Reviews for Slater's 50/50 in Denver, CO
I will not return to this restaurant. I have to say the food ideas are good, but the event was poorly executed. 1. We arrives... at 11:30am on Sunday. 5 tops in the entire restaurant were seated. Asked for a table for 4, as friends were parking. They firstasked if we had a reservation, then said they could not seat us until the entire party was present. The restaurant has almost 30tops. By the end of our meal only 3 more tables were seated. 2. The drinks were hard to order. Every item we asked for on thetap menu was not available. With sincere apologies the taps have changed, yet somehow, the list of 8.5x11 undecorated tapchoices was not updated. The two drinks we finally ordered tasted watered down. My friend wanted a non-alcoholic beer which theydid not have. 3. The service, it was not possible to seat us until we were all present, but ordering drinks at the bar requiredthat we close out at the bar before being seated. Then once seated our bar tender was our server. I counted 10 different peopleon staff in the restaurant dining area. Yet it took an unreasonable amount of time to order food. The table two booths away wasseated just as we walked in, but was still waiting for a server to take their order. 2:1 ratio of servers to tables and the bartender is taking orders? 4. The food arrived, one plate, breakfast nachos was cold. The others were mediocre so I gave you twostars. The fiery challenge was not that tasty and the 50/50 meat tasted dense and old. The artichoke garlic dip was good andfrench fries were fresh and crisp. o Overall the menu was creative and well executed. My overall experience started with adifficult feeling and was reinforced with poorly executed cuisine. For $20 plates I'd expect a little more. Read more
Stopped in for dinner after a day of hiking. Had some drinks and food. Me and my wife split the Nashville Hot Chicken Sandwich... and our friend got the burger with chili and chips on it. Both were good and you MUST upgrade to Garlic Parmesan fries, they arevery good here. We didn't have room for dessert but the S'mores shake looked amazing. Was recommended this place by a local inthe art district as well as saw on TikTok. Definitely worth stopping in Read more
The food was amazing from the sweet potato fries w/ pumpkin dipping sauce, all the way to the Beef Pattie’s that are cooked to... your preference. The staff was very friendly and welcoming! <3 very helpful :) definitely will be back in the near future. Read more
Burgers were excellent & fresh, tasted very high quality. New favorite burgers for sure. The fries were meh and the service was... annoyingly slow with only 1 waitress working on a Saturday. She was great though and managed as well as she could. I will def goback for a good burger and shake combo???? Read more
First time trying Slater’s 50/50. Burgers were pretty darn good. The poke nachos weren’t bad, but not as good as we’ve had... at other restaurants in town. Fries were decent. Milkshake was the bomb. Definitely had a sports bar feel with several loud TVsall over the dining room. It’s the play-offs so everyone was really into it. Not the place to go for a romantic dinner or ifyou want to be able to talk with your table. That being said, the loud TVs didn’t ruin our experience aside from not beingable to hear our waiter very well. My wife got the 50 Alarm burger. It had some heat, but wasn’t as hot as she was hoping. Itcomes with an egg, but she doesn’t like yoke. They weren’t able to make it with just egg whites. That was a bummer. I hadthe Hi Brow and it was one of the better burgers I’ve eaten. I really enjoyed the blue cheese/Swiss mix. The jalapeño jellyhad a kick, but I’ma wimp when it comes to spicy stuff. The s’mores milkshake is a meal in itself. Highly recommend, but youwill fill up before your food comes. We will definitely go back, maybe for lunch or on a night there isn’t a denver teamplaying on tv. Read more
Been wanting to check out this place after I heard about the 50/50 burgers. Not a lot of free parking around but not a surprise.... After he did park and walk there, did then see sign that the building they are in has $5 parking. Good to know for next time. It was a Saturday night and they a bit busy but they seated us quickly. Note to self: next time make reservations onlineespecially on Fridays and Saturdays. Not very big with a couple outside tables and combination of tables, booths, and barseating. Tables seat four, the booths maybe six snugly, and a semi private table in a separate area that couple get a largerparty seated. Definitely make a reservation for that one. No physical menus with the exception of small cards detaining themilkshake of the month and the burger of the month. The rest is found from QR codes you scan to get their website. I ordered theoriginal 50/50 and my friend a bacon bbq burger. Food arrived quickly. My burger tasted good. You could taste the bacon blendedinto the burger. The burger had a great deal of char in it. Usually I like a bit of it for flavor and texture but there was abit too much giving the burger a burned meat bite to it. The sunny side egg was a bit over cooked so not that much runny yolkand the egg looked on the small or medium size. A good amount of fries but the texture was off and the salt and pepper seasoningwas a bit light but the special house ketchup blend was very good. My friend said his burger was excellent and liked the amountof char on his burger. His burger was not the bacon blend and appeared larger then my burger not by that much. Not reallysurprised since mine had the bacon blend. His bacon in his sandwich looked very think and well cooked. An interesting featurewas when you get the bill, you can scan another QR code and then pay the bill on your phone. That was a first. I hope peopledon’t then do a dine and dash saying that they paid the bill. Will probably be back next time in the area to try Read more
