    Just had Christmas lunch at Elways. Tommy, a 10 veteran was our server and he was exceptional. There was a slight mix up on our reservation so they comped us two glasses of wine and our appetizer. Tommy sold us on trying the Colorado lamb rack and it was the best I've ever had. All the staff was supportive, the vibe is elegant but comfortable and I can strongly recommend Elways for a special occasion, to impress a client or just to reward yourself with a great meal done right in everyway.

    I wasn't sure what to expect but the cocktails, food and overall experience was outstanding. The steaks were cooked to perfection. I would highly recommend, but be prepared to pay very high prices. You're not just buying food, but an experience with a great vibe and location in downtown Denver.

    We were 2 and sat at a table in a little alcove. Perfect. My son has to eat GF food and they have a fabulous paper menu showing exactly what it GF. He was so pleased! Service was excellent. We have great cocktails and I had a good red wine. We had the Empress Noodles (lots of veggies and we added chicken, a whole meal) Prawn skewers, super good and tasty dipping sauce. I had the pork bao buns..because Bao. All was good. Came quickly. Music is ED and is slightly loud if you are trying to talk. love the location, close to DCPA and Ball arena.

    Always top notch service with wonderful food selections. I had tofu tacos and asked for all the sauces on the side and they accommodated without hesitation. Our waiter (I believe his name was CJ) was super attentive, friendly and welcoming. This place is a family favorite
