He spends plenty of time with you selecting the perfect gift or the most delicious items to take home. Parker opened the chocolates and allowed tasting before buying. Who does that?!?! I felt like I was in a speciality food shop in NYC, but was in the heart of Cherry Creek. You can stop in Whole Foods for the staples and perishables for your dinner party or holiday celebration, then go to Ambrosian Pantry for the items that will put your entertaining over the top. So glad we have this exceptional shop in our neighborhood. Thanks for all your help, Parker!

MAINLY REVIEWING SANDWICH EXPERIENCE:…read more I'm not sure what's happening to me at these fancy places close to where I live, but this sandwich at Goudy's Deli SUCKED. Yes, I get it, you have fancy bread and meats, but when you serve customers a sandwich with A VERY-HARD-TO-BITE BREAD it makes you never want to order there again. Maybe the Lord did me a favor by making me realize how pointless it is to eat out nowadays. Ordered the Club sandwich and realized I make a WAY BETTER one at home. Hey, at least I don't serve myself a sandwich with hard ass bread. Maybe I should be thankful? Note to self: don't waste money on food that hurts your teeth and roof of your mouth. Ambience? Definitely for rich, lazy people who don't know good food. Too quiet inside. Definitely NOT for cool people who have personality and are loud. Like Italians.

Kudos for featuring Mexican wines. Service: very attentive Ambiance: dark, hard to see the menu. Our table next to the kitchen kind of disappointing given that we made a reservation more than two months in advance. We were seated promptly. Overall: this place is a seriously good restaurant, but a little overrated. Falls short of five stars for me. I would come back for cocktail hour and snacks. I don't think it's worth the dinner experience given the prices, the location, the pricey entrees, the dark ambiance.

They gave us meatballs in apology which were probably the best thing we had. The table bread was very good too but everything else mediocre. Yellowtail appetizer was not quality fish. Pasta was very overpriced for what it was. I got the rock shrimp crestedish. My noodles were overcooked and mushy. How do you overcook noodles in a $40 plate at a high scale Italian restaurant. Sauce was meh, not very flavorful. My boyfriend got the spicy lobster rigatoni which was good and had fair amount of lobster but once again for the price, did not blow my mind. Overall, overrated spo

Both these pasta dishes were filling enough that we couldn't even think about dessert!! The cacio e pepe was a bit smaller than I think my husband needs but the homemade pasta was incredible! Very cozy, welcoming vibes. Didn't feel so fancy that it was stuffy but it had this energy of elegant fun. Expect to circle around a bit for parking. There's a garage nearby but we street parked a couple blocks over for free.

We tried several dishes, and our favorites were the shrimp stirfry, eggrolls, and papaya salad. We also had the mussels special, salmon, fried rice without pork sausage, chocolate cake, and tapioca pudding. Overall, the food was decent, but I felt like it was missing the depth of flavor I usually expect from Vietnamese food. A lot of the dishes could've been hotter since they mostly came out just warm. For the prices, I just don't feel like the food lived up to the cost. The ambiance is nice for a special occasion, and our waiter was great, but it's probably not somewhere I'd personally come back to. Parking is mostly street parking, so keep that in mind.

I don't know if they were just out of things or changed the salad but not the description online but it was NOTHING like the salad I have had before. There was no potatoes of any kind. Just three stale bbq potato chips on top. It didn't come with a deviled egg or bacon or anything. Just chopped up ahi tuna (not seasoned), capers, garbanzo, beans, and stale potato chips. Very disappointed. Hope they bring back the other Niçoise salad.

Opened on Saturdays during the summer months, the Fresh Market is set up in the parking lot of the mall. The Fresh Market is small but packed with great options. They have booths with produce, clothes and dainty goods, but what stands out here are the food options. We got a scone from one of the bakeries and some thick cut Belgian fries. The stand out was the matcha though. The line for Mako Matcha was noticeably long, but worth it. I got the strawberry matcha, although they did have a summer seasonal peach matcha. The matcha was outstanding. After reading their story, they source their matcha from Japan and wanted a really high quality option for Denver. So great and delicious!
