“We recently expanded our home and entrusted the electrical fit-outs to an exceptional team. Their professionalism and attention to detail were evident throughout the project. Among the highlights were the installation of several skylights equipped with electric shades. These remote-controlled shades not only enhance our home's aesthetic but also offer convenience and energy efficiency. We are thoroughly impressed with the quality of the work and the seamless integration of modern technology into our living space. Highly recommended for anyone needing skilled and reliable electrical services!“

“A fun place to meet friends or family. Food is creative and excellent!“

“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!“

“Food was amazing! Service was great restaurant was clean“

“Jaden is the reason I continue to come back to this bar. She makes the environment so fun and a reason to come back. She’s been the best bartender and her energy and kindness is unmatched. If you want to come check out 3s Bar come for Jaden. She’s makes the experience more than worth it.“

“Visited in May 2025, everything was well done chips seem to be handmade in house. TVs were not all on an active channel. Food was great, but fans circulation of air cooled it too fast. Restrooms downstairs may not be best for handicap access.“

“Good service, good hospitality and great food! Always enjoy their smothered burritos. You can’t go wrong with any of their food.“

“Came in during The Christmas season and I have NEVER been in such a wonderfully dreamy and Christmassy decorated establishment!! It was so, so cute and everything we had was delicious! We came in for apps and drinks and got a holiday cocktail, the pretzel, and a devine apple strudel dessert! You will not be disappointed if you decide to stop in!“

“Charming, if just a tad heavy on the country music. The cowboy theme works because there are unexpected touches, like the rose motif above the bar. Staff was super friendly and the portions were monstrous. Some of the better prepared bar food I've had in a while. Which also benefitted from interesting choices beyond the dog's and burgers (which are excellent) like the chicken in a waffle cone with Mac and cheese. There was more I'd have loved to try, but as I said, big portions. Nice spot for an afternoon lunch on Main with my grown kids. Good to see Longmont coming back to life after the pandemic.“

“If you're looking for a place that serves drinks strong enough to make you believe you can dance like no one's watching (even when they are), this is it! The bartenders are like mixology ninjas—swift, stealthy, and capable of turning any bad day into a great night out. Just be prepared for your wallet to feel lighter and your inhibitions to feel heavier. Five stars for the drinks, and three stars for the questionable life choices made after 10 PM!“

“Cute little place to enjoy tasty coffee!“

“Just had my first experience of T!aco. Fresh, consistent quality food. Flavours off the chart, service friendly quick and on point. Very reasonably priced. Great atmosphere and the guy who runs it treats you like a long lost relative. Just perfect. Great night. Well done“

The chef, Justin, even came out to talk to us and told us about some hidden gems to drive to see! Fantastic experience! When I come back to Boulder this will be my first stop.“

“Illegal Pete's is a top tier restaurant that gives out the best food. Seriously some of the best quesadillas you can find around the area and for sure worth a stop. On top of that, the workers are incredibly nice and get food out in little time.“

“Great beers, food, and staff.“

“BBQ beans are made w/ pulled pork. Awesome, as are the jalapeño hushpuppies“

“Beautiful space with 8 different restaurants/cuisines and 2 full service bars and plenty of seating and has 2 floors + a rooftop with views of the mountains and heaters all around so you won’t get too cold, it’s the perfect place to go with a group of friends when you can’t agree on one place to eat and everyone can just order whatever they want, we loved lounging on the rooftop at sunset time!“

“Ray from the Longmont location was amazing!! He took great care of our group of 8. Even while being short staffed the service was still fast and great!! Thank you Ray!!“

“First time here. Made 6:00 reservations for two people. We arrived early hoping to have a cocktail at the bar but the bar was completely full. The hostess sat us right away. Our server very friendly and brought us water right away and asked if we would like bread and dipping oil. He also told us it was still happy hour if we wanted to get an order in. We both ordered the house red wine and the meatballs. The meatballs arrived within 5 minutes (almost too quick) our wine hadn’t even come yet. I got the mista salad and the cannelloni. Husband got the Italian wedding soup and the bucatini al forno. Food was delicious. Service was great. However, the two person tables are much too close. Our server had trouble reaching to get things to us and when the tall , thin, food runner tried to place a plate down on the table next to us and his butt was in my face, that is too close! Would love to come back if tables weren’t so close, and if the pace was a little slower. We had drinks, appetizer, salad and entree in less than 50 minutes. I know some people would appreciate the fast service, but when it is date night and you’re out of there in less than an hour, it doesn’t really seem right.“
