The Aurora Summit Restaurant
May 19, 2008 by Bob from Aurora
Overall Rating: 6

• Atmosphere was cozy.
• Overpriced, food quality and service was average at best.

“This was our first visit to Summit to celebrate our 32nd anniversary and I was extremely disappointed and will not return. The food is overpriced, quality and service was average at best. Steaks were cooked properly but lacked flavor especially for what you would expect for a $32 steak. We have had just as good if not better steak and prime rib at the Texas Road house. Grant you the atmosphere is totally different but I will gladly put up with noise to get a a meal were my food is tasteful, service is normally excellent with staff checking on meal and refilling your empty water and tea glass without having to flag your waiter down and price includes your salad and side.”

• The atmosphere and the food.
• The slow service.

“The food was amazing, the service was a little slow, but well worth the wait. Family friendly atmosphere, I take my daughter (6) all the time. I have also had dates there, the romance is alive and well here. The Mexican theme is not over done, but is authentic. I recommend everyone check it out.”

• The green chilies are awesome.
• Attitude of bar tender that can't handle 3 tables.

“On 9/20/07, I went to the bar area and sat at the bar to wait for my date. It was 6:00pm. I sat there for 10 minutes waiting to order a beer. My date showed up so we took a seat in the bar area. Another 10 minutes went by before we were approached by the bar tender. Another 10 minutes before we got our drinks. Forty minutes before we got our food. In the meantime we ordered 1 more drink each and were told 3 times that our drinks were on the way. I know what you might be thinking but there were only 2 other couples in the bar area. I tip on quality of service, not percentage that stems from corporate greed that relies on the customer to make up for their rationalizing a low wage. The bartender took the black book with my tip in it and threw it up on to the bar towards a waitress while saying very loud so every one could hear " here you might as well have that" maybe she should learn what it is actually supposed to take to deserve a good tip instead of trying to embarrass a customer that is dissatisfied with unsatisfactory service.”

Sonoda's Restaurant
Aug 21, 2007 by Candice from Denver/Cherry Creek
Overall Rating: 7
Food:[8] • Service:[7] • Atmosphere:[7]

• Good sushi, traditional and fusion dishes, consistent "chain trained" service.
• Gets extremely crowded on weekends/evenings, for fresher sushi try Sushi Den.

“Sonoda's is a Japanese sushi chain that is one of the four major sushi competitors of the greater Denver area. It's the most widespread, with ever increasing locations. The sushi is usually fresh, though as with most sushi restaurants a few thousand miles from any coastline, certain days of the week are better than others (hint: Friday). Non-sushi selections are good, with some creative Asian-fusion appetizers and traditional favorites like edamame and miso. This place is great for sushi inductees as well, with highly Americanized rolls like Philly, California and Denver varieties. Expect to wait a long time for a seat, even at the bar, any day from Thursday to Saturday.”
