Go to spot, delicious food with interesting flavors combinations that have me coming back! Safe for gluten free and took other allergies very seriously!
Absolutely fantastic!
All day weekday happy hour with $5 mimosas (special with pomegranate liquor!) and bloody Marys, and almost everything can be made gluten free. The gluten free Cinnamon pancake was just out of this world delicious. Bravovado toast was a treat. Can't recommend this place enough.
Fantastic restaurant and one of the best gluten free places I've been to. I have a gluten allergy and there's so much choice on the menu. You can't even tell it's gluten free!
I would've taken pictures but I forgot with how good the food was.
the food was pretty okay!! unfortunately they were out of all of their lemonades which was a bummer :( otherwise they’re good with gluten free accommodations (on pizza and and sandwiches)
Very lively place, with great menu of creative dishes. Entire menu is gluten free so no worries here. Not your typical Tex-Mex kind of place. I had the birria entree that came with a large bone marrow side with several soft corn tortillas and delicious rice and beans. Very attentive waitstaff who knew the menu inside out. Parking can be a significant issue.
Top notch food. Quick and friendly service, Corey was attentive and helpful with modifications. Especially great spot for those with restrictions, options for vegan AND gluten free needs. New favorite: hibiscus green iced tea 🍵🧊
Counter waitstaff was nice but food is awful. Dried out portages with no salt, soggy tofu with no salt and no seasoning except for turmeric, sliced tofu had zero and I mean ZERO flavor, the biscuits and gravy were horrendous: dry and flavorless, and zero gluten free bread options.
Not sure how they stay in business with the food we had. Literally had to throw it away.
100% gluten free and extremely allergy friendly. Their chicken and dumplings was super flavorful and their French toast was the best gluten free French toast I’ve ever had — crispy on the edges and soft in the middle. Super convenient to order since you use a digital stand to do so and can see all allergens when picking your meal.
They are very good at offering options for a variety of diets, but experienced some discomfort after. Wouldn’t recommend anything from the kitchen (they have gf wrapped pastries) for anyone with celiac.
Patio was great. Food was excellent. Huge portions, the papusas are GIANT. Chips and salsa were top notch. Chose Monses due to the 100% gluten free kitchen to accommodate celiacs in our party.
The food took a long time to arrive, and when it did, my brisket sammy and tater tots were cold. The gluten free bread here is not that good- it’s dry. The candied pork belly wedge and the hotbox mac and cheese were both very good. The restaurant was really cold, and the music is super loud. While the food was decent, all the other factors make it a 3 star.
I ordered one of just about every gluten free appetizer since they have a dedicated fryer. Everything was so delicious and the service was awesome! Also recommend the wedge salad mmmMMmm
We had breakfast there twice while staying at the hotel. The service is excellent and the Eggs Benedict was amazing. The use polenta instead of bread and proscuitto instead of the more traditional Canadian bacon. I would like to go back and try dinner here as the ambiance is really cool. Big windows facing the street. I am Celiac and they have lots of Gluten Free options in addition to a dedicated GF prep space. They take it very seriously and I was safe here. The bar area is really cool on the corner of the building.
This place is great if you have a dairy allergy as most things are vegan by default. If you have a gluten allergy you have to be careful as they do not have have a dedicated gluten free fryer. The killer for me is that I have issues with gluten dairy and soy. They had very few dishes available that could accommodate my soy allergy. Caprese pizza with cashew ricotta. It was ok. I was devestated I couldn't have the chicken and waffles.
Great cocktails.
I can’t over emphasize how amazing our time was here. We let them know in advance it was our wedding anniversary and there wasn’t a single staff member we interacted with that didn’t make a point to tell us “Happy Anniversary.” - it was so lovely! They even gave us a special Anniversary menu!
Every single sip and bite was exquisite. We’ve been to Italy and we’ve eaten true Italian food- this is the real deal. But what really seals this as a “must go” is the service. Brittany, our server, was so amazing. She made us feel welcome and appreciated. She was extremely knowledgeable and truly elevated our experience. Brett and Connor were both extremely helpful as well. Connor was our sommelier recommending the perfect bottle of wine in our price point. I nearly forgot to mention that I’m gluten feee and Brittany made sure that everything I ate was safe. She knew the menu top to bottom.
Overall, 11/10 ❤️ Brittany tipped the scale!
I ordered the French toast, gluten-free breakfast and ordered my eggs over hard and the edges were so crispy. I had to cut it with a knife. The bacon was too crispy. The French toast was good however. Service was good. She was very attentive.
Feels like an authentic French Cafe, good service and the food was tasty. They’re able to make Gluten Free Crepes and I got the Toscana which was very good. It felt a bit heavy as it was a big portion which left me more than satisfied. A bit pricey with a double espresso and one crepe plus tip coming in at over $25 but Id go back. Parking can be dicey!
This was my favorite spot in town to meet friends for good food and good beer. I've met a lot of new close friends at trivia night. Loved the staff, the entire environment and the overall energy of this location. They had the best Karaage in Denver!!
