    Main dining area

    Downtown Leadville on main, having a good vide with the sign "Grab a Menu and Seat Yourself" Two for lunch and we order the chicken enchiladas and the ground beef enchiladas. The food was tasty, authenticate and nice portions. Service was quick, Luna was great, 5 stars for the restrooms and a nice lunch overall.

    Rocky Mountain Oysters

    What a surprise to find a fully vegan restaurant in a Colorado mountain town?! Came to check them out for lunch and it wasn't bad! I had the Rocky Mountain oysters (trumpet mushrooms) and the tamales. The RMOs were delish! I could have done with little more ranch but I had just enough to get me through the plate. The tamales were just so-so to me, not as much filling as I would expect & just not as flavorful as I was hoping for. Service was fine, atmosphere was alright - very diner-y. If I'm ever in Leadville, I'd like to come back & check out other menu items (especially the bakery!).

    Veggie fajitas

    NOTE FOR FELLOW VEGANS: They are no longer a vegan restaurant!!! However they can make their veggie dishes vegan, just make sure to ask for no dairy. Service: 5 stars, super kind, understanding of us vegans and substituted everything we asked for. Food: 5 stars, absolutely delicious with nice portions, we got the veggie burrito and the veggie fajitas with no dairy, tip, if craving the veggie burrito, get the fajitas instead, the veggie burritos filling is the same as the fajitas, and you get more with the fajitas. The only reason this is a 4 star review, is that while the chef was making our burrito, they sprinkled some cheese in our no-cheese burrito, and they were advertised as a plant based restaurant when they weren't. Thankfully they were kind enough to give us another burrito free of charge. :)

    The food was very good, but services was pretty mid. I enjoyed my breakfast, but after sitting for 20 minutes they finally took out drink order and after 20 more minutes our food order. Our food came out in a timely manner yet we had to go ask for our beverages about half way through our meal. Waitress seemed upset we asked for the drinks we ordered, but other than the service the food was good! It was also not busy when we showed up, maybe 5 tables total with 4 waitresses going around.

    The food is alright, but the service is extremely slow from start to finish. No formal fountain drinks, canned drinks only. Waffles came out cold, bacon was burnt, but the ham slice and eggs were good.

    Cauliflower wings.

    Saw the great reviews, been craving a rubin sandwich, that's it. Stopped in on a Sunday around 11:15, lunch didn't start until 11:30. Very polite staff let me sit wherever and wait until the kitchen changed. I wanted to try the maitake mushrooms but the server told me they were some kind of chunk product and not just fried mushrooms. She recommended the cauliflower wings instead and they were quite good. They were served with some celery carrots and what looked very much like ranch dressing but tasted, well, nothing. The Reuben sandwich was very small, two pieces of fake meat that looked like corned beef but didn't taste like anything at all. The cheese was gummy and bland. Surprisingly the sauerkraut was also bland, and the thousand island dressing looked authentic but didn't taste like anything at all. Given the above I probably would have the golden burro 4 stars, but I was surprised when the bill came. The server made it a point to tell me the total of my bill without showing it itemized. I added a generous tip and asked for the receipt. Only then did I realize that the original amount included a 5% service fee. I looked at the fine print on the menu and felt bamboozled. See photo attached.

    The food is great, great customer service. I love this place. I also enjoy the atmosphere. We stayed near by and would walk here in the mornings, felt magical. Also a vegan friendly menu, freshly squeezed orange juice. It's all in the details, friends.

    Terrible food and slow service. Go elsewhere. Huevos took over 45 minutes and every 5 minutes, we were told they were done. Never again.
