A5 Steakhouse

Okay first thing, this is not your average steakhouse. It is family friendly we enjoyed seeing so many different types of people getting dinner here. It wasn’t stuffy or snooty like a lot of upscale steakhouses. It was very difficult to decide what to get on the menu, so we got a lot of different items and had so much leftover for an additional dinner the next night. the Japanese poutine was so good. The fries were still crispy, the sauce was yummy and it wasn’t too messy to eat. the wedge salad was really good and a massive portion that I wasn’t expecting to get. I wasn’t a fan of the tomatoes in it and thought the pickled onions should’ve been cut smaller but was still yummy with their homemade dressing. the Japanese milk bread however stole the appetizer show for us! Talk about fluffy yet flavorful. We would’ve ordered several of them and even saw the table next to us skip dessert and order a 2nd round before they left from dinner. You MUST get it. We also got the Santa Maria tri tip (with bordelaise) and the picanha (with chimichurri). Both were perfectly cooked as requested and both had such different but distinctly delicious flavors. I personally thought trip tip was smoky and crispy and I wanted to eat it every day. The picanha had a different sear and marinade to it from the tri tip but was also delicious in its own right. We ended up getting the fries and the Mac and cheese as well as sides and the sauce with the fries was interesting… I wouldn’t get it again as it had a strangely sweet taste but not a pleasant one in my opinion. The Mac and cheese though were so creamy and paired so well with the pepper jam sauce! We obvi didn’t save room for dessert but who cares. The dinner was great! I would say the service was a little slow…. Looking around, it appeared each server had a lot of tables so we felt a little neglected. This was on a Monday night so I’d hate to see it during prime time! All in all the food was really good though and I’d go back and def bring people with me!

Killer happy hour, great food and ambiance. Service was odd; everything was efficient but not friendly. We would have ordered more but it seemed we couldn’t (plates and utensils collected without asking.) There is a 20% gratuity included in bill. Worth it, honestly. The oysters, croquettes, and burger were all terrific. Draft cocktails for a restaurant of this caliber is an interesting choice, but those were good too!

We had such a nice time at A5. We ordered the croquettes to start, shared a scallop entree and each tried a steak. The sauces (house and chimichurri) were so good too. Our server, Sarah, was knowledgeable, and the service was great. Everyone we interacted with (the host, sommelier, food runner) was down to Earth and friendly. We really enjoyed the atmosphere and experience.

Came here by myself and on top of one of the best meals I’ve had in my entire life, the service from Brent was next level. Great recommendations from him for oysters and sides and of course I had to try the Tri-tips on top of those. I’m hoping to return before I leave town and try some dessert because I couldn’t possibly find the room tonight! All photos I took after having a bite because I couldn’t resist haha. Thanks to the A5 team!

Truly a spectacular experience. The atmosphere is inviting and not pretentious, they play great classic rock. The service here is attentive, welcoming and informative. The food is out of this world. The steaks are delicious as well as the sides. We ordered the bacon for an app and loved it. I highly recommend. With out steaks we choose the Mac and cheese croquettes (so good, the spicy sauce they come with….delicious) and the mashed potatoes. The potatoes might be the best I’ve ever had (don’t tell my mom that). The only slight miss for us was dessert; neither of us cared for the chocolate bar it was a little sour and the banana cream threw us off. That aside it’s so worth coming here, I can easily say it’s the best steak I’ve had in Denver and honestly probably my favorite meal.
