DJ was too loud, was surprised to see them there. They felt out of place, or made us feel out of place.

This was a good place for a good meal before the Candlelight concert at Kirk of Highland. The staff were friendly and attentive. Our burgers were very good. The atmosphere was a friendly bar with sports on TVs. Service was very good, we had no delays. They correctly modified my margaritas when it was too tart for me.

This is our favorite sports bar/restaurant to watch sports events at! Food and service are excellent and last night I was particularly impressed when the GM came to our table, asked for me by name, then went on to say he noticed that every time there was an Avs game, I had a reservation, and he wanted to thank me/us for our loyalty by comping our appetizer and desserts that night. Love that HT&P are tracking who their loyal customers are, then rewarding our loyalty. Impressive!

We went for the Avs game because they have great food and a lot of TVs. Unfortunately the noise level of the TVs was so loud that there was no ability to even talk to the other people at a table of 4. It was completely unnecessary to have the volume up that high. It made the game and experience pretty terrible and we ended up leaving after the second period. We certainly had planned to be there the entire game. It seemed as if during the period breaks they actually turned up the music (which was very aggressive heavy metal which certainly has a time and place, but maybe not then). It won’t stop me from coming back as the burgers are awesome, but I won’t go back for a game.

We did denver restaurant week so the deal was good but i looked at the regular menu and seems overpriced for quality. we got charged a 20% service fee which i would understand for a larger group like we were but this wasn’t apart of our tip, that part underlined with a smiley face next to it lol. i’ve never seen that before. food was mid honestly. half my burger was pink and the other half wasn’t which gave me the ick. won’t be returning unfortunately. waitress forgot my wings and was kinda awkward and pushy about ordering right away
