This might take a minute! This is the best breakfast restaurant I've been to in a long time! I had steak and eggs with rye toast, they served real rye!!! BOOM! The steak was cooked PERFECTLY! That's kinda unusual for breakfast! My wife got the perisian (I think) Benedict! What a delectable dish! The hollandaise sauce was amazing, and they were generous with it! My wife loves having enough to dip her hash browns in and there was plenty! My daughter is a picky picky little eater! She got the avocado toast and then cleaned her dish!!! This place isn't going to stay a secret for long!
This is a great place for breakfast. Try the Mexican chicken fried steak or just a regular chicken fried steak. It's a Family friendly place that also serves Bloody Marys and Cocktails. It's clean as a whistle. The waitress staff with some of the best I've seen and extremely attentive. Don't forget I'm not to get a Monster Roll cinnamon roll. They're really good and seem like they're fresh made on site. There's plenty of parking it's just a general overall Pleasant place to eat breakfast.
Was a great experience! Ordered the Kitchen Sink Skillet and the breakfast chimichanga. Yum!! Pancakes were a little dry but still good. Friendly staff. Great music. Spacious booth. A little expensive but worth it! Would definitely come back.
I drive by here every day for work and had been dying to give it a try. Finally got a chance to and I couldn't be more satisfied with the overall experience. We were sat quicker than we were told our wait would be, our server was attentive, our food came out quickly despite how busy it was, the food was fantastic and super fresh, the mimosa was amazing and a generous pour compared to other places I've been. My partner and I were very pleased and will definitely be coming back. The menu is pretty extensive and has options to please a picky palette or a refined one. I can't wait to try so much more of the options. The view out the window is also very pleasant. They have outdoor seating available during more pleasant weather.
This place was absolutely awesome! We were really surprised at how good it really was ... First off the coffee rocks!! It wouldn't matter to us if the food was delicious .. but the coffee wasn't the best .. Luckily it's strong enough without being bitter .. nutty and powerfully caffeinated. The wait staff is very helpful and and kept the cups full! My wife had the Eggs Benedict.. the hollandaise sauce was really good. with just the right amount of lemon. I had the green chilli Huevos.. with hash browns. .. I'm from Houston Texas so I'm not as familiar with the green chilli sauce as Colorado natives might be. I was so WOW'ed by the incredible taste .. I might just have another full trip to Colorado just for this sauce!! While we were eating breakfast, .. a bus full of " Senior Center Citizens " filled the table behind us. Easily 16 to 20 people. Everyday chose different drinks and food .. about 3 or 4 waitress and waiters started delivering breakfast and drinks so quickly... and with the best attitude and attention to details. We were so impressed how wonderful they treated the elderly customers. I can't wait to get to come back to this amazing restaurant, .. I highly recommend you try this place everytime you're within 50 miles!!
Place was busy! There were local outages and everyone was out to breakfast. The staff here was crushing it! Turn over was fast, efficient, and polite - impressed! I had the California Benedict and it was delicious - fluffy biscuits, thin sliced ham, fresh arugula & avocado with lemony hollandaise! My family also enjoyed their meals - the classic Benedict and the Tijuana skillet. Our waitress was great! Quick with the coffee refills and a great attitude! If we’re ever in this area again we will be back Thank you for the wonderful food and service 🙏
Great neighborhood breakfast place with an excellent menu and fast friendly service. I’ve been a huge fan of crab benedict lately. They are kind enough to let you choose between potatoes and fruit as your side. Their omelettes are pretty good as well. They have plenty of parking, and both indoor and outdoor seating. Outside mini garden is a bonus no doubt. It might be slightly loud if you sit outside(since it’s next to a busy Colfax st), but other than that, you’ll love it. Ask for Shawna if you want consistent fast friendly service. She’s attentive, experienced and fun.
I just got into town after moving away and being gone for many years. The last five or so being in Florida where they don't even have green chili. So I got the huevos rancheros con green chili and it was great. I've been missing that flavor. This place is super packed on a Sunday morning but I sat at the bar and got quick service. Would recommend, decent prices too.
We asked to eat outside because of the wait. The sun was out and it was a little cold, but not extreme. We had servers help us and checked-in on us consistently. Wonderful food & great service! Thank you!
Went all out for breakfast with my family. Everything was superb! Service was so lovely and inviting. We were sat within a minute of walking in which shows someone is keeping an eye on the door even if they aren't standing right there. Wasn't too crowded [Wednesday morning] but everything came out hot and fresh and delicious! Server was very attentive to refills and if we needed anything extra. Steak was cooked perfectly, French toast was delicious [not just egg bread tasting] hot chocolate was perfect temperature and well mixed so no powder clumps, the cinnamonster cinnamon roll was AMAZING 10/10 recommend, coffee cake was soft and light. Absolutely amazing local place that we will certainly return to if we're back in Colorado!
