Brunette waitress is sooo friendly and efficient. 4 stars only because I miss them being open in the evening...miss their $9.99 special....food is always delicious and their green Chile is great. read more

Came in from out if town and was looking for a quick breakfast after a hike. Food was good, service was good and everyone was kind. It's a little hard to find if you're not looking for it in the small strip plaza it's located in, so keep your eyes peeled!!! read more

One of those hole in the wall cafe's with great food, great service, friendly customers. It's like having breakfast at home at a big family gathering. read more

It's a tiny little restaurant, which can be good because they don't try to do too much at one time, however... Went with my wife for a late breakfast. I had pancakes which were good, but she had an egg/bacon/hash browns/toast combo. The bacon was a weird color and was cold. The toast was also cold. The eggs and hash browns were warmish. Not to mention that the portions looked like a child size. If I didn't know better I would think that this was the rest of someone's breakfast that they didn't finish. When we mentioned it to the server she apologized, told her manager and that was the last we heard. There wasn't any "Can I get you something else" or "I'll remove it from the bill". We got charged the full price for a tiny, cold, sub-par breakfast that even Denny's would be ashamed to serve. Never going back. I told my wife that if I wanted to have a disappointing breakfast I could make it myself and save a trip and $20. read more

Everything on the menu is homemade. With that being said it tastes about the same as it would if I made it at home. However, I am too lazy to always make a big breakfast at home. On those days, this is a great choice and the waitstaff are super sweet. I always get the spinach omelet. I don't like the burritos but then again, I'm from San Antonio and zero Mexican food impresses me here. read more

This is a Thornton staple.It's been here forever. It's always busy. For good reason. The food is pretty good. Not amazing. I like that everything seems to be homemade. The steak and eggs are okay. The Mexican stuff is okay. The one problem I have is that it is kind of pricey. read more

Awesome breakfast place. The staff is friendly and remembers us every time we go. Delicious homemade food. Can't wait to go back.

Local breakfast place. Small and cozy, never been disappointed with the food. Sometimes there is a wait because of the small space, but it is worth it! read more

I've never had a bad meal here. By far the best biscuits and gravy I've ever had in Colorado. It's a bit small and can be crowded but they turn the tables quickly. I've never waited more than five minutes for a table. Great service. read more

I drive all the way from Aurora to have their breakfast... constantly! Absolutely homestyle heaven!!!

We go there for breakfast on the weekends. Very cute place and reminds me of grandma's cooking that I miss!

I used to love this place but my last two visits have been unsatisfying. Most recent visit had my meal arriving in succession with the toast arriving when i was half finished with the entree. The huevos rancheros arrived with eggs overcooked and meager green chile on top. Me thinks Lisa's staff needs to get with the program because i prefer not to support chains. read more

We like Lisa's because it's a place that is homey. The waitstaff are attentive and friendly without being syrup-y sweet. It's a place where you can lean over to the folks at the neighboring tables to say hello and chit chat. Food quality is consistently good although you won't find fancy-schmancy coffees or twists on breakfast foods here. But we always leave full with a positive start to our day, and what is better than that? read more

I make better homemade food, biscuits and gravy was very bland tasteless. Service was good, place is kinda small.

The restaurant is a hole in the wall, and it needs redecorating. The tables have advertisements with QR codes all over them, and it's very cramped inside. We weren't greeted when we arrived, but our server was good. The food was average, the gravy was very very floury, and my omelet was burnt. The sausage in the biscuits and gravy was rubbery, prefrozen. Now, several hours later, I'm feeling sick from eating there. That's something to look forward to. read more

Me and my family come here pretty often and no matter what rush hour etc, the service & food is always amazing! The staff are super friendly & I would recommend this place for anyone looking for a good meal ! read more

Service was great and it felt like a very local place BUT food was incredibly under seasoned and bland. I was thankful for the salt and pepper on our table. Likely won't return. read more

Just a great local place. The food is fantastic. They red a chilli is amazing. I personally recommend the breakfast burrito.

The place is on the small side...but that just adds to the charm. Customer service is outstanding. The food is great. I have to admit that I am one of those regulars that some other reviewers complain about. I always order the same thing and they know what that is without having to ask. There is definitely a reason that I am a regular. You should be a regular too! read more

First time trying this place & I probably won't go back if I'm being honest. We order to go & when we got the food it didn't come with anything most places give when you order to go, no utensils or condiments. The food was a bit pricey for small portions & bland/average food. Bacon was burnt, biscuits & gravy were as bland as it gets. Safe to say for breakfast I'll stick to the Egg & I. read more

Great little breakfast place! Generous portions of food and great staff. The owner was in the back making food and walking around talking to customers. read more

I frequent Lisa's place for breakfast and I enjoy the friendly atmosphere her restaurant has. The food is always good and the portions are very generous. Lisa is very friendly and likes to ensure all her customers are taken care of and her staff seem very friendly and attentive. I would recommend Lisas place for breakfast especially. They have awesome green chili, and my favorite is the chili relleno's. read more

