I can't imagine what the last 2 reviewers are talking about. I have been going to Armando's for 4+ years and recently go almost every week for take-out pizza which beats any chain pizza - hands down! I have got to know the staff personally and they LOVE working there. Sometimes the owner talks loudly to the wait staff (in typical Italian fashion) so they know they have food ready to deliver but is NEVER NEVER rude! There is NO WAY Armando's substitutes pork for veal. (think "stupid" spells "SUBSTITUTES" incorrectly on purpose?!? probably not) The place is packed with return customers on weekends...can all those people keep coming back for bad food? This place is absolutely wonderful...don't believe otherwise until you try it for yourself. You'll become a frequent customer too!
Pros: Consistently GREAT food - reasonably priced
Cons: Weekends get pretty crowded

Having lived in Colorado Springs for a decade and having to suffer years of "Cowboys" (now closed - long overdue), Stampede is what a Country & Western club SHOULD be.
Having a restaurant upstairs is nice, but what it really does for Stampede is give it a 2-story ceiling - meaning it feels open, bright, and smoke free. Plus having an outdoor deck adds another option for those needing fresh air.
The music selection is diverse, and unlike the aforementioned club in CS, which just loops the same songs night after week after month after year, the DJ at Stampede selects something different every song, every night (where else are you going to hear Suzie Boggus' "Eat at Joe's"??).
The crowd is diverse, friendly, easy going.
Personally, I prefer Stampede to Grizzly Rose, but the Rose has its pros and cons too.
Wish we had a C&W club in Vegas (Gilley's got imploded, and Stoney's, though nice, is too far off the strip and none of the regulars from Gilley's followed over to Stoney's, plus Vegas is simply NOT a C&W club city).
Pros: high ceiling makes for smoke free open atmosphere
Cons: can be slow during the summer as Denver is an outdoor community, folks hiking, camping not going to clubs

YumYum TumTum! My co-workers and I often visit this authentic Thai restaurant for lunch, as well as dinner. The flavors are exquisite, meaning the use of the various spices accentuate and differentiate each dish to it's utmost potential. For example, the various hints of sweetness used from the coconut enjoyed in the yellow, red and green curries to the tartness (sour and spicy) of the tamarind seen in the seafood soup Thom Yum to the savory taste of basil experienced in the stir fry dish Pad Kra Pao are expertly prepared. The vegetables always have the right amount of crispness (not being overdone) as well as the noodle dishes being cooked to the right firmness. The Pad Thai and Pad Si Yew are some of my favorite noodle dishes in town and my co-workers rave that Thai Flavor's Thai Fried Rice is the best they've ever had. As a matter of fact, my place of work has had Thai Flavor catered twice the past year (for a group of about 70 people) with much success and many positive accolades being thrown about. Needless to say, we enjoy this place.
Just a quick comment on the review by chefsammy, it makes no sense to me. The service has always
been cordial, friendly and polite to my friends and I and we've even gotten to meet the mom chef that makes this place special and also want to say thanks to the others in the kitchen that help make it that way. The hostess is especially nice, and even with her being so busy at times, always tends to us and our needs. In reference to chefsammy, I would think the hostess' husband would be a very happy happy man and I also find her ways quite charming. Anyway the service is always excellent. : )
One last thing, I love the fried bananas dripped with a sweet syrup and can't wait to try the coconut ice cream my friends say is so yummy. Thai Flavor is a great place to try authentic thai food! : )
Pros: Taste, Service, Affordablity
Cons: Nada

I went there for lunch. It's worth every penny! The test is excellent, foods are fresh, and the place is in good hygiene. In addition, I don't have to wait for too long to get foods. The waitress and staffs are polite. And, the price is reasonable.
All in all, this reataurant will change your mind-set that a good japanese reataurant doesn't have to be freaking expensive!

This mexican restaurant just outside of denver was probably the best I've found in Colorado. Great spice to all the dishes I have tried and delicious margs. The service was decent, although, they couldn't keep up with how quickly I was downing the chips and salsa! That's probably not their fault!
I recommend this to everyone, they always like it too.
It's a little bit of a drive for those of us downtown, but well worth it!
Pros: everything
Cons: What are the drawbacks?

We have been eating there for over ten years and have never had a bad meal. The Pollo Magnifico is great and the spanish rice is the best. Great service and lots of seating and some of the staff has been there as long as we have been eating there. I just wish they would bring back the Mariachi band.
Pros: lots of food for low price,fast seating, great service
Cons: parking
