Appaloosa Grill is one of the best places to hang out and dine in downtown Denver. Not only do they have a fabulous chef and menu, their employees are incredibly friendly and treat you like family. I love that they are huge supporters of local non-profits too! Plus they have live music !!

Music 7 days a week, amazing food, greatest staff in Denver...only cool place you're going to find downtown too and happy hour is one of the best in denver
Fantastic little spot for food and drink! 1930's Era bar adds a lot of character to the place. Had the elk burger and Mac and cheese - off the chart good! Full service bar, with plenty of options. Bartender Kelly was super friendly and very attentive. Excellent food, excellent service!!! Definitely recommend.
The brussel sprouts were delicious!! They were perfectly crispy and the sauce was really good. The tempura chicken avocado sandwich I got sounded waaayyyy better on the menu than it actually was. It was flavorLESS. None at all. If the chicken patty had some sort of flavor, I think it would have been good. The sweet potato fries were some of my fave. My husband got the bison burger and it was good, wierd, bad, crazy, amazing, and different. Those are words we actually used to describe it. I think everyone should try it at least once. The mac and cheese was okay. The lemon drop drink was okay too. Not the best we've had, but not the worst either. I wasn't a fan of the vibe inside either. However, we would definitely go back again, but just for the brussel sprouts.
I always stop by for lunch when I'm in town! you seat yourself, rotating menu. no straws.
Chicken sandwich is always good. Baked goat cheese.
Truffle Fries!!!
The service during the day is sometimes uninviting.
Craved a really good steak stopped in here during the early afternoon. The staff was so kind to share thier recommendations ordered the ribeye with blue cheese butter and the fried Brussel sprouts with a sweet and sour sauce. I enjoyed my drink at an over 120 year old bar from a historic opera house and enjoyed every bite of my meal. It was a lovely afternoon overall. My only criticism would be the bartender was not super attentive with an empty bar, so I moved to a table near the window and there were a sock and "mud" on the outside awning and it was a little slow had a sleepy vibe but the hostess was a Jem. I'd definitely come back for that steak.
Great selection of Odell brewing Co beers. Cool folks. Great bison selection. The green Chile bison burger with sweet potato fries 🍟 is fantastic!
Go have a good time. Live music nightly at 9 pm.
Great food, great place and nice atmosphere. The food was great and very generous. Got the chicken burger with fried avocado. Honestly the fried avocado doesnt add much to the burger as it gets all mushy at some point. We also had the mushroom pasta which was super tasty as well. There is also a nice long list of beer options
Business trip brought me to Denver and Appaloosa was the first place I ate. It certainly did not disappoint! Normally, on these trips I'll only eat a place once so I can enjoy all a city has. Well, Appaloosa pulled me back 3 times altogether! My family and colleagues enjoyed the bison steak, the bison burger, and the Chili.
All the items we tried was amazing.
It took a minute to appreciate the tip system. All food has a 20% service charge that all the employees share - and you are given the opportunity to add extra for your server. After our first meal it wasn't hard to leave extra. The food, atmosphere and service was great. All our food was prepared as stated and the choices was great. They were one of the few places we found on 16th Street that has music every night.
Check them out - enjoy!
I was in town for a conference and had steaks at several well known steakhouses and I must say...the steak here was the best!!!
The service is awesome and the establishment was very welcoming.
If you are in Denver, you definitely need to check this place out.
LIVE music in this restaurant. Cool atmosphere with a great staff. Make your reservation. We had a party of 10 and were seated right away. The menu is diverse and tasty. I got the Borracho Avocado app, where the avocado was beer battered and fried, then served with chips and pico. Dinner was the filet mignon with zucchini and mashies. Five stars across the board. Our group played a murder mystery game while we ate. There was no room for dessert, but that apple cinnamon creme brule was very tempting.
Had a great experience! Our waitress, Georgia, gave some wonderful recommendations and the food was excellent!
