Carne RiNo

I really enjoyed this restaurant! The atmosphere was vibrant and playful, with funky retro decor that gave it a fun, laid-back vibe. One of my favorite parts was the Latin/South American influence throughout the menu—I’m a total sucker for chimichurri. For apps, we tried the bread service, brown butter noodles, and creamed spinach. I honestly could’ve done without the noodles—that dish was pretty basic. But the bread and spinach were excellent! Now, onto the main event: the meats. We ordered the Brazilian picanha and the Colorado lamb, and both were phenomenal. Well seasoned, expertly cooked, and incredibly tender. The lamb, in particular, was some of the best I’ve ever had. Portions were slightly smaller than I expected, but the quality definitely made up for it. I also ordered the Panther’s Milk cocktail which was sweet, creamy, and delicious. A perfect contrast to pair with the savory meats. For dessert, we went with the baked Alaska. I’d never had one before and didn’t quite know what to expect. It was interesting but a bit too chaotic in terms of flavors and textures for my taste. Probably wouldn’t order it again. TL;DR: Come for the meats—they’re absolutely worth it!

Really great experience, the food was delicious and our server Lundyn was awesome. Took my in-laws who were our first Denver visitors and the experience did not disappoint. The meat was cooked to perfection! Got truly blue and rare steaks with rich flavor and awesome sauces (where applicable). The various chimichurri sauces were amazing. Aside from the mains, get the caliente fries, so good and dip in the other sauces besides ketchup. Starers were good, seems like you can’t go wrong. The octopus was perfectly cooked and good flavor but was a pretty small piece, probably the only downside. Highly highly recommend Carne, worth the hype, such good food. (Replacing a review I did on the wrong account).

Love love love. So happy Denver is stepping up its food game always. Food was incredible. Everything we got was top notch! Also loved the cocktails made with local spirits - well blended and balanced. Get the lamb, the brownie, and the Caesar salad!

Me and my wife celebrated my birthday here Saturday night. The food was outstanding. The vibe and atmosphere were great. The special was Australian Waygu and it may be the best steak we’ve ever had. And our service was exceptional. Dani and Lundyn were top notch. Overall, it was outstanding. It may be my new favorite restaurant ever. Very well done.

If you’re looking for a standout dining experience in Denver that combines bold flavors, an upscale yet approachable atmosphere, and genuinely exceptional service, look no further than Carne Rino. From the moment you walk in, you’re greeted by a vibrant ambiance that’s both warm and modern. Whether you’re here for a date night, a celebration, or just treating yourself to something special, Carne Rino delivers on all fronts. The first thing that hits you is the scent from the kitchen—smoky, savory, and undeniably appetizing. The menu is a meat lover’s dream, with expertly prepared cuts that showcase a real respect for quality ingredients. The ribeye was cooked to absolute perfection—charred just right on the outside, juicy and tender inside, and seasoned with a masterful touch. The house chimichurri added a zesty punch that elevated every bite. We also tried the short rib, which fell apart with the touch of a fork and came with a rich, deeply flavored reduction. But what really turned a great meal into a phenomenal night was Maddi, the bartender. From the moment we sat down, she was welcoming, knowledgeable, and incredibly engaging. Maddi took the time to ask about our preferences before recommending a cocktail that turned out to be a new favorite—the kind of drink that you remember long after the glass is empty. Her balance of professionalism and friendly charm made us feel instantly at home. It’s rare to find someone who’s not only great at their job but clearly loves what they do. Maddi’s enthusiasm for the menu, her attention to detail, and her ability to read the room and tailor the experience made her a true standout. Even as the bar filled up, she never missed a beat—every guest around us was getting the same high level of care and attention. That kind of consistency is no accident; it speaks to the culture of service that Carne Rino seems to embody. We ended our night with the chocolate torte, which was decadent without being overly sweet, and paired beautifully with an espresso martini Maddi recommended. I’m still dreaming about both. Carne Rino doesn’t just serve incredible food—it creates a complete experience. And with people like Maddi behind the bar, you’re guaranteed to have a night that’s as memorable for the hospitality as it is for the cuisine. Denver is lucky to have this gem. We’ll be back again—and again.

