Satire Brewing Company 12136 Grant Cir unit b, Thornton Brewery • $$

“Very good selection of great beer and yummy stuffed bread options. Amy gave recommendations when asked -a rarity! - and they were good ones. We really enjoyed our visit very much and will be back. Two suggestions: Pint glasses for the price of those beers, maybe iced ones. And, a problem I see often in Colorado - you need bar mats behind that bar - industy standard (for reasons). Go enjoy this place. Excellent fun.”

“Omg!!! I’m not sure how I found this new gem in Thornton but I’m glad I did. I have tried there Mo:Mo, Chicken Tandoori (loved how it comes smoky and sizzling) and (oof) Gulab Jamun, soooo goood. I also did a take out because they’re little too far from me. They have a good happy hour menu and a full bar. I’ll be back for happy hour next time.Service is a top notch, owner (husband and wife) came and introduced himself. Loved this family owned/operated restaurant. I will definitely be back and recommend everyone to try once, you won’t be disappointed. Keep it up guys!!!Parking: Huge lot, you’ll always find a spot.”

Chubby Fish Sushi 10048 Grant St, Thornton Sushi • $$
10048 Grant St, Thornton

“One of the best nights! My recommendation..First off they open at 4:00 pm- but show up early, we were a family of 5 & showed up 20 minutes before the doors opened. BUT worth it!!!! Because the people that showed up 3:50 had to wait 90 minutes. Food was fresh, delicious, fast! Food: the spicy miso ramen, pork bun, lamb skewers- alittle bit of everything- completely worth the $30 each Service: Robot servers made us laugh, the humans were great too! Wished they sold the serving dishes/chopsticks/chubby fish teal branded items as merchandise— I would SO buy sets for our family to enjoy at home! Will be back for a family nice of AYCE sushi and more!”

Capitol Pizza 805 W 88th Ave, Thornton Pizza • $$
805 W 88th Ave, Thornton

16011 Grant St, Thornton

“First time at a Top Golf. We had our in-laws, adult children, and our 9 year old daughter with us. It’s a bit pricey but you can find deals depending on the day. Using the app was a piece of cake, we had staff immediately attending to us, and boy we had a blast. Most of us golfed but not everyone did. I’m telling you- EVERYONE had a great time! It’s March so it is chilly. They have outdoor heaters that worked so well we had to turn it down. Food and drinks were delish! Facility SO CLEAN! Games were easy to navigate and fun for all levels. My husband was a kid in a candy store! 5 stars!!!”

8521-8551 Washington St, Thornton

“Very good value! Fish and shrimp tacos were delicious. The ceviche mixto was fresh, lots of seafood. The tostadas were fresh fried. My only complaint was that instead of giving extra or more of the seafood sauce that was in the tacos on the side they gave regular green and red taco salsa, which was not as good or the right flavor.”

They are willing to make things differently for you if you need it. For me it was making boba tea without the milk (since I am vegan).Vegetarian options: Most dishes can be made with Tofu.”

Outback Steakhouse 497 E 120th Ave, Thornton Steak House • $$
497 E 120th Ave, Thornton

“We got sat as soon as we walked in despite it being a bit busy as we decided on an early dinner (which was still in the lunch hours). Our waitress was awesome. I'm sorry, I can't recall her name. She was a brunette with long-ish hair, glasses and a shapely build and a large belt buckle. She always had refills ready, and our appetizer, salad and dinner were spaced out perfectly so we didn't have to rush eating. She brought out little extras to compliment our salads and dinner. The steaks were cooked and flavored to perfection. The dessert was delicious. My only slight issue was the manager checked in with all the other tables except us. It was not a big deal as we didn't have a negative experience.”

297 E 120th Ave, Thornton

“The food was okay. The fries were cold. We asked for an alcoholic drink that never came and it had to be removed from the tab. All in all either the restaurant is understaffed or the server was not able to keep up. Not sure if I would go there again. I live out of state and was in town for a few days. I don't expect perfection but the food has to be hot to enjoy. The fries went yo waste and I had to settle for water. This is an honest review.”
