    For appetizers, wagyu tartare and cheese charcuterie was good while octopus was okay, for the main course, we had wagyu filet mignon and it was amazing. Definitely something we will go back to. Properly cooked and almost melts in your mouth. Flavor was very good too. For dessert, we had the cookies and toffee cake. Cookies were salty and I couldn't eat and would not recommend them. But the toffee cake was pretty good. The only negative we found was the service. It was a bit slow and we had to wait for our drinks and the refill came only after we finished our entire food and after the table was cleared. Considering that's a one off, overall, a good experience. We paid $590 including gratuities for 4.

    Absolutely love this place. The whole staff is amazing. We come here every year to celebrate our child’s Heartaversary (having a heart transplant), and the staff always makes it such a special occasion. And the food is the best!!!!! Best steak in town, everything is delicious. We will be coming here for years

    Our first time dining at Guard and Grace. Our waiter, Jonathon, was outstanding. His suggestions and answers to our questions were so helpful. The food was amazing.

    I travel weekly and eat out quite a bit. This was the best meal I’ve had in years. Everything from the bread to the desserts were delicious. Will come back for sure.

    Meals, and drinks are at the top of the list of best we have had. Service would rank second best. Server, (Brian?) was outstanding but it was a bit loud for us to converse with him and or hear him. Loved the energy, but boy it bordered on too loud. Should you go? Yes absolutely. Go for the food and drinks, just know it will be a bit loud. After dinner wife and I reviewed the best meals of our 25 years, and this is among the handful of best ever.

    Unless you are dining alone (for whatever reason), dining out is usually a social affair, particularly at an upscale restaurant, such as this. However, the noise level was so high as to prevent any easy conversation with ones dinner companion. Enough to spoil the mood.
    Guard & Grace - DenverResponded 4 days ago
    We are deeply disappointed to see your experience was anything but 5 stars. We would love the opportunity to connect and make this right. We hope you give us another chance in the future to rectify this as we our committed to providing above and beyond guest experiences. We apologize for the loud music, and we completely understand your frustration. Thank you and again we are so sorry. Warm regards. - Tee Paddock, Guest Relations Manager
