French dip and fries

My daughter and I came here at 7PM on a Friday after a school event. My daughter had the cheeseburger, which was as cooked perfectly. I had the hot beef sandwich, which you can't find many places in the Denver area. My food was delicious. I had wine, my daughter had iced tea. The service was great, very attentive. We love Rory's.

Best.Cheese.Curds.Ever. Such an adorable and cozy diner with amazing service! The buttermilk chicken sandwich is TO DIE FOR!! The burger is ok but the bun was too soggy.

Plenty of street parking and there's a lot in the back. We showed up around the morning time. And the ere was a line outside the door. We ended up sitting at the bar since t ere was room. We've been here a handful of times and this was busiest I've seen. Even after being seated there was a line so we came at peak time. Last time I ordered the breakfast potatoes comes with eggs and bacon and a side of sour cream. It was pretty starchy but edible. They also don't have milk alternatives so I won't order coffee here. I noticed at the bar they do have a few alcohol options . Although I didn't have a drink this time. The bar seemed clean a few glasses sitting out but all and all clean. The wait wasn't too bad to sit and we didn't feel rushed to leave. So if you have a small party I suggest sitting at the bar.

Now a favorite place! It's great to eat outside in temperate days (of which we've had many). Food consistently good, and service always friendly. I much prefer Rory's to nearby fast casual chains.

After walking out of a different restaurant for terrible service, we walked into Rory's where we looked at each other and asked why we didn't just come here in the first place. The staff is so attentive and friendly, we love the atmosphere and the food is fresh, delicious, and service is speedy.

This was my first visit here on a very cold morning, really cool 1950's ambiance with the classic diner 'look' on the inside. I had the breakfast chili rellano with scrambled eggs, refried beans, and baked potato slices. The guy next to me was having biscuits and gravy and those biscuits looked like pure heaven so I know what I'm getting next time !!

Fast Friendly Fresh made to order food. They actually prepare and cook at Rory's and not reheat food from a bag. I love the biscuits and gravy all day all of the time.

Great service but Very disappointed with the corned beef hash. Expected home made but looked and tasted like it's out of a can.

Do they serve Mimisas?

Yes! We even have mimosa flights!

So many rave reviews on blueberry lemon French toast; why no longer on menu?

Yes. They have a website that lists several items that are gluten-free.

I wasn't sure what to expect going in, especially after seeing a few one-star reviews, but after…read moreeating here I can confidently say this place deserves way more love. The food was delicious, service was quick and friendly, and you can tell the staff cares about what they're doing -- something that's hard to find in the restaurant industry. Some of the negative reviews feel like they come from people who don't understand how busy breakfast/brunch spots operate. This is a lovely, casual spot with great flavor and a welcoming vibe. I'd definitely come back and recommend it to friends looking for a tasty breakfast or lunch.

An Inexperienced host and non-empathetic staff can hurt your business:…read moreMy wife and I finally had all 4 of our kids home together this weekend and we were excited to catch up over Sunday breakfast at one of our favorite restaurants. Seeing Zero on the App wait list, we arrived at 9:30am, with just a few people in the lobby area, we thought we'll be stared soon. They asked us to wait for a table to be ready. Over the next 1/2 hr, the lobby stared to fill up and we watched tables of 2 and 3 go right past us, one after another. By 10:20am, we were standing next to a few newly arrived parties of 5 and 6. Hungry and frustrated, we asked if they could push 2, tables together to seat us, we were promptly told No. But they can separate us. By 10:30, we were hopeful, but a bit 'hangry', then they seated a table of 5 that entered around 10:10... we walked out after an hour of waiting. My wife was upset and crying in the car. We decided to go home to make breakfast. Before the kids leave the next day, we'd try again at a different restaurant. The food and service have always been great here! I can understand having new, inexperienced staff at a busy restaurant can be challenging, but unfortunately, this experience will leave a bad taste for a while.

(ours was less than 10 minutes) It's worth the wait!! Heritage Cafe has a large menu with a variety of options to choose from. They have boozy brunch cocktails as well if you are so inclined- I was and ordered a Bloody Maria. This was delicious as was the strip of bacon that came with the drink. Yum! We also gave their cinnamon roll a shot, and were very pleased with the gooey, deliciousness of this baked good! I tried the chilaquiles for my main entree and was pleasantly impressed. I did order my eggs sunny side up, and well, they tried but they came out a little over cooked-no biggie though. Our server was very nice and kept tabs on us frequently throughout our meal- this was very much appreciated!

I haven't been to Waffle House in ages and was craving a good breakfast. The Parker location is…read moreclean, employees friendly and food very good for the price. This is Waffle House so it is not the same as Original Pancake House or other more expensive breakfast places. I paid $20 before tip for a full meal with coffee and that's fantastic especially with the rising cost of everything including food. The coffee is good not amazing. It gets the job done and my server topped it off several times during my meal. I tried the all star special which comes with two eggs cooked to order, hashbrowns or grits, breakfast meat and toast. I asked for over medium eggs and they were cooked perfectly with plenty of runny yolk. I asked for bacon crispy and it was with 3 pieces to the order. I had sourdough toast. On the hashbrowns I ordered all the way which is all the optional toppings. It's a lot. I liked the mushrooms, onions, hickory smoked ham, diced and grilled tomatoes, and sausage gravy. I could probably have left off the melted cheese and jalapenos. For next time I know. But wait there's also the waffle which I got with chocolate chips and they were very generous with the chocolate chips. If you're looking for hearty diner food check out Waffle House in Parker. I'll definitely be back.

We were acknowledged when we entered and chose to sit at the counter. Despite being the only guests seated there, no staff member approached us at any point during the twenty minutes we waited. During this time, employees seated and served other customers, yet we remained completely unattended. It was clear we were visible, and the lack of service was both disappointing and unacceptable. After waiting without any acknowledgment or assistance, we chose to leave. This experience reflected poorly on the customer service at this location, and unfortunately, it has discouraged us from returning.
