The Perfect Landing

Waited 45 Mins after out reservation to finally be seated. During those 45 mins had the privileged of dealing with the rude front desk girl. Food was OK, prime rib was dry. Last time we went it was 4 stars so averaged my experiences to a 2.5.

WOW! Took my sweetie for an anniversary dinner. Great food, attentive service, fabulous view of the planes and the manager was not only visiting with the diners but he was also bussing tables and bringing out plates to keep things flowing smoothly.
That’s a combination of quality and great management that can’t be beat. we’ll be back!

I really hate giving these guys a 1 star review but the overall experience was 1 star.
The atmostphere was 5 stars, great FBO, nice view of the runway etc.
However the food was terrible and the service was even worse. The price was way out of line since the food and service would have been better at your local Chilis.

Yes the seating is very nice and all but the food is to big and kinda weird. I had the fish tacos for lunch and there was to much stuff on the food guacamole and other sauces it was really gross. I mean I like the theme of the restaurant just not the food. I rated this a 3 star because the view is incredible and the people are so nice just not the execution of the food.

Food is decent, service leaves something to be desired. Prices are too high! $ 3 for a cup of Coffee that tastes like this? COME-​ON-​MAN!

Eh. The atmosphere is awesome. Service is great. Food is just eh. Over-​priced for the taste of the food.
We really hoped this had been better. We’ve tried it twice now & both times were disappointed.

Wow! This is not your standard airport food. Very tender steak. Live piano music that was not too loud. Great drinks on tap, amazing appetizers.
Oh and the best part? The amazing view. You have a front row seat of the runway as well as the Rocky Mountains.
I’m a military pilot and the owner insisted on paying for our meal. It was completely unnecessary but still very appreciated!
I will absolutely go back.

How have I not reviewed this place, yet?! Perfect landing has to get a perfect rating… I mean they have perfect in the name!!! Just kidding, kinda! They get 5 stars for way more than the name so in unconventional fashion I’m going to bullet point all the positives because there are almost too many to list.
*location-​nestled into the heart of the centennial airport you will enjoy your dinner, lunch, or drinks while watching all the different private planes take off and taxi right up to the window, with the beautiful Rockies in the background!
*ambiance– dim lighting makes for a more upscale feel and you will be blown away by the richness of the bar right when you walk in! People are smiling, laughing and even singing…
*BOOGIE BOB!- I can’t tell you how much I love listening to live music while enjoying great company, but I’ll try! Boogie Bob plays very often (not sure of his schedule, that’d be creepy) and he can play it all! My favorite is when someone asks him to play a certain song and he goes into playing it immediately! I’ve never heard «oh I don’t know that one»!
*Food/​wine– the food is very reasonably priced based on quality, even though we have watched the prices go up over the years! The seafood is top notch, the steaks are perfect and the apps are killer! My favs are Crab cakes (best I’ve had in Denver!), Jim’s steak and shrimp, where else can you get fine dining sirloin, shrimp and two sides for $ 15?! And the wine, how does $ 25 for your first bottle sound then $ .52 for your second? You are reading that right! 52 CENTS people! And it’s good wine!!!
*loyalty program– get the loyalty card and after 10 visits you get a free lunch entrée here. After 15 it’s a free DINNER entrée! No restrictions! I just enjoyed a $ 34 prime ribeye on the bone with my last loyalty reward!
I love this place as you can tell! You will too! You’re welcome, for sharing the best kept secret in Centennial!

I am part of a breakfast club and let me tell you I have been to the Village Inn type places too many times and this place was a fabulous difference. It was top notch, and the breakfast menu was huge. Food was served hot, things that my local Village Inn type place could not compete with.
I did have to return my drink, because it wasn’t hot enough and then I didn’t get refills, but we had a huge group, I mean huge. 50+ people. The staff did well and I will be back again. I would check this place out for other meals as well, plus watching the airplanes come and go is fun too.

Just walked in to try it out because I heard Great things but as we approach the front desk for the host two of the host completely ignored us and the first one that approach us had the nerve to ask how can she help us I said well we would like to eat and she said OK looked down with an attitude and said what’s your name so I immediately turned around and walked out due to the fact that the customer service was extremely poor and I will never come back nor will I recommend this to anybody!!! I wish I can give it zero stars!!! I felt as though we were being profiled due to our Hispanic decent. Makes me sick!!!

