“The owner of the restaurant just called me a working class driver (in a tone that sounded like he was talking to his slave from a throne) for asking him about a wait time on a delivery order for uber. I don't think my son or I will be eating here for a 7th time, we will take our hard earned lower class money to Yak & Yetti for some better made food and company. People like him that are dismissive of another persons right to service based on financial class will come back as a snake...”
“OMG!!! I still have to try something that I don't like here, but y'all, the Carne Asada taco is the best on earth!!! Since my first time here this became my favorite spot for tacos! Hands down the best I've EVER had in my life and I'm not joking!! (same goes for the location in LaFayette). These guys know what they are doing! I HIGHLY RECOMMEND THEM!! You won't regret it! Cocktails (Mojito, Dama Maria and Margaritas) are amazing too, and also the appetizers (Guacamole and Queso Fondido) are to die for! And I heard amazing things about the Fingerling Potatoes which I'll try them tonight! We are here basically once a week! ABSOLUTELY LOVE IT!!!!!”

“Definitely a spot you must check out. The whiskeys are phenomenal and so are the cocktails. The staff is all super friendly. Very small spot so feels really cozy.”
“My go to favorite restaurant in the Denver Metro area. Exceptional service, lively fun atmosphere and the food is amazing. From their contemporary offerings to their high class cuisine to their in house bbq/smoked meats. This is a favorite for date nights, outings with friends, and a place to take the entire family.”

“This bakery is on a completely different level. Their pastries feel like elevated versions of childhood favorites, especially the Twix-inspired bars that somehow manage to be both nostalgic and insanely refined. The seven-layer maple buttercream cakes were rich without being overwhelming, dipped in chocolate with a perfect balance of sweetness and depth. And the streusel—easily some of the best I’ve ever had—was buttery, crisp, and packed with flavor, adding the perfect texture to every bite. Every item felt thoughtfully crafted, indulgent, and unapologetically decadent. This is the kind of place that ruins ordinary bakeries for you—in the best way.”

“A favorite for our whole family. We have used Breadwinners Catering for years and when cafe opened it became the perfect spot for business lunches, family brunch and now dinner. With CoVid, finding a restaurant with outdoor seating and spacious table separation is difficult. They have 2 outdoor patios and indoor seating is adjusted for our safety.”

“Excellent place! Great atmosphere! Great food and drink! Great service! I would highly recommend! My fiancé and I discovered The Arvada Tavern on an impromptu date night and really enjoyed ourselves there. Can’t wait to go back! Don’t take my word for it, go and check it out and see for yourself.”
“Awesome food, really nice staff, good happy hour deals! Go FINS!”
“A friend wanted to meet for dinner and mentioned tapas. Doing a quick search I came across Olde Town Social, and my friend agreed it looked like a solid option.
When I arrived, my friend was already there and had ordered an old fashion and he was quite happy with his selection and told me it was made with a smoke infusion in front of him.
When we sat down our server was prompt without hovering. He was quite engaging and we quickly established he was the owner (I am not always quick on the uptake). He answered our questions on the menu and we found out he has a history as a chef, and the menu showed it. We ordered the shishito peppers, the wedge salad and the ribs. I always love a good wedge salad, and this one didn't disappoint, in part because it was already prepared to be shared. The ribs were definitely a highlight and surprising - a unique dish that I will order again :) We finished up with some sliders.
I also appreciated that they have live music, movie nights, trivia nights and more. I will definitely be returning - solo, with friends and with out of towners.”

“I’ve been a long time customer here for their outstanding pho. Tonight I finally deviated to a different dish and boy have I been missing out. They absolutely knocked it out of the park with these drunken noodles and the picture says it all. I’m going to have to start eating here multiple times a week just to make sure I don’t miss out on any of my many favorite dishes.”
“This is the best vegan ramen I think I’ve ever tried. Unfortunately the bowl I ordered came with an egg even though I ordered the vegan veggie ramen. I just scooped it out as none of the yoke got into the broth. It was disappointing ordering explicitly vegan, but not arriving as such. I’m conflicted because the broth was delicious and it was packed with bamboo shoots, bean sprouts and corn. The noodles were nice and chewy and it was topped with soft tofu. You could also modify your bowl to have garlic and spicy. I got both mods and I think I would get it spicy again but no garlic. The both has plenty of flavor without it. I would recommend that are very explicit when asking for vegan. Make sure you say no egg Updated from previous review on 2025-12-14”
“There's something about a child quietly doing homework in the corner that immediately confirms both the authenticity of the cuisine and the seriousness of the enterprise.
Menu photos behind the checkout are beautifully deteriorated—faded and yellowed like a well used coke-nail. A single, original koi fish painting on the wall anchors the interior décor. Gentle music caresses your ear drums, originating from what I can only assume is a distant province of western Yunnan. The carpet presents an ambitious lotus mosaic, tying the whole ethnographic tableau together.
An anthropological experience awaits.”
“Best hot pot that I've had in a very long time! Everything was fresh and the service was great. We'll come back!”
“Wow by far the best tacos I've had in a long time ...service was amazing will definitely come back Monica was our server and she was awesome ....I give this place a 10 supppperrr good”