Unfortunately, I noticed a big change in the energy and quality of the location under new ownership. The food menu was cut to a much smaller menu. They no longer had sports playing. The hours they were open were reduced. The beer used to be gluten reduced and was why I came here (gluten intolerant.) I had an incident last week after going to happy hour and got really sick. After talking to some of the staff I was informed they no longer reduce the gluten in the beer since the new owner took over. You can't just stop removing the gluten in the beer and not even tell the regulars or ppl coming in. Someone could have a serious reaction and be hospitalized. Luckily I was better after a few days.
The new owner has now laid off all the staff and it's turned into an Indian food buffet (yak and yeti.) I went into a yak and yeti one time a few years ago and walked out due to the rudeness of staff, smell and lack of cleanliness of the establishment.
I'm very upset spice trade is gone. This new owner destroyed spice trade. This is a great loss to the community and the memories we have all shared. My heart goes out to the great staff. Thank you for all the great memories! ❤️🙏
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!

We’ve been coming here for awhile. It’s a great little spot, but it’s a bit pricey. They do have a lot of gluten free options. They aren’t open often, so you have to time it right. (If you order the cheese bread, double check you get all 6. We’ve now been shorted twice on to go orders 😔)
Hard to put words to the experience. The food, the service, the recommendations, the atmosphere, the wine - everything was just perfect. All the dishes are intended to share and make sure you get a good variety including a couple of the large plates. The bass was cooked to perfection and the steak frites were unbelievable, just to name a few of the dishes we tried. No wonder the chef is a James Beard winner and Annette was named Denver’s best restaurant in 2019. We also had our 3 year old daughter with us and my wife is gluten free and vegetarian and they had no problem accommodating. They even have a cute little curated kids menu. They take walk ins but I highly recommend a reservation. This is your sign to go.
Celiacs, be extremely cautious! I was mistakenly served a regular hazy IPA containing gluten after specifically ordering a gluten-free option. As someone with celiac disease, I was excited to enjoy a beer again and trusted the staff to serve the correct one. Unfortunately, they gave me the Steep Hazy IPA instead of the gluten-free Holiday Hazy IPA. Being from out of state, I didn't recognize the difference right away and assumed it was what I ordered.
This kind of mistake isn't minor — consuming gluten can have serious medical consequences for people with celiac disease. The staff did comp my bill, but the error left me very distressed, and there’s no way to know yet what health repercussions I might face.
If you have celiac disease or a gluten intolerance, I strongly recommend exercising extreme caution when ordering here.
LOVE this place! Excellent food + service, friendly staff, and the owners are wonderful people. I love the atmosphere in this Avanti location, and I can't wait to go back for more. (Also this is a great place if you have a gluten allergy, and they have vegan/vegetarian options!)
This was such a cute place. They have indoor and outdoor seating. Loved the vibe inside. Absolutely loved the food. Lots of gluten free options including freshly made gluten free pita. Which was so so good!
absolutely divine gluten free fried chicken! we got there before 11AM on a Sunday and there was plenty of open seats, highly recommend for brunch! the owner or manager was out on the floor helping everyone: bartenders, servers, the hostess. very nice touch
The food and coffee is great. I love that they are 100% gluten free. The strawberry pistachio bar was outstanding! I’ve have nothing like this where I live in Florida.
Overall Rating 4.5
Urban Egg is that brunch spot if you're in Colorado Springs. The vibe is welcoming, the menu is stacked with unique options (including GF-friendly ones), and the staff? 10/10.
I ordered The Cure (it's a pineapple, vanilla, OJ, coconut water bev) and yes, it did cure me. Light, refreshing,, juicy, and not overly sweet. Also had the hazelnut cold brew, which was super tasty and gave me life.
For food, we went with the Denver Bot Chicken Benedict Bliss. Originally thought it could be made gluten-free and was sad it couldn’t be, but they baked it for me instead and it was still so good. The flavors were spot on, and now I’m just out here dreaming of a GF version with that crispy fried batter. Manifesting that for next time.
Also tried the Ultimate Breakfast Sando with turkey bacon + avo. Solid sandwich, but I’m a thick sourdough or croissant for breakfast sando kinda person, so the bread wasn't exactly my thing. Still tasty, just a personal preference.
Overall: amazing staff, thoughtful menu, and tons of great GF options. Which isn’t always easy to find. Would def come back (and next time I’m trying a pancake flight).
Both of us are gluten free and im also dairy free and egg free. Not only were they able to accommodate us, the menus were very clearly labeled and we felt great after eating there. The staff were amazing as well. Can't wait to go back! Highly recommend!
Amazing! Ever since I've become gluten and dairy free for health reasons 6 years ago, I've been searching for a Cinnamon Roll I could finally eat and I found the best one! I'm so happy I've found a bakery like this and I'll definitely be back soon to try everything!
George was awesome and very friendly! Food was excellent and we were so happy to find a place with gluten free options for our young son who has ciliac!
