Lefty’s Front Range Grille

Burger was great. Pleasant surprise for airport food. Bar tender was wonderful, service overall was great.

Well from the looks of things, I’m pretty much going to reiterate the bad service experienced at this place. I walked up and the «cashier» was «stocking» water in the pretty full cooler in the very tight quarters at the entrance. I’m the ONLY person standing at the register. He walks up, looks past me, doesn’t acknowledge me at all and then proceeds to walk away and talk to another employee about «the envelope that can’t walk away». He then walked back to the register and did some key pressing and I politely asked «are you signed in now?» to which he responded with a VERY SNIPPY «I’m waiting on you!» I wasn’t going to go back and forth with this guy on how he didn’t even acknowledge a customer standing patiently waiting on him to stop with the «busy work» so I ordered.
Food:
Well I ordered the Philly Cheesesteak and it was a complete disaster. The bread fell apart in my hand and a fork was now required to consume it. The meat was rather dry and there was an AWFUL cheese like substance on top. I kinda wish I hadn’t watched what was going on behind the glass. The cook was handling raw meat and then simply toweling his hands off before reaching into a plastic white bucket that was filled with what looked to be salad fixings. EWWWWW. He then went to the back and came out with 2 handfuls of raw ground beef and tossed them onto the grill. He then, without washing his plated a meal before putting it on the counter for pick up by the waitress.
I will NEVER return to this place no matter how long I have in the airport, how hungry I am, or even if it’s the ONLY place open. I’d rather get something out of the vending machine. It probably won’t give me food poisoning like my meal on this day did.

Wasn’t wanting to spend a lot so went with the Hot Digity Dog, half the price of a burger and with fries. A nice quarter pound hot dog that was delicious! Pleasantly surprised. Nice little lunch for $ 6.50!

Service was great. I was being indecisive and the waitress on duty made sure to check in with me and give me extra time to order.
Fish tacos were a great snack if you’re looking for a hot, light, prepared food.
I also got a chicken noodle soup — it was a bit oily but ingredients were good. Came out scalding hot and I burned my tongue…
Overall, it’s decent (albeit overpriced) airport food and it’s better than starving.

First time here, trying the California Chicken Grilled sandwich. It was very tasty and delicious. Customer Service is great I wonder why it only has 3 stars. The place has led tvs sort of like a sports bar/​restaurant. Relaxing and quiet place. Food was great. Nice people. Nice atmosphere. We also ordered a chicken wrap and it tasted really good. But for what I can tell from my California Chicken Grilled Sandwich not only delicious but healthy. The Chicken had no extra oil/​sauce, ½ chicken breast. The bacon was perfectly cooked not too much or not too raw. Avocado was a perfect add complement to this sandwich.

This is airport food. The service by the waitresses make it worth stopping by. If you let them know you are tight on time they will help get you on your way faster then the to go line. The wings are breaded and the sauces are a typical bottle flavor. If you order chips and salsa, they come out first and are good for those moments you need to eat now.

This spot has a fantastic Turkey Club! One of the best I’ve ever had in an airport. Lots of meat, fresh avocado, bacon and a light croissant bun. I asked for BBQ sauce on the side and added it on top. Can’t wait to stop here again.

Sit at the bar for good service. The drinks are strong and cheap. The food is also yummy. Portions are small though. The noise level is loud and there is no place to put your bags. Get the fish tacos they are super fresh tasting and flavorful.

The bartender Kim should be fired, she’s a stunning example of someone who should have an $ 8hr desk job. Never in my life have I witnessed such terrible and rude customer service. This woman is offensive. Football Sunday in Denver and you’re refusing to put on the bronco game because you personally don’t like the team? Excuse me? Every person sitting at the bar wanted to watch it. This is Denver, put on what the paying customer want to watch. I have a $ 50 tab, another 2 hours before my flight and I’m now leaving, and not coming back.
Way to go Kim, I’m going to go spend $ 200 at rootdown now.

Lefty’s is your average airport restaurant. They offer the usual selection of american sandwiches, entrees, and sides. And while the food may be unspectacular, it isn’t terrible either.
I initially ordered a grilled fish sandwich but they ran out and I ended up with a veggie philly sandwich (lettuce, tomato, mushrooms, cheese, bell peppers) and a side salad. The filling was decent but the bread was way too soft and my sandwich just disintegrated in my hands. The salad was your standard costco salad.
My friends the food was just ok too. We did have a chili cheeseburger where the cheese didn’t melt. Apparently the inside of the burger was lukewarm.
Service was friendly. One guy was taking orders and bring out food for the entire pace so mad props to him.
Lefty’s isn’t a terrible choice. I’lll only be back if I’m really hungry while waiting for my flight.

After waiting for a server to show up for 10 minutes, I decided to go next door. I typically hang on a bit longer but others around me who had been waiting even longer were evacuating in vocal anger. It was like being in a live Unilocal review.
I was not about to overlook this gift. Those departing saved me time and prevented me from getting worked up. I felt it I should pass on their gift and write up a quick review for you all.
To provide more detail, the waitresses were leisurely and disengaged. The restaurant was only half full. There was no attempt to acknowledge folks as a placeholder until full service could be rendered.
Interestingly, there were four hard rockers with long black hair and black leathers drinking beers and having fun. By their age I must surely have listened to them in my youth but alas I left before I could identify them.

