Ok here we go. I'm at the airport at 7p to eat before my 11:59p redeye. CapitalOne lounge tells me to F off, they won't let me in at any point. DIA is stupid and has no priority pass lounges. And by the time I'm looking for actual restaurants for food, they're all closing kitchens. at 7:30pm on a Tuesday when flights go out of this airport until 11:59pm. I wandered the entire A and B terminals looking for an open mid level - a restaurant, but not high end. Everyone turned me away or was already closed down. So here I am at Elway's. They don't close the kitchen until 10:30p, and stay open later for drinks. Be prepared for sticker shock. A burger is $25 without a side. Sides are $15. This place is definitely geared to the folks who don't think twice about spending $200 on drinking at the airport while watching a sports ball. I'm not the target demographic but I'm still able to eat a hot meal. Service was fine but they placed me in front of a TV next to the kitchen and employees and diners a like have been staring past my head the whole time. Very weird and uncomfortable place to put a table. read more

Elway's - MVP burger with onion rings... $45. - New American Near Me - Denver, Colorado

We just had one of the best gourmet burgers, hands down! I had the mushroom burger and my husband had the Colorado burger. They use premium beef and they know how to cook it! It was very juicy. You will need extra napkins to eat it! We shared the house salad. Also excellent! Fantastic service by our server Jenn. She gave great recommendations and had a third sense about being available when we needed something. We finished with the key lime pie! Dang, that was amazing too! When we left the restaurant to go to our gate, my husband remarked that he forgot he was in an airport. If you want the best burger, in or out of Denver airport, go to Elway's. And for the best service, ask to be in Jenn's section! The restaurant is in the middle section of the B concourse. read more

Not expecting actual fine food in an airport but here it is. Right up there with Ruth Chris or Capital Grill. Maybe not quite the same service or decor, but the food was outstanding. We had the Steak Tacos - totally flavorful and tender. Next the house salad, very good. Next the Short Ribs! Tender and flavorful and as think as a steak. Finished with Key Lime pie that they make onsite. Fantastic. If you have the time it's worth the stop. read more

At terminal B at Denver airport. I had the calamari, little ears of corn and green olives. All beer battered. It was very good. Never had any of those things deep fried in beer batter. I'd definitely get it again. The seasonings they used was good too. Also had an IPA but I forget the brand. Service was on point too. read more

Becoming a A regular stop while in DEN. Last time I got the Chinese chicken salad to go. This time I had 3 hours to kill so I got a Dirty martini and the steak salad and ate at the bar. I requested half romaine lettuce and half arugula versus all arugula. And the steak I ordered medium rare. First version, the steak came out overdone. The chef came out and apologized. Second version was perfect. I liked it a lot - it was excellent - but the chicken salad is lighter which I prefer when flying. Definitely recommend this place and I will return. read more

Elway's - Steak salad - New American Near Me - Denver, Colorado

Elway's is a well-known restaurant in Colorado for fine-dining. After being delayed at Denver International Airport, I decided to try it out for the first time. Why not? Located conveniently right next to the escalators off the train, my first impression was that it looked nice and similar to many nicer restaurants I've been to. The food itself was ok. I tried to find a better adjective to describe the food but ok was the word that kept popping up on my mind while eating. First off, I wanted some vegetables so looked at the sides and was very surprised to see that both the broccoli and asparagus were $16. Wow. I opted for a side salad which was $6 and tasted like a $6 salad. The salmon was quite expensive at $48 and I thought it was a bit overpriced for what it was. I was not too impressed there. The salmon was cooked well at a medium which was what I asked for but I thought the flavor was a bit bland. Service was awesome. Erin made sure that I never was waiting for anything too long and was very attentive. Thanks Erin! Overall, if you want a nicer meal at the airport and don't mind spending a bit extra, Elway's may not be a bad choice. read more

The food was above average for airport fare. Jason was our waiter and was perfectly attentive. Our breakfast came out super fast, and it turned out that's because the potatoes and biscuit were pre-cooked so were barely warm. Otherwise it would have been five stars. read more

Pretty good breakfast for a "steakhouse " in an airport. Service was fast and Julie took good care of us. Eggs scrambled perfectly and I really liked the way they made the home fries. The biscuits were surprisingly flaky and tasty. No real ambiance - it is an airport after all - but it was not unpleasant and well laid out for diners with luggage. The espresso martini tempted me. Next time... read more

Yikes, this is not the place to order avocado toast. I was expecting a bit more from an Elway's restaurant. Yuck! Cold, unseasoned avocado paste on a cold piece of buttered sour dough toast. Oh, and a side of semi moldy fruit. Even the poached egg was rubbery. The service is excellent and the restaurant itself is pleasant enough. read more

Shocked because it was honestly really good airport food (so much that i wrote a review here). Not much wait and the staff is really friendly too!

Great place to grab a bite while waiting for your flight. Friendly staff. Pretzel app is delicious. Tons of fondue for it, but they said if we need more bites it's just $3. Such a great deal. Well lit, great music, and big screen tv in the bar area. Nicely done. read more

Best steak house in Denver ! My husband and I went for our anniversary,service and food were top notch . Highly recommended!

