***** READ THIS REVIEW ***** Really good - best food in Denver airport. Perfect spot while waiting for your flight. Talk to your waitress about what's the best and you will be amazed!! New Orleans BBQ Shrimp: - 9.5 out of 10 (bread was over salted otherwise 10/10) Great presentation, color, and plating. Excellent complex flavor with perfectly cooked shrimp. Has absolutely no characteristic of what you imagine "BBQ" is (smoked meats, baked beans, coleslaw, etc... yes, I'm from Texas). However, the seasoning and sauce are a very complex and savory - a Louisiana quizine with Cajun influences. Absolutely delicious! Has a subtle heat on the backend (gentle) which diminishes after a minute or so. The bread is a great addition... savory contrast the seasoning of the sauce. Absolutely worth the price. Very high-quality recipe and execution. I could eat this every day for lunch!!! FYI - had the Stag's Leap Chardonnay. Perfect pairing. Tenderloin Tips & Mushrooms: - 8.5 out if 10 (execution flaw on meat prevented 10/10) The meat of course is tender, but cut way to small for this dish. I requested medium rare and got medium well. This was inevitable because the meat was cut way too small. The dark sauce is decadently savory, but not heavy. Has hints of a something like a balsamic and/or red wine reduction base. Very enjoyable as a great compliment to the beef. Note 1: Would be better with meat bites 3x or 4x larger so a nice sear and medium rare could be accomplished. (Almost the size of a large marshmallow.) Note 2: Is a sizable portion and easily can be split two ways if you want to save time or do not eat large portions. Mashed Potatoes: Absolutely perfect. Creamy and no lump - you can tell a little bit of butter and things were added to it to make it savory. Delicious. Green Beans: Again, a perfect cook. Not salty or over cooked, and the true flavor comes through beautifully. Here again this entire dish with the mashed potatoes and green beans as a definite repeat item. Get some! Staff: Mary was extremely attentive and well trained as a waitress. When I asked if the area I was currently in was always warm... she insisted I move to a better table by simply saying, "Follow me" and she picked up my menu and walked away before I could respond!! (WOW, awesome VIP care!) Mary remembered every detail and little things that I would ask for without me having to repeat the request. When I asked her what's good and what's not, she was very honest and help me make the right selections. She's a star! Yo management!!! Get her in the downtown location asap. She is that good, but humble. She can definitely meet any white tablecloth expectation. Atmosphere: For an airport restaurant this is very nice. Darkwoods, soft lighting, nice decor, wood tables, pleasant music playing softly. I totally forgot. I was even in an airport. Well done. Overall Score: 9 out of 10 GO! GO! GO! read more

Restaurants at airports aren't always known for their excellence, but I ate at this place while waiting for a plane and it was a good experience. I sat at the counter outside and tried to order with the QR code but a server was required. She was very nice (as was all the staff) and quickly got my order. My steak sandwich and fries was pretty good and it was a big portion...it could have easily fed two people. I also had a large bottle of Pellegrino and with tip, everything was $41. Like I said, it could feed two so I think a decent $20 meal (per person) at an airport restaurant isn't a bad deal. Combine that with nice service and I give this place four stars. read more

We recently were flying out of DIA and had some time to kill prior to our flight and we were hungry. We decided to eat here and choose some seats at the bar. The bartender was very nice and efficient. I got the crab cakes and my husband got a salad. Food arrived fairly quickly which is always appreciated at the airport since there's usually a time crunch. Food was okay, rarely is airport food exceptional. And of course it was overpriced as is to be expected when at the airport. It was fine and I would eat there again. read more

Service: I'm deducting a star because I had to wait to be seated for almost 10 minutes. My actual Table Server was okay, but didn't check on me during my meal. Sorry. Drinks: Coffee was great! Much better than any bitter Starbucks coffee that you need to dilute with Mocha, chocolate, 1/2 and 1/2, syrups, or whatever the heck people add to black Coffee so they don't need to taste coffee. Entree: Prime Rib Breakfast Burrito ($$13.95). - Details for the Burrito from their menu: "Prime Rib Breakfast Burrito USDA Prime rib, breakfast sausage, eggs, onions, peppers and white cheddar in a chipotle tortilla. smothered with tomatillo stiss and meied white cheddar. Served with country potatoes." Taste: I never had a Prime Rib breakfast burrito--but I'm a FAN! Plus, the potatoes and side of bread was perfect! HOWEVER, I do like some condiments for meals (e.g. Salsa, extra butter and Jam for bread). Ambiance: Subdued, warm colors, and quiet. Nice for those of us trying to wake up and grab a decent breakfast before a flight. Overall: I will go back--but I will allow extra time for service delays. And I won't have high expectations. read more

