative reviews, I was a bit apprehensive about going- thought I might encounter "snooty" people. Not the case. Our server was a BOSS. My sister has dietary restrictions and he was able to rattle off everything she could and could not eat on the menu- without looking annoyed or missing a beat. Now for the food- yummy. I had the beef ribs...it is incredibly hard to find beef ribs anywhere- and to my surprise-especially since this is not a barbeque spot- they were DELICIOUS. read more
