    A perfect brunch spot with even better people! From the moment we walked in , we were greeted with warm smiles and genuine hospitality. Hostess was very nice, we wanted to seat close by music and she provided us a very nice table. The service and food are top-notch. What really elevated the entire experience was our server, Dawa was kind , professional and incredibly attentive. If you are looking for a delicious brunch with impeccable service, look no further than ELLYNGTON’s !

    The service and food here are top-notch. Live music with brunch is a great way to start Sunday. It's a great place to take a first date or a group.

    What an unfortunate experience. I haven’t been to the Brown Palace in many years and was looking forward to having brunch on my brief visit. The food, the service the attitude was not good at all. The “famous eggs Benedict“ had sauce that came from a jar. Was not hot and it was not Canadian bacon it was a slice of thin ham that you could have picked up at the grocery store. The fruit salad had pithy, apples, and pears. The grapefruit juice came from a box was not fresh. I ordered a glass of champagne and was never offered a second glass. The air-conditioning was not working and it was incredibly hot. When we commented to the staff their response was “yeah it is hot”

    Great breakfast in Denver. Excellent service. Would be 5* but hostess double sat our waiter with another 16 person party, so it was impossible to cover his other tables. He did as well as can be expected.

    Table was in a back corner by a loud bussing station. Air conditioning wasn’t working very well so very warm. Service was excellent; food was good but price was expensive.

    Our party of five thoroughly enjoyed our leisurely breakfast at Ellyngton’s. The menu provided a pleasant variety of options—from fruit and yogurt (a very healthy serving of fruit) to a breakfast burrito. The food was nicely prepared and nicely presented. Our server was very pleasant, helpful, and attentive without being intrusive. A particular delight, for me, is that the restaurant responded extremely well to our special request for our seating.