We had the prime and cheddar. It's basically a French dip with cheddar on it. It's very good. I would order it again. It's in the airport so it's loud and busy. We used the QR code to scan and order - it was very handy. Service was very fast. read more

Decent food for an airport. Nice to be able to get a good quality salad. Wish I could depend on Service sometimes great sometimes not as good and airport that's all about being able to get in and out on a reliable time. Or you don't go don't know don't goanyway as always, I think management would be the best benefit quality food and for God sakes make some really gluten-free food available. It's hard to believe sometimes whether it's actually gluten-free or not. Otherwise I'm not going don't know don't go. read more

They were open late before a red eye flight, so I stopped in. The beer was good. I ordered a BBQ burger. They were busy, so the burger took a bit to come out, but it was pretty standard and met expectations. The bar area was good and had a few TVs with the game on. read more

Hanna is the best server! "How are you doing on time?" This is a crucial question when dinning at the airport. I so appreciate that she takes the time to ask all of her clients. We arrived at 9:30am and the restaurant was busy but not too bad we got sat, ordered and had our food by 9:45am. We both ordered the same. Food was good. Nothing to rave about but it hits the spot. Hanna was nice enough to walk us through the digital check out process. read more

Denver Chophouse & Breweries - Steak and sunny side up eggs - Gastropubs Near Me - Denver, Colorado

I wish I looked up other reviews before stopping in here. Like many others mentioned the service can be very slow and the host staff were not friendly. I did have a good experience with my server and she thanked me for being patient but the kitchen can be slow and I wouldn't recommend people eat here unless they have a very long layover. I got the bbq burger and it was over cooked. The food is also not what you would expect from a steakhouse and I think it's better to go to the food court across the hall and get similar quality for much less and faster. read more

While it is in the airport, a chop house should be a bit upscale in my mind. The most puzzling part of our visit was the checkout by using your phone. I watched many patrons get frustrated with the process. While we had no issues, it is worth pointing out that you scan your qr code on the table and enter credit card info to pay. We ordered the cheeseburger and fries, and she had the chop chop salad. While the sald was delicious, the cheeseburger was very average. Our waitress seemed like she may have had too many tables or helping people pay was taking much time away from her. My guess is the value of the qr code pay is not worth what you are paying for the system. read more

Great tuna starter and nice cocktail during my short layover. Service was good, and it's very easy to pay and go with the QR code system. Don't spend a ton of time in the A terminal but always stop here when I do. read more

Denver Chophouse & Breweries - Ahi Starter - Gastropubs Near Me - Denver, Colorado

I had a layover in Denver on the way to Indianapolis and I had a good 2 hours to spare. Hungry as I am, I looked for the what I thought was the best option. First off, I had to wait 15 mins for the waitress to notice me and give me a menu. Next, I had to wait another 20 mins for service. By the time my order is in, I already lost my appetite. The food took another 30 mins to come, so I've waited a lil more than an hour just to eat. Luckily, I'm a quick eater and I'm able to devour my whole bbq cheeseburger, fries, and ipa in an epic time of 20 mins - or else I would probably would have missed my flight and stay at the chophouse for breakfast... Overall, the food is mediocre and the service is very slow. Come here only if you have a lot of time to kill! read more

Melanie was excellent as our server and the host was super friendly too. The place wasn't overly busy when we got there and our holiday lunch could proceed with little drama. The restaurant was so festive and put us in the holiday spirit. I decided on the ahi tuna steak frites after a challenging decision making process. The seasoning was a little salty for me but the ahi inside was fine and with the salad, the taste balanced out. The salad was a huge portion for a side. Lots of fries with my dish as well. I shared them with my friend. I would return because I would like to try some other dishes and the service was amazing. read more

Great food, exceptional service! Good vibes all around. Great place for a special occasion!

