“Absolutely fantastic Mexican cuisine! From the rich flavors of their traditional dishes to the vibrant atmosphere, this restaurant truly delivers an exceptional dining experience. The authenticity of their recipes shines through in every bite, leaving you craving more. The service is friendly and attentive, adding to the overall enjoyment of the meal. I highly recommend this restaurant to anyone craving delicious Mexican food!“
“Food was fantastic. We hiked the incline and wanted some coffee and good breakfast sandwich. We got both. The staff was fantastic! They are super friendly and on top of things. We stepped away for 5min from our table to get a pastry after our sandwich and came back to our table being cleaned off lol. They do free refills so it was all good. But I appreciated that they were cleaning up behind patrons. There is so much to look at here! Lots of plants make the place feel calming.“
“I loved how much variety of food and options there is! I went here to go grab some ice cream and saw how much the store adores dogs. They have dog magnets, cookies and more! My dog really loves the cookies they have here. I love the ice cream they have!“
“Update: After hearing back from the owners, I realize that they are new to the business (less than 1 month) and are still learning the ropes, so to speak. I do believe in extending grace in situations like this, so I bumped the original score to 4 stars instead of 3 with the belief that the speed of service will improve over time.Original post: After reading several reviews, we decided to try this custard place.I parked near the park, so we had a 5 minute walk there. Since it is paid parking, I went to the one of the parking machines and saw you can get 30 minutes of free parking, which I selected, figuring we’d have plenty of time.When we arrived, the line was long, maybe 10-12 people. I soon realized that this line wasn’t really moving. After standing there for 20 minutes, I left my family in line, walked back to the car, drove around looking for a closer spot and got back to my family. There were still people in front of them.When we got to the window, I realized why. There was one person both taking the orders and making each item. Another person was cleaning and doing other things around the kitchen area. That person did help a little bit with our order.So how was the custard? It was good, but it didn’t stand out to me as anything special. We ordered two Turtle Splits and one custom Avalanche with cookie dough. As I said, everything was good. I’ll also add that it was a very fair price. (Note: The menu prices are cash prices; there is a small fee to use credit card.)Seating options were limited around the side of the building. When we were ready to leave, we tried to find a trash can. They didn’t have one that we could find, so we put everything in one of the public trash cans nearby.So would I recommend this place? If you like custard and don’t mind a long wait, absolutely. If there’s no wait, then definitely give it a try!“
“So glad my boyfriend knew about this place. I became disenchanted with craft beer a long time ago cause its always the same unimpressive bitter options at like every brewery. Not here! I got a flight and loved all 4 of them.Food was fantastic. It's been forever since I've been to a restaurant that had an actual homemade veggie burger patty and not that Impossible burger garbage that has plagued the entire industry.But what always makes me happy is good service. The staff here was GREAT! Fast, attentive, friendly. So hard to come by usually. The service was well above my usual experience anywhere I go.Whenever I'm back in Manitou I'll be here.Vegetarian options: The quinoa burger was great, they have an option for tacosDietary restrictions: Vegan options with modification. Gluten free buns.“
“Thank you for making my daughter's 9th belated birthday in the tea room so memorable for her and her friends. Everything was wonderful and exploring the castle afterwards was fun all of the staff was very nice and patient. Thank you so much, we definitely will be back over the summer.“
“Service was great and so were the little items around the store to peruse while you wait. My family is from New Orleans and have had beignets from there more times than I count so I was hesitant to try these. I shouldn’t have been! These are the best I’ve had outside of New Orleans. Made me want to take a trip back there since it’s been a couple years. Would gladly bring family here. Tried the chocolate dipping sauce to change it up a bit and not sure I’d get again but it was good!“
“Absolutely loved the pizza here and the garlic knots. Would definitely recommend this place if you are looking for a pizza or just a snack. The have some combo deals with a slice or two and some knots and a drink or you can just get full pizzas. This restaurant is in a great location in Manitou Springs Colorado right next to the mountains and plenty of shopping around the restaurant. Loved this place and will definitely be returning.“
