About this business
Two friends, John Elway and Tim Schmidt came together to create this restaurant. They put together a menu that's always evolving and a wine list with prices that won't burn a hole in your pocket. The restaurant boasts of serving the freshest food and there is a lot on offer to tickle your palate. The duck tacos, shrimp cocktail, lamb fondue and cured meat board are a must from the range of starters. From the main course, go for the crab fried rice, prime rib, Hawaiian sun fish and steak loaf. The wine list is extensive, with... read more

I feel like this location has went down hill fairly recent. The staff is not very friendly and the food quality hasn't been what it used to be. We came here last weekend and between our group, two of our steaks were so undercooked, while another one was burnt. The server seemed irritated when we sent back two super rare steaks (they wanted them medium and medium well). The others finished their meals by the time the steaks came out. We will not be back
Nice place, but good food....not so much – Just went to Elway's this past weekend for a special occasion. We were looking forward to a great meal, considering the prices, but were very disappointed with the food. Shrimp cocktail - biggest shrimp I've ever seen, but not much flavor Salmon - overdone Steak - Here's where the real story begins.... I ordered the large Fillet, expecting a decent tenderloin. I'm a steak lover and have eaten fillets all over the world at some very high end restaurants, so I'm pretty knowledgeable a... read more
It's Not Elway's, but he eats here for free! – First off, I used to patronize this restaurant 2-3 times per week @ $50-$120 a hit for about 1 year. The more I frequented the place the worse and ruder the bar tenders became toward me. Yes, you know the two I'm talking about. I once tipped a waiter in San Francisco $150 for a two hundred dollar meal because the service was so personalized, so I think I know how to tip. But, the more I came in the sicker I got of watching other customers treated better than me, so I quit going ... read more
Elways - won't be back! – Nice ambiance for dinner but.... hostesses were unfriendly and waitstaff was aloof and condescending. The level of service and quality of food is not comensurate with the high prices. I ordered a glass of wine, enjoyed it and when finished the waiter asked "Do you wanna another one of these"? I was taked aback. I ordered the same menu item as the person sitting across from me, who ordered first, and the waiter asked "Do you want it just like him"? Just like him??? Did he mean on a plate? I answered ... read more
Nasty foood, mixed service, pretty place – Thank goodness they had biscuits so we could tide ourselves over until we could get home and eat. The "Hollaindaise" wasn't hollondaise it was some disgusting mustard mayo sauce (neither mayo or mustard are ingredients in Hollaindaise). The onlettes were crusty, dried out and overcooked, even the fruit wasn't ripe. The breakfast potaoes were ok. The service was mostly ok and the staff was friendly except we never got water refills and most people were done w/ their dessert before we... read more
Amazing place for lunch – Up until this point, I had only been to Elways on the bar side. This time we had a big table of people for lunch and I was impressed. The food was excellent. The lobster club was just right (although more lobster would have been good - it seemed like it had more bread than necessary) but it was still very tasty. The service was very friendly and accommodating. The dessert Ding Dong is AMAZING. I wish the lunch prices were a bit lower but I do recommend this place for sure.
Disappointment – Daughters graduation celebration. Ordered 3 steaks out of 4 people, sent all 3 back. All 3 steaks were sitting in a pool of blood. 2 steaks were ordered Med-Well and 1 was Med. Sent 2 of the steaks back, they came back bloody, again. We gave up at that point. Appetizers, ordered the coconut shirmp, over cooked. 5 star restuarant with 2 star food. They have either kids cooking in the kitchen or cooks without proper expereince. My one and only visit.
Steak okay, ambiance amazing – This was one of the three restaurants my wife and I visited during 5280. We went to Elways, the Melting Pot and Vista dipping grill. First of all, the servers had zero personality. ZERO. No introduction, no smile, nothing. The first thing one of them said (after about a 5-7 min. wait) was "Would you like anything to drink?" No reccomendations, nothing. You can tell that Management hasn't spent enough time training their staff to appreciate every customer and to help build the base. Their oblivi... read more
Impressive – Our waiter Tim was very personable the moment we sat down. His knowledge on helping me pick out wine was fantastic. I'm always on the look out for a place that serves buffalo which Elway's did!! The side dishes were spectacular especially the cream corn. I loved everything about this place from start to finish. The next time I'm in CO I will definitely come back to this place :)
