“Awesome restaurant!! Food is great ☺“

“Flat out, best meal we've ever had. I'm going to be thinking of every course of that meal until the next time that I go. The wine pairing was perfect. Every sip of wine was good, every bite of food was wonderful, and then you put the two together and got another experience, distinct from the wine and food separately, but even more delicious. The staff was attentive, amazing, knowledgable, and so friendly. We sat at the bar and had a great time chatting with the bartenders while they told us about the food and wine and how it was working at the restaurant.

Honestly, can't recommend them enough.“

“Great option for those that are gluten free and/or dairy free.“

“Awesome eats !! Grabbed a bite while hopping around thee very diverse center.“

“This ice cream is so good. highly recommend. Best ice cream I've ever had.“

“Our first time dining at this place though we have wanted to go for a while after someone posted about it after they opened. Finally made it and glad we made reservations as it was packed since it was peak time Friday evening. Spoke with Koji-san, the owner, while we were waiting for our table and he also stopped by each table to check on them which we thought was great. We had the takoyaki, kaisen-mix okonomiyaki and the spicy miso ramen. All came within a reasonable amount of time and were delicious! Koji-san explained the background of offering takoyaki, which was so interesting and great for him to share. We will definitely be back to try the other menu items, esp their sushi, which looked delicious! Great to see a business busy and doing well!“

“sam is amazing and has checked in on us multiple times and we are having great service!“

“Highly recommend !!!! Great place for food, drink and music!!“

“I’ve been here several times recently. It’s very casual, a simple no-frills atmosphere. The food is very, very good. They offer a split ramen option for sharing and to add extra ingredients as desired. The Izakaya sushi roll is terrific, delicate, and not served too cold. The curry is pleasantly mild: not too sweet or spicy, and very delicious. They have a few sake and beer options and many other dishes I haven’t yet tried. I recommend being patient as this isn’t fast food. They obviously care about the quality of ingredients and preparation, and I’ll be back, frequently.“

“The food is amazing and hits the spot after a morning of studying. I always feel so welcomed by the owner and staff. Such a cute breakfast spot!“

“Delicious Salvadoran food“

“I eat here frequently for lunch and dinner. Food is amazing, service is so friendly and knowledgable. Manager always come by the table to check on food+service. Recently brought a friend who has Coeliac and they were impressed with the food offerings and the care from servers and kitchen. I prefer the lunch specials because the soup choice are yummy! Of course the margaritas are famous for a reason! Lots of choices from the bar. Love the interior with plant walls and the roof top deck has views to die for! Highly recommend!“

“We got the Herbs de Provence cake for our small wedding and it was amazing! I was the only GF one of our group but everyone loved it. Highly recommend if you want a delicious GF cake!“

“excellent food...different food choices and quality food“

“Such amazing food and very nice customer service! I went with a couple of friends and the Mater paneer was divine. Garlic Naan is definitely a must here as well. Very fast service as well.“

“I was in Denver for work and had a day off. A friend suggested making the drive to go here. I was expecting a coffee shop kind of place. I was so surprised. We sat outside, had lunch and multiple drinks. I had their house chai and a tea that our server suggested would pair nicely with the homemade blueberry scone and lemon curd I ordered for a sweet treat. The outdoor patio is as gorgeous as the inside. The weather was perfect and being surrounded by the beautiful rose bushes was amazing.

I want to give a shout out to out server, Fabriana. She was wonderful. She has a great personality for this teahouse. She asked questions to make sure she made suggestions that were awesome. Everything she recommended we loved. We were totally in chill mode and Fabriana matched our energy perfectly. The teahouse is very fortunate to have her. We decided when we are back in a week we are going to go back and do the tea service. We really hope Fabriana is there so we can see her and get her great service. Thanks for a great afternoon!“

Plus they showcase the artwork by local artists. Kamala, Berenice and Christian are always so warm, friendly and welcoming!“

“Found this place randomly.....looking for nonchain restaurant. Awesome service along with awesome food. The burgers are soooooo good. You will eat ALL of it for sure! Would definitely recommend to anyone visiting Colorado to make this a stop. You will not be disappointed.“

“The real reason to visit Alpine Modern Café in Boulder is the food. I drove all the way from Denver just to eat there, which should tell you everything you need to know. The breakfast bacon croissant was excellent—fresh, full of flavor, and completely unforgettable. It’s the kind of dish you think about later in the day and start planning your return visit around.

The coffee was also very good—exactly what you want from a café—and the space has a relaxed, welcoming feel. The café is in a great location and easy to get to from anywhere in Boulder, which is helpful since resisting a second visit would be nearly impossible. Parking can be a little limited, and you may have to park down the road… but consider it a warm-up walk for the croissant. It’s worth it.

I would absolutely recommend this spot to anyone looking for a memorable meal and a great coffee experience, with a side of “why didn’t I come here sooner?”“

“Very friendly staff (we met multiple). Our main server provided excellent insight to various brews to help us find our preference. Food was DELISH. They provide dog bowls and cold water and were very friendly towards the dog. Beautiful setup with plenty of shade available“

“Trendy boulder breakfast place. the caneles and doughnuts are all very tasty. tea and coffee is tasty ,too. appears to be trendy with the boulder crowd - there are always lines on weekend and holidays. all bakeries are homemade I was told and they are taking great pride in it. They do have sandwiches - they switched it to freshly made instead of just putting them on display ( great idea!) they sell homemade bread as well. with home made I mean they have their own baker and commercial oven somewhere in boulder.“

“Seaport, Boston location. Staff MADE SURE I was picking the flavor that I really wanted. They wanted me to feel like a welcome tourist. Mission Accomplished.“

“This is such a great page to find out all the amazing things about Boulder.“

“As someone who eats out all over Boulder, this is my go to lunch spot and often dinner. The food is so clean I always feel amazing after eating. Great flavors. Great drinks. The service is good and the staff is very friendly. The owner is often around and you can tell the place runs smoothly and is very clean. When my visiting parents stayed at the adjacent hotel they literally ate here everyday.“

“An absolutely wonderful restaurant! Great food! And Great staff! ??❤️“

“We dined here last week and the food was flavorful, tasty and quite delicious. Quantity of each dish was very good too. Our server was helpful and helped us pick a dish to add to our selection of vegetarian dishes. We had spicy basil fried rice, three sauce tofu, drunken noodles.“

“Really good gelato. Definitely worth it.“

“I have been a patron of Dot's for almost 40 years!! 'nuff said 😁❤️“

“It’s a little $$$$ but this is the best Asian food I’ve had to date. (And my first job was at an Asian food restaurant). The flavor is amazing. No need for soy sauce! We had Baos, Lo Mein and Kung Pao Shrimp. We also had hot tea and boba. The atmosphere isn’t glamorous but staff is really friendly.“