Service was great! Super quick, super sweet staff. Got the chicken burger without cheese. It was pretty decent. For a side of the house salad but for some reason they gave me a Caesar salad. I asked them to take off the cheese because I'm lactose intolerant, not realizing that I still can't have the dressing :/ ate it anyways haha Got a glass of white wine, the server definitely enabled my need for another class hence I ordered two full glasses of white wine. No complaints here- read more

Tried the burger which was great and a nice break from the crowds in the concourse. read more

Date of visit: July 17, 2023 I had a lengthy layover in Denver and needed a place to plug in my laptop and charge as well as make some calls. The Chophouse had a nice area that was exterior to the restaurant that was perfect for this activity. Unfortunately I was told this section was closed but I could use the bar instead. I advised that this would be too noisy for me and was met with a shrug. Ah, the Lost Art of Customer Service! Thankfully found another option in the airport. read more

So if you don't start off right it won't end up right from the sarcastic attitude of our hostess who wanted to seat us at a dirty table smh the to place our orders Caesar salad with sirloin steak medium not blue rare a chophouse cheeseburger well done not burnt what a organized catastrophe then you bring our food and 4 tables have no silverware omg stale bread cause this wasn't Brioche the was yet a epic fail but since travelers don't have many options they feel they are getting a better airport dining experience my answer is go fast foot at least you won't get bamboozled by the ambience bar and bustling pandemonium pass this place read more

My flight was delayed for a couple hours so I decided to load up for the 35,000 foot trip. When coming on, you will immediately notice that the Denver Chophouse is similar to a gastropub (think Golden Bee) The restaurant has the ambiance of a pub and has typical pub food, and a fully stocked bar in case you desire a hangover during your flight. I would recommend the honey chicken sandwich, with a Cesar salad. The sandwich is in ascending order: a crunchy bun, a very soft chicken breast, melty Swiss cheese, soft, hickory smoked bacon, an angry onion, juicy tomato, and crisp lettuce. The top bun is hard to find as it's berried beneath the second half of the sandwich. It's more of a chicken hamburger than a sandwich. The service is amazing, but it does take a long time to get your food, but otherwise, the service is impeccable, especially for a airport restaurant. The price is a little high but it's worth it! I left very satisfied, not overstuffed and wanting to go back asap. Tl;Dr: Denver Chophouse is a gastropub like restaurant that is fairly high priced , and has amazing service and food. I would highly implore you to try the amazing honey chicken sandwich. read more

Few things prove as satisfactory after traveling as a quality cheeseburger at a real steakhouse. Unfortunately, here, what was served up was neither. The meat was well done despite asking for medium well. The meat had a slight, dated taste and smell to it, cooked on a fry pan vs being charbroiled. The bun, while toasted, was Wonder bread boring, flavorless. Caesar salad was replete with Colorado-styled, soggy lettuce. The service? Meh. I carefully asked before ordering if it came with lettuce and tomato and how generous they would be with these. She just interrupted me stating "it comes with everything." The salad didn't come first as requested. Everything seemed to be a special hassle for the server. For $23 rounded, they should ask about condiments desired. It was just like high quality diner food in a nice setting. A manager named Kris did come by, tragically too late, and demonstrated genuine concern, providing me with a chocolate cake slice and even taking care of the bill. This whole chapter, to me seems avoidable: Scrap the fry pan; Buy a char broiler Don't overcook the meat Connect with a local baker and buy buns Train better the servers Buy fresher lettuce and store meat less time. read more

The service was pretty good. Our waitress was super sweet. My fiancé and I ordered a couple steaks and specifically said we wanted them "very" well done but when we got them they were both still super pink inside. Even after we asked them to reheat it. The photo attached is of after we sent it back. However, the parts that were actually well done were surprisingly good! Also, our waitress apologized about it not being cooked correctly and gave a discount on our meal. The place is also very nice looking. It has a little bar inside and is definitely a great place to stop if you have a long layover between flights. read more

