    I made reservations ahead of time and asked the staff for help to make this a special Valentine’s Day celebration and they did not disappoint. They went above and beyond to make the night special. On top of that the drinks and food were unique, delicious, and very creative! The atmosphere for this amazing skyline cocktail bar was incredible! It was lively yet beautiful and calming at the same time!

    This place never disappoints! This was the first lunch time we’ve eaten lunch here as we usually dine here for the full BBQ dinner experience. It was absolutely fantastic! The chicken garlic noodles , the beef (spicy & original) bibimbap rice and edamame was just the perfect amount of food.  This is a must eat for lunch or dinner! MMMMMM we are already craving the flavors….

    We enjoy Izakaya Den and understand that it has complex menu choices, which we consider a feature (not a bug). However, our waiter managed to make the menu more confusing rather than easier to navigate. We couldn't tell whether he was trying to "sell" us on items, provide information, or just hear himself talk! He got very far afield on the preparation of Tuna Collar and then discovered that he was describing a totally different dish. He also laid-on a thick layer of jargon, i.e "flavor profiles", etc. instead of speaking with clarity. The experience at Izakaya Den is already very good and didn't need to be embellished with BS. Fortunately, since one in our party has serious allium (onion/garlic) and gluten sensitivities, the order was placed correctly. We'll definitely will return again, and just hope we don't get the same waiter! Yeesh!

    This was my second visit to Babe's and was accompanied by a friend who experienced this for her fist time. Outstanding experience! The tea service and ala cart menu choices were wonderful. The menu includes so many options to meet various allergy and preference choices. Thank you for brining this experience to Golden.

    Food and service are always fantastic, but it’s too loud to have any kind of conversation.
