We ordered pasta, herb roasted chicken and crème brûlée. The taste for all these items were quite under whelming. Pasta for some reason has large chunks of tomatoes with balsemic vinegar. I never had this combination in pasta any where. The chicken was under cooked and the sauce was pretty bland. Same for crème brûlée. I was not expecting a Michelin star gourmet taste but definitely not so under whelming that we ended up not finishing our plates. The service was fine with server doing her best and was prompt however, I will not recommend this restaurant to any one.
We went on a Sunday morning for brunch and it wasn't terribly busy, but there was only one waitress working and she seemed stretched thin. I commend her ability to keep all the tables serviced and we didn't have any problems getting refills of water and coffee.The food itself was not great though. All of our dishes came out room temperature. Everything was fully cooked, but just not hot enough to be good. I suspect this might have something to do with having only one waiter, and in that case they need to hire more people.

Was turned away despite showing a legit driver's license at the bar. No surprise it's empty on a Friday night.

We had a good meal at The Embassy not long ago, though we got a poor table tucked in a recess near the rest rooms. This time we made a reservation, with request for a better table. We got the reservation confirmed. Then when we got to The Embassy, we found it was closed! This restaurant should make sure its website and its reservation system knows when the place is closed.
There was no hostess when we walked in. I received my water with this black dust on the bottom of the glass and the table next to us received a glass with lipstick on it. We waited an hour for the food and it came out cold. The burger was so overcooked that it was hard to eat and the green goddess wrap had no flavor.
Coffee and food was great. Salmon and Caper bagel was on point. The music selection was great too. Layout is fun!

Have been there twice. The variety of food and drinks offered for brunch was excellent. Pricier than many other spots, but the food is worth it. I found the service to be average (missed order and wait time for the check), but they were very friendly and apologized for the missed order. I will definitely be back and find the Embassy a welcome change from the usual available in this area.
I came here for a date with my fiancé for brunch. The staff were very accommodating. The space was comfortable and most of all the food was very delicious!! The Crème Brûlée cheesecake is a must have!

Was pleasantly surprised by this place. Loved it. Vegan options were nice. Nice decor and ambience. Very accommodating and helpful staff. Will be going back for sure! It's a treasure in college town. 5 stars!
Great breakfast. Denver omelette was tasty. Great location - near public parking garage. Environment is very nice. Service was great. Food was good. Quiet. Not crowded (but not empty) arrived at 10am for breakfast.
