    This was our first stop in Denver and I am so happy we came here! The staff was super friendly and gave us recommendations from their menu. We told them that we were going to splitting both of our meals and they went above & beyond to split our meals & put them on separate plates. We ordered the breakfast sandwich and the chicken and waffles. The potatoes were cooked to perfection and were super crispy. The meal was one of my favorites from the trip.

    This place was awesome!!! We stayed at a hotel by the airport and we were headed back to Vail, this was right off i70, not too far, and it was a gem!! Great coffee, excellent food all served Nola style. Definitely recommend!!!

    While we had to wait for a table for about 20 minutes, it was to be expected because the restaurant is small. And it is popular! Been looking high and low for a good spot for huevos rancheros, and found one. Great flavor, and I love the crispies of the tortillas. The service was amazing. We had a different server that took our order someone else that brought coffee. Someone else to give us the bill and they just seem to have a well oiled ship there.

    I have been wanting to try this place for sometime but it's always so busy or I miss their open hours. Finally made it on a snowy cold morning and the food here is amazing. Def plan to come early as there was a wait but the wait was worth it. Lots of southern style dishes, paired with your beverage of choice. The wait staff is so helpful and amazing and the place feels so cozy. Kind of like an upgraded silver grill.

    Hubby and I are always looking for a spot to have breakfast on a Saturday- now that's he has Saturdays free after 17 years or after Sunday church! So you know me I'm always googling or yelping because I know how important reviews are and I found Four Friends Kitchen!! This place is very nice and even a little romantic for the summer because they have a roof top to eat breakfast on and enjoy the warm weather. The service was great, we met the manager and he was nice and we talked about maybe having an event there one day! Now I ordered the chicken fingers, potatoes and a chocolate chip pancake and my husband ordered the usual: eggs, bacon, sausage and a pancake. The pancakes are huge!!! The food was delicious and my fingers cooked extra crispy! And my pancake tasted like dessert! Right up my alley!! ONE important thing to remember: you must make reservations because there is always a wait!!

    A cute brunch place but nothing special. We tried a few of the dishes on the menu, nothing really was amazing. The Smoked Brisket Hash and Eggs sounded delicious but really lacked flavor even with the red chili ranchero sauce on the bottom. The chocolate chip pancake was OK The coffee was lacking. The "Kitchen Sink" was also nothing special The location was cute and the service was fast but didn't see the small print about the 4.25% additional service charge that is not part of the tip until after the meal was over. We left and went to another coffee shop for a proper coffee right after.

    That is French toast.

    I haven't been here in a long time, but was in the area. The space looks the same, which is nice. The music was loud and not my cup of tea. However, even worse was two of the waitstaff were singing alone to the awful songs. Easily ignored though using ear buds. The food is where things went down hill. I had the French toast which was just toasted bread. It wasn't soaked in eggs at all from what I could tell. The sauces with it were as I remembered. I also got the kitchen sink dish. The potatoes were good, eggs were cooked perfectly, and the bisquit was tasty. The sausage was so spiced it was over powering. Overall, not the best experience and I likely won't return now that there are so many other better options. It's sad.

    Smoked Brisket Hash & Eggs
    Amanda S.

    Stopped by Four Friends Kitchen in Denver for a weekday breakfast and had a fantastic experience. I ordered the smoked brisket hash and a black coffee. Simple but seriously satisfying. The brisket was tender and flavorful with just the right amount of smokiness, and the potatoes were perfectly crisp. It's one of those dishes that hits all the right notes: hearty, well-seasoned, and comforting. The atmosphere inside was cozy and inviting, with friendly staff who made the whole experience feel relaxed and easy. I didn't sit on the rooftop but the indoor space was bright and welcoming. Definitely a spot I'd recommend for anyone looking for a great breakfast or brunch in Denver. I'll be back to explore more of the menu!

    It was busy when walked in for breakfast last Wednesday but luckily we were seated right away. The host was nice as she walked us to our table and she then gave us the menus to look over. Not too long after, our server came over. We stuck with waters and we ordered food. I ordered a breakfast plate that had eggs, bacon, potatoes, and toast. I also ordered a side of beignets to share with my table. The food didn't take too long and we dug in. My food lacked a lot of flavor and our server was no where to be found to ask for salsa, salt, and or pepper. I ended up just eating it like that...with no flavor... The beignets were dry and a bit too hard. They were more like powdered donuts... The inside is small and our table was super close to the tables on both sides of us.

