To any who are not familiar, John Elway is one of the most famous and best quarterbacks in NFL history. The name John Elway and the Denver Broncos pretty much go hand in hand, that is how iconic he has been for that franchise. However, the hall of fame quarterback did not just ride off into the sunset after retiring. He remained active in many business ventures, most notably opening a chain of Elway's steakhouses in Colorado.

Elway's steakhouses have rave reviews, with over a 4.3 average on Google and an average of 4 stars on Yelp. But are they truly great steakhouses? Or is Elway's steakhouse a tourist trap and just riding off people's rose colored glasses from his playing days? In this video we seek to leave an honest and unbiased review of what many claim is one of the best steakhouses in Denver, the John Elway steakhouse, and see if Elway's steakhouse is good or not.

Is Elway's a good steakhouse? Or is John Elway such a local hero that people can't help but praise his restaurant? We'll find out together!

That place was absolutely terrible. The service was awful and literally that meat seemed like a $9 cut you’d get at like Walmart. Place was an embarrassment.

People honestly pay $61 for a single steak? That’s insane

That server would be fired on the spot if he worked at most restaurants.

Yikes, whether I'm watching food videos or dinning out myself...I've never heard a server react that way when asked for their recommendation.

I have never had a decent meal at a fair price in an airport.

Why should that waiter get any tip? That was terrible service, waiter and probably the manager needs to get fired.

$61.00 for that steak🤣 I also saw on the menu $28.00 for 3 shrimp cocktail? Clueless and rude waiter. What a pathetic excuse for a steakhouse

Great video tells you all you need to know about this restaurant! The attitude of the server lost a ton of business for this restaurant. Anyone who watches this won’t step foot there. Thanks for the honest video.

A brutally honest, and refreshingly astute analysis. Food: 2/10; review: 10/10.

Thanks for this review. I will be sure to walk on by this place. No way I’m going to pay that much for that little.