steakhouse of the world,” and honestly? That’s exactly what it feels like—warm, welcoming, and full of flavor. You can roll in for happy hour, dinner, birthdays, or even just a random Tuesday and feel right at home. We came in to check out the new summer menu and were seriously impressed. Highlights for me: • Argentinian Bife de Chorizo – perfectly seasoned and grilled, served with a smoky romesco. • Burrata – creamy and dreamy with heirloom tomatoes and avocado mousse. • Roasted Seasonal Veggies – surprisingly one of my faves (needed that balance after all the meat!) • Green Chile Queso on the happy hour menu—yes, yes, YES. They also had an Australian Wagyu special that absolutely delivered. The service was fantastic, the cocktails were great, and the food was memorable across the board. Carne is officially on my go-to dinner list. 🔥

Great experience here. Bar tender served us a complementary glass of champagne when they found out it was our anniversary. Great cocktails. Food was amazing, and their interactive wine selection process was cool and different. Wine options were small but really good. Great value for gourmet food and a great experience. Shout out to Maddie and Eric who made our experience awesome and memorable! Prepare to take food home with you because the portions are huge. We'll be coming back.

Went in to celebrate my birthday and had a great time. Service was friendly and the place looked nice. Interesting cocktails; I enjoyed mine but can't recall much specific about it. The big drink option was something called "table side martini," which we did not try, despite the intriguing name The cauliflower dish was exquisite, with an interesting mix of flavors. The potatoes were cut a little unevenly, so the thicker pieces were a tad undercooked. Someone in the kitchen doing prep might need a bit more practice with their knifework, or maybe to try using a mandolin. The meat dishes were, as I would expect from a place called Carne, perfectly done. The sausage and steak dish came with a green sauce that was good enough to eat by the spoonful. Big fan. The ribs had a great char and a brighter and more viscous green chile sauce, that, while delicious, wasn't quite as good as the other one. Sadly, that's all we tried, as we ran out of room. They brought me a birthday creme brulee with a few tart pieces of citrus embedded in the crust. I'm lactose intolerant, so I generally try to avoid things with that much cream... I instead ate the whole thing and considered licking the ramekin afterward. No regrets.

Honestly: Fabulous. Wonderful. Excellent. Expensive. Great Splurge. So Meaty. It's funny; my wife and I have been in this space twice - though each time as a different restaurant. And both times it was a last minute "well this place is open let's hope it's good" and both times we had absolutely incredible times. My wife found it via google search, it sounded meat forward and otherwise exceptionally delicious and (spoiler) it was all that and more. We arrived and seated ourselves at the bar, the bartender was fairly new to working the bar - he usually worked the floor - and was exceptionally knowledgeable about the menu, quick with drinks, wonderful guy to be our server for the evening and we felt lucky to have him. It was bustling but not too loud - good vibes, good energy. We could have a conversation at the bar without an issue, but it definitely didn't feel dead. Old fashioned's were consumed and they were delightful. Wine was consumed and it was fabulous. We even spotted a super weird bottle of liquor on the shelf and he let us smell it and take a look at it. Really fun! But the food! Oh! - the meats. We began, as one does, in appetizer land. Giggling, we ordered the Octopussy (it's incredible, it's just SO good) Beef tartare, and then with our steak we got fries (yum!) and seasonal vegetables. All of that perfect complements to the multiple steaks we INHALED. First, the Argentinian Chorizo, then the Brazilian Picanha, then something else that I don't remember because their menu is new! They change up their meats! How cool is that! The food was to die for, we loved splitting things up into little flights for our tastebuds, we just had a really excellent experience and we're excited to go back sometime soon.

Absolutely terrible experience. This place is a complete joke. After responding to my one-star review asking me to email them, I followed up on 1/22--only to be completely ignored. That alone speaks volumes about their lack of care. To make matters worse, we were the ONLY ones sitting at the bar, and they still managed to forget our food order--twice. Instead of doing their job, the bartender was too busy socializing with friends. And when we finally brought up how bad the service was, they suddenly turned rude as we were leaving. Save yourself the frustration and avoid this place at all costs. Absolutely not worth it.