“I am not vegan nor even try to be one but I am always willing to support those that are and this place never disappoints. I am always excited when we decide to eat here. Everything I have tried is amazing. The service is amazing!!! Thank you!“
“I just love the atmosphere there and the coffee is 100% delicious.Parking: You half to pay for parking but it's so worth once you get inside the establishment and first thing you smell is the wonderful aroma's of coffee and pastries.Kid-friendliness: It's very much kid friendly. Everyone that works there is so welcoming and friendly to the children.Wheelchair accessibility: So it's one level foundation there's no ramps are difficult curbs to mess with just roll up to the door and go in.“
“Slice420 has the freshest ingredients. It's our favorite pizza in Colorado Springs. We love the owners. They do so much for the community.Wheelchair accessibility: My 7 year old son is wheelchair bound. I often have to change his diaper in the back of my van (rain or shine), because he is too big for diaper changing stations. Slice420 on Oro Blanco has a diaper changer that can be used for little ones up to adults.“
“Absolutely amazing. Come prepared to eat a lot, or share sides. Lots of great food choices, and it all tastes authentic. Prices are reasonable and the owner is extremely nice. If you haven’t eaten here, you’re missing out. Great outdoor seating, delivery available.“
“Love being neighbors with these guys! A great addition to the downtown market of Colorado Springs. Looking forward to opening our luxury apartment homes 1/15/24, so our future residents are within walking distance to this amazing venue, plus so much more!!“
“Food was good. Ice cream even better! The line was long but it moves pretty quick. One thing that could improve is the waiting location for food pick up. And not making the hotdog in backwards order. Who really put mustard and onions on the bottom and a split dog on top?!? That's weird AF lol. Overall good ice cream will definitely be back for more!“
“First of all, that’s the best ice cream we’ve ever had. Secondly, the service was incredible. One of our kids doesn’t like very cold foods for sensory reasons. They made him a banana split without the ice cream to accommodate. He loved it!“

“Summa has a unique and very tasty menu that never disappoints! Plus they have a great selection of local micro brews and other standards, like Guinness on tap. Summa also hosts the local Notre Dame Southern Colorado Alumni Club for all the games which are always a lot of fun.“
“Fantastic sandwiches! Pastrami sandwich was a home run and the Doc Martin was an insanely delicious vegetarian sandwich option. I will be back... A lot!Vegetarian options: The only reason I marked somewhat instead of highly is because the vegetarian options were limited - but the Doc Martin was incredibly delightful.“
“This wonderful Veteran owned, local brewery is filled with great beer and personality!! Employees are knowledgeable, friendly, community minded and encourage well-behaved dogs and children to enjoy time with family and friends. The food truck rotation is delicious or outside food is welcome. The beer rotation and quality are some of the best in this town!! This is a must-visit location!! Thank you Urban Animal Beer Co for such a lovely experience!“
“The door we entered was at the bar area that’s separated from the dining room. Didn’t really mean to, but glad we did. It was a homey feel. Cool little Knick knacks from ages ago displayed up on a shelf. The Bloody Mary was better than the one I had the night before at Wines of Colorado, much better. Thanks. We’ll be back ?“
“A wonderful location and family running this little bistro/catering establishment.This little restaurant is pretty disarming for a reviewer. The moment you enter the establishment you realize it is an intimate family affair. The husband appears to run the front of the house and his wife (Susanna) creates in the kitchen. They are very sweet, endearing and the service was top notch from beginning to end. Their pricing is very surprising for what you receive, making this easily one of the the best bangs for your buck in all of downtown.The atmosphere is light and airy, the music was playing at the perfect volume and it was comfortable inside on a cold winter evening. My only minor critique would be it is the lighting is a little too bright with all the white walls and ceilings. Some amount of dimming would add a helping of warmth that would simply close the deal on their dining space.Their cocktail menu is better curated than many places downtown and as discussed above their pricing is amazing (not to mention their happy hour specials). You are getting crafty cocktails for nearly 30% less than you would at dozens of other places downtown. The two traditional old fashions we ordered were excellent, while the Mezcal based old fashioned, orange blossom martini and daiquiri were each a little overdone. Going a little overboard with the Mezcal made the Mexican themed old fashioned overly smoky, the orange