Elway's Downtown Denver steakhouse

I just had a cheeseburger and it was just okay. Nothing special. It was advertised as a smash burger but the beef patty was still about an inch thick after it was cooked. For me that's way to thick because then it messes up the meat to cheese ratio. I could barely even tell there was cheese on it. even though the burger was a 2 star burger at best the service was great! I'd say 4 star service! Glad I had a gift card because I'd be upset if I had to pay $25 for Elway's 2 star burger!

Oh my goodness what a steak! Plus got the lamb chop fondue and that was fantastic. Great service with a smile. Went for my birthday and they made it a great night. Plus got a free birthday key lime pie!

We always love our experience at Elway's. The downtown location is the best. The Lamb Fondue is a must and you can't go wrong with any of their steaks. Amazing drinks to top it all off.

Wonderful meal where drinks are well made, steaks are seasoned correctly and served at the right temperature, and service is amongst the best in class. You get what you pay for, however, and it's easy to spend a pretty penny on an excellent meal here.

Went for our 1st anniversary, waiter barely talked to us the whole time. We never heard about any of their specials. We were never talked to about the different cuts of meat. Definitely a joke to be paying $70.00 for a filet that I can make on my cast iron. It was very good but not worth the money at all. Boring atmosphere, horrible service, I do not recommend going here. You can get better service and the same quality steak at Texas Roadhouse.

The first thing you notice in a restaurant is ambience. This location definitely needs a facelift because it just kind of feels like a used to be popular steakhouse from the 90s. Online it says $$$$, so I expected a lot better atmosphere. Even the shape of the bar, table cloths that don’t touch the ground, rainbow mood lighting (?), clunky bar stools, upholstered booths look like they had a fabric pattern that should be on the carpet at a movie theater. Moving onto food, we weren’t terribly hungry so we each got a salad. Good. The tomato and burrata salad was great! I love a good wedge and this had a healthy amount of bleu cheese crumbles and bacon. Dessert was a different story. I was really excited about the Keylime pie and our bartender, server convinced us that it wasn’t good, as well as the mousse cake was not good and probably the best thing was Basque cheesecake. Threw me off for someone to convince me not to get something I came for but we decided to go with the mousse cake. The way he had described it was beautiful, unfortunately they have changed the recipe over the years, and didn’t execute it very well. The mousse was granulated and overly sweet. The middle layer was supposed to have a crunch to it, it did not. And the base layer was almost like a tres leches soaked cake. Neither of us wanted it, which is unfortunate because the description made it sound amazing. Second attempt was a Basque cheesecake. The highlight of a Basque cheesecake is the burnt part, (which is intentional) And though the burn should be a beautiful dark brown color, it was masked with whipped cream. When something is masked, it’s typically because there’s a mistake, in my opinion. There was barely a burn to it, it actually came out quite light in color and it honestly looked like somebody had plopped it on the plate. Disappointing presentation. The flavor was fine, but the cheesecake probably had too many eggs in it or was over mixed, so the eggs scrambled. It fell apart, not in a good way. The homemade whip cream and vanilla on glaze were very tasty, but the accompanyment shouldn’t be the favorite part. I was grateful that our bartender/server made it right with the dessert. But I don’t think I could go back to the steakhouse based off of the ambience, and poor quality desserts. I appreciated the bartender/servers honesty, but this restaurant fell short of expectations for an Elways steakhouse, especially attached to a Ritz Carlton.

Great staff and classic atmosphere. The food was okay but definitely not worth the massive bill the 3 of us had by the end. Would definitely recommend looking elsewhere for a greater bang for your buck. This restaurant feels a bit stuck in 2004.

This place has great steak and drinks.. super tasty and 10 outta 10 would recommend. About 200$ for a couple night, dinner, drinks, dessert. Not bad. Great service.

The place is gorgeous and the staff was attentive. Unfortunately the food was not what I had hoped for. We had reservations for 6 30. I ordered the filet with Brussel sprouts and baked potato. I was only able to eat half of my steak before I got incredibly nauseous. I spent the rest of my time in the restaurant trying not the vomit all over my table. To make matters worse, when the waiter came by to inquire about dessert I explain why that wasn't an option. He basically blew me off saying "even if you ate the meat raw it would still be safe to eat, if that makes you feel better". I never thought the meat was bad to begin with. It didn't taste "bad". Nothing I ate tasted bad, but it still made me sick. I finally started feeling better about 4 am. Being sick for 8 hours was definitely not how I planned to spend my Friday evening.

Came here for a catered event, but the choices were expansive. In short, everything was really good. This is a top-notch steak house. They also cooked...
