A few weeks ago, Forrest and I spotted the Black Tie Gourmet on our way back to work from Front Range BBQ, and made a mental note to check it out one day. Well, today was the day.

Its a tiny place, inside an old house. Its easy to miss, but they've put about a million signs up in the front yard to alleviate that problem. We decided to grab one of the very few tables inside the building, although they have more tables outside.

I don't normally swear on my write-ups, but I'll have to make an exception for this one.

One of the first things we noticed on the menu was the "Big Ass Meatball Sandwich". After a few chuckles, I decided that it did indeed sound good, so thats what I ordered. I told the waitress, "I already have a big ass, I just need a meatball sandwich to go with it."

WOW! Look at the size of those meatballs! They were huge - and delicious. Forrest had a French Dip, Sean had a Roast Beef sandwich, and Z went with the Pastrami. Everyone at the table agreed that their sandwiches were top notch except Z (He liked Broadway Deli's better).

My meatball sandwich tasted great, but was very messy. I ended up just eating it with a knife and fork. The meatballs were so huge they had to be eaten in multiple bites. They were also seasoned and spiced just right. Yum!

Black Tie Gourmet's website is pretty out of date. According to the online menu, my sandwich costs $7.95, but in reality, it was $9.25, which brings me to my biggest issue with Black Tie Gourmet. Its expensive! It cost nearly ten bucks for a meatball sandwich. After a drink and tip, its hard to get out of here for under fifteen bucks.
