We visited from out of state and loved our experience. We got the Seitan Cubano, with sides of Papaya Salad and Southwest Cornbread. We weren't too hungry, otherwise we would have ordered more. I got the Under and Over cocktail, which was more savory than sweet. The Cubano was good, though I wish it was a little more substantial. The salad tasted like sauerkraut. The cornbread was spicy which I wasn't expecting, but it was light and airy which I've never experienced before. My wife loved it. The ambience was really nice for a cozy time, but a little too dark to read.

Would go again without a doubt. Loved the ambiance/decor immediately. Cocktail was awesome. We had a big group and tried several appetizers, with the biggest hits being the waffle fries (I would say those are a must) and the cauliflower wings. I got the buss up shut for my entree and it was a little more rustic and less of a wow factor with flavor than the appetizers but I did enjoy it and the portion was huge. I'm not vegan but nothing felt like it was missing for me, great meal.

Damn good food!!! Do not hesitate, you will not be disappointed ✨️ 😊 I ordered the coconut bread and it was delightful. The rice and beans was delicious, and the coleslaw was phenomenal.

This place is so underrated. Amazing atmosphere. I love how colorful the decor is. Really good food and happy hour deals. By far my fave drinks in Denver. I’ve lived here for 7 years and I always come back for their tropical drinks. Can’t beat sitting outside and drinking a delicious pina colada.

Had a drink and meal at the bar. Wish I could give more than 5 stars for atmosphere. Everything on the menu was creative and sounded amazing. My meal, the buss up shut, was so flavorful and filling. Found this place on Happy Cow and so glad. 15 minute easy walk from 11th Avenue hostel.
