    If you have an opportunity to go here, do so! First time to visit Golden and by a flip of a coin decided on Papa Bears Kitchen. We won the toss!! I selected the Eggs Benedict with salmon served on homemade biscuits with a side of small fried potatoes and the freshest salad made of greens and thinly sliced apples in a lemon vinaigrette. Mercy it was wonderful! My husband ordered the ham omelette which came with toast and potatoes. He's still raving about the ingredients and taste and is now napping, fully content. Coffee was excellent and the service even better.

    Having worked in the food industry--as a a bus boy, waiter, kitchen help, bar back cook, sous chef,…read morechef in food recovery, and through running a non-profit--I've come to realize that for me, it's not just about the food. What truly makes an experience memorable is the service and hospitality, especially when people go above and beyond without being asked. On my way back from Alberta, I was passing through Golden when traffic came to a halt due to an accident. I decided it was the perfect time to stop & top of gas Next to the Petrol Station was Time to Eat Legenz. Reluctant but positive I decided to try the plane out. From the moment I walked in, the service stood out. My server was warm, attentive, and genuinely caring. When I mentioned I was craving some soul food--something heartfelt and not just "cookie-cutter"--she took it upon herself to ask the owner if they could do something special. Even though being hesitant under her recommendation I had ordered a burger, while waiting and having a smoke she came out & said that they can make a unique, off-menu dish tailored just for me. Within minutes, I had an incredible meal in front of me. The gesture itself spoke volumes. It is not about food but about the hospitality, kindness, and willingness to make a guest feel valued. That's the kind of service you can't put a price on. So, while I can't fully review the menu itself, I can absolutely give this place a five-star review for the hospitality and human connection they provided. To the team at Time to Eat Legendz: keep up the amazing work. You've earned a loyal customer, and the next time I pass through Golden, I'll be sure to stop by again.

    Review Visit: July 13th, 2015…read more It's time to start talking aboot my trip through Canada. What a LEGENDary and craZy time that was. 50 hours from start to finish. That was our drive from our home area to our destination in Canada. Of course, that was just the drive time and didn't account for the stops along the way. Most of the stops were legendary but not as legendary as the Z. We were coming to the end of our drive to Nakusp, BC and we needed to fuel up for the last few hours of our drive. I was hungry. The kids were hungry. My cousin and his wife were hungry. It was the perfect time to stop. We quickly used google to look at what was near us and I can't remember who stumbled upon LegendZ as a place to eat but after a round of votes, it was the one we ended up visiting. Weary and road-lagged, we walked in and were greeted with that friendly Canadian attitude we've quickly come to appreciate. The feeding grounds of choice was a table due to the number of us. As we were seated and given menus, I looked around and couldn't even begin to digest the 50's American culture that was present. LegendZ felt like it belonged on Route 66 somewhere. As we adjusted to the diner seats from the van seats, we cracked open the menu and started looking it over. All of us quickly noticed that the offerings were very similar to what you would find in a diner in America. Cheap and greasy food offerings with a touch of hometown/local flair. There was your standard burgers and sandwiches. Your usual all-day breakfast items. Poutine (which I hadn't had at this point in the trip). A big variety for a small place. Orders were placed and within maybe 15 minutes, our food was brought out to us. Kind staff and fast cooking for a table of 5. Not too shabby. I ordered a Bacon Cheeseburger with french fries as I needed something that would pack a punch since we still had 8 hours of driving to go. When the food, we all kind of smiled that exhausted smile that comes after such an arduous trip. What I was expecting was nothing like I got. My expectations were a bit low due to being tired and wore out. I thought it would be your run-of-the-mill food where it doens't blow your socks off but doens't leave you wanting more. That first bite in to my sandwich, I knew we made the right choice. The bacon was thick and semi-crispy, just how I like it. The burger patty was juicy and seeping in flavor. The combination of those two things plus the toppings and condiments made for a heavenly taste. It came with french fries, which were crinkle cut and alright. It's hard to make fries exciting and these were standard fare. Being the last stop before we hit Nakusp, BC... I am not sure if it was pure exhaustion or what but LegendZ was loved by us all. At this point, we had been on the road for maybe 45 hours and still had 8 hours to go. Maybe that factored in to the food tasting extra delicious Maybe it was delicious on it's own. All I know is that it was just one of our many stops in our epic two-week cross countries trip.

    My friend and I came here Sunday of a long weekend (Labor Day), around 11:30. There were 2-3 groups…read morein front of us in line, but the wait wasn't too bad, and we got seated after 15 minutes. We both had a phenomenal dining experience here. My friend got the veggie breakfast burrito ($14.25), which according to him was really good. I was starving and wanted something hearty, so I decided to go with the steak and eggs ($16.25). It's been a long time since I've had steak, but the one here was excellent especially for the price. I asked for it to be cooked medium rare and it was very tender. It also had enough salt and other spices for flavor. I don't know if it was because I was really enjoying the steak or not, but even the potatoes here tasted better than normal. The kitchen works quickly too; our food came out within 10 minutes of ordering. I also noticed the other tables were getting turned around quickly as well. We will be back next time we drive past Golden.

    I like supporting locally owned and operated establishments so would like to give a higher rating,…read morebut cannot. The entry needs a bit tidying up to be welcoming, but the inside is kind of cute and clean enough. We were greeted and seated promptly. I had the Big Bend Hot Cereal, which was okay. Sorry to say, I didn't feel safe adding the fresh fruit cup. Hubby had the pulled pork breakfast sandwich, which was very good. The major disappointment was the coffee. It was super super weak. There was no saving it, and for a breakfast place weak coffee is a deal breaker. It wasn't like Denny's weak, it was almost-water weak. Maybe just an off pot; but it was bad.

    Called to make a reservation the day of. Got seated within 5 min of our arrival…read more Service was friendly and this place has good vibes. Was hoping to get there early enough for their early dinner special which looks like a fantastic deal but forgot Golden is on MST so our arrival was actually an hour later than we thought. Started with the sticky ribs which were good but not fall off the bone tender. Also having it served with tortilla chips was weird bc there's nothing to dip the tortilla chips in. Got the sirloin steak with seasonal veggies, mashed potatoes and garlic sauce. There was a sweetness to the sauce which I found interesting. The steak was cooked well and tender. My friend got the cannelloni which was filled with veggies, sausage and cheese. It was served piping hot and he enjoyed his dish as well. We would return

We were at the…read moregolden sky bridge not too far away and after leaving were hungry and wanted to find a place to eat. Came across this restaurant and decided to give it a try and I'm so glad we did! Their first hour they have meal deals which were really worth it! The restaurant was really fancy looking much more than I expected. We ordered: 1. Pork Kim Chi Pot stickers: These were just okay. Kind of tasted like it was from a package and just boiled and headed up to serve and not as much hand made there. 2. The dragon plate over pasta: Holy crap this was SOOOO GOOD! The waitress was so amazing and recommended we get the dragon plate over something instead like pasta because it soaks up the sauce better and she was so right! The sauce was amazing I wish I had bread to soak it up. There was so much seafood and it was so fresh. The quality of the seafood was also amazing. 3. House daily pasta with chicken: Super good and perfectly good chicken. The sauce was also amazing with this. My wife ordered this so she ate most of it but I liked it a lot. 4. Cookies and cream cheese cake: Exactly as you'd expect it to taste. Rich cheesecake and nice crunches from the oreo. Overall, we had such a great experience here. It was easily the best thing we ate on our banff trip. The waitress was sooooo nice and gave us such excellent recommendations. We were so lucky to have randomly come across this place on Yelp and that they opened right when we got there. This is a must try restaurant.
