Super cozy place, especially at night. For cocktails, this is as good as a speakeasy when you want the bartenders to make interesting drinks. I always want to be surprised and always am with the amazing cocktail creations! As for food, I recommend the French Dip but get the gluten free bread. The roll is better than the regular one. Hope you have as much fun as I do here!

Visiting from the east coast, my husband and I are both gluten free and love Indian food. The menu clearly states vegan, gluten free, etc. We tried the Spice Room based on reviews online. Our waitress, Sabi, was PHENOMENAL!! The food was nothing short of amazing. Sabi made excellent recommendations and ensured gluten free appetizers, entrees, and desserts. We HIGHLY recommend!!

I went there about a year ago. Very small kitchen and do not recommend for people with celiac. I was sick all day after eating the questionable gluten free waffles.

I had some time to spare after an appointment and wandered to Tennyson Street, near where I used to live a few years ago. I was looking for a breakfast spot to relax before heading back to south Denver and located Cozy Cottage. Wow! The service was excellent, the decor is very cozy as the name implies, and the food was sublime! I appreciated that they have gluten-free options, which is difficult, especially when you want Eggs Benedict. The chef is fantastic and the creation with the addition of brie cheese into the hollandaise sauce was something else! I will definitely come back! Give this place a try you will be delighted.

Food was good. Service was consciously slow. Server declined to take our order when we said we were ready to order, citing not wanting to overwhelm the kitchen. Upon getting out food we wanted to confirm it was gluten free, the server took several minutes to confirm to safety of the food. We had to rely on another customer to get the server's attention. Food was good but not worth the service.Overall, felt like our business wasn't valued.

We tried dining here on Saturday night, but came to find out when we were seated that there's like a half page manifesto about not handling any allergies (not dietary preferences - actual anaphylactic shock inducing allergies). Their menu explicitly states "do not eat here, it's not worth the risk." Well, you don't have to tell us twice! We found food elsewhere. As an aside, pretty much every other restaurant in Denver can handle this kind of request with modest hygienic kitchen practices. Some restaurants are excellent and proactive about it. Even some cocktail bars ask about allergies now! But hey, that's your choice I guess. So, we decided to leave a mostly-positive (4-star) review to let other allergy-havers know not to come here. After all, they're very clear about not wanting you to eat here! We thought we'd spread the word while not impacting their Google rating too much. For daring to leave a review with 4 stars, about a policy on their menu that they wrote, the owners decided to respond with an absolute tantrum. Check the other reviews - we're definitely not the first people to enrage these psychos. You did an excellent job of making an enemy out of people who would otherwise at least stop in for a glass of wine or a cocktail. So, enjoy your multiple 1 star reviews from everyone in our party, instead of the single 4-star review you would have gotten. You really earned it! Do not give these people your money. --- Edit: Again, see the completely normal response from the owner 😂. I don't have a gluten allergy - someone in our party has a tree nut allergy. And again, that's fine, we can eat elsewhere. We appreciated the warning on the menu. We just wanted to leave a review letting other allergy-havers to also dine elsewhere. That's what you want, right?

Very good wings. High quality so yes, not as large as the industrial farms. Great flavor. I ordered 12 wings and a small fry and it was actually too much food for me (although I got to try two sauce flavors). They also carry gluten free beer

New favorite breakfast spot! Have lived nearby and just never went in - now I will go often! They have a great selection of food and drinks. Honestly the best chai I’ve had in a while. I’d go back just for that! Delicious breakfast and decent gluten free toast, which is always nice to find. The scramble was delicious. They had lactose free milks to choose from as well. Highly recommend this spot!

Overall negative experience. Guy at the register was super unfriendly. There were 5 people behind the counter and literally no other customers in the store. And it still took them 15 minutes to make my sandwich because they were just chatting the whole time. When they were done, the woman literally yelled my name (probably from habit) even though I was sitting right next to the counter and was the only person in the store. I used to love going there because they've always had decent gluten free bread but this was awful. Crumbly and dry. And the rotisserie chicken and Swiss was literally flavorless. Think over refrigerated leftover turkey with nothing on it.

