My new husband and I had our wedding reception here and it was wonderful. maggianos has seperate banquet rooms and we had the Calabria room with it's own antique bar and beautiful crystal chandeliers. Guests raved about the food and the service was outstanding. We had one guest notify ahead about a gluten allergy and they were easily accomidated. The chef came out to talk to her personally about menu options he could present her with. In addition, last minute we found out we had a guest who was Vegan. Once again, the chef came out to discuss options with him and easily accomidated him. They added candlles and decorations to supplement where we we lacking with no additional charge. They accomidated my request to bring in an outside vendor for wedding cupcakes, and set up and broke down everything without a single extra charge. Because guests were having so much fun mingling during the cocktail hour, they extended it until I told them to proceed with serving dinner, no problem at all! The food was served piping hot, never ran out and even the bar never ran dry despite a large number of heavy drinking young guests. Planning was a breeze as they were always quick to return phone calls and emails, generally within hours. The reception was really the easiest most stress free part of the whole wedding. Can't beat them in terms of pricing either. No site fee, just a food and beverage minimum that was easily met bu the number of guests alone. Just under $61 per person covered an appatizer/ cocktail hour, two kinds of salads, bread, a pasta course with two kinds of pasta, 2 entrees, two side dishes, coffee, tea, sodas, 4 hour premium open bar and all of this was all you can eat and drink. They even let us substitute our favorite liquors/ beers without extra charge for what was on their usual premium bar list. Maggianos delivered far above and beyond what I expected and I would not hesitate to send anyone there for a wonderful extremely memorable wedding reception that won't break the bank.
Pros: amazing customer service
Cons: none

I love going here, they have the best Chili Rellenos in town!!! The nice crispy ones, not the soggy tasteless ones you find in a lot of places. I love their salsa and chips that everyone gets to start the meals!!! And they also make a mean Strawberry Daqueri

The food is always fresh, good tasting, with plenty of options in building a burrito and a good variety of hot sauces. Keep this mind, it is clean. You go to other Mexican places in Denver and the places are not as clean, the food handlers at times handle money, and the kitchens are hidden for good reason. The prices here are reasonable and service is great. I've given up on the corner Mexican restaurant and stay with Chipotle.
Pros: fresh ingredients, variety of selection, clean

My girlfriend and I recently had a great dinner at the Keg. We were immediately sat and had a great time from beginning to end. Our server was very helpful and kind. We asked to speak to a manager, just to say keep up the good work and he bought one of our appetizers for us. Even though we only called him over to let him know job well done, it is cool that they appreciated the kind words. As for value, you can't beat this place for a downtown steakhouse. We had three bar drinks, two apps, split a salad, had a filet and prime rib and split a dessert and our bill still wasn't at $100.00. Talk about being worth the price!!! After we left our server a 30% tip we were again thanked for our patronage on our way out by the hostess staff. What an incredible restaurant. I have already made plans to have dinner here for one of my best friends bachelor party I highly recommend this place and I will keep going back!!!
Pros: Food, Atmosphere, Staff
Cons: Just having to drive downtown...but its worth it!!!

Late for our reservations at the Denver Chophouse, my wife and I found Ruth's by default as it's great location to the hearth of the downtown area, Larimer Sq. and the 16th street mall. Vallet parking on their busy street is a blessing, and if your looking for downtown fun after dinner, ask the vallet to leave your car there (if your not planning to be out until after close). Tracy has says the Crab or Lobster Bisque is by far the best soup she's ever had, we both agree the salads are superb with freshness and quality in every ingredient used and the fillets rival any we've ever had. By far the best in Denver, leaps over Morton's (also in Denver). Since our first time we've returned many times, now counting 11 (we really, really enjoy the entire dinner). I'm not huge on wine or think I know enough to say they have a 'limited selection' -- however "Flight #8" is quite tasty and enjoyable from the bread thru the steak course. If your interested in a truely fine Ruth's experience, I recommend calling in the AM of that day, and explaining you're interested in having a truely great dinner, and you would like a booth with Ryan if at all possible. Calling ahead and requesting a booth will put you in a truely great seat for a really good dinner. Ryan is by far one of Ruth's best waiters as his knowledge of the menu, wine pairing and attentiveness to your needs throughout the night will truely make it a good experience. I've not always stuck with Ryan and twice, the food has always been truely superb but I find the waiter very lacking. And not requesting a booth one time stuck us at a tiny table near the bar area with a bad waiter... At least the food was great as always. So to ensure you're Ruth's visit is the best, call ahead, request a booth, and ask for Ryan -- if he's not working, tell them you're looking for one of their better waiters, they do have bad ones :( -- My wife and I always spend $200 for the food, drinks & wine (n/i tip or vallet).
Pros: Salads, Fillets, Lobster Bisque, Garlic Mashed, Ryan, Booth and Vallet
Cons: If you dont request a good waiter, you may get a bad one.

I love Cheesecake Factory. I have eaten there many times. Yes there are long waits sometimes, but it is because it is a great restaurant. All their food is good, drinks are wonderful and I still have not had a cheesecake I did not enjoy there. The atmosphere is great as well. They usually are very busy and again it is because it is a great place to go. My company has had several company parties there and it was wonderful. I have celebrated my daughters birthdays there as well as my own. Nothing bad to say. When I have company come from out of town that is the first place I take them. It is great.
Pros: Great place to celebrate

Alright, I love asian food and I especially love decent asian food. I am sick of all the people complaining about how its not chinese enough. If you what real chinnese, you better move to San Fran or hop on a plane to China so get over the fact that its not 100% chinese. Stupid americans think because they once went to a REAL chinese restaruant, they know the real deal. Are you serious? PF should be praised for trying to create new dishes while keeping the old at a high level of taste. Last time I checked, old mom and pa were making the same old chop suey in the back and never tried something new. I can honestly say, I've never had this dish before when i choose an item from PF's menu. Besides who wants 100% chinese food any ways? Have some you ever eaten it? Pretty freaking scary is what it is. After reading this novel, you are probably wondering what gives me the right to say anything. Well, I am a half Thai american who recently went to thailand and thought the some of the 100% real thai food was pretty gross. Maggets, Toads, crochroachs arent my style so I am sticking to the American version of the menu. Besides I'm for saving sharks, no shark fins for me please. Opps, I guess I dont enjoy 100% chinese food!
Pros: Food, Layout, Class
Cons: Prices are a little steep
