I ordered the Korean Zoodle Bowl with a tofu add-on. It was a bit sweet, but the mild spice helped to counteract this. The large variety of vegetables in it satisfied my closet vegan. The tofu had a very pleasing crispyness when it first arrived. I told the SO, "Quick, try the tofu!", when she got her bowl. The SO ordered the Summit Stir Fry with a tofu add-on. She enjoyed it, but thought it was a little on the sweet side. I thought it was a lot on sweet side. I made my bowl not seem so sweet after all, which I took as a plus. Overall the food taste and quality was good and the service was friendly. I will base my rating on that. I do have one comment not having to do with the food or service. Stop reading here if you don't care. Pure Kitchen has a 4% "Competitive Wage Compensation" charge. I was surprised to see this charge on the bill and only later saw that it was in the fine print on the menu, with an "opt out" option (what brave soul is going to "opt out" and risk spittle in their food). Maybe it's my fault for not looking at the fine print on menu, but it's a food menu, not a used car contract. Just my personal opinion, but I believe if a restaurant wants to have "fair wages" for their employees, it is their responsibility, not mine. Raise food prices, lower profit margin, whatever, but please don't add another tax. It just doesn't seem right. I have never once complained about high food prices in any of my reviews because it is my choice to go out to eat. I could eat at home if I want to keep within my monthly budget. I have avoided going to other restaurants based solely on this type of "fair wages" charge and will likely not come here again for the same reason (no matter how badly I want to try their Lamb Burger). I am really VERY SORRY for getting on my soapbox. I don't typically rant, but there are certain things that I believe should be addressed. I'm probably not the only person who feels this way.

You make the order at the counter and will get a text when the order is ready. We ordered a half chicken which would have been enough for us in general but the batter was so crispy and well seasoned that we were highly tempted to order a whole chicken just to take home with us to brag to other family. It was sooooo good! I am from South Korea and I know when my chicken is good. Even some Korean chicken franchise in Denver can't do this good. It will come with a sauce for dipping on the side. We chose the bird sauce and was perfect to dip or mix it in with a jasmine rice along with complementary herbs (basil, cilantros, etc) and cucumber salad. Plus their special soft serve of the day made it even more perfect. We had a coconut soft serve ice cream topped with caramel sauce which was very good. Not overwhelming just refreshing as a whole. This will be our place for sure whenever we pass by! Chicken and outer range hazy ipa were perfect match. I loved that they are existing together.

I didn't mind that the service was a little slow since they were getting slammed on a beautiful Saturday morning so I knew it would take a little while to get seated, order, and get food.

I ordered the breakfast burrito grande that has eggs, black beans onions, green peppers and mushrooms and I chose to top it with vegetarian green chili. The dish came with potatoes on the side. I also ordered a single pancake on the side was a nice addition and i was completely full for the rest of the day. I can't wait to return to Butterhorn in the ski season next year.

We sat in the bar area and skipped the cocktails since we were driving home, but I did order a Shirley Temple. Call me crazy, but it was honestly the best Shirley Temple I've ever had. We spent the last part of dinner going back and forth on dessert -- the cookie/ s'mores -- and decided to pass. The second we got in the car, we both regretted it. That just means we'll have to come back soon and do it right next time. Great food, great atmosphere, and a really enjoyable experience all around. Nice job, 5th Ave Grille!

And yes--she IS a legitimate service animal. After standing at the front for a few minutes, the waiter finally approached us with, "Are you looking to sit outside, or are you just looking at the menu, or what?" Well... hello to you too. We asked if we could sit inside if there was availability. That apparently earned us an eye roll. I even offered to show documentation for my service dog, and his response was basically, "I'll get the owner and you can talk to him." At that point, the vibe had gone from "not very welcoming" to "we clearly don't want you people in here." I can't know what was going through his head, but the way he looked at us, spoke to us, and reacted to a simple request came across as genuinely prejudiced and discriminatory--not just rude customer service. Maybe we didn't fit the preferred 5th Avenue Grille aesthetic after eight hours on the road. Sorry, I forgot to pack my dinner blazer in the camper van. We decided to leave rather than spend money somewhere that made us feel unwelcome before we even sat down. Food might be great. We'll never know. Hospitality, however, was definitely not on tonight's menu. Would not recommend.

It was quiet Monday morning in Frisco, and I asked if our party of four adults could sit at a table…read morethat seated five rather than the very small tables that had four chairs around them. The hostess said no, that she had to reserve that table in case a party of seven came in. We were seated at one of the very tiny tables and it felt uncomfortable-it was clear that once our plates arrived we would need to move all the condiments from the middle of the table, and even then it would be a tight squeeze.Eventually, the round top next to us that seats five opened and we asked if we could move to that one. The hostess turned to our waitress and asked if it was OK with her if we moved. The waitress hesitated. She looked from us to the other table and back again, and then she said, "We don't usually let people move tables after they've placed their order." I want to emphasize that the restaurant was half full, and there were no people waiting to be seated. The waitress finally said, "Well, OK." It was so much more comfortable at the larger table, but that whole, strangely uncomfortable exchange threw a pall over the meal. Clearly customer service is not their concern. In the two days prior we had eaten breakfast at the Butterhorn across the street, and The Little Diner in Vail, both of which were welcoming, friendly, and accommodating, so the contrast was glaring. I ordered the Summer Corn Scramble, and it was delicious, although the accompanying hash browns tasted like they were from a frozen package, and the English muffin was not the best quality. The door handles as we entered the restaurant were grimy and I should have taken that as a cue to eat elsewhere. I will not return.

One guy appeared to be doing everything and after he seated us outside, we barely saw him again. The "spicy" margarita came with what I thought were jalapeños, but after trying one I'm pretty sure they were bell peppers because there wasn't a hint of spice. And that makes me laugh at the idea. My fiancé's margarita was incredibly sweet too. The food was okay. Sweet potato fries, forgotten ranch, and a smash burger that was just kind of there. Several tables around us stayed dirty the whole time too. Nothing was awful, but nothing was particularly good either. Pretty forgettable overall.

We were tired, hungry, and fully in "just feed us something good and don't make it weird" mode. Ollie's delivered exactly that--and then some. From the second we walked in, it was just... easy. No attitude, no awkward energy, no interrogation about whether we really deserved a table. Just a warm welcome and a "we've got you" kind of vibe. The staff? Excellent. Like, actually happy to be there and even happier to help. The food? Excellent. The kind of comfort food that makes you forget you were ever considering a fancy 3-course meal somewhere else. The drinks? Great. No notes. They knew what they were doing. And the service? Fast, friendly, and down-to-earth. The kind of place where you don't feel like you need to dress up, impress anyone, or decode a secret menu handshake. I walked in thinking I wanted a "nice" dinner from 5th Avenue Grille... and left realizing I actually just wanted Ollie's all along. Sometimes the best meals aren't the fancy ones--they're the ones where you feel welcome the second you sit down. Highly recommend Ollie's Pub & Grub. We'll definitely be back.