Gluten free people: this is your Ramen spot. The spicy mushroom is not Indian medium so if you like a little spice it is good and they can make it hotter if you want more spicy. Almost everything on the menu can be made gluten free and for 2 people with 3 drinks, the bill was 70 bucks. So much cheaper than most gluten free meals out. Allergy people: they are amazing at food allergies. My partner is allergic to eggs. They traded out the egg noodles for the gluten free noodles as they were egg free! Everyone else: if you dont love good, reasonably priced food and good wine and mixed drinks, this isn't for you. But the other 99% will adore this place and its amazing patio!

We will start with food. The bacon was stellar. Got a bacon flight it was delicious. We went here because we read a review that said it was the best gluten free pancake someone had ever had, and that the gluten free options were great. They weren’t and it wasn’t. The pancake was hands down the worst GF pancake I have ever had. It was super dense, pretty sure it had cornmeal in it and it was heavy. They also cross contaminate their fryer. So make sure you don’t get anything fried here. My eggs were overcooked and dry. Service was wonderful, they were just super busy. Our guy was awesome, really nice. And friendly. But I never got a refill on my coffee. Which would have been nice. Hostesses were friendly and full of smiles. Service overall was a highlight. Atmosphere was nice but it was so LOUD. We had to speak with our voices raised pretty much the whole time.

I tried to order a vegan pizza, but couldn't stomach the price it was ringing up and had to leave the restaurant hungry. there is a significant upcharge for a vegan crust, and an additional significant upcharge for vegan cheese. a simple crust, sauce, cheese vegan pizza was ringing up close to $23 before any toppings were added. Each added topping would have been $1-$2 extra. Getting near $30 for a single personal vegan pizza before tax and tip is ridiculous. Do not come here if you are seeking out gluten free or vegan pizza, it's not worth it.

This is a great little place! They have a small patio, and ample tables inside. I was there on a quiet Sunday afternoon, and it wasn't crowded at all. The jalapeno poppers were SPICY, and the sandwiches were tasty. They had a large beer selection, and we found some fun ones to try in the flight. They even had a few GF beer options which made my sister (who has celiac) quite excited!

Very quaint, cute spot that takes reservations! Amazing food with solid gluten/ grain free options (can sub zoodles or spaghetti squash for pasta - hefty portion!). I had the Bolognese. I think it’s important to remember that our restaurants are having hard times right now! Yes, we did have a little confusion with the staff and our reservation but it got sorted out. The staff was genuine and cared. If you’re in a hurry, go elsewhere! We are grateful we can go out to eat and support a local place.

I am quite shocked at the positive reviews. The ciders were simply not good. They were watery and had a vinegary quality that I did not enjoy. I tried a flight of all the ciders and found them all to be this way. The addition of cherry made for the best tasting one that I had. I didn’t try all the other versions with other flavors but given the weakness of the base I could see trying to add other flavors to make it better. All the positive reviews make me wonder if they had a bad batch and poor quality control. The atmosphere seemed set up for the staff not the customers even though my friend was having a birthday party. They were playing loud grating music though they were willing to turn it down when asked. The customer service seemed like they were doing us a favor by serving us. The chairs were very uncomfortable for any length of time. The food was pretty good but the potato pancake was overcooked and it took about 35 minutes though it did not seem that busy. I’d prefer not to have to walk out to a food truck and then carry in my food on a paper plate. I wanted to love this place as I enjoy cider and can’t drink beer due to gluten sensitivity. But it was simply not an enjoyable experience.

It's in a little restaurant type stripmall in a gentrified neighborhood in NW Denver. It's pretty unassuming when you walk in. However, the food, the server, and the owner were all just fantastic. My wife absolutely loves Indian food and we've been to several in the Denver metro area as well as some around the county and this was the best food we've ever had. My wife loves the leftovers so we always get 3 entrees. Her go-to's are always butter chicken and chicken korma. They were as good as any we've ever had. The vegie pakora appetizer was crispy, not at all greasy and just wonderful. My entree was lamb Rogan Josh (which I'd never had before) and it was outstanding! All our items were gluten free and they have a lot of options to choose from. We will go back.

This restaurant is set slightly off the street, so not obvious if you aren’t looking for it. That being said, it’s worth looking for. The food was well balanced and delicious, fish was fresh and there is a really large selection of items on the menu. In addition to sushi, they also serve ramen, curry bowls, and dishes for those who don’t like fish or need gluten free options.