The food was very good, obviously! However, our server was awful(shorter female with red hair). We didn't get our drink order taken or greeted for 15 minutes. We asked the host for help in getting our order and he came to take it for us. Midway through, she strangely interrupted us ordering with the host that came over and sarcastically explained she has other tables than us. Like just let him finish taking our order so it's not so awkward. Also because she couldn't handle her section and was late to us, she never really walked us through the menu(it was our first time here). We ordered the shrimp cocktail and it came out as like a ceviche. It tasted good but not was we thought we were ordering, our server should have explained what we were ordering since it's not a traditional presentation. At the high price point, I wouldn't come back strictly because of the service.

Service was the stand out here. When chatting with the server about blue cheese stuffed olives - she brought out additional. When a server wasn't saw us questioning something on the menu - they stopped to help. When my husband wanted a bourbon list, the bartender came to the table and walked through the selections with tasting notes on a small distillery's option. Meats were great and responsibly priced. Martini cart was adorable and a good value.

New kid on the block but a legion in the industry that took over the old Italian spot. This is a much welcome addition to the neighborhood for an elevated steak house - but I kind of like their Peruvian style chicken here too. But - come during happy hour for an old fashion and burger too! Tip - if you want a skyline city view ... get a second floor table and there are always one counter no reservation table at the top and an open seating at the bar on the first floor.

Another meal to be remembered fondly. The night we ate here we had Chef Dana Rodriquez in house with her amazing touch and professional expertise highlighted everything we tried. The cocktail list is great and tasteful. The burrata salad was fresh, creamy and with fresh arugula divine. The tuna tartare tostada was beautiful -crunchy and umami. The risotto creamy rich and perfect for a winter night. The beef rib with mole was rich and satisfying. Wow! I like the wine concept. On the wall are several wines, each with a (shoe) tag - pick one you might like, check the price and take it to your table. No pretense here. Markup was quite reasonable, I thought and the selections were perfect accompaniments to Chef Danas menu items. Parking always a challenge in RiNo.

I went to a Tasting Collective dinner here, so it was a little bit of a different experience. I thought it was great. The decor is unique and interesting. We had a set menu, but I don't like things that are really spicy and they did a great job accommodating me. The service was top-notch. The chef spoke to us and she is clearly passionate about the restaurant and is very involved. She talked about how they try to source locally and how they can accommodate a lot of dietary restrictions and it is very clear on the menu. Looking forward to coming back sometime.

Incredibly phenomenal and amazing! Cant wait to go back. Eclectic.. throw back. Next trip to Denver and I'm there!

One of my new favorite restaurants in Denver! I dream about steak ALL the time, as it's something I love to eat but don't create enough opportunities for. I've been wanting to try Carne since it opened, so my friend and I came here for early happy hour. It was empty at 4pm obviously, but I recommend making reservations regardless. We both shared Oysters, Beef Tiradito, and Fondue. The Tiradito, as recommended by our waiter, was incredible. Disappointed by the Fondue, but let's pretend I didn't eat any. The rosemary-black pepper rubbed 8oz Bavette with chimichurri was the highlight. Perfectly cooked medium rare and definitely my go-to food when I need a pick-me-up. The inside of the restaurant is spacious. The high ceilings feel luxurious. Lots of staff seem newer, but everyone is nice. I enjoyed the cocktails, ordering one of each from the happy hour menu. I'd be curious to try more items on the menu, but I think the Beef Tiradito and Bavette were an unbeatable combination. I look forward to coming back!

I love this place! It's vibey but cute you can go casual or trendy doesn't matter. They have great drinks, a delish menu -esp the fish! And an amazing martini. I'll be back Forsure. The service was great as well!

The location, the vibes- the atmosphere of this place immediately took me back home, even though I was on vacation. It felt like I was at a typical Sunday brunch spot. I was immediately greeted and seated upon arrival. Our waiter was great- he was super friendly, gave lots of suggestions, and attempted to get me a biscuit even though there wasn't one on the menu ¯\_(ツ)_/¯. A+ for effort! We ordered the steak and huevos, a classic that can so easily be messed up, but here it was perfect- the saltiness on the steak, the yolkiness of the egg, the crispness of the fry... PERFECTION. We also ordered the quiche which was definitely great with the green chile. I just wish it was a tad bit bigger.

