Stopped by to grab brunch before heading to the airport and had an absolutely delightful time! Despite the restaurant having a lot of reservations (please make a reservation!!!), they were able to sit us immediately at their full service bar, where we had a brunch of amazing food, tasty cocktails, and fabulous service. Torn between several options, we opted for the Duck Confit Hash & Peach French Toast. Two rounds of cocktails and a pot of coffee later, we are well fed, ready to face the Denver airport and lamenting Abejas isn't closer to home! Definitely stop here if you're in the area! read more

This place is just overall fantastic! We came here on an early spring evening with a couple great friends to celebrate their 10th anniversary. The service was incredibly attentive and friendly (Ryan) and he made solid recommendations on the menu. The food was all really really good. The mussels were perfect and of course the broth was key and was delicious with the bread service, which included various types of bread, butter and a great zucchini spread that we all enjoyed. The main courses were all terrific, the scallops were buttery and perfectly seared, the ono special was awesome with a citrusy garnish to add a little character to the white fish and the lamb shank was fall off the bone perfect with the hoisin sauce. The only thing that wasn't the best ever was the pistachio tort, it was good but not 'write home to your momma' amazing. Overall, the restaurant itself is charming, bright and open but not loud and everything was very clean. Will definitely be back for more, place was terrific! read more

A cute accident that we were so happy for. We were heading toward another popular breakfast shop but saw how nice and quite this place was (full of customers, just not so bustling as other places). Mimosas are just how we like them, barely a hint of orange . Husband loved that the coffee comes as a French press. Food was delicious. I had the banana French toast which two people could have shared. It came with eggs and bacon too. So much food. Hubby got the duck con fit hash and really liked it. Menu is small but there were other things I would come back for. Place is just near and cute inside and the service was excellent. read more

Awesome spot! We're doing our rehearsal dinner here. Staff is top tier. Even better food. Good date spot too.

We visited Abejas for the first time last night and from the time we walked in to the moment we left, everything was wonderful! The hostess was incredibly friendly and so was our waiter. We were provided with recommendations from cocktails and wine to appetizers and dinner. Three of us ordered a cocktail and they were all amazing! The wine list is extensive and interesting and if you need help choosing, the sommelier is happy to help. We split the mussels, which were cooked in a very flavorful broth and could easily be a meal by themselves. Two of us ordered the bison New York Strip and it was cooked perfectly. The other two ordered the striped bass and both loved it as well. For dessert we split the mint ice cream and found it to be perfectly refreshing after dinner on a warm evening. read more

We are visiting from Los Angeles and popped in as we were walking past. The outside is not much to look at, but once inside, you are greeted by warm staff and amazing food. We had the B.E.L.T and the coffee cake and both were amazing. read more

We've been here 3 times now and never miss the chance to have a meal here when we're in town. The food is just outstanding. Definitely order the bread service. It's a place to go to enjoy your meal. Casual. Lively. Staff are friendly and helpful. The people there are a mix of regulars (always a good sign) and visitors/tourists. Make a reservation. The place fills up in the early spots and then sells out. read more

This surprise sleeper restaurant in downtown Golden has excellent service. The servers are all very polished. I had the eggs Benedict with fermented chili and avocado which was excellent. The potatoes were house made which is so uncommon with the frozen squares that some restaurants call potatoes! The French toast which my companion had was just ok. It wasn't really like French toast, it was like an egg, a piece of toast and some unripe peaches. read more

Best meal on my trip to the Denver area recently. The tagliatelle and perfectly cooked octopus were the stars of the show; don't miss the bread service with the jalapeño cheese bread and olive/garlic spread, and the chocolate flourless cake. The burrata was fine but outshone by everything else and I wouldn't order it again. Returning for brunch again today; it was that good! read more

Really enjoyed my experience here. Inside was nice and bright. Allowed for conversation at regular volume, but could not hear other tables/patrons. Portin sizes were in line with the price and that smoked salmon eggs benedict would be worth a repeat visit 100%. read more

Had a delicious dinner at Abejas to celebrate a friends birthday! The restaurant was cozy and beautifully decorated, while relatively small and good sound level for conversation. We ordered drinks, the bread service (don't skip it - house made breads and spreads that rotate flavors seasonally), and some small and large plates. I had the oxtail ragù which was a good portion and tasted great despite my aversion to mushrooms, and also tried some of my friend's Sweet Potato Risotto which was unique and I would get if I went again. The server was knowledgeable, funny, and wished our guest of honor a happy birthday at the end of the meal. Would definitely return for another special occasion! read more

Amazingly tender duck! The break service- although I'm of the school of thought that it should be included, well worth spending money on it. Also tried my friend's buffalo ribs and they came out really well. Topped off the night with their homemade ice cream. The chocolate was a bit too mild on the flavors but the peach one is incredible read more

If you're thinking about brunch in Golden, you do not want to miss Abejas! Words can't describe how scrumptious the Duck Confit Hash was!!

