    Kale salad
    Terry M.

    We had late reservations so a part of this relatively mediocre experience could be attributed to that. The food is good, not necessarily great--decent portions, above average taste. The lamb shanks, kale salad, and burger were good (except for the cool fries). The server was nice, but seemed annoyed by questions, possibly because we asked quite a few and it was late. So if the food was good, the service was good, and the ambiance was good, why 3 stars??? Because at the prices for the meal, the food should have been awesome and the service friendly and helpful. If you're staying at the Halycon and want a decent meal at a heavy price, it's a good enough spot. But just that.

    The service was great and the drinks were strong. Best espresso martini everrr!! Everyone enjoyed their food. They could have turned up the volume on the music to drown out all the baby screaming and the tables were wobbly but otherwise, a good time was had by all. Parking is rough but there is valet. Make sure you pay in the app if you park on the street. Cherry creek does not play when it comes to their paid parking spots. The chicken spatzel wasn't very flavorful on its own and the sauce was incredibly rich with chunks of hard boiled egg in it. The breakfast burritos were large, could definitely be shared. The burger was fine - everything was alright - but not spectacular. A little salt would have helped every dish. The ambiance was a little over sold online and the menu appears to change frequently.

    Cinnamon Roll

    This was attached to the hotel we were staying at so it was super convenient to go down there in the morning. I cannot believe how amazing the food was. We had fresh green juice, short rib hash, Croque Madame, and a cinnamon roll. Every bite was exceptional! The staff was wonderful.

    Been here twice for brunch with the girls, and both times were amazing! I've tried the Croque Madame and the Short Rib Hash. Both were packed with flavor and absolutely delicious. The crispy, potatoey potatoes deserve their own shoutout. I love that they have a live DJ on Sundays, it's such a vibe! The space is beautifully decorated and perfect for bigger groups or celebrations. The bathroom is located on the lower floor (just a heads-up). Plenty of street parking nearby, both free and paid. Service was lovely. It was super friendly and attentive from start to finish. Definitely one of my favorite brunch spots in town!

    Hamachi Crudo
    Jeremy L.

    Visiting Denver from the Bay Area, I wasn't sure what to expect from Local Jones in Cherry Creek besides pricey upscale food, but my partner and I ended up having a great experience. We stopped in around 6PM for a quick bite before a movie, and even though the dining room was quiet, the two servers on the floor were kind, attentive, and incredibly accommodating. We let them know right away that we were on a time crunch, and they didn't miss a beat--drinks, food, and check all came smoothly without ever feeling rushed. We decided to keep it light and share two dishes: the hamachi crudo and the Sunday special French dip. The hamachi crudo was exactly what I expected--small but fresh, with bright citrusy notes that made for a refreshing start. The French dip, on the other hand, surprised me. I've never had one before, but this was rich, meaty, and moist, with soft bread that held everything together perfectly. The kitchen even split the sandwich for us on separate plates, each with a generous portion of fries--a thoughtful touch that didn't go unnoticed. We were in and out in under an hour. Yes, it's a bit on the pricey side, but that's to be expected from the Cherry Creek dining experience, and honestly, the attentive service and upscale atmosphere made it feel worth it. For a spontaneous stop, this ended up being one of the highlights of our evening. I'd absolutely come back the next time I'm in town.

    Chocolate Hazelnut Cheesecake
    Sunnie W.

    Came in, dined alone at the bar indoors & the bartenders/servers were super accommodating and friendly to all guests at the bar. (: Helped me choose between things I was considering for food and constantly refilled my glass. It has a chill, chic vibe; contemporary design, dark lighting. Salmon: 4.5/5, the salmon fillet tasted fresh and wasn't too salty which I usually have an issue with. It was complemented with blended couscous, apples, mangos and bacon. The bacon was a little too much for me, but it was all good and had a nice texture, taste and contrast. (I think it came within 10-15 mins but I wasn't keeping track) Cheesecake: 3/5, I was pretty full after the salmon but wanted some dessert so I got their cheesecake to go. It's too sweet for my liking, the hazelnut bites are great but it overall was too much for me. Arrived within 2-5 mins of ordering.

