Great place for a Sunday brunch. Visiting family and friends in Denver and was recommended to this cute place. We were there early, just before it was open and had no issue finding street parking, but it did get pretty busy as the day went in. Food is delicious, and the service was attentive and excellent.
Started with lettuce wrap with chicken and grilled shishido pepper. For entree, I had the steak and eggs, wasn’t all that hungry, but I ate everything because the steak was made to perfection. Super tender (medium rare) and testy.
I highly recommend this place and would definitely come again when I am in Denver.

My favorite Caesar in Denver, I crave it all the time. & my favorite restaurant in Wash Park area to go before or after walking the park. You can’t go wrong with any of the menu items, my whole group was apart of the clean plate club after our meal here. Best patio where the sun is always favored. I have the same server every time and he hustles and is some of the best service from restaurants in our modern day. Great neighborhood spot!

The food here is O.U.T.S.T.A.N.D.I.N.G. LOVED kicking things off with these smoked oysters. The Colorado bison short ribs are legit fall off the bone, no knife needed perfect. The Colorado lamb pork chops with pesto were absolutely delicious.
The slow roasted duck confit tagliatelle physically made my toes curl. Great balance of citrus, sauce, and texture. The housemade chips for the ahi tuna poke was such a nice touch. The saltiness of the chips paired nicely with the super fresh ahi.
And of course, our server Diana was such a sweetheart! She was so nice. We literally had her offer to take our 6-month old on a walk around the restaurant for a few minutes so we could eat. WHAT. SERVICE!!! Clearly a great family run joint.

Great meal at this longtime fave spot in wash park. Creative cocktails (try the Deep Claw if you are partial to the classic Long Island iced tea) and wonderfully prepared food. I tried the black garlic chicken and my partner had the fish special (what kind of fish I’ve forgotten) but the fish was the best. The real star for us was the oysters Rockefeller. Just wish we could get those plump east coast oysters here. We finished with the banana chocolate bread pudding which was deliciously decadent. Looking forward to visiting again to try some pasta dishes.

I was introduced to this restaurant by my cousin and aunt. It was all of our first time eating here. It was selected for the proximity to all of us. The outside and inside of the restaurant looked absolutely beautiful and clean. The employees were all very nice and courteous. Meals were out of this world with presentation and taste. I would definitely love to return to this restaurant and the future when I’m visiting Denver.

I’ve been coming here since I was a kid—always been a family favorite. Seems like it’s not as good lately, but I find myself coming back for the nostalgia I suppose. It’s not terrible, just not the same. Today I had the blackened salmon salad and crab cakes. $20 for 2 small, mediocre crab cakes is a little stiff, but I felt like the salad was worth it. Lots of good stuff in it and it was really yummy. Friend got the bison burger and said it was just okay. Fries were also hard/cold. Our server was not great either. Not friendly or personable at all and we didn’t see much of him. Most of the negatives can probably just be chalked up to staff/off day. It happens. I’ll be back at some point, but not in a rush!

Loved the outdoor seating area!!!
My husband and I went in for a lunch date to celebrate our anniversary, and the service was fantastic . Our server was the most kindest and caring person. Though I wished they asked what we were celebrating after so many clues lol but it’s no biggie. Loved the ambience, staff and atmosphere…highly recommended

Absolutely loved Wash Park Grille. One of the best happy hours in Denver. $4 beers in Wash Park is pretty much unheard of. The anchovy aioli was great. Lobster pizza was great. Didn’t love the calamari, but it introduced me to the aioli, so it was still money well spent.
Bathrooms were also a great place to snap a quick mirror selfie so your Instagram followers know that you’re centered thanks to wearing a fresh set of mala beads out.

Stellar Service, comfortable seating, Delightful patronage and good food!! The Waitress brought a doggy dish of water!!
The Staff and manager were wonderful to my Service Dog and myself, I had a delicious, perfectly portioned Caesar Salad with unique spices, and Aspen (Service Dog) Thoroughly enjoyed her Angus burger!!!
Delightful place to have some rest and view of the street – very comfortable when needing a bit of time away. Great family restaurant and does not seem loud with all the seated guests.

We came here for Denver restaurant week and tried items from the restaurant week menu. The arugula Caesar was decent, a little too much dressing for my liking. The tender greens salad was great, nice touch with raspberry vinaigrette. For entrees we tried ravioli, grilled chicken carbonara, and Kona-chili rubbed sterling pork chop. Both pasta dishes were pretty mediocre in my opinion, the pork chop was definitely the best entree option, comes with asparagus and mashed potatoes. For dessert we tried the strawberry cake and walnut tres leches. Both fantastic.
Service was friendly. Daphne took good care of us. Street parking wasn’t too difficult on a Monday night. Spacious restaurant with lots of seating option- booths, tables, patio, bar. I especially liked the nostalgic photographs of Wash Park.
