From the owner: Forge exists to expand God's Kingdom by challenging people to fully devote their lives to God and…read moreby equipping them to live lives of active ministry: Hearts on Fire. Lives on Purpose. Our God is an all-consuming Fire, a Forge that is shaping people to have everyday impact for Christ. We challenge and equip people to pursue an intimate relationship with God where they are transformed into Kingdom-building laborers, like strong metal being forged by fire into valuable tools. Forge Speakers travel to various churches and events, and we offer in-depth equipping and coaching programs that prepare youth and adults for ministry wherever God has placed them. We sum up the ministry of Forge with two simple phrases: Hearts on Fire through intimacy with God and Lives on Purpose by laboring for His Kingdom. In Matthew 9, Jesus gives a clear picture of God's call for us to live and work for Kingdom purposes, not our own. After seeing the crowds and being moved with compassion, Jesus observed, "the harvest is plentiful but the laborers are few. Pray therefore the Lord of the harvest to send out laborers." We challenge you to enter the Forge and become an active part of God's Kingdom work in this world.

I asked my friends a the valet service at Park Meadow where they would go. Seeing as these guys park millions of dollars worth of Ferraris and Lamborghinis I assume they could tell me where to go. The unanimously said Forged Auto Styling. They gave me a contact number and I was immediate in touch with the shop. I talked about my needs which included full window tint and a complete front end protection. I brought the car to the shop a few days later and the gal in the office greeted us and said they were expecting us and verified what we wanted done, options on how to accomplish that and time frames for completion. Both representatives we throughly prepared and very knowledgeable about products and process. I confidently left our new Porsche there. When we went to pick it up we were stunned by the quality of the finish. I have clear bra'd many cars but this job was seamless It looked like there was no product on the car and not a single bubble or blemish by far the best jobs I had seen. To top it off pricing was on par with other places that had done a much poorer job. We are sending in my Range Rover for a refresh including refinishing wheels and leather refurbishing. They even coordinate with a sister shop that does actually body work if necessary. This place is impressive give them a call before you go elsewhere!

It's hard to put into words how wonderful our experience was with David at MetalArc. We had…read morecompleted a beautiful high end kitchen remodel and the crowning jewel was to be the metal and glass cabinet doors that our architect had drawn in. However, the company she had used in the past wouldn't call me back. I found MetalArc using Google. And I'm beyond happy I did. First, their commitment to their craft is top notch. They will work diligently to get the project right. The level of refinement that we were looking for with these doors was not a hurdle they shied away from but rather they accepted the challenge and worked side by side with me to get it exactly right. The finished product is stunning, we couldn't be happier. Second, David's level of communication is a rarity. He is such a well spoken, clear and eloquent communicator. It is a lost art in today's day and age. I was impressed time and time again with his clarity and thoughtfulness in every conversation and email. This was truly a "project" that required communication and collaboration and he impressed me time and time again. Third, he is a good man whose primary goal was not only meeting but exceeding expectations. On top of being an expert in his craft, he has mastered being a good person. I can't say enough good things about him (and his brother, Joseph!). Thank you we will continue to sing your praises.

We hired Metal Arc to fabricate and install custom steel shelving. I want to be fair from the…read moreoutset -- the shelves do look good now -- but getting to that outcome was far more stressful and frustrating than it should have been for a custom fabrication project. There were multiple measurement errors throughout the process. They mismeasured twice and had to come back to redo work, which felt sloppy and avoidable given the scope and cost of custom metalwork. More concerning were the alignment issues: the shelving did not align cleanly with the wall or even with itself. Metal Arc did not take accountability for these issues, and I was genuinely surprised that they considered this an acceptable finished deliverable. Because this was never properly resolved by Metal Arc, we ultimately had our painter use black tape to visually hide the gaps. That solution felt lazy and disappointing, and not something I expected to need after paying for custom work. Scheduling also added to the frustration. They were extremely evasive about confirming an installation date, which made it difficult to coordinate other contractors and keep our overall project on track. Communication throughout was another challenge. David was often long-winded and repetitive, which caused simple issues to drag on unnecessarily. He was also surprisingly aggressive about me not being present for a walkthrough, despite my husband being there, checking in multiple times, and being told by David's brother that he was "just there for measurements." I do believe they want to do good work, but they lack business professionalism, clear communication, and accountability. That combination created a lot of stress and uncertainty about whether we were actually going to reach a finished result. In the end, aside from the taped workaround, I'm happy with how the shelves look -- but the process was exhausting enough that I would proceed very cautiously or look elsewhere next time.