Absolutely incredible! The atmosphere alone is what makes this place so great. The steak was melt in your mouth and the service was beyond expectations! Cannot wait to return to Carne!

We went to Carne tonight to celebrate my birthday and it was the best meal I've had in a long time! We started with the arancini on HH and the bread service- all of the spreads were delicious! Then I got the 6oz filet with smoky rub and my husband got the picanha. We did a blind taste test and we both chose my filet as the winner, but both were perfectly cooked. We also got the green chile cheese potatoes on the side and they were so warm and creamy. For dessert we decided to try the baked Alaska as neither of us had heard of it and it was a delicious way to end our evening!

Awesome new spot! Everything that comes out of this kitchen is great! Everything is put together to be shared. Makes it fun with a decent sized group. Very well decorated and vibey. The staff was very attentative to our large group and did a great job making sure that we were cared for. The food was really great! So much flavor and detail put into everything! Check the photos with descriptions for ideas!

Carne, the New RiNo Steakhouse From Chef Dana Rodriguez, opened July 3, 2024 in the RiNo neighborhood of the Denver, Colorado at 26th St and Larimer St.  It was a delightful dining experience.  The hearty heaping portion of the Ceasar Salad was fresh, crisp, flavorful and had great capers. Those capers! Bread service was warm, buttery with green chimmichurry good.  The sirloin wagyu cooked to medium rare was the highlight. Melt-in-your-mouth delicious.  Spiced to perfection. I praise it highly.  The staff were helpful with answering questions and passed our compliments to the chefs.  The decor and atmosphere was hip and inviting.  Give Carne a try. You'll be glad you did.

Awesome new restaurant alert! My roommate & I were walking Larimer 2 weeks ago and they were handing out fire samples promoting their grand opening so we had to come back - it did not disappoint! We tried the Caesar salad, burrata with tomatoes, French fries, and Peruvian pollo asado. Everything we got was great and came out quickly. Additionally, this place has awesome cocktails garnished to perfection. Our waiter was very tentative, and we even had a manager come out and check on us. We sat outside and they had a nice patio. Inside was 40 minute wait, so ensure you have a reservation if it's a weekend!

Maddie had been killing it the entire night, one of top 5 care takers I've encountered, venturing upstairs to get the mezcal cocktail there the staff is not permitted to get. She designed the best menu for me too. What can I say, I'm charming when I desire to be. I told her thank you, but I swipe left on ladies not on my team. She quickly retorted, figures. I heard you talking to the lady boss in hedge funds next you. Oh her fine ass with houses all over the country, yeah we agree economically. I love how the new cowboys are covered in tattoos, piercings, and trending Tesla owners from the legend Elon. I said we can still be friends, I mean you're cute. Do you want to try a bite of this certified Japanese A5? Yes please     I had read about how @carne_rino won the James Beard award and the press was raving about it. I had to know. I started with the OYSTERS, then PORK BELLY COCHINITA TACO [ Spicy-citrus salad, homemade tortilla ], CAESAR SALAD [ Chipotle-anchovy vinaigrette, parmesan, fried capers, croutons ], "OCTOPUSSY" [ Grilled achiote octopus, cannellini bean puree and salad, olive tapenade ], BEEF TIRADITO [ Beef tartare, jalapeño aioli, avocado sauce, tostada ], 3oz of certified A5 [ I always ask for the proof! If they don't have it, I'm not buying ], and finally the CHOCOLATE BROWNIE [ Salted dog chocolate ice cream, chocolate sauce ].     Everything was crazy good, including each of the drinks, and the service top notch. Their take on steak tartare was easily in the top 5 I've ever had, even across Vegas. The meats, to die for too. The death row item from that night was the nitro brewed espresso martini. I always get this as a dessert if offered, and I've never had it on nitro. I rarely give out this ranking and this was the best one I've ever had.     Still traveling. Still missing home. Being an explorer gets old at times, especially when you always battle your heart. Love you my friends.     P.S. to my new friends from Chicago I pray we cross paths again in Vegas.

