We've tried this place twice, once for lunch and once for brunch, and won't be back. The food is mixed - some delicious and some not. For example, Moroccan soup - yum! Crepes - salty and kind of gross (the berries in my wild berry crepes today were spoiled and my husband's toast burned). The prices feel too high ($5.50 for two small slices of bacon; $25 for gnocchi at lunch), especially for the quality not to be there. The staff is friendly but pretentious, like they're working hard to convince you how good things are. And, while the ambiance is nice, the music is too loud and AC too cold.

You should be here!

Amazing flavors, delightful service, easy 10 out of 10.

My husband ordered the branzino, and I had the steak frites. His meal was delightful, and the Iberian rice could have been a meal in itself. My bison hanger steak was a little tough and bland (I'm DF and couldn't have the blue cheese sauce). The old fashioned was strong and not too sweet, and we both loved the GF flatbread and baba ghanoush. We would return.

2 drinks, 2 entrees, and a tip - was $75 for lunch.
Food was good. Service was good. It wasn't a super fancy place. It was way too expensive for the kind of food being served. I had a wrap. Other person had a salad. Food tasted home made with love. This place deserves a good rating because they didn't do anything wrong but I probably won't be back.

I walked 10 blocks to get here and pick up food. On the way back, my hunger got the better of me, and I ate a single potato. Big mistake, I am a block away from home now potatoless and down half a falafel wrap. Writing this has kept me from the other half until I get home.

Everything I had was the best I had ever had. Criminally underrated spot, do yourself a favor and go.

I had the Brie, a ceaser side salad, and a loaded gyro. Phenomenal, each.

Tell them I sent you. That will mean nothing to them, but it is amusing.

Happily surprised by the great experience at Red Cedar Bistro! Just so happened we showed up for happy hour and was told by our waiter, Derek, that it was wine down Wednesday… half of bottles of vino. He also recommends a few things off the happy hour menu, which we ordered, as well as the seasonal salad. Everything was delicious and very shareable. We ended with an unplanned dessert, the strawberry rhubarb crumble with vanilla ice cream. The ice cream and flavor of the dessert was good but I would have liked more “crumble”. Service was excellent, and there are more things on the menu I’d like to try. Looking forward to returning.

We found this place not long after they opened when we went downtown looking for an interesting option. We were impressed. Our server seemed a little inexperienced, but it was a minor inconvenience. Later, we returned with friends who were also impressed.

Many things on the menu look delicious, and everything we have tried was good. There are vegetarian and pescatarian-friendly options. The apps and smaller dishes are quite good, as well as the entrees.

It seems word has spread as when we returned it was quite busy, and despite that the service was good - prompt and friendly. It's nice to know we're supporting local owners, with one running the kitchen and the other out on the floor. They are passionate and professional, and that shows in the food.

One of those rare restaurants where I want to try literally everything on the menu.

Delicious food! Have only done takeout so far but will definitely be going back for in-person dining as well. The raviolo, the mushroom crepe, and both the meat and meatless gyros were fantastic. My one gripe was that the trio of dips came with *very* small portions, and the pitas were over-seasoned - a little too salty. But still would highly recommend!

Nice, laid back spot for a unique twist on Mediterranean food. Food is delicious, servers are attentive and atmosphere is friendly. Finding parking can be challenging.

My new favorite place. The service (Derek) was excellent with making recommendations from the wine to what to pair with the wine. He was one of the best waiters I have had in years. Super attentive without being disruptive. The food was so excellent, I couldn’t stop and I also couldnt stop eating my friends entree. And it was not too loud in there so we could actually hear each other!

Best place in Longmont and we will be back!

Wow, what a hidden gem! Fantastic service and food that was presented so beautifully - not to mention an amazing array of flavors (loved the hummus and green goddess tahini dressing). And relatively inexpensive!

This menu is outstanding! My wife absolutely loved the gnocchi. The owner Sandy is so nice! You can legit throw a dart at this menu and be totally happy with what you end up with.