blossom martini had a smidge too much vermouth and the daiquiri was overly sweet due to a touch too much syrup.Onto the meal. For me, the highlight was our appetizer. We ordered the Caprese salad with the charcuterie supplemental for 2 people. The Caprese was incredible, the use of blood orange infused olive oil is a stroke of genius. The charcuterie selection was also excellent with a generous Burrata, multiple meats, cheese, olives and fruit. This came out with bread rolls and naan along with some herbed butter, hummus and more olives. With two things changed this could have been one of the best charcuterie boards I’ve ever had. First the Burrata was served cold. While I prefer a warm Burrata, even room temp is acceptable, but when cold it really impacts the depth of its flavor. The second was related to the bread/crackers served with the board. It appeared we were given, what all patron’s receive as complimentary, which is a basket of dinner rolls and few pieces of naan. While these accompany the hummus (which was clearly homemade and amazing) and herbed butter it didn’t really support the charcuterie offerings all that well. A few Crostini, gourmet crackers or simply grilled sliced bread with a little olive oil would have made a huge difference when consuming the meats, cheeses and accoutrements on the board.Next entrees. My wife had the fettuccine Bolognese and it was excellent all around and the dollop of ricotta was a nice touch. I had the evening special, which was Steak Au Poivre with three gulf shrimp. I ordered the steak medium and it came out as a pretty thin cut of tenderloin, which was a bit of a surprise as opposed to the more traditional 1" medallion. I think the consequence of this was it was cooked closer to medium well, but it was still very tender. The sauce was what unfortunately hurt this dish. The brandy or Cognac used in the sauce was not completely cooked off, so I ended up with an alcohol taste off the back end of each bite. The dill coated gulf shrimp, mashed potatoes and asparagus were prepared perfectly.And finally dessert. They have many tempting options, but the waffle with peanut butter ice cream ended up being amazing and a great one to split.I’m nitpicking a little in this review, but it was a continuous theme from our first of what will be many experiences here and they are inches away from excellence in executing all aspects of their menu. With a little fine tuning, there is no reason they shouldn’t be a fixture downtown for years to come. Support small business!“
“Fantastic experience. Craig was incredibly attentive and provided great service. Definitely go for the flights of wine to find something you haven't experienced before. Baked brie, fig and prosciutto flatbread, and the warm dates were all excellent.“
“Dietary restrictions: Drinks average between 5-8 dollars. Medium lattes come standard with 3 shots of espresso- normally I have to ask for an extra shot, but not here! Drinks were really well balanced - perfectly strong, sweet and bitter probably my new favorite coffee shop!“
“My husband has always loved the shrimp fries with flamingo sauce, but I got a catfish/shrimp plate and holy smokes - that shrimp is the most amazing thing I think I've ever had. The catfish was delicious too, but the fried shrimp is out of this world. 200/10 would recommend the menu, but especially the fried shrimp. Did I mention the fried shrimp??“
“Oh hello. I was curious about this place because the hours were so limited but holy mother. This place is *outstanding*.Everything we tried was delicious. Like EVERYTHING. It was all incredibly reasonably priced as well?Nightingale is mostly just a window to sell their goods out of, so there is no where to sit in inclement weather. That said; we went on a nice Saturday morning and there were a bunch of picnic tables to enjoy our breakfast at.We got:-Fennel and fruit roll. Whole wheat roll w licorice and dried cherries and raisins I think. It wasn’t bad by any means but everything else was just so good.— Morning bun. Good lord inject this into my veins. Cinnamon puff pasty in a muffin like shape. Perfect texture-Everything roll - croissant scraps mixed with garlic and everything seasoning. Super delicious.- Italian focaccia. We ate this later in the day but it was fantastic too.By no means a heathy breakfast, but definitely a delicious one. I completely understand the hype.Vegetarian options: Lots of options for vegetarian breakfast.“
“Love the vibes. Both kids and dog friendly. There can be a lot of kids running around outside.They have 17 beers on tap, at least they did at the time we were there, not sure if they plus or minus on different days. They have one seltzer on tap and a variety of other beers.The El Mango was so good if you like a sweeter beer.Outside in the connexs they have different food options that you can select for. There’s a lot of seating, can get busy but still a good time.“
