“I went in Sunday, around 11 am was placed on a short wait (to be expected) I was sat with a very sweet lady with black glasses, I believe her name is Marayna my husband I come in often and she’s always pleasant,very attentive suggested we try something new and upgrade our pancakes they didn’t disappoint and neither did the cooks! She should be recognized, we often see her alone in the evenings and she always handles herself so well, if she’s overwhelmed we wouldn’t know it, the red headed manager who helps seat & grabs our drinks is also very lovely you have a great team keep up the good work everyone!! 😊🙃☺️“

“This restaurant(s) is so unique and incredibly sophisticated no matter what venue you are looking for this is the place! The atmosphere is awesome due to the incredible décor, large screen, a multitude of different type of seating, large TV’s located all around the bar! The service and restaurant is second to none! The bartenders are so professional and friendly. Believe it or not we were actually asked if we were satisfied with our drinks! We were politely and professionally served our many food and drink selections! When our pizza slices were served, my mouth dropped, because I have never seen slices of pizza so huge! I have not had a slice of pizza that was so good with just the right amount of tasty toppings on mine! We ordered chicken wings, half naked and half buffalo wing sauce. The chicken wings had been fried to perfection and was so good we could not make up our minds which type of chicken wings was the best, so we called it a pleasingly tie!“

“We LOVE this place. I have yet to order something that wasn’t delicious and the staff are amazing. Always a wait, but we’ll worth it!“

“This is my favorite spot to go, the biscuits are amazing, the gravy is perfect, and the sausage is so nice. Not to mention everyone there is wonderful and hardworking. We love Mr Biscuits! definitely recommend!“

“All the way from Scotland to find this hidden gem on 4th Ave. Thoroughly enjoyed the BLTs and Reuben sandwiches. Nice seating area at the rear of the shop. Will definitely return.“

“The gumbo! Go for the GUMBO an huge butttery biscuits“

“I come here every single year on the same day for my first date anniversary! They've even accomodated our whole family on our wedding day at their other location! I've always loved them since they first opened. The service & ambiance is always top notch. Their Vietnamese coffee is tasty, with a mix of spices! One of my fave coffees in Denver.

I do think expanding to 3 locations after all this time has maybe created a level of quality control that can't be helped.

Unfortunately, it's hard to come as often now because the food has changed significantly since the beginning. The menu itself hasn't changed, so we order the same things almost every time. Their congee which used to be balanced & complex is now heavily salted/inedible (we bring it home & make a huge pot with it and still can't reduce all the salt.) Their duck fried rice is mainly oil now, and the rice soaks it in, becoming soggy. This has been the case the last few times we've stopped by or brought friends.

Their chilaquiles is still consistently enjoyable, alongside the breakfast burrito. It's just a shame a lot of the Asian brunch items that made them a standout before are no longer good.

We'll still come every year, same as always since it has such a big piece of our hearts, and hopefully the food will get back on track someday.“

“Fantastic food!! My wife and I swung in here on a whim and they really surprised us. Their breakfast sandwich was phenomenal, they offered a banana chocolate chip scone that was excellent and they have an “over night oat” oat meal that blew me away. Wonderful atmosphere, super friendly staff, I wish we had a place like that back home! Port side is five star.“

“Visited Denver in September and found Sam’s across the road from our hotel. We had breakfast every day as the menu was massive as were the portions. The service was friendly and efficient. I even came home with a baseball cap in the colours of my local soccer team 😂 Loved Denver and loved Sam’s“

“Wow! I eat GF due to an allergy, and Zell’s has just expanded my horizons! Their delicious crepes can be made completely GF! I had the Turkey, Brie and Raspberry Crepe, and it was amazing! The dessert crepes are yummy as well! I had no problems with my allergy from this food. I’m so excited to have found something new! The service was speedy yet very mindful of my allergy. The staff are well-informed about GF options. The dining area was clean and well cared for. I am visiting Denver from KCMO, and I will definitely be back!!“

