I'm Always Jonesin' for Jonesy's!




we've been hearing about jonesy's for quite a while- a friend of my mom's works there- and we kept seeing it while we were driving past to go to wahoo's fish tacos (because it's really hard to NOT go to wahoo's!).  well, we finally decided to make it a destination last monday, and we are SO glad we did!   

first of all, they have a really cute little patio where i can hang out.  it's on the logan side of the building, so it's good for people watching- and for me to sit and get attention from passersby! hellllllooooooo!  there's a community doggy water bowl- which i don't usually get to drink from because my mom thinks the water is always too dirty- but this one was filled with cold, fresh water. that was a good sign!  the waitress who came out to greet us was SO nice and verrrrrrry welcoming!  we were there with aunt tonja and clary, so she had a dog AND a kid to deal with, and she was just delightful!  she looked all of us directly in the eye when speaking to us (including me and clary) and always made sure that each of us had everything we needed.  tonja and mom were impressed with the compact wine list as well as the menu.  they ordered truffle fries right off the bat and... well... i don't think i've had (i.e. begged for) anything more delicious! my mom gave me one because i was so curious, but it was so good that i couldn't help myself from barking for more!  i got one or two more, but that was all i could scam.  so i just relaxed and hung out on the sidewalk while everyone ELSE ate truffle fries. and lamb sliders.  and thai beef salad. i didn't think that was so fair, but... what can i do?!   it's a dog's life!

welllllll, right after the food arrived, so did the rain! torrential, scary rain, complete with lightning and thunder!  we had to race inside for a little bit, because we weren't quite finished, and were able to walk right in. our wonderful waitress took care of moving everything and the manager made sure we could be accommodated in the booth right next to the door.  i was glad i didn't have to sit outside in the pouring rain while everyone else finished up, so i was careful to stay put.   i might have begged a little bit, but i'm not really admitting anything... !!

i give jonesy's two HUGE paws up!  my mom and i have never felt more welcomed anywhere in denver!  thanks to jonesy's and their amazing staff!  if they could make a doggy version of truffle fries... aaaaaaaaahhhhh!  that would be SO great!!!  i'll keep my paws crossed...!
