Your review was spot on. I worked at Denver International Airport for many years and ate at Elways a few times. I always thought it was decent, but nowhere near the quality that it promised and not worth the money. The original Elways restaurant in Cherry Creek is completely different. It is excellent, but the airport location (and there’s apparently a second location that just opened in the airport as well) has always been underwhelming. To answer your question, the problem is that it’s airport food. There are a number of airport versions at DEN of successful local restaurants and in most cases I’ve found them to be mere shadows of the real thing at their off-airport locations.
That place was absolutely terrible. The service was awful and literally that meat seemed like a $9 cut you’d get at like Walmart. Place was an embarrassment.
@@oldironsides4107 He got the cheapest cut he could find on the menu so he could bash it. Any chef will tell you they cut back on salt when a higher fat content is in the meat. The fact he doesn't know this, nor did he know that he wouldn't get a sharper knife at an airport tells me he isn't well traveled, nor does it seem he's knowledgeable about different cuts of steak.
It's in an airport though dude, lol.The boulder beer company didn't even have draft beer. just lays potato chips and expensive medicore sandwiches. But when having a few beers before parting off with my auntie, it wasn't bad service wise. but again, you gotta remember that it's an airport.
Hey! I’m a hostess at the Elway’s in Cherry Creek North Denver and I’m so sorry about your experience at the airport! Next time you’re in town, please come visit our location we would love to have you and make your experience better:)
Been to all three Elways and yes the airport location could use some staff training. Also I had the NY steak at the airport and yes it doesn't come close to the quality of the Cherry Creek or Ritz Carlton locations.
I have been to the 2 elway’s here in Denver, I live in Colorado, but to tell you the truth, I would never go to a class restaurant our steakhouse in an airport. I am telling you go to the Cherry Creek location and you will have a way better experience and a piece of shit steak that looked like, sorry went through that and I tell you if John finds that out shit will hit the fan. Let us know what you think of your next time going and getting a steak at the house of elway
I've lived in Colorado for almost 25 years. While I enjoyed watching Elway play football, his restaurants are nothing special; the food is overpriced and not the highest quality. He's a football player, not a chef, and he's cashing in on his name.
Been to the Cherry Creek North Elway's several times; definitely not a tourist trap, mostly (almost exclusively) locals and the food is solid. My in-laws (3rd gen. Denverites) even hosted our engagement party there. The best description is a "modern" steakhouse; more Flemings than Mortons. Guessing the DIA location is an outlier. Most airport locations are a step below their Main St. counterparts.
Went here while in Denver and thought my brain broke because the steak was so bad. Thank you for sharing this honest review of an overpriced, overhyped steak. I trust your tastebuds always.
@@SooperSouljerhe definitely should be fired. An embarrassment to the establishment. Shouldn’t be in the hospitality business, if he has no concept of hospitality.
@edntz I live near a tourist, urban area Intl Airport 🛫. 80% of the places, QSRs, bars are sub par or about middle level in terms of QC, service. Staffs, workers do not expect tips or good treatment; Chili's Hooters Dennys Etc so the standards are low 📉.
I’ve been to every location of Elways many many times. Service has been consistently poor for years but the food is amazing. Cherry Creek location is the best
Next time you're in Denver, you HAVE to try the Buckhorn Exchange! Various meat dishes galore from many different animals! Plus the Rocky Mountain Oysters are to die for! And they're not the shellfish oysters either!
Most airport restaurants in America have very poor service. When they get very busy they don’t have enough people to cover the rush. It’s all about the profits!
Hi UA! Love your content and the growth. I’m sad to see the rude service - I live in Denver and always felt that ppl at that airport can be rude… Ty for your honesty in your reviews! Also, the story is that John Elway, a great quarterback, was not so kind himself… might be a link there. What do you think, UA? 😊
I once got off a flight to Hawaii with a HANGRY disposition and found and got a pork sammich from a vendor at the Kona Airport. I could have hugged that lady. It was $5 and the BEST BBQ I ever had. Any woman would have looked on in envy as I devoured it. God bless parking lot vendors. I just got a dozen tamales today in the Walmart parking lot. I LOVE LITTLE OLD LADIES SELLING ME THEIR FOOD!
I was going to say, I've never eaten at Elway's (any location), but your expectations half to drop dramatically in the airport. You are guaranteed to pay more, the menu is guaranteed to be reduced, the staffing is guaranteed to be worse, which means worse service and worse food.
Stayed at the Ritz when I was in town and ate at Elways inside of the hotel, it was one the best or the best experiences I've ever had with friends at a steakhouse. The airport looks like a complete opposite and that is a shame to give the other locations a bad name.
Expectations at an airport restaurant must be significantly tempered. In most airports the employees are actually contractors from the company who purchased the license for that location (e.g. HMS).