Good lunch here last Wednesday afternoon. Pleasant atmosphere located within the Ritz-Carlton Hotel. Phenomenal wine selection by the glass. I had Elway's own production. Excellent! I started with a side Caesar salad and then the filet Mignon with truffle French fries. Good choices all around. Service was excellent, professional, attentive, and friendly. read more

I've been here a few times now. It never disappoints. I did have one time where my filet was undercooked but they brought me a new steak and were very understanding. I love the staff here as well. They always go above and beyond for me. 10/10 would recommend! read more

My server was Rebecca, and she was great. She was attentive and knew how to interact with someone who was Deaf. Most people tend to shy away from me. I lip-read very well, but the Deaf community is diverse. If you have questions, write them down or use your notepad on your smartphone. It's not that difficult. Koodos to her! Also, the burger was thick and well-made, juicy, and tasty. The wait wasn't significant, but I was willing to wait. Rebecca made sure my glass was filled with soda and the other with water. She was awesome! read more

Incredible server. Incredibly poor food quality. Hard to overstate that, but really nice staff.

Elway's serves high quality food but offers seating/dining with a cafe like atmosphere, they share tables with a coffee bean which made me question how they justified the prices of some of their menu items. The sides were priced as high as $16 for broccoli.. unbelievable. We tried the cheeseburger and truffle fries, both were delicious. Decent food offerings for a premium price. read more

I recently had the chance to dine at Elway's inside Denver International Airport, and I have to say -- it's a great addition. I've really missed the old Denver ChopHouse that used to be here, but Elway's makes for a solid alternative. The service staff was excellent -- friendly, organized, and very attentive. My steak was phenomenal, cooked perfectly and full of flavor. The only thing that left a bit to be desired were the cocktails, which didn't quite match the quality of the food. Overall, though, I really enjoyed the experience and will definitely return. Just keep in mind this is a fine dining option within the airport, so the prices are on the higher side -- but you're getting quality to match. A great spot for a relaxed meal before a flight or a long layover. read more

All you need to know to have a great meal.....ribeye medium rare and blue cheese butter. Thank me later. Service was punctual as it should be in an airport. Ambiance was in line with your expectations. read more

Ate at the newer location in terminal A and the windows and fresh decor make for a really nice setting for an airport restaurant. Ordered the steak salad which is a good sized portion with a 4-5oz steak. Service is quick and attentive. Definitely will be back if a flight is leaving from this area! read more

Barbara was wonderful today. Had some time to eat at my favorite airport DIA restaurant.

Always enjoy the food, atmosphere and desserts! Will keep coming back ... read more

Over priced. Space needs a face lift. Felt like an old school steakhouse with new school prices. Needed a good vacuum. Hostesses were the best part of our experience. Kind and accommodating. We expressed our allergies, and were confident based on our servers feedback, we'd be safe. Then my Caesar salad had some egg in it (doesn't come with it), and my friend got extremely sick when we left (celiac). $27 for a burger with nothing else is for fine dining steakhouses - this felt so far from that. read more

aWeird that the restaurant in DIA doesn't offer a way to leave a review. You would think a restaurant that offers a mediocre burger for $27, PLUS another $10 or more for a mediocre side, would welcome feedback. read more

The food and services are incredible. The short rib portion is huge and it's savory, not sweet at all like some short rib recipes read more

I stopped here to grab lunch while at the airport and the prices were WAY higher than anticipated. I got the bacon burger, and while it was tasty, the $25 price tag was a shocker; especially since that doesn't include a side.The fries were an additional $10, but they were hot, crispy, and salted. Airport meals can be hit or miss and this was thankfully a hit but I'll likely explore other options the next time I'm in the airport. read more

I am very happy to be the first person to review this new Elways at Denver Airport (there is one at concourse B, but this location just opened in concourse A)! We were just at the Elways in Cherry Creek last night (absolutely fabulous, ask for Don) so I guess I am a fan of this steakhouse chain! Service was 5/5. Food was 4/5 (of course this is airport food so I wasn't expecting gourmet). Truffle fries & prime dip. Half bottles of Prisoner & Hess. Full bar! And the ambiance was 4/5 (again, swanky for an airport). Situated in a bright airy part of the airport. If you're in concourse A...come and check them out! read more

Stoped in for drinks on our way through DIA. Very nice atmosphere. Their menu is limited when compared to their other locations.

If you have time between flights, this is a great choice. My wife had 2 eggs, breakfast potatoes and link sausage. There was three good sized sausage links. For my wife they had a little too much pepper. I thought they were perfectly seasoned myself. I had the eggs benedict and the hollandaise sauce was not only perfect, it was a perfect amount. The only down side was the breakfast potatoes were a little cool. read more

Super excited to try this place because of the reviews and the service leading up to us going. We had a large group of 12 of us and we had a lot of changes in the restaurant was so incredibly accommodating the service once we got there was fabulous. The wine was excellent. The only thing that was a bit disappointing was the quality of the steak. A bit tough to cut through and not terribly tasty. The lobster tail was OK. The wedge salad was wonderful. I ended up having a very small portion of the state because it just wasn't that great unfortunately. The reason this place God three starts as opposed to less is because the service was really top-notch. read more
