Best vegan Reuben sandwich I've ever had and I've been vegan for over a decade, live in Los Angeles and travel a lot. I had to come back for a second sandwich on my way to the airport. Everything I tried was good but the Reuben was my favorite. read more

We found Gladys after doing research for vegan restaurants during our vacation in Colorado. Gladys had the best rating of any we found. Walking into restaurant, the first thing you notice is how clean it is. That is always a good sign. I ordered the "Greg" burger. It was one of the best I've had. It was so nice not having to ask a lot of questions about the ingredients, everything is vegan! The staff was very friendly and helpful. I will definitely be eating here again! read more

As a meat eater trying to reduce their meat consumption, the Reuben was incredible and blew my expectations out of the water. I also ate it 45 minutes after I picked it up (ran some errands), so I can't imagine how good it is when eaten immediately. Fries were also great and I will definitely be ordering again. read more

Nice space within the Public Market. The rave about their Reuben sandwich was so on point! Amazing how veggies can be prepared so well! I'd recommend the aoli fries to go with it. The gnocchi with seared scallion was just ok. We both agreed a funny sour note at the end. Not my fav but the Reuben is well worth it! A few fancy NA drinks are offered. I picked one with a subtle mint. No room for desserts but the rhubarb cake sounded awesome. read more

Gladys excels in crafting flavorful vegan dishes. On this cold winter evening, I enjoyed the Winter Fricassee. It's a delightful combination of roasted tofu, cashew cream sauce, lentils, cipollini onion, and pickled shallots, offering a delicious blend of intrigue and comfort. The employees have always been so generous with their recommendations. They've never steered me astray. Located inside the bustling Edgewater Marketplace, you'll find Gladys nestled in the far left corner of the food venue. If the central tables are occupied, there are little two tops sprinkled throughout the hallways. Be sure to check out some of the other retail venues when you go! read more

Gladys Restaurant - Winter Fricassee - Vegan Near Me - Edgewater, Colorado

I love Edgewater Public Market. My go-to food stall here is normally Konjo's because Ethiopian is one of my favorite cuisines of all time but I thought I'd try something new this time. Gladys is a plant-based vegan stall that was an unexpected delight. The food is delicious and so flavorful, and I was impressed by the quality of ingredients they use. It's really great value. Vegan food can sometimes be a bit boring, but Gladys feels more creative and unique. I liked the turnip cassoulet okay but I absolutely adored the chocolate mousse! The mousse here slays and I'll have to come back just for that alone. Parking: huge lot since it's Edgewater Public Market Service: kind and friendly and they helped me pick a dish. Ambiance: a casual eatery with lots of seating and great for coming with groups read more

It's okay vegetarian food. Maybe I'm biased but the flavor was too heavy for my liking and the food was not satisfying read more

Heavens to Betsy. Gladys is damn good. Tried the Zucchini Fra Diavolo which was mouthwatering delicious. It does not matter if you are not vegan, because this wonderful establishment will not disappoint. Flavor - check Creativity - check Beautiful presentation - check Delightful service - check Freshly prepared food - check Desserts offered - check It is worth every penny to come here; if you're starved, order two entrees. Try the vegan chocolate chip cookie. Their canned beverages are fabulous. I always have to chuckle when I read reviews that complain about price. How is it that $50 of adult drinks can be justified in one sitting but folks can't seem to muster the $$ to buy top notch quality food prepared with love? You get what you pay for! Gladys is for those that seek a flavor explosion; a memorable, chef-quality food experience. read more

I LOVE GLADYS. Everything is always amazing. Today I had the caesar salad and the corn fritters. Match made in heaven. The savory/salty bits throughout the salad play perfect contrast to the fritters and their peach-calabrian chili dipper. The root vegetable reuben is so good too. Just try it. You won't believe it's vegan. The staff is always super helpful and friendly. I wish they lived in my kitchen. read more

Gladys has been on my list for a while, and when the opportunity to eat here popped up, I jumped at it. I had the "seafood" pasta, which was mostly drowned in oil with a handful of veggies thrown into a plate of pasta. The flavor was wonderful if you can get past all of the oil in the plate! For the price, I expected a bit more, but the dish was still pretty good. The chocolate chip cookie was delicious and I would recommend that a million times over! Overall, the staff was extremely friendly, the location is great and well set up for service, and I would definitely try the food again. read more

Probably my most visited restaurant of all time, I genuinely dedicate 5% of my weekly income to eating here. The kitchen is organized, clean, and visually intentional, the staff is amazing, it never misses. If you haven't eaten a Caesar salad from this restaurant, you haven't lived, 10 out of 10. read more