When I visit The Perfect Landing it’s because I need a time out from the regular restaurant landscape. Fusing a memorable view of the airstrip with live music and classic dishes done well has made me very fond of dining here. From breakfast to dinner there are great treats to be had for reasonable prices.
You may walk in to find a view of military aircraft sitting just outside and the pilots having a meal. You might witness someone with a small prop plane helping his dog into the passenger seat as the super sleek jet next to him fires up the engines. Sometimes it’s 20 people around the piano cheerfully singing standards. You never really know and that’s the fun of it.
I can vouch for several things on the menu but there are plenty of choices.
Chicken Fried Steak-​One of the best I’ve had.
Scallop Risotto– also has Crab mixed in and very satisfying.
Lobster Roll– What a deal for $ 16 and with the Steak Fries It’s my favorite thing to get.
Folks are excited to be here and you can feel that. My experience with the service has been very good. Try something a little different and drive or fly over to The Perfect Landing!

This place has a great ambience. You get to watch the planes land in and out of Centennial Airport. Their crab stuffed salmon was delicious and you get an endless supply of blueberry muffins. That would be my only complaint were those muffins because they were somewhat dry. But they also have a wonderful piano player named Ron Kientz who is fantastic. A seranated breakfast :)

This restaurant is great for aviation nerds! You get a great view of the runways at centennial airport, no matter what table you are at. The wait staff is fantastic. They are a friendly and funny bunch who provides great service.
The food is quite good, I had the prime rib au jus and my boyfriend had the cheeseburger. I enjoyed my sandwich, the meat was flavorful and tender, and they give you large portions. The only downfall is that the food is quite pricey, but what can you expect from an airport restaurant that caters to people who fly on private planes?
Overall a very pleasant experience and I would come back again.

Edit: Owner quickly contacted us offering another meal. I appreciated the customer service and will swing by to give them another chance. Always enjoy seeing when those running a restaurant really care how your experience was. Plus one star for customer service.
Earlier review:
We went here for a Saturday brunch around 11:30am and ordered chicken fried steak and Cali eggs bene. Service was effective but not friendly. Very unsmiling and unresponsive to my friendly and happy disposition.
Aside from that the food was so so. My steak was really well cooked but the meat inside the breading was not seasoned at all. I salted the crunchy coating but it didn’t really help. Better bites occurred when I rubbed the meat into a little salt and pepper on my plate. I was sad about that because the cooking of the CFstreak was so great it would have been delicious. My potatoes were a solid mass of potato. Not «skillet style» potatoes as is seen in the older pics on Unilocal.I asked the server who brought the food, thinking I ordered the wrong kind, and they asked the chef– who said no, this is the only kind of potatoes they have. Sucks because it was a significant reason I picked this place.
My eggs were flavorless and mostly inedible even after I added salt and pepper.
I ordered a biscuit on the side and it was rather dense and also pretty flavorless. It was so dense and flavorless I couldn’t eat it and it was removed from the bill. Gravy was ordered on the side and just bland. Harmless and not good or bad.
My bf ordered eggs bene and liked it. He also said it lacked salt and seasoning though. Mind you we do not normally add salt to our food when we done out. He said his potatoes needed salt and were bland too. He chose the fruit cup and it was the nicest one he’s received he said. Had berries and melon and did look nice.
Lastly the coffee was weak and watery. Big no no for breakfast. The server said they had latte but no espresso machine. Not sure what sort of latte is made without espresso?
Overall, I was disappointed and I would not go back here again. The main reason is that even though the food was assembled nicely and cooked fairly well – the seasoning was totally missing from everything and simply adding salt and pepper wasn’t adequate when deeper layers of the food were so lackluster. It’s sad, because I was hoping to find an alternative to the hour-​long waits at Snooze.