Tried Denver Chophouse and Brewery for dinner this nice Monday, 3/22/2021. Upon arrival to this airport restaurant: Pros: 1) entrance line was long! But it went fast. 2) tables were clean, cups clean. Silverwares were not clean. 3) waitress was nice. She was fast. Brought all of our drinks pretty quick. Brought us utensils wrapped in blue napkins. 4) foods were good. We ordered our Top Sirloin medium rare and it came out pretty good. Chicken salad was ok. Stout BBQ Bacon Burger ok. 5) there's plugs under the chairs by the wall to charge your electronics. The higher tables had sections where you can slide your luggage underneath you. 6) they serve a selected alcohol drinks here. 7) you order and pay online. The waitress just brings you the foods. Cons: 1) silverwares were dirty. I had to wet my napkin and wipe th been down. 2) kids cheese burger was super dry! Hard to eat. Good thing we had water. 3) they cannot give steak knives to cut. So be prepared to use a butter knife to cut your steak or sirloin. 4) if you are a family, sitting at same table, but paying separately, the app is quite confusing. It kept adding our friend's food orders into our order or vice versa. 5) On the app, there's no option to pick your steak or sirloin medium rare or rare, if you like it that way. You have to put your notes into the additional instructions on the very bottom. So if you order a burger and want it medium rare or rare, make sure to note it on the bottom. Or else meat patty will be VERY cook and chewy. 6) gratuity was already added on our tab. Conclusion: It's airport food. What can you say. It keeps you from being hungry. Albeit, we liked our sirloin. Good thing they provided those little salt and black pepper packets. Gave it much better flavor. I appreciate that the waitress brought me a little teapot of hot water for me when I asked for a 2nd cup of hot water. It's not too shabby here. Try it if you haven't. read more

Service was horrible, took drink order, delivered food and never checked in on us. Ordered fish and chips and all I got was Salt and the equivalent of glorified elementary school fish sticks.

The wait staff does the best that they can. They are superb friendly But super understaffed Expect a VERY long wait. I arrived at 9:37. I was served at 10:41. !!!! And the food is barely palatable. But it's the only game in town at this time so.. read more

Was here on Sunday August 14. Guy seating people was very nice. The waitress was also very nice and attentive. Food was absolutely terrible! The worst burger I have ever had. Got the burger with bacon. Bun was dry. The meat was dry and seemed old. The Caesar salad was terrible. I asked the gal that brought the food out for ketchup. She looked at me and said nothing and acted really irritated. Well gosh have ketchup at the table. You serve fries for gosh sakes. I should have went to McDonalds! It would have been 2$ vs my crappy $20 meal at the Chop house. The worst part, is I felt bad for the NBA basketball team that was in eating that day. They were probably like this is the worstttt food ever. read more

The only reason this received a two (2l rating is because of a decent glass of wine. This used to be one of my favorite restaurants in DIA, not so any longer. Very limited menu. My Ceasar salad was over dressed with dry Salmon when I asked for it to be cooked medium. It is like a mill, get customers in and out with the least effort and less than stellar food and service. Save your money!!!! read more

I had a long layover so I walked by this place several times and it was busy all afternoon. SERVICE: When I finally got in line, it turned out to be only a 5 minute wait to be seated (not bad), and I was notified by the host/hostess that it would be about 35 minute wait for food...they even asked me if that would be okay. I thought that was a nice touch, but maybe standard for an airport. All staff were pleasant and efficient. Overall, the service was very good. DRINK and FOOD: I asked for a beer taster and was given one with an "of course" response. I then ordered a 20oz. Dortmunder Lager (blonde beer) which is a little on the bitter side, but goes well with hearty foods, like a Top Sirloin steak. My order came with a garden salad with blue cheese dressing and a chilled fork (nice touch #2). The steak was prepared as requested, medium rare, however it wasn't the best cut of beef. Not much fat and a little tough. Also, no steak knives allowed at the airport, so that made it even tougher to cut and eat. The white cheddar mashed potato side was very tasty. All-in-all, a pleasant experience and somewhere I'd stop in again, when travelling through. read more

Hosted was a month in and confused how or where to seat us. Then asked to look up my gift card and she had no idea how to do it or cared to help. Maybe find a manager and learn. Also return with the wine menu you forgot and said you would return with. Bad start Service 2 out of 5 Waited over 5 min to be greeted with water Martinis 2 out of 5. 3 martinis ordered and all were served in different glassware Food 2 out of 5 Prime rib a bit over cooked and baked potato was a little under done. Onion soup small for price but good This place was one of our go to places but has taken a dive going down hill. This is the place when all other restaurants are booked till 9pm you can get into this place. read more