“First time eating here today for breakfast and everything was delicious! Your staff was very kind and attentive. Thank you. we will be back!😊“

“Very casual environment. Breakfast was very good. Our waiter was very friendly and professional and was very attentive to our needs. I had the Belgian waffle with Virginia ham and it was cooked perfectly. The wife had the Denver omelet and she loved it. The veggies were even sautéed and mixed in with the egg, and most places don't do that. They even gave her a choice of cheese to put with it. Will definitely be going back for breakfast, and maybe try the lunch one day. There are also plenty options for meals for breakfast and lunch.“

“Legit brisket / shoulder taco - Camino. Could taste the tallow, meat had excellent bark, salsa was fresh and tasted great. Wasn't sure I was in the right spot at first as the location is in an industrial kitchen, but the food was killer. Taco was huge. I'll be back.“

“Had a great time with meeting and greeting with my team this morning!“

“Hidden gem in Lakewood for breakfast/lunch. Fresh made biscuits daily. They always have buttermilk and a rotating biscuit of the day with great sandwich options 😋 solid coffee as well“

“Excellent food!! Friendly service!!!“

“Awesome food, service & staff! My go to for breakfast while in Denver.“

“The portions are yummy and big.“

“I love bringing my family and we love breakfast“

“I have been going there for over 40 years. It is one of the best family restaurants in the neighborhood. My favorites are the Greek Chicken and Mexican Hamburger wings. The service is very personal; they all know you by name, and hugs are a delight. The owners are the best and treat you like you are part of the family. Every holiday, the decorations are professionally set up making the atmosphere calming and enjoyable to look at. They are big supporters of the Girl Scouts. Thank You to the Looking Good Restaurant.“

“Great food and service Will definitely be back“

“Just have to give Louis' Cafe a quick shout out... if you live near Golden and don't go here for breakfast/brunch regularly, you're missing out. Best service, great food, just excellent! Thank you for always being so accommodating, Louis' Cafe.“

“Mia did a fabulous job considering the circimstances.“

“Came upon Elizabeth purely by accident and had to stop. Both the chorizo and bacon breakfast burritos were great. Very filling and just the right amount of heat for me. I had to go back for a second try they were so good! Elizabeth is very sweet and would recommend swinging by any morning you see her.“

“Everything was delicious!! My spouse is a Celiac so gluten free is important. They have dedicated GF toaster and anything cooked on the grill can be cooked in a pan. The hostess and server were very knowledgeable about GF and their kitchen. My spouse had scrambled eggs, ham, and GF pancakes.

I had the stuffed French toast. It was amazing!! 3 large slices of perfectly cooked French toast. The mix of cheesecake filling and strawberry was lovely. Grandma’s apples were a taste of warmth and comfort. We both enjoyed our meals. The food came quickly and our order was correct. Everyone we interacted with was friendly and helpful.“

“I was disappointed but they made up for it and I'm greatful for that. Thanks Heather for making things right!

I had called. Was put on hold... Hung up on. Called back, no response. Quite the bummer after a long day at work. BUT, after explaining what happened they apologized and offered to take care of me / hook it up. Thanks again. DELICIOUS PIZZA 🤤“

“Food is delicious! second time here in one week😋“

“We lived nearby. Miss the place!“

“Great breakfast 👍🏼 and tasty waffles 🧇“

“My daughter and granddaughter met me here for brunch. Neither of us had been before. The menu had so many delicious items that it was hard to choose! So, we both went big and ordered a main course with a tasty side. Mine is what is in the pictures. Both meals were fabulously delicious! The ingredients were fresh and tasty and cooked perfectly. The service was also excellent.

My daughter also commented after she put my granddaughter into the high chair that she thought it was the cleanest high chair she'd ever seen at a restaurant. Great attention to the details!

Thank you!“

“Food was great. Service was a tad slow, but in all fairness we were there during a busy time. Decor is simple, true “home eatery” style. Our server was very friendly. Portions are huge, I ordered a sandwich with a soup and side salad and ended up taking the entire sandwich home. It was delicious as dinner later that night!“

“Best breakfast I have on awhile. Breakfast burrito was all handmade and homemade including the freshly made tortilla. Very nice experience. Go try them, you'll be pleased.“

“Fresh, flavorful, and full of sunshine!