I write this on a full stomach, but not from Lisa's Place. My fiance and I came in earlier today (Sat, Oct 12th 2013) to have breakfast/lunch. We came in at 11:30am. We had never been there before and were looking the menu over for about 12 minutes. The waitress came to check on us a few times to see if we are ready and finally after about 12 minutes she saw I was looking at the burger section and told us they didn't serve lunch on the weekends. At that point we opted to pay for our drinks (1 small oj and a lemonade which was 4.50) and leave. After paying and still leaving a tip (I tipped 12% for the drinks) I go to get up and it's such a small place the waitress is blocking my only way out to leave while talking to customers at the table next to me. I walk up to leave and she's still talking -- a few seconds go by and right before I was going to say excuse me, she finally turned and looked me right in the eyes. Then she turned around and went back to talking! How RUDE. So rude that the customer at the table she was talking with had to tell her to move and how rude she was that she still had not moved out of my way. There were 2 waitresses there, one with a spanish girl and one white girl. The spanish girl was my waitress that didn't tell us that they don't serve lunch on the weekends for about 15 min into being in their establishment and the white girl was the one who blocked me looked at me and still was so rude she went back to talking and wouldn't move. We left and went down the street to another place, it was great. We will be back to that place, but not Lisa's Place. WOULD NOT RECOMMEND. read more

Cute small place but man is the food exceptional. Always go hear for breakfast. The staff was super friendly. They had a huge line which made us realize it was going to be good. read more

I absolutely love Lisa's! This is a very small little restaurant that can get pretty crowded on a weekend morning, but the wait is never too bad. The service is quick, they send food out as it is cooked instead of waiting for your whole table. I have liked everything I've tried on the menu and there are a lot of choices. Something for everybody. I only have 2 complaints; when they are very busy I don't always get as much coffee as I like, and Lisa's used to be open for dinner and they are not anymore. I miss the Mexican food they used to make every day. read more

A great secret breakfast place that's not so secret! Fast, high quality breakfast food with a friendly smile. Go more than twice and they will know your order by heart! Th variety of types of breakfast sausage is a nice twist on the usual choice of link or patty. read more

Absolutely love the small intimate feel of Lisa's place. I come from the east coast and love dinners so much. This place makes me feel at home. Food is so awesome. I love their French toast and my boyfriend is a huge fan of the country fried steak with gravy (I think they call it country Benedict or something). Mona is our waitress almost every time and she is sweet and quick with everything. I want to recommend this place to everyone but also keep it a secret for myself. read more

This is the best local joint around!!! Everything is good and the service is friendly and fun! We go every weekend!

Visited for the first time on Sunday. It's a very small place in a little strip mall and has maybe 8 tables. But it's one of those nice little providers tucked away and worth patronizing. Large menu selection, good basic food and very nice prices. It ain't fancy and you won't find reindeer sausage and duck eggs. You will find a good basic bargain. Worth a little wait if you're in the area. read more

If your in the mood for good friendly service and good food at reasonable prices you won't want to pass up Lisa's Place. Not only are the owners friendly but they care about your opinion. If you think they are doing something wrong or they could do something better, they want to know. Their aim is to please. We have been going there for quite some time now and they have so many regulars we're one big happy family. We will even share a table if they are really busy (which is the case on weekends) and we won't be sitting with strangers but friends we have grown to know over the years. We still have to try the Mexican food that I hear people rave about. Stop by sometime, eat breakfast, get in the football pool and enjoy the friendly service. You'll be in good company. read more

I don't like to complain however my first and only visit to this place was terrible. The customer service was poor. The food was served so hot that it burned my mouth. I was not asked how the meal tasted. They rushed through the service. Then when I tried to contact management nobody answered the phone. Maybe I just have higher expectations of local businesses but definitely will not return. read more

Always delicious! Kids menu needs more options but we make do. The staff is always so friendly! I've been taking my family there for years and even though we moved further away, we still make it there for my green chili fix. read more

Had the breakfast burrito and it was great! Portions are huge and the service was super friendly. You can tell they have lots of regulars that they know by name. I love that! read more

Best little diner in the area. Absolutley a complete breakfast menu with mex dishes too!

Talk about wasted calories. This place was not impressive at all. Everything tasted canned and really bland. Their so-called "special chili" was really bland and goopy. Service wasn't that impressive either. The orange juice my 8 year old ordered was actually SPOILED and SOUR. Can you believe that? The area was cramped too and looked dirty. Not kidding, my stomach is hurting and I feel sick after eating there. We will never go again. I wonder if those who gave this place anything over one star still have functioning taste buds. read more

Service was friendly, the couple plates that my table ordered were nothing to write home about though unfortunately

Very good food and nice atmosphere! Very nice people working there and has been there for a while, loyal customers and good quality food.

my husband and I went here recently and overall enjoyed it. the food wasn't spectacular, but it was still good and worth what we paid for. the staff were all really friendly. my suggestion is just about the decor... could use some updates, and I kind of wanted to buy them some new plates and cups. I'd still go back in the end - I like that it's local and not a chain. clearly, they have lots of fans since it was full when we went in on a Sunday. read more

Very cheap food. Would not come back. Gravy for biscuits and gravy tasted like flour. Didn't finish making the roux first. Biscuits were ok. read more

the only positive thing we can say is the service was very good. We don't think we're coming back, the food was that boring and over-priced for what is being served. read more