I'm reviewing the Denver International Airport location and it is in no way up to par with the standard of the downtown restaurant, as to be expected. Notes for the staff: 1. "Kettle One" was watered down. I had to reorder my martini and it was jo better the second time. Also, it was noted as a Titis martini on my bill. If indeed there was some sort of compensation granted, it should have been brought to my attention. 2. The steak salad was drowning in dressing, understandablly served with only a butter knife, and undercooked. I asked as I ordered if the staff cooks true to temperature, and was assured yes, hence ordered medium rare. As you can see my meat was a true rare. 3. Attitude: I normally hang out in concourse B but, so this was one if my first dine-in experiences in concourse A. I will say that in comparison to Elways, who holds true to their values and caliber of hospitality and quality of product, I find this inferior to the downtown Chop House location, where everything is always impeccable! The staff here seemed annoyed, rude to other customers (not me) and overall unhappy in their position. Perhaps I caught them on a bad day. Everyone has them. read more

This place is crazy busy! Even though I had a relatively short flight to San Francisco, it was lunchtime, so I stopped into Chophouse for what I thought was going to be a quick bite. Though I can't rate the kitchen speed highly, customer service was excellent. Sitting at the bar, I ordered a Bloody Mary and steak salad. It seemed super packed here, but thankfully my drink came quickly. It was so good, my mouth is watering as I write this. I love when I ask places to spice up my Bloody Mary and they go all-in. After waiting for at least 30 minutes, my salad still hadn't come, so I asked the bartender to make it takeaway. They were friendly and apologized it was taking so long. It was quick and easy to pay for my meal and dash off with my salad to the gate shortly before my flight took off. The steak salad itself was fantastic. It was a little pricey--as is airport food--but tasty and filling. Next time I'd try to plan a little more ahead so I have more time to wait for food and not feel so rushed. All in all, I'm glad it ended up being worth the wait! read more

Wanted a decent meal before boarding our flight. Don't recommend. Ordered salmon Caesar salad - fish was way over cooked. Didn't even flake when cutting. Husband ordered the fish & chips and it tasted like frozen fish sticks. And his Pinot noir was served in a Stella glass. My wine is the only enjoyable aspect of my meal. This is going to be an expensive meal, especially when going to McDonald's would have been better tasting, higher quality food. read more

Ya'll, my go to has gone downhill. I'm so sad really- my travels take me through Denver often and I usually look forward to a $24 glass of wine and an extremely overpriced entree or appetizer just because the service and quality of food make it worth it. Not so much today. They were busy of course, but my wine was hot- not kept at proper temp and my crab cake was pitiful and small. The roasted corn and tomato just weren't: a couple of cold kernels of corn and a lonely little grape tomato raw. I was forced to use a QR code to pay, no service to speak of- ordered with a friendly waitress, but the food was expo'd directly from the kitchen and I had to hunt for someone to check me out when I was ready to go. After a few minutes I was told to check out with the QR code. :/ $45 for a glass of wine and a tiny cold crab cake with zero personal service. No thanks. I'll just use the self checkout at the little HMS host for less than half the price. read more

This place is pretty bad... even for the wealthy. But with no other decent options, you'll have to go here. They stop serving breakfast at 9:30 then move to the dinner menu. It's so absurd it's comical! So after 9:30, you can get a burger for $20. Plus a $5 iced tea. Also available is a $37 chicken picatta or $38 steak. Greeters are cranky. Servers are the highlight. Friendly & efficient. read more

I wanted a real meal instead of fast food but I think I would have been happier with McDonald's. I ordered the fish and chips $18. The fries were cold, the slaw had no flavor, the fish was fishy and the breading on the fish was weird tasting and way too thick. I thought paying a little more and going more upscale I would get a better meal than the fast food choices but I was very disappointed. I ordered a glass of wine. They only had too choices for white even though there were several on the menu... apparently they were out. The chard was good but I had to ask for a glass of water. Next time I'm flying through Denver I'll choose something, anything else. read more
