    Blackened Salmon - $18.90 as of 6/2025
    Bob L.

    Creole cuisine in Colorado? This we had to try! Loved the decor of the place and the service was great! Items we ordered as of 6/2025: - Beignets - $7.99 - Delicious and a must have. Not too sweet with a lovely pillowy center! With coffee this is a slam dunk. Just don't make the same mistake I did and blow on it to cool it down (powdered sugar EVERYWHERE). - Blackened Salmon - $18.90 - Great blackened flavor. If you like Cajun blackened flavor then you'll love this. Salmon perfectly cooked as were the eggs! Cajun home fries was pretty good especially if you like that Cajun seasoning. - Country Fried Steak - $16 - This was absolutely delicious. The sausage gravy was rich with a nice spicy kick to it and the steak itself was very tender and fried to perfection. I would 100% order this again. - Complimentary Biscuits - Huge and delicious! The buttery crispy exterior gives way to a soft crumbly interior. Quite satisfying. Overall we were quite happy with our meal and would happily return next time we're in the area!

    I loved my cheese omelet, grits, huge biscuit and beignet- there were so many other things I wanted to try, so I hope I can go back someday. Our server was very organized and prompt. We had 11 people. They have fresh squeezed orange juice which I love. It's a smaller place it looks like it was a house tsp the restaurant is divided into rooms. Very casual and relaxed.

    Excellent service! Delicious Cajun and bfast foods (& drinks). Lovely patio for dining. Don't skip the special beignets with your coffee! FYI: giannnnntttt cornbread biscuit muffin thing came with our meal -- I had to bring it home, too full! Really enjoyed our breakfast trout with egg/hollandaise and other food choices

    We visited this place for a nice breakfast before heading up to Rocky Mountain National Park. Our Airbnb was in Longmont, so this was conveniently in the same area. The food was super hearty and tasted like a home cooked meal. Food ordered: - Beignets: Delicious fried pillows of bready pastries covered in a generous dusting of powdered sugar. The pastry was not too sweet, which was nice, and tasted yummy with their homemade strawberry rhubarb jam! - Cajun Breakfast: A ton of food, with red beans with meat, 2 eggs, hollandaise. We got grits and potatoes on the side, both had nice flavors. It also came with a biscuit, which was nice and buttery and moist! And tasted great with the jam. - Creole Breakfast Burrito: Stuffed with red beans, egg, and carnitas. I was stuffed! It was very wet though so I had to use a knife and fork to eat it. Overall they had delicious breakfast with nice Creole flavors!

    How fun is this!

    Having lived in New Orleans it's wonderful to have this New Orleans style restaurant in my neighborhood. The music and the ambiance bring back memories of my time in NOLA. One of my favorite dishes is the Pain Perdu which is New Orleans style French toast. The homemade syrup is swoon worthy! I add an extra egg & substitute the bacon for sausage. There's also fruit in the plate! The servings are so large at this restaurant! They have one of my favorite chais in Colorado. However (and I may be the only person who feels this way), the beignets are nothing like the ones in New Orleans. They are supposed to be light and fluffy on the inside, but these are heavy and do not have the correct consistency. Other than the beignets, the food is delicious, the staff are friendly and the vibe is top-notch.

    Beignets were so yum!!

    This is such a cute little restaurant and the service was great! I met my daughter for breakfast and all the food was fantastic.

    The location in Longmont was so cute - in an old house! We enjoyed french press coffee and beignets to start and then had the shrimp and grits with a side of trout. It was all delicious!

    I have the memory of an ant, but I remember breakfast at Lucille's in Fort Collins ten years ago. I vividly remember where I sat, what I ordered, and how incredible I thought it was. Apparently folks have caught on and Lucille's has grown like weeds. I knew I had to go when I heard a location up in Longmont. I overheard a waitress saying that the owner was in the kitchen today. Perhaps he sprinkled an extra dose of deliciousness on my breakfast. I ordered the blackened salmon accompanied by 1/2 grits and 1/2 potatoes. Easily one of the best breakfasts I have ever had

    The space is amazing with historic vibes. We actually sat in the patio which was really nice and…read morecosy with a view to the quiet side streets. Service here is amazing and prices are very reasonable for what you get. The food is at a very high level but I thought some dishes, especially the grilled salmon, were a little over salted. The Salmon is great though, very different from the "traditional " way it's served in so many other places. The dessert apple pie was good, but below expectations after everything we had was way above expectations. I feel like this is a hidden gem! There are so many things on the menu I still want to try.

    This experience nearly broke our family. My husband who spent many years in food service was so…read morecranky from the service, or lack there of, it took my daughter and me several hours afterwards to calm him down. I consider myself a fair reviewer, and will do my best to provide constructive criticism in hopes the management will take some steps to educate their staff. My husband, daughter and I spent the night at the Boulderado on the evening of 4/23. In the morning -4/24 -while they finished packing I went down to the restaurant first to get a table as we only had about 50 minutes to go back to our room to get our belongings and check out. The restaurant was not very busy, and I thought to myself, "Great!" The hostess picked up 3 menus, then paused, sighed, and said she wanted to give the server a bit more time to catch up, and she asked me to sit on a bench, though there were multiple open tables where I would have gladly waited. My husband and daughter joined me shortly thereafter and the hostess finally seated us, saying there was only one server working. She handed us 2 breakfast menus when there were clearly 3 of us, and my husband had to get up and go to the host stand to get another one. Our server came by after some time and took our order. Oddly, we saw a different server with another table so she was not the only server working after all. She brought my husby's coffee, but no spoon. Well, at least there was a knife because several servers passed our table without even a glance. He was never asked if he wanted a refill, even when he asked for a spoon and his cup was nearly empty. She didn't even give him enough time to ask for more. The kicker was the manager, pony tail guy- standing outside the restaurant in front of the coffee bar with our server and two other young ladies, laughing it up while we were sitting there completely surrounded by no coffee. Not one person asked if they could bring us anything else throughout the entirety of our meal. We literally had to wave them down for the spoon, then nothing. Time was running out so I sent my grumpy husband and frustrated daughter back to the room to get our luggage and said I'd wait for the server to pay. I sat there another 5 minutes holding my credit card up, and even caught the eye of pony tail guy across the bar, but eventually had to just go to the bartender to ask for the bill. I likely could have just walked out without paying and no one would have even noticed! I will say the food was fine. Hubby had the Denver omelette, which he said was flavorful, and our daughter and I each had the Avocado toast which was very nice. Loved the seedy bread. However, the service-or lack thereof- left a bad taste in our mouths. We love the Boulderado and will be back, but unless there is some training of their young waitstaff we aren't likely to return to Spruce. Overall, the restaurant staff seemed completely disinterested in the customers and couldn't be bothered to even offer a friendly smile. For a hotel like the Boulderado with the reputation of a historic gem, we expect much more from their restaurant. We have dined there previously, most recently last year when we had a lovely server, a much more mature and professional lady who was lively and joked with us. It was a very busy morning and she made sure we felt taken care of even when things took longer. We left with a smile on our faces. A few final words of wisdom- 1) even if things are busy, stop by a new table to offer a pleasant word and let customers know someone will be with them shortly, even if it's not your table 2) when you bring coffee be sure you provide a spoon, and at least one check in about a refill 3) stop by to ask if your customers need anything else, and get them their check in a timely manner 4) if you are a manager, don't stand around gabbing with your staff in plain sight of your customers, while said customers are being ignored, and 5) a smile goes a long way. The only smile we got was from the bartender who at one point seemed to be the only person running the show.
