Can't go wrong with the chowder . I ordered a combination of wasters king crab peel and eat shrimp watch salad and blackened salmon as well as tuna poke . All dishes met and exceeded expectations!!!
Legendary happy hour at Jax with $3 oyster shooters (East Coast oyster , vodka , bloody mary mix ) and $5 chorizo gravy fries with cheddar cheese curds . Like poutine via Mexico. O, Canada! Read more
The go-to restaurant for oysters , fish , & a mean happy hour . This LoDo staple's newly remodeled space-open daily starting at 4 p.m.-attracts a broad range of patrons. [Eater 38 Member] Read more
The Lobster Roll is a must have! The oysters are amazing and the servers do a great job explaining the different flavors depending on where they come from. Monday is all night happy hour !
Best clam chowder EVER! Pair with the homemade bread and a cold beer - you will not want to leave! Great specials on oysters too!! A must visit when I am in town .
Simply one of the best seafood places I’ve been to. A must any time I visit Denver.
The lobster roll is incredible. Order it. Also, they make their own grenadine, which was incredible in my Shirley Temple :)
Less spacious and more energetic than McCormick's across the street, but much fresher seafood and better beer selection . Better happy hour deals , as well . Check it out.
Everything! #Mondays is #happyhour all #night, #food, #drink and a #cute staff to look at...i am a happy wahine #cheepono
Go for happy hour and get the Sea Dog and PEI Muscles with Panang curry sauce . Order the buttermilk break to soak up the sauce.
Barely above average. Appetizers: oysters , calamari , and lump crab cake were excellent. Ciopinno was sub par: broth was lukewarm, alaska crab-really?, and fish was only found dissolved into flakes .
Great selection of top quality oysters . Highly recommended for the last 20 years.
Crab cakes were great... Oyster shutters a must. Plus you can draw on the table!
Calamari and clam chowder were exceptional. Lizzie and the rest of the staff make the evening perfect.
One Free Pint of Beer with the Purchase of a Dozen Oysters when you show your uberX ride receipt! 11/18-11/21 #COLOVESuberX
Everything was just perfect. Service, drinks, food, space, everything!
Crab cakes , clam chowder , oysters , peel and eat shrimp , lobster roll
The crab fried rice was really good.
Do an eye out for Friday all you can eat oysters ????
Come check out the newly remodeled restaurant for the great ambiance and interactive raw bar !
Fresh fish and pasta , delicious. Good bar area (although slow this Sunday night).
Great happy hour -- the Paloma was just the refreshing kick I needed after a long day!
they make their own ginger beer so the Moscow Mule 's are the bomb, especially with fresh oysters !
Try the Oyster shooters and the clam chowder is a work of art . Make sure you meet Tim, ultra badass bartender !
best oyster shooters in Denver. The house pepper infused vodka is killer!
Best Happy Hour for oysters !!! And great location, staff :)
The oysters Rockefeller are amazing!
Can't beat the happy hour prices... Delicious oysters !!
Made to order soup !
Sit at the bar . The service is amazing. Food is seasonal, take their suggestions. Outstanding!
Happy hour is awesome!
Try their home made root beer ! One of a kind indeed... Read more
Short menu but excellent food
Ok, go for the peach crisp. Awesome ginger flavor.
Getting my oyster fix!!
Great happy hour prices and choices.
I disagree with the last poster. It may get busy, but Tim and Chris are the best bartenders in town .
Food: $2 oyster shooters , $1 oysters , $3 snacks Drink: $3 wines , $3-$5 vodka martinis , $3 draft beersEvery Day 4pm-6pm
So far... Crab cake , peel n eat shrimp , and calamari , are spectacular.
Skip the appetizers . Skip the main course. Get the oysters ...they are outstanding!
Good selection of Oysters . You have to ask for Mignonette though!
One of the worst restaurant experiences I’ve ever had. Over salted chowder , dry bland crab cakes , horribly cooked steak , salad drenched in dressing .
Tim is the best bartender ever!!! Amazing service.
Try the gumbo..and everything else..
Best Happy Hour in Denver!
Clam Chowder
Oyster happy hour
Oysters are good.
Had Jax for dinner last night! Lobster BLT baby! If you're in Denver Jax is a must :)
One of the best restaurants I have been to in the Denver metro area... Attentive staff, delicious food and a beautiful atmosphere... - Devin Rogers
Oysters 3 ways: raw (with ponzu), grilled (with butter), and fried (in a slider). With a side of Buffalo-wings-style blowfish tails. - sarah vergara
Excellent seafood, very fresh with a lot of creativity and a nice selection of west coast oysters. Great service and plenty of seating. We will definitely be returning! - Brooks Walker
Amazing craft cocktails and you can't beat the atmosphere. A time capsule to a classic time. Great way to spend the afternoon. - Timothy State
Beautiful field. It was walking distance from our hotel. Concessions were very reasonably priced as far as concessions go. Lots of fun and enjoyed watching the game. - Tanya Wallace
Huge arena with lots of expensive food and beverage huts! Restrooms are huge and the arena display is awesome - Kenneth Corrêa
