Rock Bottom Restaurant & Brewery

the fish tacos where actually pretty good ...and the philly cheesesteak didn't disappoint either ... our waitress was very nice and attentive... they have juke box so add a dollar and pick your favorite song

We had a blast and laughed the night away, said the bartender who was only here because (his words not mine) he was sentenced to court ordered community service. The Denver Rock Bottom Brewery was established at the bottom of the Rock (Prudential that is) in 1991. Located on the first floor next to the Denver Prudential building, they have continued to be the foundation of an ever evolving ownership including Gordon Biersch (see my Taipei review of that American Pearl of the Orient). A daring, progressive menu of American favorites like Philly Cheesesteak, Nashville Hot Chicken, & Tater Tot Fondue, as well as break throughs like Habenero Grilled Chicken make this place an addition to your international cuisine bucket list. Their proprietary Blood Mary mix is amazing, with or without alcohol. They have 6 sauces for wings, etc, that are some of the best I have tasted: BBQ, Thai Chili, and Nashville Hot, to name a few. And, if they don't brew it on site they source it locally, including the best crisp cider you will have ever tasted. Sure they brew their own beer here. They are the third oldest microbrew in Denver, CO. That rubs shoulders with Blue Paddle and Fat Tire, brewed up the road. In fact, each Rock Bottom, has their own creative license to when it comes to to their brew. Each site's brewmaster has ultimate say over the recipe, making each site's beer somewhat unique. The service, attention to detail, and efficiency set RBB apart from the herd. Their unique but complete menu, well stocked bar, and commitment to excellence will make your culinary experience one of your best. Oh, and did I mention that their Foggy Bottom won the 2023 GABF best Porter. Always available seating, handicap accessible, and no reservations. Eat, drink, and be merry here, now. Because tomorrow, you may be in Utah.

I'd give more if I could. First off, I'm a colorful person, who enjoys the company of other colorful people. That's me in the middle. These three people, were all colorful, in cool and unique ways. The young man was our server, and took the picture for us. *smiles back* I don't live in Denver, but come down a few times a month for work nearby. So, we ended up here, and I gotta say, I liked the whole thing. Cajun Fish Tacos were on point, well-loaded, and tasty. I found it cool, that one could get fries with it, since I'm not a big fan of slaws personally. Fries were great, and I liked the rock-salt grinder.

Perfect Location Fun Atmosphere Great Service Excellent Food The Rock Bottom Brewery is a FANTASTIC Happy Hour and Dinner Destination!!!

Stopped by on a Saturday afternoon for lunch. We sat outside and there was no wait. The food here was good. I got the umami burger, which is definitely different from anything I've seen before, but it was delicious. And waffle fries are always a plus. I also really enjoyed the hazy IPA. Prices are about average but food and drinks are good.
