Holden was excellent and very attentive. He had great knowledge about the desserts and what was gluten and dairy free. Wonderful experience.

Overpriced and disappointing. I ordered the baked al forno, which was described as having a bechamel sauce to it, but was dry as a bone minus what seemed like some sort of consomme drizzled around it. Without a sauce to carry any flavor, it also tasted quite bland. For some reason, they also didn't provide a sharper knife to cut through the pasta, so I had to saw through it with a butter knife. I feel like they may have given me some dairy free version because my partner couldn't have dairy, so I don't know if the service was bad or the food. My partner ordered a ragu with gluten free fusili, which seemed like it came out of a box. Which is fine, but don't charge home made pasta prices for it? If it was home made, it was severely undercooked, so my guess is that the kitchen didn't know gf pasta takes longer to cook. We also asked for cheese on the side and instead didn't receive any cheese until we had to ask for it. We were excited to come here, but I've had better Italian meals at Olive Garden.

Had dinner here not too long ago & made sure that there were items on the menu that were gluten free as my girlfriend has Celiac Disease. When we were sat, my girlfriend asked what items are gluten free (to be 100% safe) and he said "just tell me what you want and I'll see." then she asked if he's our waiter or someone else and he said "we all help each other". Ok. Then the wine list arrives and my gf then had to ask the gal helping us with wine what is gluten friendly on the menu. She was SUPER helpful. Clearly the gal that helped my gf with wine confronted 'our waiter' because for the rest of the night, he was overcompensating and being awkwardly talkative. We just wanted our food at that point. Then on top of all of those awkward interactions with our waiter.... he charged us for an extra bottle of wine we didn't drink. I then had to flag down a member of the staff to initiate a return/bill again while our Uber was out front waiting for this. Spent $500 on dinner which was great BUT the experience with the waiter ruined it. Cherry Creek Grill is the better choice, their staff is ON POINT.

Great place for breakfast after getting off the train from Denver airport. Also appreciated the gluten free options for pancakes and bread.

I had a pretty good burger but they did not have gluten free buns, which is odd for a craft burger joint. The fries were good but a little salty. The service was ok. The bar drinks were good.

Gluten free options galore and (or at least my server) was very familiar with celiac disease and the limitations it can cause. Very good food and fast. Attentive without being overbearing and generally an excellent experience.

Amy Conte

Our second time back! We had a wonderful meal. Our server Mia was a gem! Love that they had lots of gluten free and vegan options.

“Visited Pig and Sprout with my family and we were blown away by the incredible balance they’ve struck catering to various dietary needs without compromising on quality. Whether you’re vegan, vegetarian, gluten-free, or a meat-lover, there’s something here for everyone. The ingredients were fresh, the dishes innovative, and each plate was a delightful surprise. From the attentive service to the cozy ambiance, our dining experience was nothing short of exceptional. Pig and Sprout is a gem that truly understands the importance of inclusivity in dining. Can’t recommend it enough!”

Besides all the amazing food, these people have gluten free cookies which is basically how I survive my office life

Extremely disappointed in their brunch menu for those with allergies of any kind! Not quite sure why they can't have a gluten-free piece of toast or gluten-free English muffin available for avocado toast. These are easy to keep in the freezer until someone orders them. The potatoes, that come with the Omelette, are not gluten-free as they do them in a fryer. Again, I don't understand why they can't just pan fry them pretty easily instead of cross-contamination. Plus they use flour in their hollandaise sauce. They only have a gluten-free bun for hamburgers and I was only offered a salad after the potatoes came out and they said that I wouldn't be able to eat them. While I appreciate our server being smart enough to understand that they could make me sick, I'm disappointed that this restaurant does not have other choices available. You're better off going to Ches Maggy's where they do have more choices. Definitely not worth the $19 I spent on an omelette!

Ansel is the best bartender in town. I haven’t had a bee’s knees this good in years. The kitchen is gluten friendly and made me an exceptional yellowtail roll. The oysters are fresh and should not be missed

Every time I eat here I end up asking myself how I don't eat here more often. The location is super central to downtown but you can always get a seat, and the food is incredible. Every dish I have had is delicious and satisfying, and I can't say no to a couple pot stickers on the side. Their menu has gluten free options and substitutions available, as well as vegetarian, so there's no excuse not to stop in.

Tana Chitwood

Incredible gluten free nuggets! The bird call sauce is great too. The kid’s meal is a really affordable price and good portion too. Overall cute hidden spot. You can sit outside and get drinks too.

One of the BESTTT burgers i’ve had that was 100% gluten free. At first, I wasn’t sure what to make of the place. It seemed like just another basic indie style restaurant, that was conventionally located next to my hotel. Upon my arrival, I learned my judgment couldn’t be any further from the truth. Once I was seated, I couldn’t help but notice most of their customers were locals, so that says enough about the quality of the restaurant- you would think since it was connected to a hotel that it would be more touristy. I even got confirmation from 3 of the tables nearby that Wooie Fisher was one of their top choices in the city. Now, with that being said, the only reason I am giving a 4 out of 5, is due to the service. Our waiter was a bit flustered- which I understand, we all have our days. But, she ended up having us pay the wrong tab, which was double what our bill was, so it was a bit of an inconvenience. Nevertheless, I will be back on my next trip to town.

Mercantile has an attractive space with an enjoyable menu to select from. Everything was prepared well and the service was very good; knowledgeable and genuine. Stand out dishes for us were the beef cheeks, charred cabbage, and octopus. Lots of enjoyment there! Caviar was also tasty. Spiced carrots were a miss for us; dill forward and not actually spicy. 8/10. Definitely a good spot for a high quality meal. We’ll be back eventually. Also very gluten free friendly.

Rachel Olney

Great experience! Just flew in to Denver and this place is close to Union Station. Nice ambiance, fast service and really nice staff. The food was bomb! I got the congee and my boyfriend got the Chinese sausage fried rice. Both were so so good and flavorful! The matcha was aight. Not bad, just not great. I did really appreciate that they labeled what was gluten free on the menu. Overall, I really loved the experience here and will be returning next time I visit!!

Addie van Lier

Good food and chill atmosphere. They have decent gluten free options with a small upcharge. My husband loved the ramen!

Shelby Rombach

The employees at this location are kind, the place is clean, and the service is speedy. Today I went in and they offered to hang on to my order so I could use the restroom. Little gestures go a long way! Great vegan and gluten free options.
