In his review this week, Jason Sheehan lauds the food at Elway's Downtown -- but laments its lack of fun, such a critical component in the success of the original Elway's.

Still, the joint was jammed last night, with drinkers packing the lounge and diners digging into steaks. And they should be having some fun there Sunday evening, when Elway's Downtown will start the tenth anniversary celebration of John Elway winning the first of two consecutive Super Bowls.

From 5-9 p.m. Sundays, the "Surf and Turf" deal gets you a three-course meal featuring Maine lobster and prime New York strip, at just $98.99 for two. (And the valet parking is free!) To make a reservation, call 303-312-3107.
