Lobster bisque featuring my handsome man
Hannah H.

Another amazing experience. We came here Friday night for our third wedding anniversary Michael was our server. Everything he recommended us, including the wines, were phenomenal Appetizers: the jumbo crab cake is delicious. The sauce it comes with compliments it very well. I could eat an entire plate of it. We also ordered a wagyu hot dish, although I don't remember the name. The ponzu sauce it comes with is slightly sweet. They marinate the steak in it and results are amazing Entree: my husband ordered their Australian strip wagyu. It melts in your mouth and cuts like butter. He added the chimichuri but says the steak doesn't need any add ons. I ordered their ribeye and added black truffle butter. The crust on the steak adds an additional depth of flavor I'm still craving. It was absolutely Devine Sides: we ordered the black truffle Mac n cheese. They use Cavatapi noodles ((the best noodle)). The truffle flavor is subtle and not overwhelming. I wish I could taste it more but my husband loved it. It is still very good Desserts: Michael gave us a chocolate mousse on the house for our anniversary. It was the perfect amount of chocolate, the chocolate shell was delicious. My husband was not huge on it. We also ordered the salted caramel crème brûlée. It was the perfect balance of sweet and salty. My husband devoured it

We were attending a concert at Fiddler's Green, so we opted for a 5 p.m. reservation, right when Shanahan's opened. I've always wanted to try Shanahan's, and our experience was amazing. First, the dining room is huge and beautifully decorated. I especially appreciated all the windows and natural light, so it doesn't have that classic dark steakhouse feel. We told our server that we needed to be finished by 6:30 p.m., and he did a terrific job keeping everything moving without ever making us feel rushed. We started with the Hamachi Sashimi and Wagyu Rib Eye Satay. Both were excellent. The wasabi caviar served with the Hamachi packed some serious heat, so be forewarned! I found it interesting that some of the most-reviewed menu items were the soups. I had the French Onion, while my nephew had the Lobster Bisque. Both were a home run, even on a hot summer day. Delish! For our entrées, we both ordered the Prime Delmonico Rib Eye. Each steak was perfectly grilled, incredibly tender and full of flavor. That steak earned applause from me. With everything else I ordered, I made the mistake of adding the massive Loaded One Pound Baked Potato. It lived up to its name, and unfortunately, I barely made a dent in it. The perfect finish was the Warm S'more Brownie. It was huge, super rich and delicious. Easily one of the best things we ordered. The next time I'm in Denver, I'm heading back to Shanahan's.

There should be no surprise that our recent family dinner here was absolute perfection. You get what you pay for at Shanahan's. We started with a zero proof mocktail and some shrimp cocktail. Yes I meant to rhyme that because they were perfectly paired. We practically inhaled the shrimp before we remembered to take a picture. Oops. Not sorry. Next came a selection from the Sunday prix fixe menu, the Berkshire pork chop, which came with two generous sides that were enough for three people to share, and still have a portion left over to take home: garlic mashed and perfectly grilled asparagus. The Colorado Red trout was unbelievable, so tasty and beautifully presented, (with a generous amount of lump crab on top-*chef's kiss*) as was the 10 oz filet. We rounded off the evening with crème brûlée, a chocolate mousse cup, and key lime pie which was chosen from the Sunday dinner menu. Service was absolutely what you would expect from a restaurant of this caliber; from a friendly hostess to Thomas our server, to the food runners and even TWO different management staff who came to check in with us, it was nothing short of incredible. We left happy that we were able to have such a dining experience. We were seated in a separate, quiet room and got an apology when we arrived that the speakers weren't working and no music would be playing but guess what? We were happy with that glitch because it meant it wouldn't be too loud. Yay! Highly recommend coming here for a special occasion or just because, if a place like this is a regular thing for you. I will be talking about Shanahan's for as long as possible.

Food is 10/10! Everything is so amazing and cooked to perfection and so full of flavor. The restaurant is large and tables are a little close together but it doesn't ruin the experience. You can't hear the convo of your neighbor which is good. I believe our serve was new because she was a little on the slow slide, didn't know how to use the crumb sweeper, messed up our check, however she was so nice! This place is romantic and a great place to celebrate special occasions. We were celebrating our anniversary and the server/ hostess didn't even ask if there was a special reason we were dining with them, which they have in the past. The table next to us was also celebrating an anniversary and they had put rose pedals on the table for them which is a really cute touch.