My favorite restaurant in the Denver area and one of my favorites ever. Have been here a few times and everything I tried had unique flavors and was so delicious. Sunchoke and beets are out of this world! Spicy, crispy, and yummy. Mushroom gnocchi was the best Italian dish I've eaten. Gordo pozole was mildly spicy and refreshing. Garden flatbread was great too. Don't miss this gem! Typically, it's difficult to find parking in the Denver area. But this is in a food court that has a large parking lot, so it wasn't difficult to find parking. Pros: Unique, Flavourful, and delicious, Seating inside a food court, Easy to get parking read more

The cucumber salad is delicious and loaded with protein which is a challenge with vegan options. It has a spicy kick and lots of crunch. The Reuben is my favorite and those cookies are very hard to resist! So glad they are expanding into a larger space. This place is amazing for fresh, healthy and delicious food! The crew is also a joy. read more

Nice spot to grab vegan food that is more "comfort-style" and a bit heartier than the typical salad and smoothie vegan fare. The Reuben sandwich was very satisfying and very unique with the celery root as the meat substitute. The cashier forgot to give me my drink so I did have to mention that when I picked up my food order. I also had the dark chocolate and sea salt cookie which was pretty good- very melty and messy to eat! The market seating inside is pretty loud, but there is also outside seating too which is much quieter. read more

Absolutely the BEST Plant Based/Vegan place in Denver if not The World! A few staples on the menu like their Ruben Sandwich which is a MUST have while new and exciting additions casually make their way that temp you to try. The kitchen staff are absolute masters and the front of the house always makes you feel good. Do not miss this place! read more

Another great meal at Glady's. The food is always so fresh and flavourful. The staff always warm and joyful. We enjoyed the root vegetable Reuben, the mushroom gnocchi, and a chocolate chip cookie. read more

Had the Tofu Piccata $19 for a small portion of overly salted mediocre veggies and tofu. $7 dollars for a soggy chocolate "pie" desert that was just a soggy finger cookie and generic tasting chocolate spread. What a waste. read more

Not a vegan here, but loved it. We had the gnocchi, reuben and tomato funnel cake. All solid, and nice service. Great portions for the price. Would recommend and will be back! Thought the gnocchi was especially good, fwiw. Thanks for a great meal! read more

The beet ruben is THE best sandwich on EARTH. Buy it. Eat it. Repeat. 'Nough said. But 85 characters are requires so here they are.

This place is doing veg food on a really sophisticated level - I got the crispy fried buffalo artichokes and spring sweet pea salad. The artichokes were a little overly zippy in my opinion but still enjoyable. I'd love to try the rest of the menu. This place is a notch above the other spots in edgewater public market read more

From an avid meat eater - the Root Vegetable Rueben is legitimately better than an actual Rueben! There were about 5 minutes of shock and disbelief after my first bite trying to process that what I just ate was vegan - but this sandwich packs in all the salty crunchy rich flavors of a Rueben sandwich, but without the heavy greasy feeling that leaves you disappointed in your food choices read more

Service is always patient and reliable. Just ask and they will happily lead you towards a mouth watering solution to your hunger pains. read more

Gladys Restaurant - Root Vegetable Reuben. It's difficult not to enjoy the warm, tenderness, thick and soft flavors of this sandwich. - Vegan Near Me - Edgewater, Colorado

Never disappoints. I keep going back for the risotto & flat bread. Last time, the charred broccoli was great. Tonight had the artichokes and Reuben. All amazing, great to have a vegan meal that is plant focused and high-end restaurants style and flavors. I like a vegan burger and fries, but so great to have these tasty vegan options. read more

I opted for the flatbread based on the employees recommendation. I would agree the flavor was delicious for a plant based meal but the bread was odd and tasted like it would have been gluten free. The texture just wasn't on par with typical flatbread. Also, the meal cost $20. Not worth the price. read more

A friend recommended the best Ruben on the planet and we we're not let down! The marble rye is toasted to perfection, the sauce is amazing and abundant and the beet pastrami is unbelievable!! I'm obsessed, can't wait to try other items on the menu or only eat that Ruben every time I visit Denver read more

Food is fantastic, love the Rueben! I have actually never been disappointed - had the bread and spread this week. Naan seasoned with fermented dips read more

The root vegetable Reuben sandwich was delicious! So unique and if you served it to me without telling me it was vegetables, I totally would have thought it was meat. It was that good. The fine gentleman who took my order was super friendly and enthusiastic. I love hanging out at Edgewater Public Market. We took our food to the brewery and had a great time. read more

They have the best vegan Reuben sandwich I have ever tried! I drive across town to get one often.