I stopped by First Watch for a takeout breakfast and was so impressed. I ordered the Morning Meditation juice — orange, lemon, turmeric, organic ginger, agave, and beet — and it was absolutely beautiful (so delicious I forgot to take a photo before drinking half of it!).

I also had the Elevated Egg Sandwich (minus the bacon) and loved how fresh and satisfying it was. I almost ordered the Floridian French Toast too — that’s definitely happening next time!

The restaurant was clean, organized, and had such a calm morning vibe. Jasmine was fantastic — friendly, attentive, and made everything easy.

Highly recommend for a bright, healthy, and happy start to the day!“

“⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ Five-Star Review for Ray D. at The Original – Denver, CO

My family and I flew in from Houston for a Thanksgiving week getaway, and after hearing great things about The Original, we decided to try it out. Let me just say—we were not disappointed!

Our server, Ray D., was absolutely outstanding. He was incredibly attentive, welcoming, and made sure we were taken care of from start to finish. The food was phenomenal—everything came out fresh, delicious, and perfectly prepared.

Ray D. truly made our dining experience memorable, and we highly recommend him and this restaurant to anyone visiting Denver. If you’re looking for great service and amazing food, this is the place to be. Five stars from me and my family“

“One of the best breakfasts I've ever had, and absolutely the best omlette I've enjoyed. My wife and I shared a few cocktails, including their pride month offering. I stared with the spicy egg salad on crispy potato because the menu said "everyone needs at least one," and I try to be a rule follower. It was a good first bite, but not the best part of the meal. My wife had the chicken sandwich, which was a special menu item. It was fantastic (I had a bite). For me though, the omlette was the star of the meal. the eggs were fluffy and cooked perfectly. The sauce was a nice complement to the eggs and beet cured salmon, separately, and also as a composed bite. The real treat, however, was the spring peas (not pictured) on the inside. We'll return next time we are in Denver, and reluctantly, I'll try something else from the menu. I should add that our sever was fantastic, the atmosphere was wonderful, and the wall of sauces is a little overwhelming, but in a good way. My favorite was the Colfax Killer. I really enjoyed it on my wife's fries and the greens that were on the side of my dish.“

“Sparkles Vibe! The fresh food was amazing, the service was impeccable, and it's such a fun atmosphere!“

“My server Toni went above and beyond on customer service. we did not want for anything on our visit there. friendly assertive, amazing personality and great attitude. will be back to Waffle house to see Toni again. :)“

“mmmm ♡♡♡☆♡♡☆☆☆☆☆ they have great deals and prices for alot of food .“

“Great breakfast and brunch menu. Awesome food selection.“

“Chilli relleno burrito 🌯 so good I wish I had a second one I cry😩🥺🥺🥺🥺 on the walk home stopped in randomly! Also make sure to use cash it really helps support this wonderful business. Soooooo yummy! Especially after a super long walk home! Nostalgic comfy food warmed my entire heart. Just came back from chicago and me soul felt very loved 🥰 thank you guys!“

“lovely little vietnamese deli with everything! the banh gio is delicious and the filling is super generous. i also picked up nem chua and a frozen mam chung as well. Moving here from california i've really missed vietnamese deli foods and this place hits the spot. super great little gem. can't wait to go back!“

“steak 🥩 and eggs breakfast“

“Food was underwhelming but service by Alex was excellent. We ordered the very berry French toast which my kid didn’t like because it was smothered in what looked like an artificial berry syrup, the “toast” themselves, small and thin. The country benedict was small portioned. I felt there was more hollandaise sauce in it than eggs and hash browns and was hungry after. The lobster omelette was meh. Food came fast and we did receive excellent service from Alex, so would consider going back if we’re in the area, but food and portions need a rehaul.“
