Thank you Courtney by serving our 6 top. It was such a great lunch club .
I had the mushroom Swiss burger which by the way was cooked to perfection. She kept our waters filled. Napkins plenty and answered our questions.
A +++ all the way.

We've been here a few times. Good food. Good atmosphere.
However, I was very disappointed by the way they allowed a single patron deliberately sit at an outside table of 4+ as we walked in with our dog.
That's OK. If they'd rather say nothing than have 4 more possible customers... That's A okay.

I'll start with the positives: location, laid back vibe, beer selection.

Negatives/needs help in these areas:

SERVICE-our server was a petite goth girl, SO soft spoken (inaudible at times) & not personable. The staff were behind on bussing tables even though it wasn't busy.
AMBIANCE- muggy, hot. No AC or fans (at least it felt that way) Which was weird because it was a beautiful, temperate, fresh day in the mountains! They need to open some windows.
Lighting is awkward. It was dim, but not in a purposeful way. The colored lights above bar are out of place. Soft white lights would help. Way too many things cluttering the walls. The lizards are cute, but all the signage, dry erase boards, fake plants, Knick knacks, are tacky. The two tone grey on grey walls are not helping the lighting or vibe. Should have done white paint to brighten up the space.
FOOD- meh. The buns for both sandwiches were cold/not fresh tasting. Almost as if they grilled the buns then stored them in the fridge for later. Weird. That threw off everything about the food. The price point did not match the quality whatsoever.

I write this review as constructive feedback, in hopes they can improve. The LL deserves to be a successful business and I know they could do better if they cared & tried just a little bit more.

Our first visit, walked in the door and we were told in a rather unfriendly manor by a waitress, that they were closed so we had to go outside and wait three minutes for the place to open. She could have firstly greeted us, told us the place was closed, but to sit down and she will be with us in a few minutes. The food and atmosphere was good so we will return.

Really good food! We brought a big group unannounced (oops) in the middle of the day and even though they weren’t prepared staff-wise, the food was fairly quick and absolutely delicious! Try the dragon eggs and green chili and bacon burger!

Visiting Tinkertown, we thought of grabbing Lunch and stumbled upon the Lazy Lizard Grill. Courtney, who greet d us at the Door, turned out to be a very knowledgeable and attentive Waitress. The Gila Monster! Wow! Green Chile infused Bacon, a must for all Bacon and Green Chile Lovers! Ordered it with the optional Sweet Potato Waffle Fries, spot on. The Philly Cheesesteak was delicious as well, according to my Partner. Sitting outside, it was gorgeous, making for a memorable experience. Live Music inside as well.

The food is mediocre at best.. you always have to flag down a waitress..the music is always good.. and it's a fun get together place. They only serve beer and wine cocktails.. not a full bar.