Chose a late Saturday night for dinner at The Perfect Landing. Great ambiance. add a star if you are an aviator or just enjoy a view of aircraft coming and going, as this restaurant is situated alongside of busy Centennial airport.
Ordered Chateaubriand and was not disappointed. Excellent with flavorful house salad. Great selection of seafood dishes, including fresh Lobster and mussel fare. Wine selection is ample, with some excellent choices. We had cocktails. martinis were great.
Piano player was entertaining. will return another night for cocktails to enjoy his music around his piano bar.

I can’t speak for lunch or dinner service but Perfect Landing is our new spot for breakfast and brunch. We visited the first time for Father’s Day and the second time a few weeks later. Both times the restaurant was packed (reservations required) and both times the food was extraordinary.
Perfect Landing is a bit of a contradiction. It is located inside a private charter terminal on the top floor, has little to no exterior charm, but inside boasts a large sitting bar, panoramic views of the mountains and of the Centennial Airport landing strip, and white table linens.
Perfect Landing was recommended to us by friends who said that everything on the breakfast menu was excellent. Our expectations were high. And, they were met both times. A couple of nods go to the biscuits and gravy, the scrambled eggs (finally, a place that appreciates the art of cooking an egg) the banana foster’s pancakes and the poppy seed and carrot cake muffins. The bacon is thick cut and apple smoked but we have had issues with the consistency — one time it was soggy and the other time it was black. The service has always been excellent and they were kind enough to put up with 3 children the last go-​around.

They don’t have high chairs! We went here to eat on Father’s Day and our one-​year-​old daughter had to sit on our laps the whole time, making it very difficult to eat as you can imagine. The server told us the owner had made the decision not to have them anymore. I believe he said they had them at one time. Clearly they don’t want young children here! Poor choice of restaurant for Father’s Day, that’s for sure.
Service was fine, Bloody Marys were good, food was extremely average (if not below) and very overpriced. I ordered the king crab legs which were $ 35 and came with 4 small crab legs.
In all, could be a cool place but needs a total revamp. I don’t think I’ll be going back.

The Perfect Landing is the first restaurant I ever ate at in Denver. Back at that time (2009), it was more of a dive bar/​restaurant with those round wooden chairs, which is quite different from its current state. It’s still our favorite place for breakfast, and a wonderful spot to bring visitors.
I can only comment on breakfast items, but meals are always delicious and prices are fair. Their biscuits are a must-​try, as they’re the butteriest treats I’ve ever had. I usually have the greek omelet and am always pleased. I would love to see an offering of non-​pork side items, though appreciate seafood being available.
The view here is beautiful and can easily keep all members of your party entertained. It’s not a 5 star review as we usually have some sort of encounter, be it a snappy hostess about not having a reservation (ALWAYS make one no matter your party size/​date/​time), a slow or absent server, or the decision to put a family with small, screaming children beside us. Regardless, we will be back.

The best thing the Perfect Landing has going for them is the amazing view of the front range.
I’ve been a couple of times with my in-​laws. Both visits it looked like this was a favorite spot among those in the AARP. Nothing wrong with that I just noticed that I was probably the youngest female dining and I’m no spring chicken.
If you like beer you will be seriously let down. There were four on tap, so I went with a Fat Tire. Thankfully I could at least get that, though that’s about as common as Bud around here.
On my latest visit our group of eight had a table in the space away from the bar. We had the room to ourselves for a bit. Being in the back area we were unable to hear Boogie Bob on the piano and had to settle with elevator music instead.
My first visit was a few years ago. I got a Surf & Turf or something similar. I remember being satisfied with my dinner. This go around I started out with the Perfect Salad. I always enjoy a salad with blue cheese and candied pecans. For dinner I went with the Crab Cakes with the mustard aioli. This is an appetizer, but seeing that the dish was full of crab I ordered it for my main.
I sampled a bite of my husband’s Maine Lobster Roll and it was delicious. My mother-in-law’s Filet Mignon was very good too.
The view is awesome and the food was good it’s just not my type of restaurant. Our server started out friendly, but I felt like he got annoyed with us after a candle at our table burned a hole through a napkin. Once he had more tables to look after it took a long time for us to get our second round of drinks.
I enjoy coming with family but I probably wouldn’t go out of my way for a visit

Well I must say I used to come here on a weekly basis I loved it the prices were amazing from Sunday to Thursday they have deals from $ 10 and up. But I did notice some changes on the menu