Wonderful experience at Carne! The steak was delicious and one of the best we've had in Denver. All of the sides were delicious, especially the Caesar salad! We will be back for a special occasion again soon!

Upon entering, it leans toward a vibey 70s living room, which I loved. I kept seeing amazing posts about their food and Happy Hour, so I knew I had to check them out. what I ordered: Burrata with Baby Tomatoes, bread service, octopussy (), beef tiradito, provoleta (grilled Argentinian provolone cheese), roasted cauliflower (because we were trying to have a light dinner), roasted seasonal veggies, seasonal creamy risotto, Mexican Shrimp Cocktail, Baked Alaska, Key Lime Pie, Espresso Martini, Carne Old Fashioned, Tableside Gin Martinis best bites: We tried a lot of food and went in with very high expectations. The octopussy () was like butter, perfectly cooked. The provoleta was melty and seasoned so well. My absolute favorite bites were the Baked Alaska and the Key Lime Pie, wow! They were both absolutely fantastic. The tableside martinis were a blast too! could be better: Nothing was bad by any means, but I did not love the risotto, ceviche, and cauliflower. I would definitely pass on those next time.

This was one of the worst experiences in both food and service. We were seated nearly 40 minutes late, no really apology from the staff or taking care of anything on our bill by acknowledging the bad experience. The food was equally terrible. The caesar salad had no flavor, no anchovies and came out of a pre-made batch. I expect it to be made to order. The side of veggies was all root veggies, and undercooked. The cauliflower looked like bar junk food and was also undercooked. The fries were too salty. The steak, which is supposed to be their main attraction, was so salty it literally made me nauseous after. I don't know how this place has a high rating, it's clear they don't care about service or food.

Came for my bday dinner for first time. Love the location it's the old Il posto in rino and they moved bar to center which I like. The espresso martinis are DANGEROUSLY good they go down far to nice. Really liked the charcuterie to start. The entree was teeny I got the lamb chops for $40 I basically got 1 double cut lamb chop served split. It had a nice sauce though I wish I had 2 more though. The whole fish was also nice and the spinach had some heat. For dessert we got the creme brulee which was good. Nicole our server was attentive. May try again and get the Carne

Food (4/5): The food was pretty solid overall: great steak and polenta. The brown butter noodles had too much black pepper but were still pretty good. The Caesar salad was just okay--not great quality lettuce. Service (3/5): The service was friendly but SO slow. It took 15 mins to get our drinks and I ordered the table side martinis and not once did our server come back to ask if I wanted a second one--even though you need to get 2 to get the deal. They also never checked on how our meal was and we had to get someone else to get us our check, even though only maybe 2/3 of the tables were filled. Ambiance (4/5): Super cute decor but the music was just a little too loud to hold a proper conversation. Overall, would give it another shot but not dying to come back.

YES YES YES. Excellent service, vibe, and most importantly food! We were lucky enough to get to meet the head chef (she also owns super mega bien and work and class)! Very humble woman who was hustlin and so was the entire staff! We were seated by the windows but we caught a peek at the upstairs which has a great loungey vibe! My husband got the pisco sour which he loved and I stuck to the house red - they rotate through and have wine they acquired from the previous Italian spot that was in this location so it always changes! We got the octopus to start which was delicious - perfectly cooked, slightly charred, great flavor. We went with the servers recommendation for entrees which was the bife de chorizo and picanha - both perfectly cooked to med rare and seasoned and the red and green chimichurri that's served with it absolutely completes the dish! We got fries to share and it was a massive portion! They whipped up an aioli for us to dip the fries in which was delicious as well! We were celebrating my birthday so they gave us a crème brûlée on the house and made it special! For the quality of food and service - I was pleasantly surprised with the prices! We can't wait to come back!!

