    CHILAQUILES w fried chicken
    Sara C.

    Great service, delicious food and the food came out so quickly after ordering it was amazing! The restaurant is clean and the food is always tasty. This will always be a staple. There are quite a few places that came and gone but hope early bird can stick around for awhile. I loved the burrito, the biscuits & gravy and their chilaquiles are delicious too. More upscale than your hole in the wall mom and pop shop for sure!

    My friend and I tried this place when I was in town. The service was great. The food was delicious and the coffee was amazing!! The decorations at this restaurant, were so cute with a bunch of roosters everywhere. They have patio seating as well. We'd definitely come back if able to next time in town.

    Chicken Fried Chicken
    Mo C.

    This is a great place to grab some brunch before heading to Bruz for a craft beer. The food here is fantastic! It's pricey for breakfast food, but very delicious. The Chicken Fried Chicken and the Biscuit were especially good. There's not usually any available street parking. But, there is a free parking lot behind the restaurant. That is usually pretty full, too, but we have always been able to find a spot.

    Eggs your way

    Service was great! We had a reservation because it was the weekend and very busy. The food was a bit disappointing for me. My biscuit and potatoes were very dry for some reason. It could be the dish I got or maybe just a slight mishap. I would still recommend though because the service and atmosphere made up for it.

    FRENCH TOAST
    Kimber H.

    Creme brûlée French toast with mixed berry copaotr and Chicken fried chicken were soo good. That arugula with the tomato also is extremely refreshing. Highly recommend.

    Chilaquiles, Rice & Quinoa Egg Stir
    Kim H.

    Fabulous food, and very celiac-safe! The owner's daughter has Celiac, so they're very knowledgeable. There is a separate fryer (friend chicken!), and they cook their gluten-free grill items separately. The chilaquiles were fabulous. Also, the server was really nice

    The Cocktail Menu
    Tarshe C.

    This place is a must try if you ever visit Denver. Let me say all recommendations made were absolutely amazing. We had a great experience, The ambiance is very welcoming. They have Amazing food for Brunch (The Chicken and Eggs was awesome w/ the gravy) But the Grille with Bacon and French Toast was my absolute favorite and service was great as well . Staff here is extremely friendly . There is a wait, so I would recommend making a reservation before hand. But I'll definitely be back again...

    Chicken Fried CHICKEN & EGGS
    Marisa H.

    An awesome little brunch spot. The menu features a great mix of creative dishes and classic favorites, all made with fresh ingredients. The atmosphere is welcoming and the staff is attentive and friendly. Be sure to check out their specials!

    RICE EGG STIR
    Lindsey K.

    One of the things I love about the denver dining out passbook is finding places I might not otherwise have discovered. Really cute place in a development off pecos. Lots of unique menu options, I went with the egg stir and my partner had the la jefa. Their house made hot sauce is amazing. 9am on Saturday and sat immediately and food was out in less than 10 mins, really efficient.

    A sizzling fajita platter with steak, chicken, warm tortillas, chips with dips, and a margarita.
    Richard R.

    Everything in the picture went well. The fajita platter is absolutely mouthwatering tender steak, juicy chicken, fresh tortillas, and all the dips on the side. The margarita makes it even better! I'd definitely bring my friends here to enjoy this feast together

    Chicken fried chicken and eggs was amazing!  Nice little cafe. Would recommend!
    Rebecca P.

    Great food! Cute cafe! Recommend the chicken fried chicken and eggs! The burrito with green chile sauce was a hit also.

    Passionfruit mimosa and Colorado Tequila Sunrise
    Keeley F.

    Such a cute spot! The staff was so friendly and attentive. The menu has such unique food and drink options. The veggie eggs benedict was one of the best breakfasts I've ever had. Super fresh and delicious. Also, the happy hour offers lots of $6 drinks..can't go wrong with this place.

Took a little time for the sandwich to be prepared but they slice their meat there. Prices are a bit high, but maybe I'm still trying to get used to inflation costs.