When you mess up nachos, that’s bad. They use the same cheese as a concession stand, the jalapeños were tasteless and weird to eat, the chicken had no flavor at all. It was blah. I wouldn’t eat here again. The waitress was really great and prompt!

The service was below average even for airport service, which makes it one notch above horrible. Our waitress was as friendly as she was bitter that she had to come to work today.
The food choices are simple hamburgers, sandwiches and salads. Luckily for us they make a small hamburger too. If you want it cooked a special way, don’t ask!
Hamburgers come one way, the way the chef wants to cook it. Your only sauce choices are mustard and ketchup, think of McDonalds but 4 times the price.
There is a bar…

Um, yea. This is all you would expect from an airport out of the 1970’s.
Honestly why in the world would DIA renew a lease with a «restaurant» that does not even have an oven.
Seriously, the worst burgers, fish and chips in my life. They make me long for theme park food.
Seriously, if you are Hindu and looking for a place to fast. This is it!

Prices are a bit much for the portion size, but it’s an airport what can ya do?
Overall decent food and service.

Had the worse crispy chicken salad ever! the lettuce was dead, the chicken was a chicken patty cut into long strips with no flavor.
The worse part about this salad was that they gave me a side of garlic bread. The garlic bread was a hot dog bun, cut in ½ with garlic spread, and it was microwaved. It was all soggy and horrible!
The staff seemed to struggle with the small crowd they had so i decided not to bring it to their attention.

Are you at the airport to kill some time? Do you have a 17 hour layover? Then don’t eat here, you will miss your flight and/​or your next birthday. Our waitress was one of the slowest moving service staff I have ever seen. We had 40 minutes to sit down and eat. It took over 20 minutes to get a glass of water, even though «May we have two glasses of water» were the first words out of my mouth. When we only had 15 minutes left I asked how much longer, the reply? «the food should be out any minute, I put in the order before I brought you your drinks». Well I’d certainly have hoped so. I assumed she went out to a well on the other side of airport security to draw our drinks, if she hadn’t put our order in first there wouldn’t have been enough time to plant the lettuce and cultivate the crops to make the salad.
Just eat somewhere else. If I was the owner I’d consider paying more for more nimble staff, this is an airport and time tends to be of the essence. I very stood up and left. I sincerely doubt that I’m the only one that feels that way. Higher quality staff would pay for themselves in added foot traffic.
For what it’s worth, if you are looking to find a place to peacefully await your inevitable demise as that cruel mistress known as «time» gradually sucks the life out of you, as it does us all, then this is the place to be. The salad was pretty good. Although (hint to the owners) I’d have paid more for it in exchange for actual service.

Come here if you like extremely rude wait staff. Tables not cleaned had to request a bar towel to clean my own table after she stopped by and dropped a cocktail napkin in top of the existing spooge. When I asked for a bud light bottle she flung the table tent at me, said no bud light bottles and walked away to take the order of another table that sat down 10 minutes after me. Amanda is the worst server ever. I got up and moved to another section which wasn’t much better.
Just observed another would be victim get up and leave after the inability of getting a servers attention. Having been in food service, I haven’t stiffed a server in decades but they earned the $ 0.00 tip.

So my little one had an evening flight to Nevada and Mickey D’s was closed down! What! All she wanted was a yougurt parfait, which I bought at one of those snack stores when I finally found it for $ 5.99. I wanted a real meal since I have to be there 2 hrs early and wait till her flight takes off cuz she’s a UM. Well it turned out to be a nice surprise though we had to wait a bit and wasn’t sure if they even noticed us sitting there. After that it was all peach’s n cream. Though there’s sighn that says no outside food I figured well I’m ordering 2 things so it should be fine. No one said anything to my little one as she ate her parfait and this is the low down:
Nachos with steak & guacamole on the side — The steak was Delicious! the nachos was a good big portion and my daughter loved it as well. It was nicely balanced with all the ingredients and not soggy at all like most places.
Fish & Chips — The fish was Really good and crunchy with moist fish on the inside. Sooo ono, I could drown it in Malt Vinegar and it was still crunchy, my little girl really liked the tartar sauce with the fries. Our actual waitress was really nice and our waters were topped off constantly.
I say for the price and service especially at the airport, it is worth it. I’ve eaten here before in the past, once in the to go fast area and once sitting in, but for the life of me can’t remember what I had and remember the service being slow and kind of bad.

During our layover we had time to get some food and thankfully they were still serving breakfast and it was worth it.
I had the breakfast tacos with chorizo and my wife had the regular breakfast of eggs, bacon, home fries and biscuit.
Both were very delicious. Airport food is usually terrible and super expensive, this place was reasonably priced for the excellent food that you receive. I will be stopping by again if I come across this place at another airport.
