I had the prime rib French dip and my husband had the salad with crab on it. Both were very good. If I was going to nitpick the only thing I would say is that the Ajou for the French dip was cold when my mesl arrived. Other than that everything was great

We waited 90 minutes for lunch! And during that time the servers were under lots of pressure and could not tell us when our food would be delivered. Apparently there was a large function and not enough kitchen staff. Disappointing. The food was good, when it was finally served. And we were comped for our inconvenience. I really like this restaurant and will return. Sorry it was such a touch day.

In town for graduation from CU Boulder. Arrived at restaurant and table was ready. Very busy on a Tuesday night and unfortunately they were understaffed. We waited quite a bit for our drinks. Our waitress was very apologetic. She took our order, including an appetizer plus three entrees. We finished drinks while waiting and no one came and asked if we wanted another round. Food finally came all at once and it was cold. Food was delicious!!! But cold…. We ordered another round of drinks when food was dropped and didn’t Get them until we were done eating. Then we sat and waited for check with dirty dishes never being cleared. There were two bus boys working but they never made it to our table and our waitress didn’t clear either. It was a disappointment. It’s a great location in a historical hotel, great ambience! Food was excellent, just cold! Brussel sprout cauliflower appetizer was outstanding, but cold. They just need to work on their staffing! I would try it again.

We’ve been here a few times. The drinks and food are great but it’s always crowded and they always seem to be understaffed. I like the atmosphere and the outside patio. The service could be better but it’s still worth the visit if you’re looking for good food and a fun vibe.

The food was great and the server was great - four stars instead of five because service was a little slow (long wait for water to be refilled or drinks refreshed - had to flag her down) and the noise was really bad. Still, she was very personable, got us whatever we needed as soon as we asked, the food was good and happy hour prices were fair, and we'll be going back.

Our server was fantastic! She was attentive and made us feel so welcome. She advised us that the kitchen was super busy and our food would probably be delayed, so we were prepared to wait a bit. We were there celebrating my mom's birthday and my mom just glowed with the extra attention. Highly recommend!

Great vibes from this place. Food is Ecclectic but not outlandish. Creative and fresh. Servers should have a little better command of the menu. Simple things like are there raisins in the carrot cake. Overall I recommend it highly. Casual.

I understand that many places are understaffed these days, but we waited over 45 minutes for our food. One order was a salad! It seems they have increased their prices quite a bit, as a chicken caesar salad with WATER cost $27 with tip. OUCH. Not sure I will be back anytime soon.
