Indulge Bistro & Wine Bar

Sat at the bar solo, in town on business. Nice service from the bartenders. The Orin Swift flight is tasty and generous. For dinner, I had 1) the «signature» meatballs which lived up to their name, delicious, and I had all 3 sauces but recommend the marinara pesto & 2) the Italian salad which was great, though I didn’t love the pickled eggplant. Then I used a Unilocal coupon for a free dessert (thanks Unilocal!), and had the rice pudding which was different but very yummy! Left full and happy.

We came in pre-​Red Rocks concert for some small plates and drinks. We were pleasantly surprised with excellent prices on the happy hour menu!
I enjoyed house Sauvignon Blanc for $ 5 a glass; they also offered cocktails for $ 6.50 and beer for $ 3 – 5.
Small plates ranged from $ 7-​$ 11 so between 5 people we tried 7 things. Not a bad thing on the table all night! I must give the mussels & fries and the ahi tuna guacamole a special shout out!
Outdoor patio was a great touch as well!

Great food! A bit pricey but if you get there before 6pm it is half price appetizers. If you are a wine person, it seems to be a nice quite place to drink a glass.

Incredible! From the food to the happy hour, atmoshphere, bar service and personnel, an absolute cant miss! We were traveling across country and found this from being told Golden was «cute, heard good things». This is an absolute hidden gem! Happy hour deals were great and the recommendations were fantastic. We were the annoying patrons that needed to print tickets for a Red Rocks show that night (an hour from when we asked) and the bar Manager Daryl, couldnt have been nicer. He was incredibly helpful and our bar tender Sam was personable, attentive and authetic. The couple next to us wanted to take there last couple pieces of steak home in a napkin and Daryl without a moments hesitation grabbed them aluminum foil. For pets lovers, the consideration and attention to detail cant be missed! If we had more time wed be back tomorrow! 6 out 5!

Best gluten free flat bread I’ve ever had. I’ve tried a lot of different kinds over the last 7 years but hands down my favorite. Stumbled on this place by accident and I will be back. They have an impressive wine selection as well.

My wife and I have come here a few times for wine/​appetizers and dinner on one occasion. I have yet to have a dish I was unhappy with. I think the wine list is above par, which is a nice surprise.

Nice wine selection. I had a good Malbec. Had a cheese flatbread pizza, it was quite tasty. I normally don’t eat the whole thing but this was an exception. Far as I know, my friend enjoyed her burger and said she really liked the chocolate martini.
The crème brûlée is worth paying for ($ 8). (I didn’t order enough to get it free.)
The only reason that I give indulge 4 stars is for our service. The server was pleasant enough, but disappeared for long periods of time (like 20 minutes). Keep in mind this is like 11:30 on a weekday; they weren’t crowded, so I don’t know what happened there.
Seating on the patio is great if the weather is good. Will try again for the food.

Awesome wine menu! This is a great place for a date if you’re a wino. I’ll definitely be back for drinks! Wine aside the food was nothing spectacular, the Bruschetta was very bland felt like I was just eating a plain Crostini. However the Signature Chicken Gnocchi was straight delicious! I loved every bite only complaint is it taste exactly the same as any other restaurant that offers this dish, wish it was a little more unique. Finally the Crème Brulee Duo tasted spectacular! The Grand Marnier is a great twist from your typical vanilla flavor, downside to this dessert is the portion size. There were only like 4 bites total! I know I’m short but these servings were for babies.
Service was also nothing too special, waitress seemed to be tired and wanted nothing more but to go home. Rarely came by to check in or refill our waters, I will give her the fact she seemed to be the only waitress in the whole place. so we didn’t expect much.
Overall definitely recommend coming here!

We went here for Mothers Day, today. The food was great and the choice of wine was good. The bill for 4 of us was moderately priced.
I had the steak salad, which was great. The kids had burgers which looked great also.
I look forward to coming back sometime with Friends this summer.

Lunch with my girlfriends was amazing. Great cocktails and apps! Fantastic service and friendly staff. Loved it !!

Great environment with a hipster menu!
Watermelon, cucumber gazpacho with strawberry sorbet was yummy!

Our server Erica treated us like royalty! Our salads were fresh yummyness, the quac appetizer awesome, the wine recommendation spot on ant the crème brûlée to die for. If you feel like being pampered, this is the place!

Tried one of the daily specials, Chicken and Waffles. The quarter chicken was tender and juicy. Wish I had more. In addition 3 waffles with sausage gravy and an over easy egg. Definitely a touch of Tonya Gabbard South. Love the ambience of the restaurant and the wait staff are fantastic. I highly recommend.

