    So the food is amazing and different it is basically the size of appetizers that we recommend sharing among your party. We did and tried 8 different entrees. 5 kinds of drinks were ordered. The Corpse Reviver was different but not bad. The place was originally a mortuary and now a restaurant. The bar counter and ceiling was made of Lite Brite toy from the 70's. Was very colorful and cool. The place is very busy by 6 pm reservations suggested definitely! Service was quick and server was very polite. Half way through dinner we realized table is an autopsy table when we noticed the rollers and the open slot for draining blood from corpse. Pic of table underneath of rollers and opening below. Plus bar and corpse drink. When you walk outside The Little Man ice cream shop is there and lines were long in 28 degrees weather. View of downtown is great from there at night time! Highly recommended to eat here at least once!

    This is a very nice restaurant and we were able to sit on the roof where they have bubbles you sit in and they have heaters. We did not need them because it was a nice winter day. The prices were a bit high but this is standard now post COVID but they also add an additional free I believe was called a recovery fee and it is 5% of the bill. After a nice lunch, being handed the bill and than seeing this on top of our large bill left a bad taste in our mouth. Would this deter us from going again? Likely!

    Love taking visitors to Linger. Food is always high quality and unexpected in the best way. Service is attentive and friendly. The history behind the place makes it unique. Rooftop has the best view. You’ll want to take your friends/family to this one. Be sure to make a reservation so you don’t have to wait!

    Our evening was really wonderful. I met up with a friend I hadn't seen in almost 20 years. We were seated at a table near the window. The window is open at a nice cool comfortable breeze blew in the creamery below had a live jazz band playing. The music was not too loud to overpower the conversation. We had explained to our server that we hadn't seen each other in so long and she gave us plenty of time to chat to order and paste the meal perfectly. Every dish was delicious and we enjoyed a lot of dishes in order to share our meal together. Great company, great food, great service it was wonderful

    We made reservations for 4 people to dine on a friday night. We ended up with 5 and there was no delay getting us in even with the change. The place was very busy so I recommend the reservation. Restaurant was well staffed and we had no problems with service. Our waiter was exceptionally friendly and knowledgeable on the menu, servers made sure everything was ok when the food arrived. Menu is diverse and the food was excellent. It's tapas so we had a total of like ten dishes between the five of us and they were all delicious. The servers even planned the food to come out in waves so as to not completely jam up the table with plates. We skipped desert and went to Little Man ice cream right outside of Linger...also delicious. We will be back but I think we'll shoot for seating on the roof...awesome views of the city!

    Second time I have been here. Love the ambience and the food selection. The Devil's on Horseback were fantastic. Good cocktails as well. I do feel that some dishes were better than others, but still solid. Our server Lucas was great.

    We had a great experience. It's a great place to order small plates and share among a small group. We ordered the Wagyu sliders and they were above and beyond my expectations. The menu is for two but the server offered to add another since there were three of us. The drinks were also great. Fun and trendy atmosphere. The rooftop had open air seating but the night was too chilly for us to venture up there.

    Such a different theme. A restaurant in a former mortuary. Who would have thought?! Everyone in our group of 7 liked their dish. 3 ordered the same thing- the pork burrito. Several drinks spread among the group, too. All were amazed at the potato crust around one dish. I chose the shrimp & grits which was just lovely. Lots of flavors mixed for a total taste treat. Plenty of seating inside and out. Roof top seating available. A tad pricey for this small town girl but....YOLO! We split the bill 6 ways and owed $45 each. That included a nice tip. They automatically add a 3% gratuity to the bill. Definitely a neat place to try with good food!

    Linger didn’t disappoint! In town for the weekend and decided to check it out on recommendation from a local. So happy we did! Great location, awesome decor and music, super friendly, accommodating and knowledgeable staff, and now the food and drinks… every sip and every bite was insanely delicious! Pork potstickers, Korean bbq tacos, tuna poke bowl, and pad Thai… Wish we could have ordered and tried more but we were stuffed! Will be back next time I’m in town to continue exploring their menu. Fun fact- the spaced used to be a mortuary!

    Ambiance was amazing. Staff knowledgeable, friendly and fast. Tapas - a complete delight! Cocktails delicious. Definitely the highlight of our Denver trip and we can't wait to come back again!

    Everything was delicious. But, I thought the chicken was a bit dry on the lettuce wrap. The candied nuts made the dish. Lettuce was small size, but maybe too small for my big fingers to wrap the contents. And had to eat like a pig to keep the food from falling out. Would have been 3 stars without the nuts. Good food but too expensive in my opinion. Parked in valet for 15 bucks with tip. Nice that they have a text to bring your car up. We still had to wait a few minutes... but maybe not as long as without it.

    We had an incredible dining experience at Linger! The food was delicious, thanks to the culinary team's impeccable execution. The menu was not only thoughtful but also brought an element of fun to the meal. The restaurant had a great vibe and ambiance, making the overall experience even more enjoyable. Highly recommended!

    Great atmosphere, very cool decor. We came for restaurant week. It was nearly an hour between our appetizers and entrees. Food was fine, but the service was crazy slow. However, tables around us weren’t experiencing this so I think our server must have forgotten about us. Either way, the food wasn’t worth it.

    🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟 My recent brunch escapade at Linger was nothing short of delightful. I had the Impossible Sliders paired with hot honey waffle fries. I'm not even a vegetarian but they were deliciously satisfying and flavorful. Meanwhile, my friend absolutely loved the crispy and sweet/savory Chicken and Pandan Waffle. But hey, let's not forget the real star of the show: the bottomless blood orange mimosas – a refreshing citrusy addition to our meal. Our server's attentiveness and the restaurant's lovely decor added to the overall enjoyment. In summary, Linger offers a fantastic brunch experience with inventive dishes and a welcoming atmosphere. Whether you're a vegetarian or a fan of classic brunch fare, this restaurant has something for everyone. Don't miss out on their delightful mimosas, and be sure to soak in the pleasant ambiance. It's brunch done right! 🥂🍔🍗🌞

    Excellent food in a former mortuary turned restaurant that embraces its unconventional past. A little pricey for tapas portions but well worth it. Recommend reservations as it does get busy

    I was blown away.. and would like to keep this little secret to myself, but I feel like you all deserve to enjoy it too! If you have a special date and the weather is good, try to get some space on the rooftop. We happened to be there for the Harvest moon..

    Overall our party of 6 had a great time here! The food was delicious and I loved how everything was "family style" so that everyone could try different things. We did ask for specific instructions on one slider dish that was not what we got, but service was super accommodating and took the charge off of our bill.

  • 4/5 Clara D. 4 months ago on Google
    It’s a nice restaurant with a nice vibe. The decor is unique and there is a rooftop bar that has an old RV that serves cocktails. The food was great. The only down side was the service was horrible. We were there for over 20 mins before we got our drinks and an hour to get food. Items were forgotten or wrong. The waitress came off as hostile when we asked for missing items. We were there on a Sunday the place was not busy so this made no sense. We missed out on going up to the bar upstairs because our meal took so long to arrive. Too expensive for this level of service!

    Restaurant in an old mortuary ⚰️ 👻 That’s definitely a reason to go see this place, but not the only reason! Great food. Great drinks. Great atmosphere. Korean flair throughout the menu. I would highly recommend getting the bao buns. Absolutely 💯 amazing! Mimosas were delicious. 🥂 The steak & eggs plate was also incredibly unique and delicious 😋 All the servers and hostesses were dressed in gothic style clothes 🙌 Complimentary church pew fans with jokes printed on them. Best part is the rooftop patio & restaurant sign 🤩 Unique. Full of history. Good meal. In walking distance of local shopping! 🛍️

    4.5/5 ⭐️⭐️. Great place for brunch in Denver - very unique Asian inspired menu but still have your traditional brunch items. Service is great and the drinks were good too. Would recommend the espresso martini and the bottomless mimosa (value for money). Other drinks looked good too but the Espresso Martini is by far the popular drink for a reason. They have a kids menu which is also vegan friendly and comes with an entree, side and fruits, edamame and fruits. We had the chicken Bao - I do recommend it but the trio also looks good. The chicken and waffles were good and is served with this sweet sauce that reminds you of boba tea. The shrimp and grits were good too - it’s a green Thai curry based grits with 2 skewered shrimps (whole) - comes with pork belly but you can substitute the meat if needed. Only issue here was that the poached egg was over cooked.

    The location and history are super cool. The menu has a lot of different options, which is great - we had a hard time deciding because it all looked good! We got the chili shrimp, the eggplant, and the sesame cheesecake. The eggplant was not our fav, but we really enjoyed the other two menu items! Some not-so-greats about our experience include the fans being on a little too high, there were a couple strands of dog hair on our table, our waters stopped getting refilled about halfway through our meal, and we had to wait about 20 minutes for our cheesecake to come out.

    Went here for the first time last week and we were pleasantly surprised. I have a nut allergy and our waitress was very professional and trained very well how to handle food allergies. All of the food that came out was labeled with an allergy stick, so I was 100% sure they knew and treated it with care to not have cross contamination. The food was also delicious and reasonably priced for the level of food and service. I spent $100 including tip for two people and would have no problems going back again.

    This entire place is an experience. The food is absolutely delectable, each plate is its own unique take on a dish and is a treat to the senses. The atmosphere is amazing, especially the second floor where we were seated. And the staff is incredibly welcoming and lovely. Highly recommend and will definitely return.

  • 5/5 Douglas R. 2 years ago on Google
    It was a great experience. Sadly the roof was closed due to the cold. The food was excellent though. Between the Bao Buns, the duck, and the Wagyu Beef, it was a plethora of firsts. I hadn't tried pork belly previously either. If your looking for something kind of exotic, this is the spot.

  • 3/5 Merlin Tha A. 2 years ago on Google
    The services was amazing but the recovery change was a bit much. The food was good but the room my party sat at was subpar atmosphere. It’s probably just me but sitting in the middle of the room feels off. Otherwise the food was vast with options of Asian cuisine style sauce and food a like for the most part. I had the lamb Colorado pita wrap, chucks of lamb not sliced. It sold me the dish under Middle East/African. My sweet potato fries was crunchy and the Texture was complementary to the peta bread. Savory sauce topping! Bit over my spending habits but it’s good to live a little. Cider was tart and crisp like it’s supposed to. Well done linger. Well done.

  • 5/5 Hattie M. 2 years ago on Google
    I ordered it for the first time and it was an Uber eats delivery. That can sometimes be hit or miss but the food travels so well, they package it very nicely, and I feel better for eating it. I’m also thankful for the value of the food. I seriously can’t talk about this enough. I got my phone out as soon as I finished the pie and wrote a review that’s how good it was. Eat here.

  • 5/5 Timothy F. 2 years ago on Google
    Brunch here was incredible. Don’t miss the pork tamales with a poached egg and the churro French toast! Add lovely staff and you won’t want to miss this place!

  • 5/5 Alexander B. 2 years ago on Google
    This place is very cool. I wish I had time to have a drink at the bar upstairs. Food was amazing. Great music too.

  • 5/5 Joni E. 2 years ago on Google
    We had great seating & could see ghost busters playing while dining in a prior morgue. Great service, atmosphere and craft cocktails/ food. I love that almost everything can be made gluten free. Highly recommend!!
