Good amount of options - Edit
Food came out quickly, good amount of choices to choose from. Wasn’t overly thrilled with the flavors, kinda bland. The lions mane tacos did slap tho, but had some major kick to them. Was excited for the cinnamon roll but they already sold out.

A vegan breakfast to write home about! - Edit
I am always on the hunt for vegan breakfasts that don't phone it in. City O'City does not disappoint. In fact, City O'City is the kind of place that just makes you feel like there might be hope for the world in these dark times.
Read moreThe chicken and waffles were delicious but I think the surprising favorite was actually the Sardou. It's salty, creamy and so hearty, I didn't eat again until dinner.
Also, I have to say, I LOVE that they offer two different $5 vegan breakfast burritos to go. That's about the same price as a breakfast sandwich at any literally national, corporate fast-food restaurant. Big love to City O'City for making REAL vegan food more accessible to people in their neighborhood.
Pros: completely veg menu, hefty and delicious vegan breakfast options, community oriented space

Don’t go here if you’re expecting good service. - Edit
Every. Single. Time. The service has never been good. And fyi they close the kitchen at 11pm even though they claim to be open till 12am.
Read moreHint: when someone on crutches comes in and is standing to get takeout, don’t ignore them and walk away instead of helping them or even acknowledging them. I worked in the service industry for over 10 years and there is no excuse for the crappy service for carry out EVERY TIME.

Worth a trip to Denver - Edit
The food was so good-one of the best vegan/vegetarian restaurants we've been to anywhere. We especially enjoyed the seitan BBQ wings and chorizo and peppers pizza. Nice selection of craft beers as well.
Read moreBe sure to save room for dessert. We tried the Ho Ho cupcake and the chocolate chip

September '24 update: We went for breakfast. Had the Breakfast Sandwich with biscuits, gravy, chorizo, cheese and vegan egg--fantastic!

Great - Edit
- biscuit - 10/10
Read more- BBQ seitan - 8/10 good (should just be called bbq seitan strips probably rather than wings)
They didn't know if the sugar used animal bone char in the refinement process so I stuck with the savory. Would be good to know in the future. Also would be amazing to see the place go fully vegan someday!

Get the Chicken and Waffles - Edit
Their fried cauliflower “chicken” is genuinely the best I have ever had. It beats out any seitan, tofu, or any other meat alternative take on fried chicken I’ve had in 5 years of being vegan. The battered breading has the perfect crunch, and whatever they do to the cauliflower is downright wizardry. Perfectly moist, but not soggy at all with a great firm chew. Not to mention the seasoning was perfect and overall delicious. You will not be disappointed—the only disappointment I had with my meal was that remembering that I don’t live in Denver and can’t eat here all the time. This is vegan fried chicken perfected.
Read moreOh, and my partner liked their breakfast burrito. They said it was good.

Food was good but pricing was deceptive - Edit
Food was delicious. I had the poutine and a cheese stake. Service was really kind and the decor was cute.
Read moreHowever I feel like it’s really scummy that they include a 7% BOH fee (back of house fee), on top of a tip, which is like another 20%.
Just raise your prices instead of including this hidden fee, wtf. I also didn’t like the QR code menus bc my phone sucks at opening stuff, but that’s more of a preference on my end.

Pros: Service, Food, View of the capitol

Great place to dine - Edit
A fun place to dine - especially when you come with vegans and vegetarians. They have great beer 🍺 on tap and we really liked the food. We had an appetizer of flatbread with dips and olives and loved it. The z’ataar spice was incredibly flavorful.
Read moreThey offer vegan and dairy mozzarella as cheese 🧀 options and they even let us do half and half on the pizza 🍕 because it was huge and we could not even finish, despite sharing it. Their home made vegan 🌱 mozzarella has a slight coconut flavor to it.
It’s also a fun venue and the staff were super friendly

Good food, good vibes - Edit
Even though it’s a vegetarian place they can make almost anything vegan and their baked goods seemed to be vegan when we looked in their case. My partner got a lemon head cookie and said it was good. We got the City breakfast to share (vegan with tofu scramble) with the biscuit and gravy and a side of sautéed greens. The biscuit and gravy were really good! I highly recommend getting some green chili sauce as well.
