After reading other reviews and checking out photos beforehand, I knew the Colorado lamb was a must-order. It's not something I usually go for, but it ended up being my favorite dish of the night. Absolutely worth the hype. We also ordered the birria short rib and hickory smoked picanha, and both were solid choices. The shrimp and corn grits were amazing, and I really loved the aged cheddar mac and cheese. Other dishes like the chickpea croquettes and the chili relleno were also pretty good and rounded out the meal nicely. The wait staff was fantastic. Super friendly, attentive, and made the whole experience even better. The restaurant itself has a cool, lively vibe. The only minor downside was that the outdoor heaters were a bit too hot, but that's a very small nitpick. Overall, an easy 5 out of 5 stars. Great food, great service, and a place I'd happily come back to.

The lamb was excellent, but the sweet mashed potatoes absolutely stole the show and easily the best thing we ate all night. Everything was well prepared and flavorful. For an appetizer, two meats, two sides, and dessert, our total came out to $88, which felt like a great value for the quality. Overall, it left a really good impression and we'd definitely come back again.

I can't recommend the cinnamon roll enough. It's definitely one of the better c-rolls I've ever had. Pair that with its low price point and it is a MUST ORDER! The Chicken Fried Steak with brown gravy is as advertised, it didn't blow me away, but it did satiate my appetite. And again, paired with its relatively low price point I was a happy lil eater. If you're in the area of a Butcher Block Cafe trust Reddit, or me, and go!

The space feels very Root Down in the best way. Funky, artsy, a little mid century, but still comfortable and not trying too hard. Then the food starts showing up and suddenly the whole table is passing plates around because everyone keeps saying "wait, try this." We ordered a bunch of things and the smoked carrots were probably the biggest surprise for me. I would absolutely go back just to eat those again. The masa birria, diver scallops, and grilled artichokes and asparagus were all great too. The hanger steak was cooked perfectly and came with duck fat potatoes, which immediately puts me in a good mood. Dessert also fully delivered. The banana cream pie with black sesame whip was one of those desserts where you keep going back for another bite even when you're already full. It just felt like a really thoughtful meal from start to finish. Definitely one of my favorite dinners I've had in a while.

If you're stuck between pasta and pizza - you need to order the pepperoni and hot honey pizza. I ordered the cavatelli alla vodak my first time here - and while it was great - the pizza is the best thing on the menu. That said, if you're in the pasta mood, go for the ricotta dumplings. The meatballs are a big ticket item on the menu, and while they were good, you should stick the the pizza because it's some of the best in Denver.

We started with a bottle of wine for the table and I couldn't stray too far from my previous order it was all so good! We ordered the white pizza for the table and added prosciutto, which pairs perfectly with the house made hot sauce that comes with this pizza. A must get. I ordered the alla vodka which was exactly as good as the first time, rich in flavor and has nice textural variation through the dish with the breadcrumbs and stracciatella. We also ordered the meatballs which were incredible! They were not dry at all, had the perfect amount of spice, and the brown butter polenta was absolutely perfect. Will definitely be ordering these next time. We finished off the meal with the cheesecake with olive oil and sea salt which was surprisingly light and fluffy. Overall another wonderful dinner service and I'm very excited to return.

Writing this is honestly making me crave the pâté again. The only thing I'd change is the bread was a little less toasted and not burnt. Overall, highly recommend. So delicious it is a definitely a spot we'll be back to soon.

We got the Cure farm spicy green salad - the vinaigrette was absolutely delicious. The dates added a nice sweet touch to the whole dish. Perfect start to the meal Rigatoni alla vodka - the sauce was terrific and the rigatoni was well-made The grilled bison (but vegetarian - with the trumpet mushrooms) - the sauce and spice rub on the mushrooms were good but the mushroom hadn't absorbed the flavors very well. Our drinks were the '23 Tyler pinot noir (recommended pairing with the third course) and the FIG-gure-it-out cocktail. Both were smooth and the cocktail was well-made. I was expecting it to be less sweet but it was delicious nevertheless. Our server was wonderful and was very accommodating of our dietary restrictions.

