A wonderfully relaxed dining atmosphere, indoors and particularly outdoors. The staff were incredibly warm, welcoming and funny, holding a good tempo of not being rushed, but not keeping you waiting for long, either. Great selection of local Niwot beers and wines - my particular favorite is the Insane Rush IPA, which gives you the traditional IPA flavor, but without the bite in its aftertaste. Bountiful selection of classic American comfort foods, but elevated to the degree of fine dining. I thoroughly enjoyed cornbread with chipotle honey butter and tostones with chimichurri and spicy aioli for appetizers, followed by an amazing main course of braised short rib with cheesy grits, sauteed spinach and red wine jus. They slow-cook the meat for many hours throughout the day, and the meat was so tender that didn't even need my knife at all, as the meat simply fell apart as I drove my fork into it. Before I could claim a wheelbarrow to roll me out of this charming saloon-style building, I couldn't resist twisting my arm for a rich chocolate brownie with a raspberry sauce swirl on the plate. A perfect place to celebrate any occasion with family and friends - I can't recommend enough supporting this lovely gem of Niwot and can't wait to be back for more soon!

Awesome restaurant, 14oz ribeye steak cooks to professional and the trout so crisp outside and moist inside. Be sure to order the strawberry shortcake, our waiter " Michael " recommended. It taste so good. And they have 3 beautiful hosts guide you to our table. And they even brought out our desserts. I can't wait to come back to try other dishes.

I took my wife (and our kids) here for her birthday recently and everything was excellent. Her cocktail was great and I enjoyed my local Niwot beer. I typically take photos of the food for my reviews but wanted to be present since it was a birthday celebrating my wife so sorry I don't have photos but rest assured the food looked as great as it tasted (presentation was on point) We ordered a few appetizers. Oysters on the half shell, baked artichoke, and baked brie. The Oysters tasted fresh and came with delicious sauces (cocktail, and I believe an herbed sherry vinaigrette that was excellent. I asked for hot sauce and was loving the sherry vinaigrette with a dab of hot sauce). We didn't love the baked artichoke but I'm not going to take points away, as it was probably perfect, we were just trying it for the first time and didn't really like that preparation, being used to steamed artichokes. My hearts of romaine salad was delicious and we shared a french onion soup, which was also excellent. For dinner we had Chicken Piccata, Crispy Skin Branzino, Fried Chicken, and a dinner Caesar Salad with steak. I won't go into details, except that the Branzino was out of this world, with a super crispy skin that belied the perfectly cook (moist) fish underneath. Everybody else also loved their dinners. I was surprised at how complex and delicious a "basic" meal like Chicken Piccata could taste. There were a few Creme brulees ordered and it was perfect. Again, sorry for the lack of photos (next time), but we were seriously impressed with this place. And I love, love, love that the kitchen is behind glass and open to see. It speaks to their confidence in the cleanliness and professionalism with which they operate.

Our third time here and the food is always incredible! The veggie burger is one of the best I’ve ever had and my boyfriend who is fairly critical of food is always impressed as well. The service tonight(our waiter was Noah) was wonderful, he was very attentive and personable! The patio is a lovely spot as is the inside of the restaurant. Didn’t get the key lime pie tonight but it’s one of the best in Colorado! Can’t wait to visit again

Took an hour drive to meet some friends at 1914 House Restaurant in Niwot, Colorado. It turned out to be a great choice for a pleasant casual dinner. The front desk staff was very friendly, and our table was ready as reserved and requested. Table service was a bit slow-paced, but this allowed us to have nice long conversations with our friends and was never rushed through the entire dining experience. The menu has a variety of choices, but limited in the variations of the entrees, however this was fine in this day of eating out, which allowed the restaurant to prepare each dish very well. Starting with two appetizers and salad to share, followed by entrees of the House-made Fettucine and Wasabi Ribeye. The Panzanella salad was fresh and nicely dressed, but the appetizers of Spinach & Artichoke Dip and the Flash Fried Brussel Sprouts (mildly spicy) were excellent, highly recommended. Both entrees were delicious, with the ribeye having a nice wasabi spice to the grilled steak, and the pasta a rich buttery texture and flavor. Sadly, too much food and had to pass on dessert. Overall, the food was excellent, and a nice place for a casual paced dinner in a restaurant that allowed normal conversations tones. Although the drive was a bit north of Denver, it was a restaurant that we would return to for another visit. Tips for your visit: This restaurant is in the small town of Niwot, make reservations. Also has a large outdoor patio if you desire to sit outside.

Really enjoyed the menu here, no complaints across the table. The old world wine by-the-glass wasn't the best, but drinks were great and they have a nice selection.

The best steak I've eaten. The steak was prepared as it was ordered. The lash fried brussel sprouts were very flavorful with the Thai chili sauce. The atmosphere was awesome! Sat on the patio area. Just a tranquil setting in a small downtown setting. The service provided by LT was superior!

Tried this place out for the first time today. Was super bummed when they removed the surf and turf (website needs to be updated)...but they definitely made up for it with the wasabi ribeye. It was soooooo juicy and full of flavor. Service was excellent. Nice atmosphere for date night. I hope they bring back the surf and turf! ;)