    To start our journey to Andrea Boccelli concert
    Terry K.

    Best Caesar Salad IMHO almost ever! (And ever is a strong word). Here is my story! Looking for a place to eat before our concert we end up at Local Jones. Local Jones is located in the Halcyon Hotel in Cherry Creek. What a great choice. (Caesar Salad) We ordered a few dishes (Caesar Salad) which were all very tasty and served to perfection. The LJ Burger was great! My travel partner and I shared each dish and turns out to be a smart idea as portions were huge They dinner and breakfast menu is extensive and looked enticing and that said, you know I will go back.... We sat at the bar and our bartender/server was just the best. The bar area is partially opened to the outside / streetside... They do have a dining area inside which ( cannot comment on as I didn't dine in the dining room) Hah Hou

    I came to Local Jones for breakfast and was very happy. It has all my favorites to fuel up my day. The sausage was delicious and they offered crusty bread, which is my absolute favorite type of bread, especially with a little butter and jam. The space is beautiful and comfortable. I really can't ask for anything more to start the day. Casual. Good service. Please come and create your own adventure.

    Turkey club

    We had a festive birthday lunch and enjoyed the red pepper hummus, chicken/lentil soup, chicken schnitzel, proper French dip and turkey club. All were delicious but the hummus, French dip and the schnitzel were the stars of the show! Service was nothing exceptional but loved the atmosphere and the vibe, will definitely be back!

    Nicole G.

    I appreciated being able to order grilled cheese and tomato soup for the kid, which was not on the menu. The Cobb salad and omelet were good, standard. The tyme drink was delicious. Service was kinda slow, but luckily we weren't in a rush.

    Spring tea platter
    Lauren A.

    Have been here several times for spring tea, lunch after the rooftop pool, and dinner. All are great options! They also do a holiday tea as well. Great ambiance and service most of the time. Definitely recommend

    Gabrielle W.

    We had a really great brunch here on Christmas day! The staff was awesome and the food was very good, paired with espresso martinis! The ambiance of the restaurant is also very pretty, sleek, and clean. Prices are on the higher side (ie: $19-$20 espresso martinis) Total meal was $80 without tip for 2 dishes and 2 drinks. I love that they have traditional seating but also couch seating and a bar area too with a few TVs. There's street paid parking nearby. They also allow dogs (saw quite a few this day). Not sure if that was a holiday thing or a regular thing. I'd recommend this place in Denver!

I do eat here fairly often, and I can't quite tell you why it is not a 5*, but it's not quite there for me.

Narrative lives up to its name for book club purposes, even if the bookcases turn out to be wallpaper on closer inspection.

The pork belly sliders read more as pulled pork, tender with the meat, with just a hint of slaw. Olives and almonds rounded out our spread, and were delightful, if a little pricey.

This place has that classic sports bar energy you hope for... TVs everywhere, a lively crowd, and the kind of atmosphere where you can kick back and enjoy a solid burger. If you're a burger fan, be warned--the menu is loaded. It actually took a minute to land on a decision because there are so many creative options. I went with the Burger in a Bowl and added blue cheese. Now let's talk about that... They don't do the "light sprinkle" thing here. They pile it on, and as someone who appreciates bold flavor, I was all in. The burger itself was cooked well and had great flavor throughout. It comes with steak fries, and I specifically asked for them well done... unfortunately, they didn't quite hit that crispy finish I was hoping for. Not a deal breaker, but worth noting. Service was okay--nothing negative, just not overly engaging or memorable. Kind of a "take your order and keep it moving" vibe. That said, the overall experience was strong. Between the atmosphere, the variety on the menu, and a really solid burger, this is absolutely a place I'd come back to if I lived nearby. Pro Tip: If you're a blue cheese fan, don't hesitate--they go big with it here. Final Verdict: Great spot for burgers and a laid-back sports bar experience. A little more attention to fries and service would push this into 5-star territory.

Everyone enjoyed their food and for the most part, the wine choices were on point as well. The one drawback I would say was our service was not the most attentive. Our server also did not know much about the wine choices, but having had very different experiences at other restaurants I think this may have been a one off situation.