“I brought a group of 15 people for dinner and the amazing crew in the truck off Fillmore and Hancock took all the orders and filled them in 30 minutes! It was so fast and so good! I know several people, myself included, will be back for more! Gracias!!“
“Conveniently located downtown on South Tejon (across from Denver Biscuit Company and Streetcar 520). Small, clean, friendly, and good beer!! Dogs and families welcome. Pizza available or have food delivered. Outdoor space available, trivia on Tuesdays, live music Saturdays and open all week! Bring a buddy, co-workers, or plan a brewery crawl around town.“
“Go here. Great beer, friendly staff, and a kind owner. Dogs are welcome inside. They don't have a food menu but they serve pizza and popcorn. Fun atmosphere. I recommend doing flights to sample their 12 beers. If you are a first responder, military, or a teacher you need to check it out.“
“Decent American food and fusion. There is happy hour but the portion to price ratio isn’t great, so if you are really trying to do happy hour and get full for your meal, go somewhere else. It’s a small place. The decora are hipster. Our waiter was good but the guy that sat us was… not really excited about his work? We had to wait a while before waiter even greeted us, and so did others, but I understand when they’re short staffed“
“This is a great place for good coffee, good food and great employees. People are kind, there is adequate seating, just wish the actual seats were a bit more comfortable. Their pricings are very reasonable and well worth your drive and time.“
“We were having a beer next door and they made it so easy to order from! I had the not so gringo pie and it was perfect. The fries were delicious as a side. Trying to find a reason to make it over to that side of town to try more off the menu!“
“Always come here for late night happy hour. Such a great variety of food options, beautiful drinks, and Veronica, the bar tender, is spectacular. Professional, accurate, hardworking and kind. She’s served us many times. Will definitely be back!“
“Had THE BEST experience! Gabe was nothing short of incredible! As a longtime service industry employee myself & current restaurant manager I can say that the service at this restaurant is TOP NOTCH! Gabe & Alyssa are absolute GEMS! ?“
“Iconic. Amazing. Beautiful. These are from the reviews of others, and I'd echo these terms and many more, with regard to this incredible wonder. I've long wanted to drive to the top and we did so on a recent visit. It was early November on an uncharacteristically warm day with beautiful clear skies as we began our ascent, and the weather stayed perfect the whole time, getting colder as we ascended of course. The drive itself starts out very mildly in terms of grade, and frankly, excitement, but it definitely saves the best stuff for later. Once you get into the seriously twisty and steep bits, the trees start to part and reveal the spectacular views as you get higher and higher. Our rented Toyota 4 Runner was more than capable, and got us up and down with aplomb. We were initially excited as we reached the summit, until we got out of the car and headed to the visitor center. It was at that point that my wife and I both realized we had a bit of altitude sickness, in the form of dizziness, light headedness and she even had a smidge of nausea. We were surprised and how, well, almost terrible we felt. We grabbed a couple of quick pics and began our descent, and we began to feel better soon thereafter. So, be prepared for the possibility. As we came back down, we stayed in first gear on the 4 Runner much of the way, and at the mandatory brake check, the checker commented that our brakes were under 100 degrees and that we were doing a great job. The view was even better on the way down. If you're ever in this area, this is a must-do and must-see. It is everything that everyone says, totally awesome.“
“Fun little spot with great barbecue. Accommodating to gluten free diets, if needed. They also have live music and a nice patio area. Our server was very friendly and attentive. Hearty portion sizes with a wide variety of options.Dietary restrictions: They have gluten free buns and notify on the menu that you can request items be made gluten free“
“One of the best breweries in Colorado Springs. Super friendly staff, excellent view, and very dog friendly. Thier experimental list of drafts is usually very good, with lots of creativity. No kitchen on premises, but they do allow outside food and frequently have food trucks. My only caution would be is that if you are not a dog or animal person you may want to pass it up, there are usually 4 or more dogs in the bar relaxing with thier owners in this fantastic environment. If you are a dog person? It's a must to add this place to your list“
“Yummy icecream!! Trinity was very upbeat and super friendly & welcoming! Great service from this young lady. Model employee that represents the business well. The other young man was friendly as well, but he was helping other patrons. The grasshopper icecream was my fav of my 2 flavors. Thx so much!“