    What a place !!! Love it ... We sat in the rooftop ... was such a perfect day to do so .... Everything was very tasty and worth every dollar. The whole place was packed !! So it speaks to how amazing this place is !! The service was just incredible our waitress (the obsessed swifty fan, sorry I forgot your name lol) was just such a delight and overall radiates amazing positive energy ! Love the atmosphere and just how great this place was.

    Shrimp and Grits
    Sarah B.

    This spot is super cute and has overall good food. There's a decent sized dining area, and a bar that you can sit out. The servers were very attentive and friendly. The food came out quickly and warm. The side of bacon collard greens were incredible - highly recommend! The shrimp and grits was just ok. There are lots of veggies in the sauce over the grits, and ultimately watered the grits down. The breakfast burrito was huge! Very filling and delicious. The green chili had just enough spice. There is street parking and a parking lot behind the restaurant.

    Gluten-free pancakes

    Best gluten free pancakes I've tasted! The service and all items we tried were delicious. We ordered and received our food quickly - in and out of the restaurant in less than an hour. Very large portions ensure we'll have leftovers.

    Amazing brunch and lunch menu! So many good things to choose from that it was hard to decide. I had the Smokey Mountain BLT sandwich (veggie version = avocado instead of bacon) with their hashbrowns which were more like smashed whole baby potatoes. They were so crispy and sooo delicious! The bread was fluffy with a nice crust. Overall just a fabulous bite of food. My husband had the Smoked Brisket Hash and Eggs which he really enjoyed. The cornbread was a nice touch! Our server was friendly and the atmosphere was cool. Would certainly go back!

First, wife is a vegetarian and they had no mains other than Mac and cheese for her. She ordered the salad without chicken which was $25. They knocked it down to $22 after I asked why it was the same price without meat, which still seemed like a lot for a salad with no protein. Kids' Mac and cheese was not the same receipe as last time; it was a different noodle and seemed to be needing some salt as it was pretty bland. Unlike our last visit they did not include an ice cream for dessert. My fried chicken and waffles was ok--the breading was a bit soggy though and I much preferred the Nashville hot chicken from my last visit. If I'm being honest this was closer to a 2 star experience, but with how good the last visit was, I'm giving them the benefit of the doubt they maybe tonight they were just off. That said--need one vegetarian entree for the menu.

We first attempted lunch at Rebel Bread's café, but they were out of most sandwiches due to a missed delivery. Leven Supply was our second stop, but they had been seized by the State due to unpaid taxes! Fortunately Lucile's is right across Alameda Avenue from Leven and we found them humming along at their usual pace. We were greeted by Brad, a particularly friendly, personable, and efficient server and soon seated in the comfortable dining room which features just the right number of New Orleans-themed tchotchkes. My girlfriend ordered Eggs Sardou which features creamed spinach, Gulf shrimp, poached eggs, and Hollandaise. She chose the jalapeño cheese grits. I had Eggs Pontchartrain with pan-fried mountain trout, poached eggs, and Béarnaise plus the plain cheese grits. My girlfriend had never been to Lucile's. She was thrilled with her dish. The spinach was particularly creamy and savory. Absolutely delicious. My meal was also excellent. Every item was perfectly prepared. I haven't even mentioned the buttermilk biscuits which are each a meal in themselves and come out at the peak of perfection. Lucile's is one of my favorites.

That said, it's also pretty cramped, and the wait times can be long (sometimes even longer than quoted). One thing we do appreciate is how they've made the waiting experience more comfortable. There's a somewhat hidden upstairs waiting area that's especially nice during those unpredictable winter days, and you can even grab a drink in a tiny room tucked away on the other side of the dining area. It's a thoughtful touch that helps pass the time. The staff are consistently friendly and create a warm and inclusive atmosphere. As for the food - there's a lot to love. The Eggs Sourdou, Pain Perdu, and Bennifer standout. The jalapeño grits are another highlight. On the flip side, the Cajun breakfast with red beans and rice was a bit much- it became overwhelming after a few bites, so I probably wouldn't go that route again. Overall, the food is impressively comparable to what you'd find in New Orleans, which is such a treat to have close to home. With more Creole spots popping up around town, we're excited to explore and compare- but Lucille's has definitely set a high bar. You're in for quite an experience if you order the Sazerac- it's more impressive than any I've had in New Orleans.