They also have mocktails, so that was a nice option for our DDs. The tasting room is small but very comfortably appointed, and we loved the local art displayed. Highly highly recommend- what a great experience! We will be back for events for sure.

They showed us the available slabs and we fell in love with one that was super craggy and had a gaping hole. We went home with measurements to make sure it would work and contacted the company to confirm our purchase and choose an epoxy color and leg style (which is hand forged iron if I'm correctly remembering the terminology). I said I wanted purple that was opaque but not too light. Mario knew exactly what I meant! They crafted a beautiful piece that is commented on and admired by everyone (from family to handymen!) that enters our home. Mario and his brother were also able to deliver to us for a fee and setup the table where we needed it. Can definitely recommend this company and their work!

Fabulous lunch menu along with a Kids menu that the kiddos could color on which is always a plus. I ordered the half Apple Cheese Chive salad and it was fantastic. I could have eaten the full salad. When I ordered it the server asked, "Have you had this salad here before?" To which I answered no. He shared that the salad does not come with lettuce, it comes just as it says on the menu: apples, cheese, chives. Okay. It sounds delicious to me. Now I want to create this at home! Also ordered at our table: Grilled Cheese and tomato soup and Steak Frites. All were given two thumbs up! We would definitely come back here when in the area.

We were in Denver for the weekend. An old friend (maybe I should say "longtime friend") picked us…read moreup and drove us uphill to Echo Lake, which was lovely. And on our way back down we came to The Little Bear Saloon. A friend of his was in a band playing there that night. There was a $10 cover, which is fine with me, it all goes to the band/bands. We got there at 7:30 and the band started at 7:30 so there wasn't any seating in the main room, where the band was playing (obviously this is common sense but it was how our schedule worked out). Don't worry, we got a booth in the next room and it was still plenty loud. Our server was great, funny, and made sure we had our needs met. The food: ok, it is not great food. My dining companions had burgers and pizza. I opted for a Greek salad as I had eaten an entire dish of pork belly at the Denver Zoo, I'll write that review separately, and I needed something that was not greasy. The salad, it wasn't a traditional Greek salad but I did definitely appreciate it. Since the rest of the menu is rather limited and mostly pizza and burgers, I didn't know if it would be good. I'm kind of picky about lettuce. It was good though and I ate every bite, and also a slice of my daughter's pizza. The food overall was not very special and I wouldn't recommend making a trip here just for the food. But since we hadn't made a special trip here for the food I'm not taking off any points for that! It's a fun environment; the bands, the maximalist decor, the signed photos from so, so many musicians and bands that have played there over the years. Plus nearly every inch of the wood has been carved with the initials or names or messages from customers. I spent some time looking but only scratched the surface (so to speak) of exploring it all. The women's bathroom was a little bizarre, and according to the guys in my group the men's was even stranger. Everything was clean and functional so that was good. We all had a great time. My daughter bought a sweatshirt. On the train back to Omaha the conductor smiled and said "oh, the Little Bear Saloon? That's in Evergreen, right? Oh, I know that place!" He chuckled. I'm going to bet that there are a lot of people who can chuckle at their memories of the Little Bear Saloon.

The waiter was understanding, he took them away, we ordered pizzas instead, the pizzas come out, they lacked any taste.... So disappointed because every time before the food was decent, drinks were good...The Little bear is a well known... well visited place. I sure hope they can figure it out before they lose all their business!!!