We knew the evening would be a winner when we scored a parking spot less than two blocks from the front door. This area gets busy fast! We had a reservation, which was good, because even mid-week it was popular. There were so many interesting things on the menu, we went a little crazy in ordering. First up -- a charcuterie plate AND a bread plate. Cheese was yummy, olives were salty, and the three of us happily shared. The South American Roasted Fish is whole and wholly impressive! It's served with a horseradish sauce that didn't seem to work with the delicate fish, but we sure enjoyed it with ... The steak entree we had. I apologize, I think it was the tri-tip, but I didn't write it down, I was too busy chowing down. Somewhere in this evening, either with the appetizers or the steak, we had a chorizo pate that was TO DIE FOR! And I don't like chorizo! It looked a little like a smooth tomato paste, and the flavor was hard to describe and hard to stop eating. I could have eaten just that all evening. Dessert was baked alaska -- more than enough to share -- it was good, but not stellar, but it was fun.

Visited Carne RiNo while on a golf trip with some friends in Denver, and luckily it was going to be a free dinner. After a short wait, we were seated at a nice booth in the corner of the restaurant. The restaurant has a nice retro vibe, which is a nice change of pace for a steak place, which normally gives old stuffy vibes. We started off with cocktails, which hit the spot after a long day of golf. Each one was well crafted and balanced. We each ordered a steak, which were all cooked to perfection. They were well seasoned, and the sides were solid as well. I had the brown butter pasta which was tasty. For dessert we had the key lime pie, which might have been one of the better one's I've ever had, and I've been to key west. Certainly a place to check out if looking for a night of solid cocktails and tasty steaks.

WOW I feel like Chef Dana has really knocked this one out of the park. First off, you walk in and the space has a retro and inviting feel to it. Great for families, business dinners, dates, whatever. The menu is approachable with fun intentional spins on a lot of "traditional" steak house style meals. My table all enjoyed our rounds of drinks consisting of both wine and cocktails. Personal favorites of mine were the bread service (the herby garlic butter and chimichurri are delicious, the chorizo Pâté (try some of the Pâté on the rolls with the chimichurri, thank me later), the Argentinian steak and chorizo, and the baked alaska. I'm already counting down the days til my next visit! Check out this new gem in rino ASAP.

Summary: good food overshadowed by terrible service. We heard this restaurant is up and coming on the scene and my husband loves steak so we thought we'd give it a try. When we arrived, there were a lot of people waiting up front and the host was clearly stressed from being behind. We were able to sit almost immediately, though it was upstairs where we couldn't take advantage of the Martini Cart - this was totally fine by us. Once we were sat, we waited over 10 minutes to be greeted and receive waters. This is the simplest way to let guests know you've acknowledged their arrival and will be with them soon. In my view it's one of the basic fundamentals of dining service. Finally our server arrived and got our drink order. She didn't really provide much introduction to the menu. We ordered drinks - a spritz and a martini which eventually arrived. For dinner, we ordered the palmito salad, the NY strip and the Striped Bass. Our salad was forgotten, so we sat with no appetizers until our mains arrived. After a reminder a salad did come (and was ultimately comped which we appreciated). The food was delicious and paired with great sauces. Both plates were well seasoned and cooked - although we ate dinner with butter knives. Very strange to me that a steakhouse, named Carne, doesn't present its meats with steak knives... I would have asked for another drink, or proper cutlery but we didn't get many check ins until we were done with our food. At that point the server asked if we wanted any more drinks to which we responded that we were set and would likely grab a drink elsewhere. Then, we sat for another 10-15 minutes trying to get her attention to receive our check. I eventually had to rudely ask for the bill so we could get out of there. This restaurant has potential to be really good - the food is amazing - but it really needs to work on the basics. Service matters!

My sister hit me up and wanted to try something new! She found the restaurant Carne and decided to give it a try. Upon entering the host told me that if I didn't have a reservation the only seats available were the bar. Little bit of a bummer as there were so many tables open and still the same tables open when we left. Thankfully they had three chairs open at the bar. Bartender was great and friendly. Got us some drinks and was patient and not pushy. However one guest at the bar made my entire party of three uncomfortable. This guest only ordered drinks and had probably 6 in the time we were enjoying each other's company at the bar. As we got our main entree my husband sitting next to this guest ordered the pork ribs and as he got some ribs on his fork the guest took the rib meat off his fork as he said "Let me try some of that." Unacceptable. The said guest was just staring at us the whole time making us all uncomfortable and was noticed by the staff too. Said guest also reached for our French fry plate several times and also said "I'm gonna try some of these too." The next time we had someone check in on us it was to offer the check and we wanted out. I spoke with the manager on duty after and I received an apology and confirmation that the guest was not a regular. Here nor there if a guest is observed eating off of your other patrons plates that is a cue that someone needs to go. For a $200+ meal I would expect to be eating in an environment where my husband, sister and myself are not being made uncomfortable. Thanks for the apology Carne but most likely won't be returning. As for the food: Meat was good, some pieces overly salty, cauliflower needed more flavor, cream spinach was great and fries......well so good anybody will reach onto your plate and eat them.

