Guard and Grace is downtown Denver's premier steakhouse. USDA prime cuts with dry-aging deliver 45-55g protein. Named Best New Restaurant by Bon Appetit. The restaurant sits in Downtown Denver and is part of the broader Denver, Colorado dining scene.
Steakhouse menus are protein-heavy by definition but calorie-dense in the sides. A 6-8oz filet, NY strip, or sirloin clears 40-50g of protein cleanly for 300-400 calories of meat. The damage almost always comes from the table: the bread basket, the creamed spinach, the loaded mashed, the truffle fries. If you're tracking macros, pick one side, get the steak medium-rare to keep the natural fats intact, and replace bread with a side salad — that single swap saves 400-600 calories on a typical visit.
For an athlete-ready order at Guard and Grace, anchor on the protein and swap or skip the calorie-heavy sides. Best macro pick: A 6-8oz filet, NY strip, or sirloin (40-50g protein) with a side salad in place of bread service. Watch out for: The bread basket, creamed spinach, loaded mashed, and truffle fries — each adds 300-500 calories without protein.
This guide is built from Guard and Grace's published menu and standard industry macro references for the dishes named above.