While I am bummed that some of my favorites are no longer on the menu (Irish burger, greek shrimp), Indulge is still a great option in Golden. The guy and I stopped by for happy hour this past weekend and didn’t realize they had such great deals.
$ 5 select wines and awesome apps ranging from $ 7 — $ 12. Tony Soprano pizza was spot on and the honey-​chicken-​sriracha street tacos were bomb, but $ 8 for 2 of them was a bit pricey for what you got.
Bartender was super nice and very attentive. Would for sure be back for some happy hour goodness.

What a fun place to come and unwind! Came here with two friends for happy hour after work, and we had a great time. Good wine selection, and quite a few interesting selections on the menu!
Goat cheese peppadew — super flavorful, tangy, creamy, and with the thickest balsamic reduction.
Pulled to order mozzarella — so simple and so delicious. The «focaccia» was a little dense but who can dislike a pile of fresh mozz? Delicious.
Ahi tuna guacamole — wonderful flavors; the wonton chips were creative. The ahi tasted a little fishy but I suppose it’s hard to get fresh fish in CO.
All in all this is an awesome place to come hang out. A little pricey, but well worth it!

Decent place and worth a try. This place is best for adults and not super conducive for kids. It’s a higher end bistro-​wine bar which offers a great grown-​up scene. The menu is limited but tasty. The spirits and wines are top notch. I would have rated higher but my chicken special was under-​cooked and chose not to finish the dish.

Golden is cute. Indulge is right smack in that cuteness.
Request to sit in that small spot with the high chairs to your left as you walk in. By the window if possible. It’s cozy but you will look good here.
Warm décor. Trendy but comfortable. Outside sitting during warmer weather. Expect a festive vibe.
Walked in without a reservation on a weekday night. Looked busy but we scored «the spot» I was referring to above. Now the food. I know, I know. This is a wine bar. The food simply become foremost in mind when it is that good. I had the New York Strip with fries. $ 32. Don’t worry about the price. The portion is good. The taste makes it all worth the worries:) it is very good. Seasoned well and tender. All sliced for you. Indulge on this you will like it! Even the fries were good! Crunchy, salty and fresh!
The staff was a winner too. On point with their suggestions and very quick.
Not a pro tip: but a true Unilocaler tip. Check in and get their excellent crème brûlée free!

I’ve been to Indulge before, but for drinks only. This was my first time having dinner. It was so good!
We started with the calamari and meatball appitizers. I’m not a fan of calamari, so I didn’t try that, but the dish came with battered and fried chili peppers. They were pretty tasty… had just the right amount of kick. The meatballs came with three different types of sauces — pesto marinara, stroganoff, and cream mustard. They were all very good and the bread that came with it was pretty tasty too.
A couple of us went with the NY Strip special. We probably should’ve ordered one and split it cause the portion was huge. The steak was cooked perfectly and the blue cheese sauce was rich and creamy. The peppercorn crust was delicious and was great with the horseradish mashed potatoes. The dish also came with broccolini. I would definately order this meal again.
Hubby had the chicken gnocchi and it was ok. I did’t care for it, but he liked it.
We ended dinner with the free crème brûlée duo that comes free when you check in on Unilocal.They were so good.
The staff at Indulge were pretty awesome. Very friendly and attentive.
Overal we had a great time, eating great food, drinking great wine, with people we love!

Revisited at lunch and my experience was no where close to before. The service was very slow and awkward. We had the garlic shrimp appetizer which was good, but under seasoned. Followed with the pizza. It had about a half inch of cheese. Not good.
I had to get up and ask the bartender to send our server over because she was no where to be found. There is no excuse for such horrible service in an almost empty restaurant.

This is a modern restaurant with stellar food and wine selections! My friend was visiting from LA so we decided to meet up here for Happy Hour. We took full advantage of the nice weather and sat outside on the patio. The vibe is relaxed and casual. The restaurant is right on Washington Ave and is good for people watching. I also liked their wall-​to-​ceiling wine display!
Happy Hour: the menu definitely offers a good variety of dishes that has something for everyone including vegetarians like myself. We ordered the bruschetta, goat cheese papadew and margarita pizza. Loved the super fresh tomatoes and basil on the toasted bread with the balsamic vinegar — YUM! The goat cheese stuffed papadew has an interesting flavor combination that’s both tangy, savory and spicy. The simple margarita pizza was great too! The portions are really good for Happy Hour so are the prices!
My friend also ordered the charcuterie board with an assortment of cheeses, fruits, olives and nuts. You can create different combos for unique flavor pairings. There’s enough food for 3 – 4 people.
Overall, this is a nice restaurant with good food and wine at a decent price point right in downtown Golden. I will return for another Happy Hour or dinner next time I’m in the area!
