It took quite a long time for the food to come out (over 30 minutes)--I had to remind a server about my order despite the place not being even half full. When the food did come out, I wane too impressed with the portion--even the extras I added (plant-based chicken and roasted veggies) didn't help much. Flavour-wise, the bowl was decent, but the tofu was too sweet (yes, I know, it's an orange sauce, but still). I appreciate all the vegan options, but this experience--the service, the food, the portion--left me wanting.

"It has MUSHROOM GRAVY what could be better?!"…read more Well sir, I'll take your word for it. And although it's over one hundred degrees outside I'll order one Loko Moko to enjoy in pleasant Civic Center park on this Tuesday afternoon. Never having been to Civic Center EATS before I did not know to expect a food stand heaven! I warned my dining partner beforehand that I would have to peruse each one and weigh my options before settling on a meal. While a light sandwich sounded a little more appropriate on this hot summer's day, we ended up devouring Steamin' Demon. We weren't quite sure what to expect but decided to be adventurous! What we got was a bowl filled with white rice, a quinoa and pinto bean patty, guacamole, sriacha, a fried egg, and yes... gravy. Thank goodness we split this because I was so full after eating my half. Their other sandwiches looked tasty and I would probably opt for that next time but this protein-packed meal was just what I needed to power me through the rest of the day! I loved the creative vegetarian-friendly combos being served up by this friendly staff and this food stand can be found all over town depending on the day of the week! I'd definitely check it out if it's ever near you!

Okay, okay, I'm fully aware that it's actually a Hawaiian plate lunch dish....not something that I would ever conceive of. But could a veggie version seriously get more perfect? I can't stop thinking about it or about how I can get some more. I finally got to check this place out at the Justice League for Street Food party over by the Metro apartments. I had the idea of it in my head all day the day before (I was hungover, it happens) and was first in line when the carts started serving food. It was more than I hoped. Every bite was amazing. They take a bowl, put in a scoop of sticky rice, a perfectly crispy on the outside pinto bean/quinoa patty, a generous amount of their delicious gravy, an overeasy (and perfectly runny) fried egg, a dollop of guac, and hot chile paste to your prefence. It reminds me of something I'd do at home only they get every element down perfectly (sometimes my veggie gravy is too sweet...theirs is not....as I mentioned before, they are geniuses). The chile paste provided just enough burn when incorporated into every bite and I ate way too much before I knew it. Since then, I've managed to commit their daily schedule to memory so I can figure out where to stalk them next. I'd like to try the bahn mi someday, I really would....but I can't stop thinking about the Loco Moco.

As travelers who just rolled into town looking for a late-night bite at 9:00 PM, we were really…read morehoping for a better introduction to Denver's food scene. Unfortunately, this missed the mark across the board. The issues started at the door: we weren't greeted by the two hosts until we spoke up first. When we asked about late-night happy hour, we were pointed toward the left, leading us to assume we could sit at the high tops in the bar area. We were later chastised by our server for not "checking in properly," even though we did--and nobody bothered to mention that the happy hour is restricted strictly to the bar top. Service continued to slide from there. My husband's fries arrived warm at best, and when we tried to flag down our server using the table indicator light, he never showed. After waiting over five minutes, my husband approached the bartender, who passed the buck and told us to find our server. My husband told him he had tried and indicated to the light. Thankfully, another server stepped in, brought fresh fries, and was wonderfully kind. He was easily the best part of the night. As for the food, the grilled cheese and tomato bisque were thoroughly mediocre, but we ate out of pure exhaustion. Coming from industry backgrounds ourselves, we are extremely patient, read the room when places are slammed, and always tip well for basic competence. This wasn't a case of being busy; it was a breakdown in communication and hospitality from the hosts, server, and bartender. Save your late-night appetite and wait for breakfast tomorrow instead.

I'm a loyal being and if you become my friend, you're stuck with me, and if you become my favorite food, I will follow you all my life. Such is Ba-NOM-a-NOM, the vegan food truck out of Denver. For the past few years since I've lived in Fort Collins, I've attended many a food truck rally in City Park where this truck has been a staple. With COVID-19 going on now, the food truck rally has stuck around, but with a few changes. They now feature four different food trucks four nights a week on a rotational schedule. I read that Ba-NOM-a-NOM was out this past week and had to go satisfy my craving. I ordered the original (frozen banana turned into a smooth ice cream-like consistency) and added warm peanut butter and vegan chocolate chips. This is a completely guilt-free treat, albeit a little pricey and slightly guilty for my wallet, but I'm more than happy to support the small businesses that I know and love during this tough time. They offer a multitude of other flavors like watermelon, mango, strawberry banana and possibly others, but again, I've found what I love and stick with what works. You can find out their next location via their website as they travel across the Front Range whipping up this delicious, magic, guilt-free dessert while keeping masks on, gloves on, and social distancing enforced.

I didn't intentionally find this coffee shop; I literally stumbled into it one day. As in, I…read morestumbled into their sign as I was walking by and discovered it tucked away just inside the entrance of the Alliance Center, close by the Union Station. It turned out to be a great find! This is one of the very few places downtown that I know of that serves Pablo's Coffee, which is what piqued my interest since I am a big fan of their light roast. The menu items are standard for most coffee shops: au lait, cappuccino, the works. I chose the au lait in the light roast with extra foam. Creamy and light without any bitterness, which is exactly my version of a great cup of joe. You know they definitely brew their coffee well here when you don't need to add any sugar for it to taste good.They also have some tasty pastries that go well with their drinks; I chose the pineapple coconut bread that was the perfect touch of sweetness to my unsweetened coffee. The people are nice and are accommodating to your preferences, which was very welcoming as a first time customer! I'll be coming back, intentionally this time, in the future.

The coffee is nothing special and the service is cordial but nothing above and beyond. They were out of Bagels (what?!) and their breakfast burrito is fairly no frills. It's small, fits in the palm of your hand, and served luke warm. The tortilla was a bit soggy from sitting around for a while. The avocado toast is good so I recommend that for a small bite. Overall, Serendipity is a cute spot but it's not going to become my "go-to" when I'm in the area.