Learning about Shanahan's

Always a good time at Shanahan's. From the moment you enter, you know you're in for a decadent experience. You can count on the food to be the same, high quality as it always is. Starting with the jumbo gulf shrimp, I knew I was once again in for a treat. The shrimp was absolute perfection and the cocktail sauce, though a little bit heavy on the horseradish, was divine. The bread and butter for the table is always a good staple-but of course- try not to fill up on bread before the main course! I always go with the steak here, though there are other options of course. The filet was cooked to my preference of medium perfectly making the steak perfectly tender and juicy. The side options included creamed spinach and roasted garlic mashed potatoes which were also perfection and were even better the next day. A to-go box was definitely in order. The blueberry cheesecake to finish the meal was a great way to wrap it all up. Service is always great as expected. Our server definitely checked on us a few times and was so very friendly and knowledgeable. While pricey, Shanahan's is worth it!

Cocktail menu

Returned to Shanahan's for a dinner presentation in one of the smaller conference rooms. Service was excellent and timed well. Along with bread service, we were given a half portion of their Jumbo Gulf Shrimp Cocktail and a choice of salad. I selected Shanahan's salad, a tasty blend of three lettuces, English cucumbers, tomatoes, honey-smoked bacon, cranberries, strawberries, croutons, and champagne vinaigrette. Our entrée was a 4oz filet mignon with roasted garlic mashed potatoes & creamed spinach. I like my steak medium rare with a warm red center. My steak was a bit undercooked for my taste, more blue rare/rare. To finish off our meal, dessert was a slice of Colorado Clover Honey Cheesecake. It usually comes with blueberries, but due to my allergies, strawberries were substituted. Excellent meal with plenty of leftovers to bring home for another meal the next day.

This is a great place for a date night. We were in Denver for our 15th anniversary. My sister-in-law had recommended Oliver's, but my brother-in-law countered that we should switch to Shanahan's instead. I'm glad I took his advice! We had an early reservation as this was a last minute booking, and I didn't want to sit outside or at the bar. Being Sunday, we opted for the special prix fixe meal. I started with the wedge salad (chopped, per the recommendation of our server), the NY strip, and the chocolate mousse. My husband ordered the Caesar salad, the prime rib, and the cheesecake. We had an order of the asparagus and the garlic mashed potatoes for the table. The food was all excellent and abundant. Those salads were huge as appetizers (I took half home for an excellent lunch the next morning). The wedge salad had a little too much dressing, although I do love the dressing. I loved the heirloom baby tomatoes. My steak was perfection itself, and it was still delicious the next day for lunch. The sides were good. The chocolate mousse was also very tasty. My husband enjoyed all of his food. I tried some prime rib, and it was nicely tender. The wine list is pretty good. We got a 2010 Bourdeax, and it was served with all the required pomp. It was perfect for our meal. Service was excellent. The setting was very nice. I had asked for a quiet table, and that's what we got. It was a very relaxing and delicious meal.

Everything about our experience was amazing! Dirty martini was crisp and delicious, the sides were so tasty (mushrooms, green beans, and au gratin potatoes), and the Australian Wagyu was worth every penny. Our server was knowledgeable and did not rush the experience.

Perfectly cooked medium rare
Lu T.

A really good place to get steaks and drinks. Wonderful service to top it off. Let me start with saying I have visited many high end steakhouses all over the states. Most are comparable but Shanahan's is on the higher side. We ordered a couple of steak Delmonicos that came out perfectly medium rare. One of the better I have eaten in a while. The sides could be a little better. Caesar salad was overdressed. The green beans, mash potatoes, and fried calamari were good. Overall a very good experience. Highly recommend.

Tonight friends and I celebrated my retirement. I've been here before and thought it fitting since I had a great time last year here. Food wise and service wise we were impressed. The food came out as we requested as well and you definitely got plenty on your plate. They have a Sunday three course meal that was also priced right. Ernesto our server was very attentive as well. The only downside is that they stopped giving military discounts since when I last came here.

They even have their name on the steak knives!

We came here for my husband's birthday, he loves steak! Probably everyone knows this, but this is something we learned when we were at the restaurant, Mike Shanahan who was the head coach to the Broncos for many years owns this restaurant. In the restaurant you can even see a whole display case in the front with a Lombardi trophy and super bowl rings! We started off with the Wagyu Beef Carpaccio. We absolutely loved it the wagyu was so tender, a great start to the meal. I got the crab and prawns and the Tech tequila to drink. I am always a bit iffy about eating seafood in Denver since it is far from the ocean, but the seafood was very fresh! My husband got the Wagyu Rib Eye Satay. He really liked his meal. Since it was my husband's birthday they gave us a complimentary dessert. The restaurant was very clean. It reminded me of a restaurant that would be in Northern Virginia. I really liked the vibes of it, more sophisticated and elevated, everyone was dressed nicely. I think it is a great place for a special occasion, especially for men. Prices are high, but I thought the experience and food was quite memorable and it make my husband's birthday special to come here! I would definitely come back!

SIZZLING hot plates, a Prime Cowboy Bone-In Rib Eye, @Au Gratin Potatoes
Bunny G.

