Don't bother

by denver native at Citysearch

There are too many resturants in Denver to eat at this place. Our waitress was rude and had no knowledge of the food on the menue. The food order was wrong and she had to be reminded t fix it. I had to ask for sharp knives to cut the meat. She didn't ask if we wanted desert,or coffee. When I complained to the hostess she said if the manager wasn't too busy she maybe would be able to talk to me. I have had better service at Taco Bell.

• Pros: food is ok
• Cons: worst service

Great Date Spot

by mbomb at Citysearch

This is a great date spot because it has a small atmosphere and there are quiet places to sit and stare into your lover's eyes. Great food, drinks and staff. Ther service is great and the cooks are awesome! Your food gets out fast and is always done right!

I just can't enough of this place!

It looks small from the outside but the place is actually huge! I didn't realize until someone pointed out that there is another bar upstairs along with pool tables and jukebox. I had no idea. Hanson's offers the usual burgers, sandwiches and the like. They also have some tasty dinner specials. I had a seafood stuffed trout served with an herb cream sauce. I was in heaven! My dining partner always squirms and cries that she "hates fish". I begged her to try some and she could not believe how great it was. One of pros of Hanson's is that they do have a parking lot. It is small but lots of times you can get lucky. Also, being a little north and out of the congested Sushi Den part of South Pearl Street there is often street parking available. I love the place and can't get enough. Its also a great place to hang out and have some drinks with friends. They have happy hour that seems to go on forever so drinks are pretty cheap. Hanson's has a great feel to it, I am from Chicago and it reminds me a lot of neighborhood bars back home. See you there!

• Pros: exceptional food for neighborhood hangout, parking, cheap drinks, free pool
• Cons: can get busy on certain nights
