Best Restaurants with a Happy Hour in Downtown / LoDo

Absolutely an incredible dinner! We started off with the Poutine and Pork Belly, the. Dove right into the 30oz bone in NY Strip with the fried Mac and cheese croquettes and pork and kimchi fried rice. We also selected the Thai Chili and Hous Chili crunch sauces as an accompaniment to the steak.(which was not entirely necessary, but added extra flare and spice to the steak. Sadly we were far too full and could not entertain even the thought of dessert. But we will definitely be back. The cocktails were well balanced and decently priced given the aesthetic and our own expectations. Overall for two people going all out $383.00(gratuity included) was honestly and totally worth it. We will definitely be back! And soon! Incredible experience!

Excellent staff, Fun drinks, and Great food! Loved the whole night.

Ocean Prime delivered an exceptional dining experience for Valentine’s Day. The food was nothing short of outstanding, with every dish crafted to perfection. Our server was not only attentive but also had impeccable recommendations, ensuring we got the best of both the menu and the night’s drink specials. While the restaurant was busier than expected, and the noise level was a bit higher than ideal, it didn’t overshadow the quality of the meal or the overall experience. If I had to rate it, I’d confidently give Ocean Prime a 4.7 out of 5—an excellent choice for a special occasion or an upscale night out.

Awesome experience, definitely coming back sometime!

STK Denver is the perfect blend of upscale dining and a lively, energetic atmosphere. From the moment you walk in, the sleek, modern decor and upbeat music set the tone for a fun and sophisticated night out. The steaks are next-level—perfectly cooked, well-seasoned, and incredibly tender. But beyond the steak, the menu offers a great selection of seafood, sides, and creative drinks that make the whole dining experience even better. The little burgers and truffle pasta are absolute musts! Service was fantastic—attentive, friendly, and knowledgeable. Whether you're celebrating a special occasion, out for a date night, girls night, or just looking for a great meal with a lively vibe, STK Denver does not disappoint.
