Wonderful neighborhood restaurant! The owner/manager is incredibly friendly and kind, and always goes out of her way to reach out and provide great customer service. The deli turkey sandwich is one of the best sandwiches I've ever had, hands down. And their brownies are amazing - I would never know they're gluten free, and I'm not even a big brownie person. Come and support this wonderful small business!
People around here aren't rich.I ordered a Ruben sandwich and asked for it to be put on a grill which is the way it should be done.And they toasted it anyway. 16.00 FOR SOME BULLSHIT AS SANDWICH??? I live a few feet away and when I got home it was soggy.Im definitely reporting you..and I will be in there tomorrow to complain.IM DEFINITELY MOVING FORWARD ON THIS...IT NEEDS TO BE CLOSED DOWN. ILL HAVE SOMEONE COME IN AND CHECK ON THE HEALTH PART.Ill do everything I can to shut you down.Go where people have money to spend almost 20 bucks to get a sandwich with no extras.I would rather eat at subway
Stopped in here and got some lunch in between jobs when I was working in the area. I got the pesto chicken sandwich. It was delicious.
Worth noting to anyone who might get this sandwich that at least in my case there was not very much chicken on the sandwich. Maybe around 4 oz which is not even a full chicken breast. There were multiple times where I got a mouth full of sandwich that had just bread and arugula.
Now I was happy with that because I was looking for a lighter option rather than a greasy burger or something but I just figured I'd point that out. It was very very good. I did not eat in the restaurant but the experience that I had with the staff and the wait time for the food was all good. Would definitely eat here again and maybe try some of their other stuff too.
Price is a little bit steep for a sandwich with not very much chicken, but frankly it's on par with what you're going to find in the Denver area, so that's not a real issue with me.
Got sandwiches and drinks here before a hike. They were absolutely delicious! Sandwiches were pretty big, and made with quality ingredients. Also the lady working the counter was very friendly.
Ultracasual spot with phenomenal sandwiches and salads.
Atmosphere is Friendly and relaxed. The food is delicious and lots of interesting options. We got the bacon breakfast burrito and I got the strawberry pancake special. The people we were eating with had a bacon burrito and his son had a French toast that looked amazing. He said he always get the French Toast. We will definitely be back!
Today we ordered takeout. We had been in a few weeks ago and loved the mac&cheese and Brussel sprouts. When I got home and looked at the portion size of my takeout I was upset. Not at all what we had when we ate in. There is barely a cup of mac&cheese. For the price we paid you need to do better. I will not be ordering takeout from Tessas again. I will try eating at the restaurant again, but if portions remain this small I will not go back.
Amazing food and amazing staff!! I would highly recommend if you are in the mood for a fantastic deli experience! I would’ve taken a photo but I ate it too fast due to the fact that it was so delicious looking!
I have been living in the area for 3 yrs now and the food here has consistently been delicious! Just had the white bean soup this eve and carrot cake and loved both. One of my favorite spots on Colfax.
This place is AMAZING every time my husband & I go. Stop what you are doing, ditch all the trendy, fast-casual, destination, hipster restaurants & eat here immediately. Nothing pretentious about it, amazing atmosphere, friendly, & fast service. Love that this place is in my neighborhood!

went in with the wife after checking out the neighborhood and the food was fresh, the women at the counter was friendly and explained how they made everything in house. Great pricing

I paid $24 for a lack luster sandwich and a canned Coca-Cola.. I really wanted to like this place and get a new go-to deli. I got a sandwich with mortadella on it (supposedly) but I don't think there was any actually on there. I'll give them a second chance, but for now they only get 2 stars.

One of the best sandwiches places I’ve had in a while. Odd location but so much delicious food. The brisket dipper and the muffletta were phenomenal. Free goodies if you dine in! The bread is somehow soft and crunchy very rare