"Gladys" is a vegan restaurant that nourishes the soul. The chefs and culinary team at "Gladys" do more than simply prepare and serve food--they provide exceptional service. Upon approaching the restaurant's welcoming entrance, cozy images of verdant foliage and vivid flora invite you into the space. Greeted by aromas of freshly baked vegan (and gluten-free optional) cookies and toasting breadcrumbs, you may find yourself fighting the urge to run to the counter and order everything that meets the eye. Offering a seasonal menu that dynamically showcases fresh produce and ingredients, "Gladys" creates dishes rich in flavor and steeped in nostalgia. Biting into the Po' Boi was the first proper taste of New Orleans I have experienced since I last visited years ago. The "Greg" Burger with special sauce was so satisfying that my partner forgot they were enjoying a vegan burger! From small bites like the Garlic Bread, Charred Caesar Salad, and Fried Brussel Sprouts to large bites like the Root Vegetable Rueben, Harissa Tofu, and Kabocha Gnocchi, "Gladys" cooks what YOU crave. When my partner and I first moved to Denver, Colorado, we were unsure of where to find fresh, delicious vegan food that was worth enduring traffic. When we found "Gladys," we found our new home, our new space to be with friends, our new 'favorite place.' About a year ago, the chefs offered a vegan chorizo flatbread that tasted so good it was worth fighting over! My partner and I were not raised vegan, but "Gladys" makes being vegan feel nostalgic. "Gladys" captures the tastes that both vegans and non-vegans CRAVE! read more

Mushroom risotto was delicious. A nice sized portion delivered shortly after I ordered. The service was pleasant from the counter employee. As this restaurant is located at the Edgewater market - seating is open for all marketplace visitors. My only issue is a service fee for operational costs which is a bogus fee that has been added by many restaurants for cooking and serving the food customers have paid for... read more

We literally gasped when we opened up the 2 dishes we got. Put these on ceramic plates on a white tablecloth and I'd happily pay twice the price for what is clearly gourmet veggie-forward dining. ++ Cauliflower bisque: hearty, flavorful, creamy, with toppings that added additional texture and intrigue. ++ Reuben sandwich. Wow. This is the most ambitious vegan reuben I've ever had (I've had 2 others in various parts of the US). They shaved celery root super fine and colored and marinated it in a way that made it look and feel like pastrami+sauerkraut. Brilliant. They don't skimp on the heaviness and greasy spooniness of its namesake (think: buttery crispy toast), either. + At a price point that is reasonable for the value. ~ Can take a while to come out, so plan accordingly if you're in a rush! read more

Randomly stumbled upon Gladys and can't believe how amazing it was! We tried their classic dish, the root vegetable reuben, which was crazy good! So flavorful, fresh, and tastes better than a reuben sandwich with meat by far. We also tried a more seasonal dish, the winter fricasse, which was incredible! The cashew cream sauce was so good and the whole dish was so unique overall but a perfect blend. 10/10 overall and will definitely be back to try more! read more

UPDATE 2024: Went by there and their practices remain the same, no gloves and no washing hands after handling money. It is too bad they don't read their reviews or care about their customer's health & safety. read more

I've been here twice now. The first time I was just there for a lunch meeting and I grabbed a Caesar salad . I went back last week and tired the Ruben and the cucumber salad. The cucumber salad and Caesar were very fresh and had good flavor. The Ruben was made with root veggies and was probably one of the best Rubens I have ever had. I would definitely get it again. The other people I went with recommended I try the chocolate chip cookies . So glad I went back and got one before they closed. It was big with big chunks of chocolate but the best part was the flaky sea salt. Just the right amount of salty and sweet. read more

The root-vegetable Reuben is unbelievable. I keep having to check to make sure it is vegan. The team is very friendly and obviously take pride in their work. Definitely a don't skip! read more

I have no idea how this place has only 8 reviews. It only takes one bite of the reuben to know the kind of rare talent you're dealing with at this place. This is fine dining at food truck prices, for vegans. These guys are going places, so take the opportunity while it lasts to get made to order food directly from the chefs themselves. They're going to be running a bigger kitchen sooner rather than later. read more

Do you too dream of handsome dudes cooking you incredible vegan food? Then head on down to Edgewater Public Market where the boys o' Gladys will make those dreams come true! But in earnest: the flavors are bold, presentation is elevated, and the food never disappoints! I've been visiting these gents since they opened and appreciate their dedication to serving satisfying, seasonal, creative dishes, with wholly plant-based ingredients (vs highly processed mock meats and cheeses). Thanks for nourishing me always, yuh dang dreamboats. read more

Gladys is amazing! They make fast casual versions of fine dining dishes where vegetables are the stars. I'm not vegetarian or vegan but I've loved everything I've had at Gladys. The reuben is incredible, their new wedge salad is top notch. It's all so good! read more

This place... I love it so much. I'm a picky picky lady when it comes to food. We run a small farm animal sanctuary so not only do I love animals, the planet and plant based foods but we live in the middle of a rural area so I cook/bake constantly. This place blows my mind with the tastiest food that is plant based. This isn't an impossible burger thrown together. This place makes things I couldn't fathom how to make at home with healthy plants, like that Reuben! Only down side is it is so far from our home in southern Colorado! read more
