I love a good deviled egg but this one was just okay, it lacked any flavor. I also saw people rave about the cinnamon roll but it was just okay and dry. Steak and eggs were simple and classic but not warrant the price point. A lot of the items on the menu were a bit pricey for size/taste/quality but for a special occasion or date night could be worth it. Located off Blake St so parking is on the street, or garage if you prefer. There are some pull off areas where we saw many people being dropped off first. Stairs & ramp which make wheelchair/stroller accessible. Walk-ins are acceptable or you can make a reservation online! Menu includes GF options. Cool outdoor area for seating & games. Indoor seating's include standard, bar, booths & tables.

First, wife is a vegetarian and they had no mains other than Mac and cheese for her. She ordered the salad without chicken which was $25. They knocked it down to $22 after I asked why it was the same price without meat, which still seemed like a lot for a salad with no protein. Kids' Mac and cheese was not the same receipe as last time; it was a different noodle and seemed to be needing some salt as it was pretty bland. Unlike our last visit they did not include an ice cream for dessert. My fried chicken and waffles was ok--the breading was a bit soggy though and I much preferred the Nashville hot chicken from my last visit. If I'm being honest this was closer to a 2 star experience, but with how good the last visit was, I'm giving them the benefit of the doubt they maybe tonight they were just off. That said--need one vegetarian entree for the menu.

Ordered a small combo with ends and perfectly cooked catfish fillets/tenders. Sweet potatoes casserole was very tasty. I am not a greens expert but these were bitter. I did not alert the server but I thought maybe that was the way the restaurant made them. The peach cobbler was rich and good. Should have ordered ice cream as able mode. Large portions. My only big concern was the extra utility charge on the bill. I did not see it until I got nome, a little late to discuss.. On a $102.00 bill it was just shy of $18.00. I would definitely recommend but be aware of the extra charge. Restaurant/Service fee is the designation on the bill, listed as 18.5% and "is not a tip" per bill. Music was great. Set up with a piano but we were there before the sound group arrived.

They also do bbq and I haven't had any in a while. I ordered the sampler with rib tips, burnt ends and fried shrimp. The grits were good and the catfish was light and crispy. The rib tips were coated in a sweet bbq sauce. Not my first choice but they were good. The burnt ends were tender. I also got to try the mini corn muffins - yummy, the mac and cheese - yummy, the yams - and the potato salad - bland. The owner told us it was his fault the potato salad wasn't good. He was a very friendly guy. Answered all our questions and spent time with us. It's always good to speak to the owner when you are from out of town. He's done a lot with the place. We would have gone another day to try other things but our schedule was tight. Everyone was happy with their choices. It's a nice place, live music on certain nights, lots of room.

As a Milwaukee transplant, I had been searching for a good soul food spot since moving to Colorado. The first time I came in, I told Mr. Swirk that if the food was good, I'd be back. Since then, I've returned three times--and I plan on coming back again. My favorite order is the catfish sandwich it comes with a side. The fish comes out a beautiful golden color and is served with lettuce, tomato, onion, tartar sauce, and hot sauce. The catfish is battered perfectly--crispy, flavorful, and not overly salty. Every bite was delicious. The menu offers a great variety of soul food favorites. I noticed greens, sweet potatoes, red beans and rice, shrimp, and several other comforting dishes. There was something for everyone. What really stands out is the customer service. Mr. Swirk always acknowledges customers when they walk in. Whether he's busy or not, he lets you know he'll be with you shortly or takes your order right away. That personal touch makes you feel welcome. As for the atmosphere, it's a good old-fashioned soul food dive--the kind of place where the focus is on great food, friendly service, and feeling at home. No fancy frills, just good cooking and good people. If you're looking for authentic soul food and perfectly fried catfish, I highly recommend Swirk Soul Food. Thank you, Mr. Swirk. I'll definitely be back. Come hungry and leave happy. Tell him the Milwaukee lady sent you.

The server was quick to take my order and friendly. Definitely glad I got it to go because it was a bit loud due to a large group being there. Food took a little bit of time to make but definitely well worth the wait. The beans were very sweet and yummy. Mac and cheese slaps your taste buds with so much flavor. The ribs on the 2 meat platter I only got 3 of them and a huge link but for the price I thought it was worth it. Can't wait to come back and try the wings and the different types of sauces they got. There is parking garage but parking on the street wasn't a problem in the evening.

It included a Hawaiian roll as well. I also got a banana pudding for a sweet treat. The Bbq sauce was top tier on the ribs- absolutely delicious. The rib meat was tough... but overall had great flavor. The Mac & cheese was dry, but green beans were pretty good! Banana pudding was a custard base and was thick and creamy and so worth it. Will absolutely be back to try more of their sauces and for more of that banana pudding Love that they endorse local businesses, right when you walk in there is a table full of cards for cleaning, dispensary deals, stickers, barbers, etc etc. The young ladies working were very friendly!

Not sure if you can make reservations, but the hubby and I walked-in without one. We chose to sit at the bar. I kid you not, the couple next to us ordered their food and it came out in less than 5 minutes. We were all impressed. The bar tender was our server, he made us delicious mimosas. They have an extensive drink list btw. If I was feeling extra fun, I would've ordered an espresso martini. Now to the main course, I opted for something different, "the K-Mack" which includes a Korean fried buttermilk chicken with a cabbage slaw and green onions. It was so good. My mouth is watering thinking about it again haha. Aside from our delicious brunch, the restaurant vibe screams Denver. Lots of decor, plants, art, different kind of seating. It's fun. It's welcoming. It's so Denver and I'm here for it.

The aesthetic extends to the interior, complete with old school coin-operated jukeboxes. I'm a huge fan of breakfast food and diners, so my expectations were already high; Rosie's delivered. This is the spot for delicious omelettes and milkshakes wrapped in yesteryear nostalgia. If I lived in the Denver metro, I would make this a regular weekend spot. I'm certain many in Colorado are well aware, but I extend the recommendation to my fellow out-of-towners. Have a cup of cofffee, omelette, and maybe a milkshake; you might leave stuffed full, but not upset. I enjoyed a Greek Omelette and a cup of coffee while my wife ordered biscuits and gravy. Prompt service and warm dishes, a great morning prep for the long drive ahead. Stop by if you're in the Denver area. I wouldn't mind another meal the next time we end up in Colorado.