Excellent service and atmosphere. Our steaks (picanha and filet) were perfect. The 70's theme was interesting without being over-the-top. Prices were very reasonable.

Carne is a new restaurant in RiNo, super cute vibe. Very 70s feel, food was great and it was just an overall great time. Tomahawk was prepared to perfection, the potatoes were delicious & get yourself bread service bc nothing beats warm bread with butter. We sat upstairs in the lounge area. One thing to note- no martini table side up there since there's no room ( totally understandable). Can't wait to come back with the hubby

This new venture by Dana Rodriguez of Casa Bonita fame opened to the public Wednesday, 7/3. I was invited to a pre-opening party last Saturday and was impressed by the range of food items and cocktails. So I made a reservation thru Tock for 8pm. They are a global steakhouse with meat dishes ranging from classic steaks (6, 8 & 10 oz) + high-end cuts like Waygu and a Tomahawk for $175 to Argentinian, Brazilian, Mexican pork ribs, French duck confit, Peruvian Pollo Asado, Colorado Lamb, Italian Veal Osso Bucco, and Colorado striped bass with a choice of 7 different sauces. They have 10 sides all for $11. Several white/rose and red wines by the glass. They kept the Italian wines from Il Posto that was formely in this location and they are presented on a wine wall with lowered prices. I started with the Palmito salad and a glass of Spanish Albarino white wine. Very nice salad and crisp wine. For my entree, I had the Mexican Recado Negra Costillas, a half slab of slow cooked pork ribs with a hearty Achiote rub and sauce for only $23. I paired it with creamed spinach & parmesan cheese and Caliente French fries with a fiery seasoning. I added a glass of Italian primitivo organic Salento wine. A nice robust wine for the pork. I finished off dinner with a very 1970's dessert, Baked Alaska. Lots of meringue topping ice cream and cake with a berry sauce. Dinner for only $100 + tax & tip! I was served by Jesica R. She was very attentive and friendly. Despite being in a high space, noise level was low. Plenty of wood accents soaked up sound. They have a wraparound patio both covered and uncovered on the south & west sides. On the 2nd floor (steps only), is a separate cocktail bar called Club 74 with bar seating and low tables including a funky space separated by 1960's love beads. They have a limited food menu and different cocktails than the main bar downstairs. Restrooms are down a short hall in this shared building with an access code posted when you leave Carne.

Atmosphere, food, and service was all 10/10. Upstairs views are nice and the decorations were on par with the theme!

Jesica and the team at Carne was phenomenal. The beef tiradito and Brazilian picanha were out of bounds. Would highly recommend if you're in RiNo!

Absolutely amazing experience. Olivia was very hospitable and knowledgeable! The taste like Sumer happy hour drink was great as was amazing. The beef tartare and happy hour fondue were also stand outs. Beautiful atmosphere as well. We will definitely be back!

Cool vibe! Everything was fantastic. Food drink and service were spot on. Not much else to add. It's what you expect from Dana. Excellent!

Bar seating, good cocktails. Vibe was fun like a "vintage Palm Springs steakhouse". Octopus was well done, buttered noodles is a perfect complement to any of the steaks. We ordered the recommended Bavette steak. It was good but would probably try a different preparation next time. Go, it's fun and a better value than traditional steakhouses.

Wow wow wow! I wish I would have taken pictures! My friends brought me here for my birthday dinner and it was such an amazing experience. First the service was immaculate. Second, we ordered bread service and oysters, many cocktails, the waygu beef, fish, and multiple desserts. The restaurant itself is beautiful and trendy. I will be bringing others here in the future!