An unexpected treat for an unexpected night out. I cannot say enough good things about David, our server, and ALL of the staff. It felt like they went out of their way to make it a fancy night out for us even though we were not dressed or prepared for the occasion--an impromptu big life event/birthday. The lobster and crab cocktail? Delicious. The scallops? Divine, that buerre blanc was masterful. Ribeye was wonderfully well cooked, cheesy and savory potatoes au gratin. Excellent wine recommendation, and a dessert on the house for my birthday was a thoughtful touch. We will certainly be back for another lovely dinner.

Chopped Salad

The food was really good. The only thing I didn't like was that the place is so loud! The dining room is like a night club if you are into that type of atmosphere. I like things a little more calm and private if I could have it my way. But the food is amazing! Definitely the best steak I've had in town.

The best time to try some of their food items is at happy hour. We also ordered a steak each. I ordered the tenderloin while he ordered the tri-tip with the au poivre sauce, which cost extra ($9). Personally, I don't think it was worth the money. Of course, I had to order the meatballs: deliciously made and full of flavors. Wrapping the lettuce leaf and some fried shallot onions and peanuts and you have 2 rolls of stuffed lettuce with meatballs. It is a must for you to dip in their homemade nước mắm (fish sauce). And again, they are just fries, but these fried potatoes are seasoned well. I liked them, so I had to ordered them again from the last time I was there for their happy hour, which was two days ago. So...they undercooked our steaks. The tri-tip was supposed to be medium well, and the tenderloin was supposed to be medium, but both came out medium rare. And so, we asked them if they could cook the steaks a little bit more for us, which they took back to the kitchen. We waited for perhaps 5 to 10 more minutes before the steaks were present to us at our table. What we were pleasantly surprised was that they completely gave us two brand new steaks. Along with the steaks, they comped us a big bowl of whipped potatoes, which turned out really good with our steaks. My tenderloin was definitely much better tasting than my husband's tri-tip. Very tender and perfectly cooked for my tasting. I would definitely come back and will try one of their desserts, which we were told all our made in-house. The ambiance was nice: conversations stayed within each table.

The other items on the happy hour menu are also delicious, and the French dip is one of my favorite here in Denver. The steaks are also well cooked here, and the various sauce options are delicious. The Thai chile, chimmichuri, and bordelaise are must try! The sides are also great. Finally, service is quiet impeccable here. The wait staff is incredibly attentive and welcoming. Overall, cannot recommend A5 enough, especially for a special date night.

The Polpette were just as good, with beef and pork meatballs in a bright pomodoro under a blanket of Grana Padano.

Absolutely Exceptional…read more Jack's on Pearl exceeded every expectation. As Texas transplants, we've enjoyed some incredible steakhouses over the years and have traveled extensively, but this was truly one of the best dining experiences we've had. We even drove up from Colorado Springs for our 18th wedding anniversary, and it was worth every mile. We started with the wedge salad, which was fresh, crisp, and packed with flavor--easily one of the best wedge salads we've ever had. The warm bread service was incredible and paired perfectly with the house-made spreads. The mac and cheese was rich, creamy, and absolutely unforgettable. The highlight of the evening was the Wagyu steak topped with cheesy potato croquettes. It was cooked to perfection and so tender it practically melted in your mouth. Every bite was packed with incredible flavor and was one of those dishes you continue talking about long after the meal is over. What impressed us most was that every single item we ordered was exceptional. The quality of the ingredients, attention to detail, presentation, atmosphere, and service were all top-notch. After reading some of the reviews beforehand, we weren't sure what to expect. In our experience, this restaurant is incredibly underrated. Our meal, service, and overall experience were outstanding from start to finish. If you're looking for a special dinner, anniversary celebration, or simply one of the best meals you'll have in Colorado, Jack's on Pearl is absolutely worth the visit. We will definitely be back and will be recommending it to friends and family. Thank you to the entire team for making our 18th anniversary so memorable. -- Andrea & Sergio

I won't go into details, but our server disappeared for long stretches and it took a long time to finally get our entrees. This was likely because of our specific server.

I just loved the sleek, energetic upscale energy with great music and bougie lighting and pretty flower wall for pics. It seems this restaurant serves the family style sharing way. The lobster Mac n cheese and Brussel sprouts were both very large portions to be shared. I ordered the Australian waygu and it was served on a black dish to specialize delicately. All the dishes were cooked to proper temperature and really delicious. We had such a nice waiter and he did his best he could to celebrate my birthday dinner. He was very friendly and knowledgeable. When he surprised me with a birthday board, I was wowed and very impressed. I liked my presentation tonight and can highly recommend coming here for special occasions. Thank you for providing excellent food for great memories.
