    Solid service and solid food. Quick clean nutritious bites. Enjoyed my Baja Chicken Salad! Well structured menu and enjoyed the vibes sitting on the curb side patio.

    Ya know? If ten dollars is not out of your budget, I suspect that you will be well pleased with the salad options here. We were. Garden Steak Salad Urban Farmer Salad Baja Blackened Chicken Salad Salmon Caesar Thai Coconut Salad The place was tranquil and clean

    I stopped here to fuel up before a beer fest that I knew wouldn't have anything for the vegans. I got the Buddha Bowl and a cookie. Both tasted great, but the bowl wasn't very filling. My friends got the Arugula and Goat Cheese Salad and Aleppo Steak Sandwich--both were pleased with their choices. Overall, this is a good choice if you're looking for a light bite.

    I love a good Caesar salad and I love to get it everywhere I go! I ordered the salmon one at modern market and it was so good! I always love getting take out here after class because everything is so healthy and I don't feel crappy after eating here. It's always lively around lunch time and super busy. Some other items I like getting here are the garden steak and urban farmer!

    Healthy, delicious and fast! I've eaten at Modern Market Eatery a couple of times when I've traveled to Denver for work and appreciate the fresh options they offer! Sometimes you just need a quick lunch that's tasty and nutritious, and Modern Market delivers. I like their salads and sandwiches. Tomato soup was decent but not amazing. -1 star for cleanliness and organization. This spot seems perpetually understaffed so the housekeeping could be improved.

    I really enjoyed this! It's kind of similar to Sweet Green but less expensive. Did a build my own salad, which amounted to about $16 after tax and tip. It was not an excessive amount of food but a very reasonable meal. This location is right on the 16th street mall. It has WiFi and a lot of indoor seating. A good spot for lunch and doing work before or after catching a train at Union Station. Appreciate the vegan and GF options!

    Fresh, fast, and reliable spot right on 16th Street Mall! During our cross-country road trip, my dad and I spent a morning exploring Denver and found ourselves at the 16th Street Mall. I was in the mood for something light but filling, and Modern Market Eatery totally fit the bill. I ordered the salmon Caesar salad, swapped the Caesar dressing for balsamic vinaigrette, and was really happy with the result! The ingredients tasted fresh and balanced, and while the salmon was a little on the dry side, it still had solid flavor and seasoning. Service was quick and efficient, which I always appreciate when traveling. The restaurant itself had good vibes to it also. The only hiccup was that one of the women's restroom stalls was out of order, which left a bit of a line; otherwise, no complaints. This is a great option if you're in downtown Denver and want something healthy, quick, and reasonably priced. I'd definitely recommend it for anyone needing a good midday pick-me-up!

    Super fresh, healthy & delicious food. I tried their curry salmon bowl - really satisfying meal.

    Mushroom pizza

    Had a mushroom pizza with the side arugula and goat cheese salad. That salad slapped. Pizza was tasty too. Decent option if you're near 16th!

    While staying in Denver we came here as we love a good grain bowl, and wanted something a bit healthier. Upon arriving we got in line and browsed the menu, when it was our turn to order I had a question about one of the items and if it could be modified as I was considering ordering it but when I asked, the cashier turned around, left the register and started making salads, and another worker came up. The new worker that came up didn't understand my question, and ultimately I decided to order a chicken grain bowl. The food came out quickly which we thought was great! The food in my bowl was all room temperature/cold as if it had been sitting out. My husband had the same problem with his. We thought that maybe it was supposed to be a cold bowl, so we went ahead and tried it. It only took a few bites to then uncover the "sketchy chicken" pieces. After seeing these I refused to eat the remainder of the bowl. It's extremely unfortunate because the menu concept seemed neat, the prices were a bit higher, so I was really hoping for a quality meal, but was left hungry and out thirty dollars. I wouldn't recommend coming to this location currently. I do hope they are able to get it together in the future as it does have a neat menu and good potential!

    The menu offered enough variety that any diet preferences or restrictions could find a delicious option. The gentalme that took my oddr was patient and helpful as this was my first visit. The space is bright and soothing. It felt clean and inviting. I ordered the build your own bowl with salmon, sweet potato mash, an arugula with goat cheese salad! It was delicious. I would recommend this as a quick nutritious option in downtown Denver!

    Baja Blackened Chicken

    Another great experience! Food was fresh and delicious! Would recommend would return!

    Chicken and steak bowls ! Both chicken and steak were dry and chewy. But great presentation
    Mecede A.

    Staff were friendly and menu had various options! We ordered various dishes including chicken and steak bowl/ salad and steak sandwiches. Unfortunately both chicken and steak were very dry and chewy! However we loved the drink selection particularly the cucumber mint. Pizza was good too.

    I would strongly recommend people to stay away from the food they serve here unless maybe you are…read morewanting a cold sandwich and I am told they have good beer. They simply Do Not care about general food safety getting a hot meal here is rather risky I will explain why. My friend was a cook here for a short while and quit on them once he realized they care nothing about serving food that is safe to eat, he saw them do sooo many things that would easily make the food contaminated and unsafe to eat and somehow that was there process of doing things. Here are a couple examples of menu items one should try to steer clear of Chicken parm sandwich- they cook off a large batch of the chicken cutlets and let them sit at room temp for a hour or two until someone orders one they refries them for a minute or so, your supposed to keep food hot once it is cooked especially chicken to leave cooked chicken at room temp for so long is extremely risky to the public's health. Meatball sandwich- they leave there meatballs on the hot line all day then they save all of the hot food items from the day and reuse them the next day without properly cooling any of the food and the cooks will leave these item sit out at room temp for about 45 mins before even putting them into the cooler. Many issues with this practice first of all hot food should be discarded after 5 hours according to the health department because after 5 hours it will start growing bacteria, to leave it on a hot line all day then save them for the next day and not even cool them down properly is Crazy risky to people's health and they do not just do this with the meatballs they do it for many of there hot dishes they are used for days on in, not properly cooled and not properly tracked for how many times it has been reheated and such me they keep them in the same pans it's flat out gross. Other issues my friend encountered there was never seeing anyone at all wash there hands at any point in time, a ancient dishwashing machine that didn't clean anything at all it didn't even get hot so half of there dishes are greasy and have food residue on them, in his short time there he saw people fired for no reason what's so ever from what he was told the owner fires people left and right and doesn't even give reasons as to why, that's why they have ads up on indeed looking for employees 24/7.

    My husband sandwich was delicious, but mine was not. I ordered a simple chicken sandwich but it was…read moresuper dry. There are kid friendly menu items which was great. The portions are semi big. However, as everywhere the total for 3 sandwich was instance. Close to $70 dollars. Service was great, however our server seemed annoyed and told us to get our own water even though she grabbed water for the other table next to us. Weird. But the ambiance great! Love their outdoor seating.
