Tripadvisor’s approach to reviews
Before posting, each Tripadvisor review goes through an automated tracking system, which collects information, answering the following questions: how, what, where and when. If the system detects something that potentially contradicts our community guidelines, the review is not published.
When the system detects a problem, a review may be automatically rejected, sent to the reviewer for validation, or manually reviewed by our team of content specialists, who work 24/7 to maintain the quality of the reviews on our site.
Our team checks each review posted on the site disputed by our community as not meeting our community guidelines.

Very Good Food

Ate here for the first time today. Had the sweet potato burrito. The filling was very good with plenty to eat. Only thing disappointing was the sauce. The red sauce was not very consistent. One bite and you could taste a lot of chili powder...More

Solid breakfast place, no wait

Enjoyed this wonderful breakfast restaurant in Fort Collins. Friendly staff with great selection of food. Must try the breakfast burrito. If looking for breakfast with no or little wait you must go eat here.

Holds a special place for me

Love breakfasts here. This and silver grill vie for best in show. Great vegetarian selections as you might expect. Very much a hippie vibe going on but don't let that scare you off. Wonderful selection of breakfast selections in a funky house location.

The restaurant seats a good number and the tables can be arranged to seat a party of ten. I'd call ahead to ensure they can do this with the normal customers who frequent this place.