“The drinks are good, the staff is nice and courteous. But let's be real, the prices are high because it's the only coffee shop that the tourists can easily see. The local "high society" customers roll through with their pinkies in the air too.I much rather spend the extra money than patronize a business that hates the military and made us pay for water during 9-11, I was there! So support your local private owned.Vegetarian options: There's no meat grazers, its a coffee shop.Dietary restrictions: Cheat day approved.Parking: Its a drive through, not a hang out spot.Kid-friendliness: Kids eat muffins and like to drink.Wheelchair accessibility: Just stay in your vehicle and you can still roll up.“
“If you're looking for authentic Mediterranean food where you can taste the love look no further I assure you you will not be disappointed best Mediterranean food in Colorado inmy opinion it's hard to find good food with good flavor so when you find a place stick with it I literally drove 2 hours just for this delicious flavor“
“Nice chill tap room connected to a bike store. They serve a lot of Cerberus (which is next door) on draft which is great. Lots of indoor bike parking near the entrance.We went Monday evening and there were a few seats at the bar and a few tables (good for being the day after St Patrick’s). Bartender was nice and friendly, drinks were very good! I had the Scottish ale and would highly recommend.So glad to have these places in the neighborhood!“
“Great place to have lunch or dinner, they have a great selection of wings, beer and other adult drinks. Sports bar feel with so many TV to watch your favorite sport or you could just look out the large windows and enjoy the moutain views near Garden of Gods.“
“Wonderful dining experience. The waitress was great. Food was great. Loved the garden seating. Awesome Ruben. Loved the 5 mushroom gravy. Salmon on potato pancake was amazing. Sausage and potatoes very satisfying. Had homemade sauerkraut. Highly recommend.“
“This place is less busy than the main brewery and it’s hidden gem. We came in on a Saturday afternoon and it was nice and empty. I’m sure the owners are not too happy that it’s empty but for us craft lovers, it was bliss compared to the hectic Saturday nights that everybody’s used to. I hope they keep this location open for a good minute and I hope it doesn’t become overcrowded once it becomes discovered.“
“Tasteful brews and amazing views! I was quite pleased with the local beer options on tap and the overall aesthetic of brewery. Not to mention, the large and spacious rooftop patio and outdoor seating allowing for great views of the mountains and the ability to soak in the sunshine. Be sure to also take advantage of the M-F happy hour drink menu! Would highly recommend. I look forward to coming back when in the CO Springs area again.“
“We are on a house hunting trip from Phoenix and stopped here to have a drink and lunch. The food here is phenomenal. Had gumbo and it was superb. Perfectly spiced and balanced with ample, sausage, peppers and the right amount of rice. Had sirracha and chipotle wings. The wings were smoked and then fried crispy. They were served with carrot sticks, and the dipping sauces, blue cheese and ranch, were homemade and absolutely delicious. Kerrin was our server and she too was great, attentive and helpful. Will definitely be back. Highly recommend this restaurant.“
“Great experience! Sit at the bar if you want the best time, fun friendly bartenders making some amazing cocktails are very entertaining. The coffee bean martinis, oh my, waaay toooo good. It's just a happy low key scene that's guaranteed to make your day. First place we'll go next time we're in the Springs.“
“Nice spot in Woodland Park! They have good coffee and spend a little extra to not use the run of the mill beans on both the espresso and the drip. They use an air pot for the drip that you can get your own refills. Staff is friendly and plenty of parking. They have house made desserts. The sandwiches are around $15 but they are a good value. They have plenty of meat, condiments and seasonings. The spicy italian is delicious.Dietary restrictions: Gluten free optionsParking: Plenty of parking“
“I come here fairly frequently to work remotely and every time I come here the atmosphere is so welcoming, peaceful and for lack of a better word chill! Every barista I have been served by has been so patient, kind, and helpful in connecting me with the best first sips. However, I have to compliment Hayden on his amazing customer service, sincerely welcoming and upbeat attitude-- seriously the best and chatting with Hayden every time I come in it is a highlight. Hayden sets this coffee shop apart for me in regards to other places in town. Its the staff that makes this place awesome!!-River“
“Outstanding resort nestled in the Colorado Mountains. The property has beautiful landscaping and a good sized lake. Plenty of outdoor seating to observe and relax. You do not need to leave the property as five star dining restaurants in the resort. Plenty of staff providing excellent service.“
