The name of this place kind of says it all. But beware. All Indulges are not created equal. Indulge has another location. And while the Golden location may have the same great food, drinks, and service, it simply doesnt have the magic of the Highlands Ranch location. I believe this location is open for lunch. But the best time to come is in the afternoon a couple of hours before sunset. You can sit out on the patio (on warmer days), muse at the beauty and majesty of the mountains, and then watch the sun set behind them. If its only a little chilly outside, the fire pits are likely to keep you warm enough. Wear a coat, snuggle up next to someone special, and let the magic take hold by the fire. Seating on the patio is comfortable. The food is excellent, but maybe not the best if youre craving something very hearty. They do have dinner entrees, but they specialize in small plates. Their fish and seafood seems to always be very good. They do have an extensive selection of wines, and they offer wine flights. But its their mixed drinks which always seem to win me over. They have a menu of specialty martinis which must be experienced to be believed. The bathrooms are usually very clean and very comfortable. The music is an eclectic blend of pop and electronica. You wont hear anything close to rock or country in here, most likely. For a great day or night youll dream about for weeks to come, be prepared to spend at least $100 for 2. The service is top notch, even when theyre busy. Parking can be a challenge sometimes. This is hands-down one of my favourite places in the Denver metro area.

We were seated in a tiny table with no lights at the end of a row, right next to a door. There were at least 7 other tables open. After about 10 minutes we got some water and waited some more.. finally our waiter rushed by to ask if we wanted drinks. Very rushed, didnt offer to help us decide on wine, just sort of hurrying through. Almost another 15 minutes goes by and were gathering our things to leave when our waiter puts two glasses down as he walked by our table. Didnt say a word. We decide to just stay and finish dinner, big mistake. We had about a sip left of wine when he came by more than 15 minutes later and asked "did you guys want some food too"? So, we ordered dinner (The food was great by the way). We ate dinner, finished a couple of glasses of water and finally had to have another waiter clear our plates and bring the check. All of this is on a Tuesday night and it was far from busy. Never have I felt so ignored at a so-called "nice restaurant". This is the second time weve had bad service here in the past couple of months. I highly recommend avoiding this dive. You can find a much better dining experience for less money nearby.

My girlfriend and I tried the valentines four course special. I ordered the Cornish hen entree. When I started on the leg, I noticed a bit of blood at the bone, which I thought was odd given that Cornish hen is rather small. When I cut into the breast, it wasnt cooked at all. The breast meat was completely raw. Our waitress, Kristin, was very apologetic, and my portion of the meal was removed from the bill. Unfortunately neither the owner or the Chef had the decency to come and apologize personally. I expected a lot more from this restaurant given the price tag. I was rather unimpressed with the portion of my meal that was edible. The pork belly was nothing but fat, and the rice bed provided with the Cornish hen was over salted. Although the restaurant offers an intimate atmosphere, the food is not at all worth the price. A classless owner and head chef couldnt even show their face to apologize for serving me raw chicken.

Food was good but the service was unacceptable. Our server, Rebecca, took our order and didnt return to our table until she brought our check. With this being our first visit, we started with a couple of appetizers and our server did not seemed pleased as she asked, "Is that all?" When our food arrived, we really liked it and wanted to order more as well as wine but she didnt return to our table. She visited others under her care but not us. She sat and chatted with other patrons but never checked to see if we enjoyed our food or wanted anything else. When she finally returned, she blamed others for not refilling our glasses (2 waters and 1 wine), which we found to be extremely unprofessional. The food was good and well try the location in Golden but will not be returning to the Highlands Ranch location due to the poor service.

Went to Indulge for the first time this evening. Food was great, wine was wonderful but the service was horrible. After we were seated we waited 20 minutes for our server to show up. He didnt introduce himself, just asked for our drink order and walked away. We didnt even know they had happy hour specials until we left the bar and saw the sign out front. Saw the server 2 more times and after finishing our meal we waited another 30 minutes to ask another person to get our bill. Would recommend management take a hard look at wait staff. Definitely will not return.

Although the place is very contemporary, it was not cozy or comfortable at all. I was not impressed with the food - our Asian Chicken Skewers were very dry and salty and the Italian Grilled Flatbread was similar to what I make my kids - pizza made with grocery store brand crust, sauce and cheese. It was disappointing to watch and hear the owners schmoozing with the regulars at the bar (which was right in front of our table) about their recent cruise. I didnt notice them talking to anyone else about how their dining experience was going. Dont think well be going back.

Try their gluten-free flat-bread pizza! Hands down, this pizza crust will make you never go back to regular crust and youll never want to go anywhere else for pizza! Its light, fluffy and pure yumminess! I love the John Wayne pizza, but seriously, all are out of this world! They have an incredible selection of wine at all price points, and a menu that will make your mouth water just reading it. The food is amazing. The service is great! Treat yourself to lunch or dinner!

Was in Indulge last night for the first time after a recommendation from a neighbor. Lovely atmosphere and friendly staff. My girlfriend and I sat at the bar and had a wonderful time chatting with the bartender. He was extremely funny and personable and made some wonderful suggestions on wine. Menu looks delicious although we were informed it was a temporary menu as they are undergoing a kitchen renovation. Cant wait to return for dinner with my husband!!!

Overall it was a nice dining experience. The service was good; the wine was good, and the food was good. The reason Im giving it 4 stars is that I wouldnt necessarily go out of my way to go back. The prices were high, and there was nothing about it that knocked my socks off. But I will say that the manager opened a nice bottle of wine for us that they wouldnt normally serve by the glass, and gave us a nice description. It was delicious wine.
