Noon is a busy time and you should always make a reservation here…read more We came with a work group. Many for the first time. We were seated right at our reservation time and our attendant was friendly but all business. Food came quickly and tasted great. This is a great sport for breakfast or brunch. Boozy brunch options exist and seasonal options abound. Lots of people had biscuits and gravy, also we had the basic breakfast and the Ole and the veggie omelet. Everything came out warm and tasty and plates were licked clean. I'd come back here any time I'm in the area.

We had the MIGAS and the Steak-and-egg fried rice with coffees. AWESOME!!! I would eat the wagyu steak n eggs everyday! Service is fast and efficient. They had people in and out in no time. Food came fast and hot and they didn't miss a step. Coffee cup was full the entire time and they turned tables like their life depended on it. At 11am on Sunday morning we showed up to 10 people waiting, within 5-7 minutes we were all seated. There was a constant flow of customers and you know this place is a local gem. Out the door for $52 for a quality meal that included steak and bottomless coffee felt amazing given the economics of the day. Indoor and outdoor seating. Tables from 1 to 8 and lots of 2 and 4 tops. Hidden away in an industrial park, forget Snooze, come here. You won't regret it.

3 stars given only because of bad experience with our server…read more Lucile's is a local staple! The food is tasty and filling, and its longstanding history in town speaks for itself. It has been years since I've eaten here, and since we had friends in town, we decided to stop by. We found free and easy street parking nearby, and after a 20 minute wait, we were seated in the front sun-porch area. We ordered beignets to start (comes with 4 per order), a latte, 2 eggs Benedict, and 2 po' boys. We also got 2 cups of gumbo. Everything was delicious, and we loved the biscuits that came with the gumbo cups! The issue was that we asked for one of the po' boys to come without mayo, and our server did not hear that request. Now, it's totally fine and understandable to make a mistake, not hear something, or even forget. However, what was particularly strange and frankly inappropriate was that when the food came and we gently pointed out that we had asked for no mayo on one of the po' boys, our server got upset with us and said "no, you actually did not say that." We thought she was joking or trying to be funny, so we uncomfortably looked around and gently told her we had asked, and all of us remember the request being made. She then rolled her eyes, laughed under her breath, and then smiled sweetly and said "alright, we're going to have to remake one po' boy, no mayo." The name of our server that was on our receipt said Nicole, and they had a large tattoo of what looked to be a pinecone on their right forearm. For the rest of our dining experience, our server made really uncomfortable remarks regarding the po' boy (ex. "Is this po' boy better for you?") to the point where it really soured our experience. I can understand having a bad day or being overwhelmed in the middle of a busy shift, but being rude to someone is truly never acceptable. Whether you didn't hear a request being made, forgot about it, or even if it was a last-minute request, being in a customer-facing role means trying to accommodate those requests to the best of your ability, NOT being mean. Other diners also noticed this and told us they had heard us specifically ask for no mayo, which was validating to hear. Really not sure if we will ever go back, which is a shame because the food is tasty.

We came for a weekend brunch around 11 am and got seated immediately, but by the time we finished our meal, the restaurant was completely packed and it looked like there was a bit of a wait outside. I started off with their peach oolong team and love that all their teas come served in a pot. My husband and I split the Palatschinken, which are Austrian crepes stuffed with sweetened cheese and topped with an apricot cherry chutney and candied walnuts. Reminded me of a fancy blintz and I'm here for it! It was on their small plates menu so came with two small pieces, which was perfect size for us to wet our appetites. For my main course, I got the Lapsang Souchong Benedict. The tea flavor throughout the dish was light, almost an aromatic note. My husband went with the classic two eggs, potatoes and a biscuit. All done very well and tasty! The building itself is gorgeous. It's a gift from Boulder's sister city in Tajikistan, and the entire structure was handcrafted by Tajik artisans before being shipped over. The ornate decor inside with hand-carved pillars and ceiling paintings is just breathtaking. You'll feel as if you've been transported straight to Dushanbe. I also loved the variety of their menu that features dishes along the Silk Road spanning from Central Asian to South East Asian. Definitely a memorable stop and lives up to the hype. Highly recommend to check this out, but come earlier to beat the crowd.
