For our meal, we ordered the breakfast burrito, a turkey bacon and Gruyère cheese sandwich, and a full waffle topped with strawberries and cream. My sandwich was fantastic, and I loved the bread; it was a perfect blend of flavors. The waffle was heavenly as well! The customer service was exceptional. When I needed to use the restroom, a gentleman greeted me as soon as I walked in and kindly directed me where to go, which I greatly appreciated as it was a bit tricky to navigate. Overall, it was a memorable experience, and we’ll definitely return when we’re back in town!

This restaurant is fantastic, offering excellent service and delicious food. I had never tasted eggs Benedict before, but I decided to try the California Benedict, and it was amazing. They cook their bacon to a well-done level unless you request it differently.

What a fantastic breakfast spot! The Eggs Benedict were absolutely delicious, and the potato cakes were equally delightful. The café latte was also superb! However, what I appreciated most was the incredible service. Logan was exceptionally friendly and well-informed about the menu. He even provided us with recommendations for things to do in Denver since we were new to the area. The next time I'm in Denver, I’ll definitely stop by again to try the burger!