It was just ok... after seeing the pics and menu I was excited to try here. It's a hike to Golden but I thought why not. The pasty basket tasted like day old pastry's and not great pastry's just like if you tried to make croissants with a shortcut. The muffins were hard. Got the salmon benedict and again just.....ok. The potatoes were awful they were rock hard like they got left in oven too long. Don't know that id make the trek back there for this place. read more

LOVED this experience. Abejas Bistro was literally perfect from start to finish. The plate presentation was exquisite, only to be matched by multiple layers of flavor with each dish.

Wonderful Denver Restaurant Week Dinner! I chose this place because of it's proximity to Buffalo Rose, since we were going to a concert there. Abejas is about a block away. We had a fantastic Restaurant Week dinner here! They had several craft beers & ciders available. Every dish had a fantastic combination of flavors and ingredients. Everything was seasonal and fresh. This place is great for maybe 2-4 people for dinner. They don't really have the space for a big party. So, keep that in mind. And, make a reservation. read more

Main entree for $36 untouched. Wow, this is something else. Robbery of two baby stuffed squash blossoms, a quarter of a peach, corn droppings, and a nub of zucchini. Maybe they ran out of food, it was a 7:45 reservation. To be fair the two appetizer we got were fantastic, but this meager display of a $36 vegetarian entree will makes me never want go back here. Jokes on me read more

Good brunch. Met some friends for Lunch, Sunday, but it turned out to be Brunch- as the restaurant closed soon after we arrived at 1:00...No biggie- our mistake....Further, We were supposed to meet my buddy and his wife at the wine bar across the street, he forgot his phone ( with the invite), and thought it was this establishment, so we were off kilter from the get go.. The menu was clearly breakfast/ brunch oriented. We ordered drinks...Beer in bottles and cans. Drink Garnishes were ok, but my requested pearl onions were received as onion slices. Again, how many breakfast goers order Martinis....no fault of theirs...Their not used to having martini drinkers for brunch. The Eggs Benedict was good, and Despite my vegan friend ordering his plate- sans egg, it came out with an egg perched in the middle, which he ate around. I'm not much of a brunch guy, so I can't say I would really go out of my way to come back....but it was good. read more

Absolutely Amazing! Our server Jordan is delightful and shared ideas of what to eat and even places to visit as we are visiting from VA. Portions were perfect; local food was delicious and the presentation was exceptional. On a side street so not as busy. 10 out of 10! read more

We had the best brunch at Abejas today. Our server was Scotty, who was warm and shared advice on her favorite menu items without hesitation. We had the Smoked Salmon Salad, Eggs Benedict, and Banana French Toast. All dishes were stellar as the fresh ingredients and complementary ingredient pairings shone through. My favorite item ordered may have been the Soul Searcher, which is a wellness drink that features pomegranate and blackberry along with lemon and ginger. Overall, Abejas delivers a refreshing experience and is an ideal spot to bring guests from out of town or a date to impress! We will surely return. read more

Came here with some friends to try out the "cuisine" scene in Golden. They were convinced there were no elevated dining restaurants in Golden, but this one was a pleasant surprise! Innovative & well-done food in Golden, where most of the fare is casual and/or brewery adjacent. We enjoyed some delicious house-baked breads to start, and some good cocktails/mocktails, and everyone's entrees were delicious. I had the ratatouille, which was fun & creative, but nothing mind-blowing. I would recommend to someone looking for fine dining in Golden, but not sure I'd recommend it over other spots in Denver! Did love the cozy atmosphere though, and the service was excellent! read more

Good drinks and great times. Their cocktail selection was impressive and tasty. The food was very fresh and locally sourced. I enjoyed the unique selection of menu items that change every so often depending on the season. Additionally, from walking in the door to receiving the check, all servers and hostesses we interacted with were very polite and accommodating. I'll be back! read more

First time back to Abejas in far too long and it lived up to our high expectations. We had an heirloom tomato appetizer to start and I could have just eaten a few more of those for my dinner; sadly per our great server, that'll be taken off the menu soon given it's now mid October. It was just amazing, I can't describe all the flavors that dish included! The beef ribs, same thing - I was hungry and I thought, well, beef ribs are beef ribs and I should get something more interesting, but I needed a substantial meal before the party we were attending right after dinner so I went with the ribs. So delicious! The flavors, the sauce, the tenderness of the meat plus the generous portion, it was perfect. A few carrots on the side, some other veggies, all just great. My wife enjoyed her appetizer and sharing some of my food (leaving room for birthday cake coming soon after!). And as has been said here, attentive and knowledgeable but not over intrusive service, it was a very fun experience. We both committed to visiting Abejas on a far more regular basis. read more

Good service. Very loud inside. I had the Bass and my husband had the pork. Both entrees were good. We were satisfied but not overly full. Portions are on the smaller side. The appetizer was noodles in butter with Parmesan cheese and 3 mushrooms. A child could do a better job and it was $20. This place is over rated on food. Very expensive and average quality. read more