Third time there, staff steaks and drinks are excellent! Probably the best NY strip I've ever had. Will definitely be back, considering I work next door

One of THE BEST dining experiences in my life. If you're here for American oversized portions, pass. Items are very much European style servings. But LISTEN, the quality is top notch. We had the Brazilian Picanha, octopus appetizer and Caesar salad. Also, request Nico - he's wonderful...très bon, if you will ;) I've experience a small bit of dining worldwide and this hit several of my top restaurants in one - you're going to savor Every. Single. Bite. Second is the service, aside from my aforementioned Nico, all of the staff is inviting, accommodating and helps one another - something I notice having worked in the service industry in my early years. A MUST visit.

First time visiting Carne RiNo. Food was excellent, bartenders are very friendly and the cocktail menu is well done. Great vibe. Check out the upstairs bar!

Came here for my birthday and it was amazing! Happy hour was great, sat outside and enjoyed the fondue and smash burger. The cocktails were great, as well as the Brazilian Picanha! The General Manager came and asked how our dinner was on the way out, our service was great. Definitely coming back!

I will start with the highlights: French fries, octopus, lamb lollipops and salad. Cocktail was served in an 8 ounce glass with a 6 ounce ice cube, it was tasty but gone in a couple sips. Meats were over salted. Duck had little flavor, moist and tender but again just salty. Cauliflower was tasteless. Bottle Wine was good but a tad on the warm side as it just sits on a shelf in the restaurant. There remain a few misses and they really are not 4 star. Average at best right now. We had a nice time, server was friendly but not super attentive- probably too many tables to serve. Food came out promptly.

We have been SO EXCITED to try this place but unfortunately, the experience fell very short. I booked a reservation for my fiance's birthday and had to confirm multiple times that we would be at the reservation and confirmed multiple times it was for a special occasion. The waiter never mentioned anything or even asked if we were celebrating anything special- not a big deal but when the ambiance and setting is so hyped up, it's a nice touch. He also was working a section that had multiple 4-6 tops and he could not keep everything straight. We heard him apologizing to every table around us about the wait times, incorrect orders, etc. In no way was the service his fault, but the structure of service and staff was a lose lose situation for everyone involved. The tableside martinis were extremely disappointing. You will be better off ordering a shaken one from the bar. It is a premade mix with far too much vermouth for my liking and the add ons come in droppers to DIY your martini. It wasn't worth the money and took up a ton of room on our table. We also attempted to flag down the staff multiple times for a refill and never got one. Lastly, our food was okay. The sides were amazing, but the meat we ordered was overcooked and not very flavorful. For the prices, it was a let down. Overall, the food was overpriced and the service was under delivered. Newer restaurants have their growing pains, but seeing multiple reviews similar to this with no response from Carne is disappointing and makes me wonder how long they will last. I hope they take a nod from a few of their neighboring restaurants in how to course correct.

Pretty good but service was a bit slow and the biggest issue was the picanha. Taste was good but it wasn't picanha. No fat cap or fat at all.

Service, food, all great. Got the Wagyu Filet. A little overpriced at $60. Sauces were great. The green chile potatoes were solid. Bread was great. Key lime pie was fantastic.

This is the best restaurant for food and service I have experienced since moving to Colorado 11 years ago. The steak was perfectly cooked, the salad was fantastic, and the mushroom risotto was the best. The service was excellent. At the end of dinner, the chef stopped by the table to ask how our dinner was. We loved everything. Can't wait to return.

This place is a treat! Loved the vibe, incredible service, Yummy cocktails and the best meal I've had in a while! We will be back!

I wanted to like this place. The atmosphere from the pictures and when walking in seem fun. It wasn't. The host was almost rude when telling us we'd need to wait 20 mins beyond our reservation time to get a table. The stake was over salted and overcooked. There was really nothing redeeming about the experience except for the drinks.

Food was excellent. South American accented steakhouse. Everything was great tasting. Our server Jessica was patient and kind and very helpful. Restaurant had a Very energetic vibe. Only one fish item as a main-- but it was good. The wagu sirloin was delicious