We thankfully got sat quickly without a reservation. The inside is nice and ambient lighting. It also has an indoor/outdoor bar which I'm sure is great in the summer. I mainly came here because I knew they had tomato basil soup and I was having a strong craving. To start I got the queso fundido because of a place has it on the menu, I must try. I asked if it could be done without meat and our server said no - that it was premade. Honestly, this was just okay queso. Definitely not authentic or anything like actual queso fundido. Would not order again. The soup was good! Not the best I've ever had but definitely good. The only thing was we ordered a soup but didn't specify and got the small size. I would specify a bowl if you want a meal sized portion. The grilled cheese that came with it was tasty! The chicken Caesar wrap was fine. Portion is sorta small but glad it comes with a side. Nothing too special. Overall the place is nice, staff is friendly and food is fine. I wouldn't particularly want to return but if a friend suggested, I'd give it another shot.

It took me so long to write this review because the words to describe the experience my partner and…read moreI had here simply couldn't be processed on short notice. Let me start off by saying this is officially my girlfriend and my favorite new restaurant in Colorado -- and that's not something taken lightly. Wildflower perfectly balances the regions of Northern and Southern Italy with Spanish undertones throughout every dish, all while being prepared, presented, and served in a very classically French manner. Not a single bite we had was lacking anything. Every layer of flavor, every texture, every smell perfectly played on your palate like a maestro constructing a symphony. Our server Jackie did an amazing job timing and pairing courses in a way that never felt rushed or overbearing. She has a wonderful personality and is incredibly knowledgeable. It is very obvious to me (as someone who worked in the industry for 13+ years) that this isn't just a job for her, but a chance to express herself through great service and passion. I cannot -- and I mean CANNOT -- recommend this restaurant enough. I am already planning our next visit and I can't wait. Book a reservation now so you can brag about going here before they get their Michelin star. P.S. The honey semifreddo dessert and the cocktail "The Choice Society" are an unmatched combination.

I had a great experience with my girls here. I don't think there was anything that I didn't enjoy!…read more We started with Bread and ButterBear, Burrata, Seremoni Rockfish Crudo, Waygu TarTare. We then had the Crab Tagliatelle, Ricotta Agnolotti and Lamb Shank. For dessert, we had the Carolina Gold Rice Pudding and BearPop. The ButterBear was super cute and tasty. The bread was super soft! The Burrata was surprising with the chili crunch. It paired really well! The crudo was tasty as was the tartare. I really enjoyed the crispy Cheddar Crisps. The tangy, salty cheese from the crisp cut the fat from the tartare well. The pastas were both good. I could probably have eaten an entire serving of the Crab Tagliatelle myself, haha. I thought it was really yummy. I think my favorite part of the meal was dessert. The Rice Pudding was so good! The coconut milk, the miso caramel popped sorghum, and the rhubarb compote were such a lovely combination on the rice pudding. I want to go back just for that dessert! The BearPop was also delightfully refreshing! The passionfruit paired super well with the Black Garlic Salsa Macha. Sweet and salty is timeless. Service was wonderful! I would definitely come back!

We were super impressed overall! We loved everything…read more The burrata had a chili crunch, which was such a different combo for me, but it was truly delicious. The crab tagliatelle was good but for me it was a little too fishy, even though I love crab. The ricotta Agnolotti was my favorite! Perfectly balanced and rich at the same time. The bread and butter was delicious. The butter is seasonal; this time it was garlic and I could not complain. The Wagyu tartare was fresh and the cheddar crisps made it the perfect pairing. The rockfresh Crudo was good, but for me it was a little too acidic. We really loved the lamb shank. It was fall off the bone and had a beautiful fava hummus sauce with it. Service was phenomenal. The cocktails were also really good, but I loved the Pinot Noir! And I'm not even a big fan of Pinot Noir. It's a pretty unique one that taste more like a cab franc. The ambience is really welcoming and the lighting is perfect. A little dark where it needs to be but perfectly lit tables. We will be back!

The seating was comfortable and in spite of an open kitchen, the staff was quiet and professional. The attentive servers were extremely informative of all the dishes and beverages. We were fortunate to meet and be served by the GM who clearly has a passion for creating a full-circle dining experience. We learned where the ingredients were sourced and grown and nuances of preparations down to the smallest of the honey butter served with mouth-watering sourdough bread.