    We stumbled upon Lloyd's while walking in Old Town Arvada, and I was very much in the mood for a…read moregood sandwich. We popped in and checked out the menu. It took about 5 minutes for us to be greeted by anyone working; there were two employees working behind the counter, both were busy making sandwiches. Eventually one let us know it was going to be a few more minutes before they could take our order, to which I didn't mind - I recognize it takes time to make sandwiches. We waited for a bit (probably ~10 minutes), and then decided to place an order with them online and continue walking around while we waited. It took about 15 minutes for our order to be ready, so maybe this is the best way to go about ordering so you're not just standing around. To clarify, I didn't mind waiting but it also made sense to place the order and then walk around while waiting. I ordered the North of I70 Italian sandwich, and indicated that I wanted mayo, mustard and oil + vinegar. My wife ordered the sweet baby turkey, and also asked for mayo and salt + pepper. Neither of our sandwiches had any condiments on them (pic included). Each sandwich cost $20, and while I realize that the price of good deli meat has gone up, it was definitely a bummer to not have exactly what we ordered on a sandwich that costs so much - $40+ for 2 standard size sandwiches. The other thing to note is that the mushrooms are not fresh - also included a pic of the mushrooms which I assume come from a can/jar. Had I known the mushrooms were not fresh, I would not have ordered them. I was really rooting for this place to be good, but was overall disappointed in the experience and outcome of our order.

    I would strongly recommend people to stay away from the food they serve here unless maybe you are…read morewanting a cold sandwich and I am told they have good beer. They simply Do Not care about general food safety getting a hot meal here is rather risky I will explain why. My friend was a cook here for a short while and quit on them once he realized they care nothing about serving food that is safe to eat, he saw them do sooo many things that would easily make the food contaminated and unsafe to eat and somehow that was there process of doing things. Here are a couple examples of menu items one should try to steer clear of Chicken parm sandwich- they cook off a large batch of the chicken cutlets and let them sit at room temp for a hour or two until someone orders one they refries them for a minute or so, your supposed to keep food hot once it is cooked especially chicken to leave cooked chicken at room temp for so long is extremely risky to the public's health. Meatball sandwich- they leave there meatballs on the hot line all day then they save all of the hot food items from the day and reuse them the next day without properly cooling any of the food and the cooks will leave these item sit out at room temp for about 45 mins before even putting them into the cooler. Many issues with this practice first of all hot food should be discarded after 5 hours according to the health department because after 5 hours it will start growing bacteria, to leave it on a hot line all day then save them for the next day and not even cool them down properly is Crazy risky to people's health and they do not just do this with the meatballs they do it for many of there hot dishes they are used for days on in, not properly cooled and not properly tracked for how many times it has been reheated and such me they keep them in the same pans it's flat out gross. Other issues my friend encountered there was never seeing anyone at all wash there hands at any point in time, a ancient dishwashing machine that didn't clean anything at all it didn't even get hot so half of there dishes are greasy and have food residue on them, in his short time there he saw people fired for no reason what's so ever from what he was told the owner fires people left and right and doesn't even give reasons as to why, that's why they have ads up on indeed looking for employees 24/7.

We had the Taylor ham, egg, and cheese, the sloppy gnome, the patty melt, eggplant parm, the Cuban, and great fries. We shared, and everyone was thrilled with the flavors and textures. I was so happy my friends enjoyed Jersey food as much as I do! We all loved the atmosphere, and the seating is plentiful inside and out. The parking is wonderful since they have their own lot! I have to add that we asked to speak to the owner, Ken. We were told he is not really a talker. To our surprise, Ken came over and was terrific! He told us the story of his dad starting at 4 am every day to begin the prep for the Taylor ham, egg, and cheese sandwiches for all the Jersey trades workers and other patrons. This is a strong part of the NJ culture. Ken told us the story of how he got connected to gnomes (ask him to see the tats). Ken shared his favorite Jersey food and how he got to Colorado. Great stories that should be on the website! Ken also spoke extremely highly of the brew master. Since I am not a beer drinker, I have no recommendations. This is a fun place to visit! We drove 40 minutes to get there, and we all want to return soon. Thanks, Ken and your talented staff!
