This was my third visit, and disappointed for the final time. Reluctantly came in about 8:30 PM after Concert in the Park (no other options). 3 to 4 tables of people... not busy at all. We sat ourselves and waited 10-15 min before the waitress finally took our drink order and so we went ahead and placed our food order knowing we would likely wait even longer. Ordered a round of drinks for four and two orders of buffalo wings. Once food arrived from kitchen staff, we saw our waitress only when she delivered our check an hour later. We ate our buffalo wings on the napkins I retrieved from the bar top. Again, there were only 3 to 4 tables. Just want ONE place in Monument that offers great service and atmosphere.

You can pay $15 for the hour of pinball and other classic games like the original super Mario, and then there's also games you can play for a dollar per token in the second room, which opens up to the beautiful patio! The man there today named Tim was so so kind and let the kids play at will, and me and my friend enjoyed a beer while they ran around. It was a perfect Wednesday afternoon trip and we will totally be back! Today was more of a kid focused event, but my hubby and I are huge on whiskey and the selection here was insane so we will definitely be back for a date night! I asked the gentleman and he said they don't do live music there, but man what a lovely patio if they did! I checked out the menu and it was mostly bar snacks and nobody in our group was hungry so that will definitely have to be something we try next time also! Very clean bathrooms, overall very clean facility and super super friendly service:) 10000% can't wait to go back!

Across all my visits, I have had to stop back to the bar to order a drink refill 90% of the time. I don't understand why the bartenders don't capitalize on the opportunity to provide actual service. The receipt DOES include suggested tips based on % of total order (including game spending). The tip options should be updated: 1) brought you drinks, brought you food, checked-in to make your experience best. 2) checked on you a couple times, hope it was enjoyable. 3) somewhere between decent and nonexistent. 4) only when you came and asked. The back room pinball machines were moved from the original wall to a different wall. There are fluorescent lights directly above the machines on the new wall, creating glares across the game surface. I have mentioned it a couple times, with no adjustments made yet (been a couple months already). Most recently the guy with beard said "oh yeah" and walked away, never to be seen again until I went to settle my tab later. I wonder if he was interested in which tip option I was going to choose!? Besides his "oh yeah" and pouring my only drink, he never asked if I wanted anything else - I did.

We've always found the service to be friendly and reliable, which is why this visit was such a letdown. According to our receipt, our server was "Cinnamon L." We have a few dietary needs that have never been an issue here before, but this time the requests seemed to be met with visible frustration. After we left, we also noticed that we'd been charged adult prices for our son's meal. Unfortunately, this experience has made us hesitant to return anytime soon.

Additionally we mentioned a few times that we dont eat meat and got a vegiterian dish but it came with meat even after double checking it wouldn't (apparently it was a misclick on the order screen from the server). The rest of it seemed like it was in a hurry too. The cheese wasnt melted and it seemed thrown together. The chips and salsa were decent. Their Pico was good but the other sauce seemed like straight up just tomato sauce and the spicy green sauce was more spice than flavor. They all come free though and the chips were good so we appreciated it. The staff was nice and for the amount of tables one person had, they were pretty quick. The atmosphere was good with standard Mexican blankets, instruments, etc. They had a few yard glasses (the really long ones with a rounded bottom) which is interesting since those dont have much to do with mexico but they are cool anyway so it still adds to the atmosphere. Overall a bit of a disappointment on my end.

The patio is beautiful with rattan swing chairs and plenty of table seating. We sat at the bar. I feel terrible I can't remember the bartenders name, however, she was excellent, very attentive. We were indecisive on drinks so our bartender gave us a couple of samples. They have some cocktails such as margaritas and mules on tap. I've never heard of that so we tried a couple of on tap drinks however we preferred the bartender made cocktails instead. On tap was very sweet. We only ordered drinks so I cannot comment on the food, however, our drinks were very good. I am particular about how martinis are served and she made a perfect martini, icy cold and to the rim. We enjoyed The Aviator and will stop in again next time we are in town.

My husband is partial to the prime rib sandwich and lobster Mac and cheese. We never have room for dessert which is a shame because they look amazing. Lastly, I am allergic to peanuts and I have never had any issues when modifying my order - not one mistake ever!

My wife has eaten there before and really enjoyed the sandwich she got so this is no knock on their food. Just a note that if you're going there in the future, looking for gluten-free items, they don't truly have a gluten-free menu. It's more like gluten friendly.

The customer service at this place is lacking, disappointing, underwhelming to say the least…read more Called and scheduled a reservation for my husband and I we got there early so we knew there was a chance we would have to sit at the bar and wait. We had no issue doing that even though there were five open tables. At two minutes before our reservation, we are still sitting at the bar waiting. We hear one of the hostess walk by and say hey A nine top just walked in. I'm seating them and assigning them to... as my husband, a two top, and I still sit there with numerous open tables. When I go to address this with the hostesses. I am told that my table is not ready and when it is, they will let me know, but they don't know how long it's going to be. When I asked why I couldn't have one of the OpenTable tables. I was told that those weren't my table or the fact that the table that's been open since I got there was close to the door so they figured I wouldn't want to sit there. No one asked if I would sit there no one checked with me about a table just because of its location. My husband and I would've been fine with the table by the door. Both hostesses gave me attitude and were rude. While we were sitting at the bar waiting, we were chitchatting with another couple that was at the bar waiting. Someone had brought up a shot called fire and ice. We were just discussing different kinds of alcohol and drinks. The owner walks up with a stuck up attitude and says I know we don't have the stuff to make that here. We don't do shots like that here. We don't do things like Jager bombs or anything else of that. Which we weren't interested in, but apparently she thought that we were. She was very stuck up almost like she was too good for us to be at her restaurant. Now keep in mind, we are very nicely, dressed, and me and my husband make really good money. I guess because we were talking about shots she just assumed we were looking for a party as if we were on spring break and decided to let us know that they do not carry those types of liquor.. the other couple as well as ourselves, looked at each other and could not believe that she would talk to customers in that manner. It just came with a cross very pretentious.. I absolutely love Woodland Park. This place is home away from home every time I'm here. I'm so excited to go eat at all the local places and do lots of shopping. But this place has officially been taken off our list of places to visit. I just don't think there's any reason to be rude to your customers or make them wait when you have open tables. It almost feels like getting put at The Bar. Is there a way of trying to make more money so that we'll sit in order drinks while we wait.

Wow. Not sure how to describe our recent visit…read more The food was great as always but we'll have to see if the pic can show the difference between our orders from the last time we ordered the lettuce tacos. We were there on a Saturday and the service was very very slow. Our server had a definite attitude and wasn't friendly. He took our beverage order and brought us our ice cold beers and didn't come back for over ten minutes to take our order. We asked for more salsa and he brought more back and he asked if we wanted more chips. In the time between reviews, we have visited the restaurant at least four-five times and have recommended to friends and family. Each time we knew we would be charged for the extra salsa and never have been charged for chips too! What made this visit even worse was he brought the tacos out with maybe two slices of red onion for three tacos. We asked for more garnish and he brought us a bowl and preceded to charge us $2.00? Yikes. Anyways not sure if and when we will go back. Service is half the experience and we have never had this issue when the owners are in the restaurant. Hope they fix the issue soon as there is another local restaurant that has had issues and their scores on yelp keep dropping...
