Denver Chop House & Brewery   

Have been to the Chop House several times while visiting our son in Lafayette, Colorado. While waiting for the (always late Amtrak) we had to have dinner and we decided the Chop House was the best place to spend time and enjoy ourselves. Never had a better dinner or better service anyplace or anywhere, EVER. We shall return soon.

We thought it would be nice to eat at the Denver Chop House, beig Friday night we would go in and see how long the wait is. They told us 45 minutes. We WAITED and WAITED and it was coming up on an hour so we asked "how much longer" and they said we had a few more people ahead of us. We over-heard other people who had been waiting 2 HOURS!! They were also told 45 minutes. We really would have liked it if the staff of the restaurtant could have just been honest and told us we could be waiting a good 2+ hours. Then we could have mad the decision if we really wanted to wait that long. But instead we were told 45 minutes which we where willing to wait. I understand that it can't always be right on the minute, but they were STILL telling people who were coming in after us a good hour and a half later that there is only a 45 minute wait. We were really annoyed that they couldn't just tell us that we will be there over 2 hours. We were really getting hungry and by this time we did not want to give them our business. So we left after waiting almost 2 hours. We went to a local Village Inn we where seated immediately and had a great meal.

I was visiting my son who lives in Centennial and is a college student at Metro, UCD and DU, I took him to dinner at The Chophouse on 6/25/04 (neither of us had ever eaten or been there)and it was amazing. The food excellent as was the service and ambiance!!

Food is good as always, if you can pry a wait person away from celebrities or good looking people of the opposite sex.