“Ordered the chile rellanos and a bean and cheese burrito. The burrito was great. Standard, and good. No frills, just what I wanted. It came with one green and one red sauce. The sauces were good and flavorful. The chile rellanos were soft which is not my preferred style (I like crispy), but they were great. They came with rice and beans and sour cream and guac and were smothered with a tortilla on the side. I really enjoyed the food.
The staff were friendly. There is an interesting quirk to this place, I think it is the only place I have been to that has the drive-through on the wrong side. So, you pick the order up through your passenger window. I wasn't sure how it was going to work out, but it was fine. The person at the window stretches out to you with a tray and uses this method to hand your payment and food back and forth. I will say, part of the menu board was hard/impossible to read with the way they have it set up. I had to pull up, read the combos, then back up and enter the drive thru. Not a big deal, but this is one place that makes this place a little different than the rest.
I would say that the strange drive thru configuration may impact you if you have a handicap and cannot lean far over your passenger seat to get your order and pay so keep that in mind if handicapped.
Overall, it was great. I will definitely be back.”
“When I used to live and work around here. I often come here to enjoy breakfast. Then I moved far away. But the story doesn't end. My car got stuck here last night. They have two employees who have come out to help me out Finally my car was rescued. Thank you. Even if I live too far away. I'll come back to dinner whenever I get a chance.”
“Our miso soups and edamame arrived within two minutes of ordering despite Sushi Aji being at 100% seating capacity. Sushi platters followed quickly and the tuna and salmon lovers combo was one of the better bargains I've seen for Denver sushi with the tuna nigiri being melt in your mouth soft and the salmon fresh as well. All the rolls were great, the ginger was sharp and our server made sure we had everything we needed on a great cadence. We'll be back!”
“We went for lunch or the first time today and had the amazing lunch. We eachhad the lunch special, which includes a specialty Pizza and a salad of your choice for starting at $14.50. I had the funguy Pizza, which is a Mushroom Pizza. It was absolutely amazing. I ordered mine without arugula , as I do not perfer that. It was so good that I ordered a full size to take home for dinner. Our server was Jordan and she was awesome. Very friendly and knowledgeable. The only downside I have to say is that their drinks were just okay. We had a Italian spritzer that was kind of tart, and then I ordered a Vodka martini, which they said they do not commonly make, and I could tell why... I sent it back and ended up getting a glass of red wine but the pinot noir was mediocre at best. I think management should up their Wine selection and quality, if they're going to pair with Italian dishes. I would definitely go back and order more Pizza and the meatballs look amazing as well.”

“My husband and I have driven past this place several times and somehow overlooked it. Saw some reviews and thought we'd give it a try. Super impressed. Our waiter was so personable, the food was so yummy and so were the house margaritas. The latter are made from scratch and you can tell. The atmosphere is what I'd call basic but what impressed me was the cleanliness. The space was spotless. We'll definitely be back.”
“Got stuck while traveling thru Denver. My brother took me to GB Fish & Chips and this place had it going on!! The food and drinks were epic and our server Jess!! It just doesn’t get any better!! Made a bad trip better with their food and atmosphere!! Thanks Jess!!”
“This place is the TRUTH. True small biz doing things fada PEOPLE 👊🏼✊🏼🫶🏼”
“Interesting concept restaurant - I’d describe it as Chipotle but Mediterranean food. There are some ‘curated’ bowls and salads if you don’t want to pick your own meat/veggies and accomplishments to make a pita sandwich or bowl. Nice selection of different drinks including a cucumber mint that was really tasty add to the nice strong plain ice tea. About $20 though for a salad bowl and drink. Lots of options, many vegetarian. I like that there were lentils as well as rice for a starch and the sauces and toppings were fresh and good. Pita chips were extra- it would be nice if one or two were provided for salads. It’s very busy starting at about 11:30 and it’s not many tables. Most people seem to do take out.”
“Had a very nice brunch here. Having lived in Buenos Aires before I’m always looking to relive that experience. Prices were fair. My only issue was that it took a bit for someone to come to the register and the food took a bit too. However i cannot complain about the food. Had the churrasco and eggs it was a great brunch.”

