If you think the Table 6 restaurant at the corner of Corona and 6th Ave in Denver a small, cozy, local/family place, think again. This is what I thought when I first went to this place. It was indeed very small, a little crowded even when not many customers were dining inside. Forks and knives were laid on the bare tables – not on a table sheet or napkin (I cleaned my forks with a napkin before using). So far I still thought this was just one of the other many local restaurants until I saw the menu. The menu was a piece of printed green paper. The appetizers were around $8-$10, and the entrees were mostly over $20. I didn't start with an appetizer since the waiter told me they were very “tiny” portion. I didn't quite understand what his “tiny” mean until I saw my $23 entree. When I looked at the little food, sitting lonely in the middle of the plate, my first thought was – this is an entree dish or a food sampler? The taste was ok, especially when it cost two dollars per bite. But I was still hungry after finishing my little food in 5 minutes. The guy sitting in the next table finished his little food in about the same amount of time, and also looked hungry – how could he not be, I am a small-sized person with normal appetite, and I still had to have another meal back home after this costly dinner.
So if you are like me who doesn't get used to spend $50 on a single meal, doesn't want to feel humiliated and get the “cheap” look from your waiter for not ordering from the wine menu, and simply needs a normal portion of food to feed your stomach, then avoid this place. But if you have so much money and don't know how to waste it, and are willing to spend on very irrationally over-priced ordinary food, you may give a try. But here is another thought, why not donate the $ to local schools?
