- LLibbyDenver / Colorado •5 reviews5.0Dined 3 days agoWe came in for the Valentine’s Day special & everything was so incredible….the food, the drinks, such high quality & for a great price. Our only complaint was the length of time in took to get our drinks when we sat down (about 20ish minutes) & the length of time we waited in between courses. Regardless, it was a busy night & our waiter, Ron, was very kind! It was a special Valentine’s Day!More infoFIRE - The ART Hotel Denver, Curio Collection by HiltonPrice: Expensive• Contemporary American• Downtown / LoDo•4.2
