Denver Westword: It is worth trying one of the out of the box margaritas such as the "Mercado" which blends serrano-infused tequila with passion fruit puree, citrus and a hibiscus rosemary foam.
Joshua Allan: Pepper infused Tequila is incredible, the chile Morita salsa is one of a kind, ask for the "agavero margarita" (casa nobles resposado, agavero liquor, citrus).enchiladas on the house if you CHECK IN.
Rachel K: Happy hour in the bar area gets you $5 margaritas, add a dollar for one of their house infused tequilas like sage pineapple or citrus lemongrass.

Carrie Nenonen: Holy cow- oh SO good! Lamb sliders, citrus salad, pork tenderloin, rack of lamb at our table & all amazing. Save room for dessert tho. Chocolate bomb and Banana Creme Brûlée pie are a must to share!
Greg L: Lamb sliders and sweet potato fries with mint yogurt sauce were ridiculously delicious
Denver Westword: Order the bottomless blood orange mimosas off the brunch menu! Read more.
Megan Renee: One of the best breweries in Denver. Try the Blood Orange IRA for a jam-packed, citrus IPA...or mellow it out with a very light-bodied Porter.
James Kormanik: Super friendly staff happy to talk about their craftbeer. Great atmosphere and solid beers.
Denver Off The Wagon: Don't be confused, all of their beers are red and their shirts are black. Try the BSB Red Ale that started it all!

A M: Udon noodles were tasty. The double burnt tacos were good, but small and imo not worth the price. The citrus salad was also interesting, but didn’t stick out as special.
shelley pierce: tempeh buffalo wings and cold noodle salad are both fantastic