“I've been drinking their coffee for last 5 years. I order their beans every now and then (I live in Texas but always stop by whenever I'm in Colorado to visit my family). I really appreciate their customer service. Last bag of beans were so bad and I knew that was not their norm. I felt that they needed to know. They were quick to investigate why it was a bad batch and apologized. They sent me a bag of their new freshly roasted beans. Thank you and I'll see you in summer when I come up for a visit, have a cortado ready for me.”

“I ordered catering from El Pollo Loco yesterday for a group event of 30 people, and I was genuinely impressed.
Our order was ready right on time, everything was hot, and the food was absolutely delicious. Every single person on our team was happy, which is not easy to do with a group that size.
The manager went out of his way to make sure I was taken care of quickly and efficiently. I really appreciated that they even asked how I preferred the catering to be packaged. I had ordered box lunches, but they offered alternative options like trays to make sure it was most convenient for our event. That level of attentiveness and flexibility really stood out.
Great food, great service, and a smooth experience from start to finish. We will definitely be ordering catering from them again.”
“love coming to Jake's on any day! I especially love going there on Thursday and Friday nights for karaoke and every other Tuesday for open Mic night! the staff is fabulous, drinks are fair-priced, enclosed patio, upfront parking for bikes. The food is better than any bar I've ever eaten at. (any of the cheese steaks) love this place!”
“Amazingly delicious treats and deli delights can be found here. So good I went twice in one week. Definitely will be back. Very kind family owned and operated. Reasonable prices and top quality.”
“Friendly staff and they are patient with people watching sports there. Love the decor and vibes.”

“Fantastic. Stopped for a breakfast burrito and it was quick, hot, and delicious. They offered three levels of heat for the chili and the hot had a little kick which was nice. I had the chorizo, egg, potato, chili and cheese with hot chili, and my son had bacon with the mild chili. We both enjoyed the burritos. They are a good size and very flavorful. The man working inside the trailer was super friendly and my burrito was ready in about 2 minutes. I live nearby and have been meaning to stop by. I will definitely be back!”
“I placed an online order for the Lunch Hot Pepper Chicken with Crab Cheese Wontons, Hot & Sour Soup, and Steamed Rice. I was looking for a flavor similar to the Garlic Pepper Chicken I used to order at J's Noodles in Denver, so I also asked for a small container of their Garlic Sauce. Given some of the other reviews and my first impression of the restaurant, I was skeptical but ended up being pleasantly surprised by how good the food was. The portions were large (I had enough for leftovers the next day) and the prices were fair. The dish wasn't as spicy as I expected which was a little disappointing, but the flavor was definitely on-point. So far, this is my favorite Chinese restaurant near Wadsworth & US 36. I will definitely be ordering from here again.”
“I'm glad I stopped in because this place is great! Excellent coffee brewed properly by really friendly and knowledgeable staff. I've had their beans purchased from another shop before, but it's always great when someone who really knows what they are doing with a specific coffee makes it. Awesome baked goods too!”
“We used to own a coffee shop and sold it in March. This is the first coffee I have found since then that I can say was AMAZING. Very smooth and made perfectly. Highly recommend!”
“😁This past sunday we had a private dinner buffet service for my 70th birthday. The food was great, the service was terrific, and the entire evening was magical. I highly recommend this restaurant. Our favorite since pre-COVID, and we will continue to support this family owned business.”

“So disappointed in my tuna sub tonight !! No tuna in it at all it was so small worst one I’ve ever had. But then again, my sister, reminded me you guys are getting sued because your tuna sucks. Not tuna at all. Never going back. And I will remind all my coworkers not to go there. Very disappointed !!!”
“Recently found a treasure at 64th & Simms. Happy, friendly staff. Extensive menu, hard to choose. Went with French Dip and my friend had the Club. Both were fantastic with fresh ingredients. Great bread! Pleasant vibe, very clean with local artists featured. We'll definitely be back. Want to try breakfast. Saw someone else's breakfast burrito. It looked amazing. Can't wait to try CBD coffee.”

“We love this local spot. Always consistent and comes out great every time. Especially when Alyssa is behind the counter.
We come here multiple times a week, our only complaint is sometimes they won’t have boba later in the day with no plan on making any more. And if we came right before they closed, I guess it can be expected. However, we’ve arrive as early as 1.5-2 hours before they close and they have been out of boba with no plan on making anymore, which is very unfortunate.
Other than that, great vibes and drinks.”
“Ordered a mushroom Philly and subbed provo in, then added a bunch fixings. The prices were off from what's in maps here so I added pics. They also have desserts. I saw a cannoli there. They said it was $4... I'm out at that price. Places way overprice cannolis still.”
