Lazy Dog Restaurant & Bar - Highlands Ranch, Colorado

Terry Farnham

It has been way too long since we’ve experienced this level of excellence.
Every facet of our meal was amazing!!
A large menu perfectly executed.
The manager brought us a sample of their house made chips !
I highly recommend this restaurant.
One will find this level of service quality and ambience very rarely in today’s environment.

Very accommodating today I asked to sit by the fireplace and even though there wasn’t a server in the section, they sent somebody to wait on me so I could get in and out before rush-hour. Rachel was very very pleasant as a waitress and I really appreciate her warmth and hospitality. I got to enjoy my nail and quiet contemplation near the fireplace. A beautiful setting and once again always great food. Colorado needs a few more lazy dogs. I took the beautiful painting in as well since I raise huskies.

great experience and food and service , forgot the waiter name - My bad . But he checked on us . Food was great and well presented and the young man with a beard and glasses checked on us and treated us well . Had issue with one dish . and they waiter welcomed feedback to pass along to BOH . I had the Breakfast Burger ? and Deviled Eggs and corn dogs super hungry as I flew in from Nashville that morning. Everything was fire ?

2025-01-19 food was good service was slow. Buffalo meatloaf was ok, pablano pork quite tasty. Confetti cake was terrible, sent it back and got butter cake which was good. Quite noisy and started busy.
Had a hiccup with getting our food out late. The manager offered us dessert so we tried the chocolate mousse... It was ok. The ribs were quite dry and not crispy on the edges as expected for fried ribs. The peach sangria was good but very expensive. The plain fries were fantastic and two tapas buffalo nuggets and deviled eggs with candied bacon. The nuggets were good but the eggs needed more love as they were very rubbery and dried out around the edges and the hard boiled yolk was fried in with the egg with the deviled egg topping inside, not very successful. Scotch eggs would be a better choice with that preparation method.

Got together with friends on a weeknight, got seated right away. Wanted to try EVERYTHING on the menu — it all looked so good. Atmosphere was big and woodsy, like a gigantic hunting lodge. Our server was fantastic and made us all feel so welcome. Heartily recommend!

This was our first time to this restaurant. Atmosphere was nice, place was clean and pleasant but nothing special.
Drinks and food are expensive for portions you get after 4pm.
My wife's drink was mostly ice. When we mentioned it to the wait staff the response was "it had a large shot" - like that makes up for getting half the drink.

First visit to a Lazy Dog, won't be our last at this location. I rarely give any establishment 5 stars across the board, but these were earned.

The atmosphere is appropriately described as "lodge-chic." It's appropriate and the ambience never feels forced or cookie-cutter like many chains. It was comfortable and mellow despite a fairly busy Sunday night crowd.

The only thing better than the food (which was outstanding) was the service and attention to detail. Our server (Brandon) was attentive, helpful, friendly and engaged. You really couldn't ask for better. One thing that stood out was the way all of the staff worked together. We had a number of different people bring various dishes, drinks etc. to our table. It ensured nothing sat and waited on a specific server to pick it up and bring it to us. The food was hot, fresh and straight from the open kitchen. That comes from leadership and culture. The kind exemplified by Martell - one of the managers on duty who stopped by, introduced himself and welcomed us as first time guests. And treated us to us to some tasty fresh house-made Parmesan chips. He was working as hard as any of the staff running food etc.

The food: I had the grilled lemon chicken - which was amazing. Cooked perfectly, seasoned appropriately and delivered hot and fresh. Just like the Sweet and Spicy bowl my partner enjoyed. Veggies and such were fresh, crisp and cooked "just right" by the busy kitchen crew - kudos to them as well!

I didn't think to take pictures of the meal - I hadn't planned to write a review, but will definitely add some after our next visit. I did get one of the Butter Cake dessert - which was a perfect way to end the meal.

Huge outdoor space with you can not only dine with your dog but order them an entree as well! Sunday brunch is out favorite time of week to swing through here for food and drink. There is really comfy space around a large fire pit on chiller days.
