“ Our server JC was amazing, she took great care of us and made the night proper for our party. Food and drinks were on point, we enjoyed the oysters and bone marrow to start. Patio seating outside is nice even if a bit loud from the busy street. ”

“ The atmosphere is cool and relaxing and the food is great. But our waitress, Sara, made our experience outstanding! She took exceptional care of us and went above and beyond to make us feel special. Can’t wait to go back! ”

“ My family really enjoyed our Saturday night dinner at American Elm! All of our food was delicious (I highly recommend the burger), and our server Jacy was lovely!! Great vibes and music, we would definitely return. ”

“ Looking for a romantic date or double date night spot? American Elm's patio offers private, heated greenhouses that will have you enjoying a beautiful winter night, all the while cozy warm inside, sipping on fab cocktails & eating great food. We arrived at American Elm and were seated in our cutie lil' greenhouse. Each greenhouse had their own space heater & speaker. Our server Drew was lovely - she was attentive and had great recommendations on the menu. My favorite cocktail at American Elm continues to be The Pandan Chi Chi (a must order). The Pandan Chi Chi is made with Community Spirit Co. vodka, pandan, coconut, pineapple, & lime. This cocktail was visually stunning and tasted like a vanilla creamsicle with notes of pineapple & coconut. Tanya got the Metal Heard made with Uruapan Charanda & Rum Fire Jamaican rums, Clement Mahina coconut, pineapple, lime, bubbles. Smoky and Sweet - served on crushed ice in a Collins glass. The Portobello Wraps were made with bulgogi marinade, grilled portobello, bibb lettuce, carrot, sprouts, radish, cilantro, & toasted garlic chili oil. These veggie packed wraps were fresh, bright, & filled with savory portobellos. The Crispy Pork Belly was made with jalapeno creme, grilled seasonal fruit, pickled fresno chile, mustard seed, & cilantro. The pork belly was tender with a crispy outside layer. The smokiness of the pork was brightened by the seasonal fruit. The Artichoke Dip was made with three cheese blend, charred pepper, crostini, & crudites. This dip was solid - warm and cheesy with a delicate artichoke zing. The Deviled Eggs were made with smoked yolk, mustard seed, & house pork belly. The creamy, rich yolk filling was velvety texture and went well against the crunch of the pork - a mouthful of flavor. The Caesar Salad was made with romaine, roasted garlic croutons, cherry tomatoes, & parmesan crisp. American Elm makes all of their pasta in house, and you bet we were getting after it. The Duck Ragu Pappardelle was made with confit duck leg, burrata, pecorino, & basil. This was my favorite pasta of the night - the pappardelle was beautiful & generously coated in hearty rich sauce & smooth burrata. The Steak Frites were made with ribeye cap, bone marrow butter, arugula salad, & fries. The steak was cooked perfectly, and the bone marrow butter added a mouthwatering sweet, nutty flavor to the meat. The Creamy Casarecce was made with River Bear bacon, spring peas, local mushrooms, roasted garlic, & parmesan cream sauce. This savory pasta dish combined thick pasta, bacon pieces, & locally grown mushrooms which made for creamy and satisfying bites. The Lemon Maiale Rigatoni was made with sausage, spinach, heirloom tomatoes, confit garlic cloves, & parmesan. This pasta dish was characterized by creamy lemon butter sauce and a flavorful combo of Italian sausage and tender rigatoni. For dessert we had the Buttermilk Pie made with brown butter whip, nilla wafers, & strawberry gastrique and the Creme Brulee. A sweet ending to a fantastic meal! ”

“ Our server was Kara, and she did a superb job of taking care of us. We got the duck papardelle and the scallops. The papardelle dish was plentiful, savory. We were shielded at the about of duck (tender & flavorful) that was in the dish. The scallops were perfect (sweet and tender), and I'm picky as hell about scallops. Our dessert was also great. It was buttery, fresh and smooth. Drinks were excellent. We really enjoyed the music to the point that we added a few new artists to our own playlist. Go here, treat yourself to great food and service, and feel like everything is right in the world for the moment. ”

“ Best restaurant we’ve been to in Denver area . Great service , got the oysters , deviled eggs as apps they were both pretty good . our entrees were FANTASTIC they stole the show . My boyfriend got the handmade pasta and it got the fresh water fish they were both so delicious. We finished it off with their creme brulee which is my favorite . ”

“ I am really happy that I decided to check this place out. I lived in the neighborhood for almost two years and never stopped in. I feel that I missed out on some good food. I had a reservation for 4:30 on a Friday, however didn't need it, as I was the only person in the restaurant. For an appetizer I started off with the crispy pork belly 5.5/10. The pork belly had a bit of fat and was just alright, it would not be my first choice if I went back. The next appetizer I got was the corn fritters, which were excellent 8/10. I feel that these were a little different than other fritters that I have had, more doughy, but I enjoyed them. I also sampled both an east and west coast oysters, which were both wonderful 10/10. For my entree I had the crispy trout almondine, which was excellent 9.5/10. The fish was well coated, had great flavor and paired well with the sides. For an additional side dish I tried the brown butter carrots 7/10, pretty good. For dessert I tried the special banana buttermilk pie, this was really special 10/10. I am happy that I came here. The atmosphere is very nice and cozy. All of the staff were extremely nice and friendly. I look forward to finding an occasion to come back for... hopefully in the near future. ”

“ 5 out of 5 stars!!! This place is amazing! Highly recommend. Our server Sarah was fantastic, she really made the experience memorable. We will be back just for her! The food was outstanding. We had the tiger shrimp for an appetizer, perfectly succulent with a great scampi sauce and the toasted bread was spot on. For dinner we enjoyed their seared scallops with butternut squash puree, and their house made pasta with walnut pesto absolutely outstanding. The star of the show for me was their house made creme brulee. Will be back to try the rest of their incredible menu. ”