I used to work there and they’d cut corners to get the product out. The kitchen staff also didn’t care about the food at all. Seasoning is premixed steak seasoning that is mostly pepper. Broiler is used for the steaks but for some reason they don’t like to give grill marks or a proper sear. Maybe new training should be in order but will it really help? All airport restaurants run like that from my experience.
Poor presentation. You’d think they’d put something on the plate with the steak, a couple leaves of lettuce and a slice of tomato, a couple onion rings or a few twigs of parsley?
Hi UA again keep it up love your channel. They need to literally clean out the entire staff the dude throwing your $61.00 Sirloin steak on the table lol 😂
i was in the Tokyo airport onetime and had a 12 hour wait for my flight back to Seattle....there was one amazing casual food place and i got a delicious beef noodle bowl that came with a few sides, like broth and an egg roll and for only 8 bucks...that was back in 2019 so it may have went up quite a bit , but i was expecting to pay 20 or 30$ for decent airport food, especially in japan
That was definitely a USDA choice (maybe even select) from their version of CTown. When I heard the server reply to the first time I knew it wasn't gonna be a good time...lol When you're back in NY, I hope you give Christo's steakhouse in Astoria a try, UA! As I mentioned in your previous videos, I haven't been there in quite a while so I'm curious if their quality still holds up 🤔. In any event, that area has quite a few restaurants that are worth a try!
hi UA I love your video reviews and opinions on the food but I was wondering when your at some of these fancy restaurants do you ever run into problems with anyone making your videos? I was just curious. Well keep up the good work, Big fan here.
Good question. I used to actually. Some nicer restaurants will not let you film if they know it's for a video. That's why I stopped using my tripod so I can pass as a tourist.
The original Elway's Steakhouse not far from the Bronco's Club house of yesteryear around Greenwood Village, is just not the same as what you have experienced at DIA. Laying out $100.00 + for a meal used to give you an awesome experience. Now I really wonder if one needs to be more careful. I used to like the Pour La France locations at DIA or any of the Credit Card Lounges available today may offer a better value.
Lesson learned: don't order a steak at an airport restaurant. That steak was prime, alright... a PRIME RIPOFF! Hey UA, I'm glad you didn't order the "Rhode Island" Calamari (in Denver, ugh). Great video!
Been to that airport 100 times. The prices at Elways are insane, never eaten there. Thank you for the review, glad I never pissed away $80 on a lousy meal.
"it's a salad....they are all different" LOL Sorry man that was bad service. The waiter is making tips, you would think he would do a better job. I live in Denver and never noticed that there was an Elways at the airport LOL. I am sure the real restaurant in Crerry Creek is better.
The Elways steakhouse in south Denver is decent. Way better than the airport location. The staff was more friendly, the menu was bigger and the food was maybe a 7/10. With that said, there are way better steakhouses in Denver
I worked at the very first location as a dishwasher when I was 19. Within the first 6 weeks everyone from myself to the head chef were turned over lmao 🤣
I'm sorry for your bad experience - from the waiter - the wait time - then underdressed salad - and then the steak arrives in an untimely manor - to find out it is very sub-par. I bet they don't care much about the cuts of supposed prime cuts as they well more pub like fare than what is typical of a steak house. Well darn, but the big positive note of this video: You ! Always so polite and engaging, even when it wasn't reciprocal Too bad because the server could have learned a lesson in kindness from you had he not had such an attitude. Cheers to your next eats and thank you for the heads up on this joint LOL ! m.
The steak should come out precut if you're not allowed a knife 😂. Also, rude wait staff yet they want tips WOW. I would have asked for dressing on the side. Evidently, not a good place to have a steak house
There's a Palm's Steakhouse (The Palm Bar & Grille) at JFK Airport here in NY. I've never been to that particular location since I always go to AmEx's Centurion Lounge whenever I'm traveling out of JFK, but I'm thinking about trying it out since I have been to other locations and I do like their steaks.
@@seka1986I just recently took a look at all my receipts of my past steakhouse visits(yes I keep Restaurant receipts! lol), and Steaks have increased in price by almost 25% on average since 2018... Also, my Grocery bill is up 30% since 2018.... We desperately need change. How are we any different from 3rd world countries if people cant even afford to buy groceries....
I went to the downtown location and had their biscon steak and it was pretty good. Their Cesar quality looked about the same and I enjoyed the crouton but thought the dressing was a big heavy on the anchovie flavoring. I give my experience a 8.7/10 considering my service was quite good at the downtown spot.
I recently went there (09/2024) and thought it was a good experience. The steak was really tasty, albeit on the pricey side. My server was excellent and the manager was really friendly as we chatted about baseball for a couple of minutes. YMMV.
