I wanted to give a shout out to Smokin Fins who just opened their eighth store in Highlands Ranch, Colorado.
We first discovered Smokin Fins (also know as Lucky Fins in Idaho and Greeley, CO) last summer after our kitchen was taken out by a water leak. We had gone out of town for eleven days for work and came home to discover our refrigerator had sprung a leak. The remediation team came first thing the next morning and to make a long story short, they had to remove all our kitchen cabinets and flooring. We were left with about 25 percent of our great room tented off to contain the area so they could dry it out and stop any further damage caused by mold.
Anyway, we were left without a kitchen and no way to cook and prepare meals. The only solution was to go out to eat.
After a week or two of dining at our regular spots we discovered that a new restaurant had just opened right here in Old Town Arvada; it was Smokin Fins! We just happened to go within the first few days of their grand opening while the training team were still in town. Everyone was very friendly and we loved what we had for dinner that night. As a matter of fact we enjoyed it so much that we went back the next night, and the next. It pretty much became the only place we would go.
Smokin Fins Menu:
The menu has a something for everyone; Sushi, seafood dishes, smoked prime rib & pork, burgers, bowls, soups and salads. They also have gluten free options and a kids menu. I can’t really say what my favorite thing is because I love it all!
During the (approximately) six months we were without a kitchen we got to know a lot of the employees, including some of the training team that were here initially from Idaho. It was one of these friends, Robin, who called us when she came to town to open their Highlands Ranch location and invited us to the pre-grand opening friends and family event. Naturally, we were thrilled to be a part of their big day!
If you get a chance to eat at one of their restaurants, do it! We’ve tried pretty much everything on the menu and it’s all great!
