Best Cozy Restaurants in Highlands Ranch / Lone Tree

A Cozy Christmas Delight at Fireside Bar and Grill During the “Blazing Bright at the Inverness” event, my friend and I enjoyed a heartwarming evening sipping hot cocoa at Fireside Bars and Grills. The ambiance was enchanting, blending holiday cheer with the magic of beloved Christmas films. The hot cocoa, rich and velvety, was the perfect companion as we soaked in the festive spirit. Every corner of the venue transformed into a cinematic wonderland, making us feel like part of the stories themselves. Fireside Bars and Grills is a must-visit for anyone looking to embrace the season in the coziest and most delicious way possible!

Our server Amanda was great, as were the others who were part of the outstanding service. Our group of six ordered various menu items, all of the food was well prepared, delicious and the presentations of it were lovely. We very much enjoyed our Christmas dinner there with friends and family. Whether for holidays, special occasions or dinners any day, Chianti Ristorante has a very special Italian ambiance, which reminds us of the places we went to in Italy, and is a wonderful place to go.

This restaurant far exceeded any expectations I had as it was highly recommended to me. The food was absolutely exceptional. The scallops were the best I’ve ever had and the Chilean Seabass was cooked to perfection. It was my birthday and they treated me so well. The ambience was incredible and I was impressed that the noise levels were not too high in the bar and lounge area and great music choice playing. I would definitely return to this restaurant Other perks: Complimentary valet. Easy to drive to. Modern, open vibe.

We were 9 family members celebrating Christmas and had lovely food with an excellent waiter. We all want to return soon. The lamb and filets got top reviews, as well as the butter fish and salmon. The restaurant was quite busy, but the atmosphere was warm and cozy. It was a night for our family to remember.

This is one of my favorite restaurants. It never disappoints. We ordered the steak tartare and it was excellent with just the right toast points. And the Caesar salad, the bits of parm and croutons are perfect. Also, the asparagus with hollandaise is about the best I've ever eaten. Our table also ordered the Prime lunch special and the steak looked perfect. They have so many wonderful things on the menu, and I want to try them all.