I’ve been to Elways at Cherry Creek in Denver and the food and service was phenomenal. Unfortunately this was not your experience at the airport but if you are ever back into it is worth going back to just not the one at the airport

The Elways steakhouse in south Denver is decent. Way better than the airport location. The staff was more friendly, the menu was bigger and the food was maybe a 7/10. With that said, there are way better steakhouses in Denver
I'd go in there wearing a Joe Montana (#16) or 49ers jersey, as a reminder who owned Elway in Superbowl XXIV. 😇🤣
timmy smith approves
Elway was 0 - 4 SB before his back to back so plenty of teams owned him
@@FeiLi-i9z 0-3 actually, but I get your drift.
o yea i’m sure the staff full of people that probably don’t give a shit about John Elway would totally respect your “own” 🤦🏾♂️😂
I worked at the very first location as a dishwasher when I was 19. Within the first 6 weeks everyone from myself to the head chef were turned over lmao 🤣
Lol on the knife! I'm surprised they didn't give you the little packet with the spork, napkin, and salt & pepper.
Its cuz its an Airport.. Been to a couple Airport Steakhouses that are like this. No sharp knife for you!
I'm curious if the restaurant at Cherry Creek mall is any better. I used to drive past it all the time. Always heard it was good but expensive.
"Its just a salad"..... I would have stood up and left right there.
i mean he’s got a point. you can only make romaine lettuce and caesar dressing so good lol..
I'm sorry for your bad experience - from the waiter - the wait time - then underdressed salad - and then the steak arrives in an untimely manor - to find out it is very sub-par. I bet they don't care much about the cuts of supposed prime cuts as they well more pub like fare than what is typical of a steak house. Well darn, but the big positive note of this video: You ! Always so polite and engaging, even when it wasn't reciprocal Too bad because the server could have learned a lesson in kindness from you had he not had such an attitude. Cheers to your next eats and thank you for the heads up on this joint LOL ! m.
The steak should come out precut if you're not allowed a knife 😂. Also, rude wait staff yet they want tips WOW. I would have asked for dressing on the side. Evidently, not a good place to have a steak house
They robbed him with that steak 😂😂😂
There's a Palm's Steakhouse (The Palm Bar & Grille) at JFK Airport here in NY. I've never been to that particular location since I always go to AmEx's Centurion Lounge whenever I'm traveling out of JFK, but I'm thinking about trying it out since I have been to other locations and I do like their steaks.
$61.00 for tasteless meat not good! Probably not prime?
I feel like I deserve a refund just for watching that meal.
Why is the price so expensive?
To be fair, steakhouses are expensive in general and it's also the airport
Bidenomics
@@seka1986I just recently took a look at all my receipts of my past steakhouse visits(yes I keep Restaurant receipts! lol), and Steaks have increased in price by almost 25% on average since 2018... Also, my Grocery bill is up 30% since 2018.... We desperately need change. How are we any different from 3rd world countries if people cant even afford to buy groceries....
@@seka1986you beat me to it
I went to the downtown location and had their biscon steak and it was pretty good. Their Cesar quality looked about the same and I enjoyed the crouton but thought the dressing was a big heavy on the anchovie flavoring. I give my experience a 8.7/10 considering my service was quite good at the downtown spot.
I would eat a Big Mac before going g there
A Big Mac at an airport would cost $20 and the eating area would be filthy! Drinks would cost $5 and fries $10!
@@3js312 Right. And it would still be way better, and better value than that 61 dollar slab of peppered leather.
I recently went there (09/2024) and thought it was a good experience. The steak was really tasty, albeit on the pricey side. My server was excellent and the manager was really friendly as we chatted about baseball for a couple of minutes. YMMV.
You don't want Gordon Ramsey in your sports team and likewise you don't want a sports star cooking your meal.
Gordon Ramsay is actually a pretty great athlete. I've never seen Elway cook anything though.
To think John Elway is the "chef" is laughable. REALLY?!
I was just in denver airport didnt have a long enough layover to sit down and eat but doesnt look like i missed out on much lol
You should do a video on Rocky Mountain oysters
I’ve been to Elways at Cherry Creek in Denver and the food and service was phenomenal. Unfortunately this was not your experience at the airport but if you are ever back into it is worth going back to just not the one at the airport
I've been to Shanahans, Guard and grace and 801 in Denver. Denver is a tremendous steakhouse city and I'm guessing elway's is on par
Guard and Grace is my favorite
cant go wrong with troy guard
The Elways restaurant downtown Denver is good
Waiter has no idea……
I just think his attitude is he doesn’t care.., wrong way when you work for tips, and can be doing way better, based on your behavior!
That waiter sucked!! I've been a server for 35 years. That was unacceptable. Especially at those prices.. Hard to get good help these days.
That was hard to watch with the servers. Sorry. But I do enjoy your content . Yeah Bradley cooper !
Keeping in context with other airport restaurants, it was great when I went there about five years ago.
