Cast Iron Tavern: Discover Comfort Food and Craft Beer in Golden, CO

My daughter and I spent the day in evergreen enjoying the mountains. We decided to have dinner in Golden. Tried to find a dog friendly restaurant and cast iron tavern is the place we decided upon! The moment we walked in the hostess greeted us and knew we wanted to sit outside she was very apologetic that the heaters weren’t out. But she sat us near the fire pit! The atmosphere was perfect. We ordered the pesto deviled eggs. What a beautiful mixture of flavors. I’ll always make mine this way! I had the candied bacon burger. It was amazing but the show stopper was the sweet potato fries! oh my gosh. You MUST try them. Do yourself a favor and go to CIT for an amazing meal.

Everything about our visit was amazing! One of the best espresso martinis I’ve ever had. The Barada and beet appetizer hit the spot. A friend ordered the deviled eggs, which is not something I would usually get, but I’m so glad he did because they were delicious. I also had the cast-iron chicken which was to die for. The vibe and the service were 10 out of 10. To top it off, I love supporting a locally owned business.

Ash took great care of us for lunch. Food was a good price point, delicious, and the atmosphere was chill enough to relax.

The food was outstanding! I had the chicken & bacon mac, delicious! One of my friends ordered the ribeye, cooked to perfection. The candied bacon is a must! There have been reviews about it being kind of pricey, but I think the prices are very fair considering the quality of food and portion sizes. Great beers on tap too!

This place was packed on a Saturday night! We were able to join the wait-list before we arrived, which helped. When we got there, we realized it was the start of restaurant week so not sure that had anything to do with it. They are participating with a select 3 course menu for $35. Had the pear salad, ratatouille and bread pudding as part of that and all were delicious especially their famous bread pudding (and usually I don't like bread pudding). My boyfriend had the salmon risotto which was phenomenal. Cocktails looked nice too but have to come back for those. I can't believe I didn't know this place existed when I lived within walking distance but I'm glad I know about it now!

Cast Iron Tavern is truly our go to place. The food is always excellent, the service is warm and attentive, and the atmosphere makes you want to stay a little longer. Every visit is consistently amazing, which is why we keep coming back again and again.

I would recommend to call and make a reservation ahead of time due to this being a popular spot. The food was amazing! It was presented to us beautifully along with being well flavored. I would recommend this place for a casual date night or dinner with friends.

I enjoyed their steak sandwich. Everyone seemed pleased with the food. They had the Winter Olympics playing on a screen near us.
