We made a reservation here for brunch. We didn't really need the reservation since it ended up not being that busy. Our group enjoyed a variety of options both breakfast and lunch type foods. I had a delicious Caesar salad! We were in the area for a teaching conference so we loved the theme!

It was okay. We went on a busy busy night so I've got to give them a little slack for that but they knew it was coming and we're very ill-prepared.

Fun fact, the slate hotel used to be Emily Griffith opportunity school. It was so fun to visit as a teacher.
The lounge is INSIDE the slate hotel.
Service was phenomenal. Very kind waiter! We were on a time crunch, we wanted to order apps and head back for the Nutcracker. The waiter understood, helped us get our order as quickly as possible, and helped us to pay ahead of time so we can save time! He also took great photos of us!
I got the burrata and toast. The fig mostarda is the best part!
I also ordered the purple mirage. It was rum, pineapple, coconut cream, all spice, ube, and lime. It was tropical, but not overwhelmingly sweet or gross.

I couldn't tell you how teachers lounge is because even though it says they close at 11:00 p.m. they actually close at 10:00 p.m. without posting it...

For my short trip to Denver, this was the BEST place we ate. First the sat our large party of 10 with no issues. The server was fantastic, the drinks and food delicious in the atmosphere… Amazing. This restaurant is located in the hotel The Slate. Which is in an old school brick building. It has the perfect mix between the historical place, same basic structure brick work and then also a modern flare that feels very warm and inviting. Highly recommend!
