Can’t say enough great things - their menu has so many options and all of them were so good. Their Wagyu sliders and hot honey sweet fries will be in my dreams!!!

This was my third visit to Linger, each time I have loved the variety of food (the menu rotates). I even got to try a gluten free ramen on one visit which is a rare find. I visit restaurants with a Gluten allergy, and my partner has a dangerous shellfish/seafood allergy.

Each visit they have taken our allergies seriously, answered any questions, and accommodated changes if we wanted adjustments. The staff have been friendly and helpful. This last visit the manager stopped by to talk with us and was kind and funny.

I would recommend a visit for some different flavors and a change from the norm (depending on their rotating menu). Just dont go in expecting a huge meal, its closer to a tapas style, volume wise. Great drinks too. My favorite from my last visit was the honey stung fries, in a spicy honey with a house made ketchup. The spice builds and it was delicious. Fried in a seperate frier.

“Linger?” I’ll say so. Me and 3 people in my party all had explosive diarrhea for 2 days after eating here. One of them had gastric distress for 5 days after! Portions were minuscule and overpriced. Service took 45 minutes for us to receive any of the tapas, which were supposed to come out as they were ready. This used to be my favorite restaurant but I’ll never go back.

I ate here and had the skewers, sliders, sweet potato fries, and edamame. It was all very good! I’m a super sensitive celiac and did not react. They have separate fryers and everything with an allergy comes out marked. They were very knowledgeable.

Great experience! Great food! Tons of options are labeled gluten-free on the main menu. Staff is knowledgeable and they even have a separate fryer for the fries in the main kitchen. Food came out with a stick and it flagged as gluten-free.

They were very knowledgeable about all allergies, including gluten and had plenty of gf options. My food came out with an allergy toothpick in it and I felt good afterwards and didn’t get sick. They were very attentive to my needs.

EDIT: Unfortunately got super sick after eating here this week. I've eaten here a few times and have never had symptoms like this, so may have been an off day in the kitchen. However, based on similar reviews, it seems like they're not the most consistent about allergies.

Delicious food, tons of options (including a gluten/dairy free dessert that isn't sorbet!!). Love the ramen and the impossible burger. I've never ordered something here that wasn't spot on.

I was extremely excited to go here after reading reviews, but I got really sick afterwards.

I wrote on the reservation that I had celiac and told the waiter I had a severe gluten allergy when I was seated. I had the chicken lettuce wraps, lamb kebabs, and one of the desserts. The lamb kebabs came out on flour pitas, so I quickly sent them back and everyone at the table was given a free shot of liquor to make up for the mistake.

It was obvious after leaving the restaurant that the waiter must not have marked the appetizer or dessert gluten free as well because I was sick that night and the entire next day.

I was really impressed by this place on paper, and after grabbing a drink on the rooftop bar, I felt really excited to try the restaurant below. They were so thoughtful about celiacs, food allergens and dietary restrictions in general. But when I tested their Vietnamese Crepe dish with my NIMA sensor and gluten was found, it all went downhill for me. Our waiter was sweet as pie and willing to help out in whatever way he could, but the manager came out to speak to me and was very condescending. She insisted that there was no absolute way that there was gluten in the dish since it was made with gf ingredients. She didn't care what my "little sensor" said, insisted the line staff agreed that it was impossible that there was any cc, and so on. She left and came back a second time to insist they weren't at fault, but they could bring me something else. I had already lost my appetite at that point, and already had another order of food that I could test and eat. They were the new yellowfin tuna tostadas, which ended up being safe and amazing, but the prior interactions with the manager ruined it for me. It stinks to have a disease where you get violently ill if you ingest even trace gluten, and then to be treated like that. The food that was safe was very tasty, though. The waiter was apologetic, but the manager was rude. And I feel like managers are usually our main allies in safe eating experiences at restaurants. I don't live in Denver, but if I did, I wouldn't go back based that treatment alone. Should I come back and find gluten found on a Nima reading, I don't need to be shamed by the restaurant. I think it was a blow to their pride, but still it wasn't acceptable.

I am going to be fat and happy for a month after my meal at Linger. Excellent gf notations on the menu. Went on Tuesday for the 3 courses for $30. Definitely worth it. I wanted to bribe the chef to teach me how to make the Vietnamese crepe made from coconut and rice flour (vegan). The Thai fried rice was the best I've ever had and the gluten free dessert trio and Thai snow were the perfect end to a great meal.

I ate lunch at Linger yesterday (7/22/15) and woke up this morning with the obvious signs that I had been glutened. I made it very clear to the staff that it was an allergy and not just a request. I will never eat here again after the many hours of pain I went though. such a shame that a "fancy" place like this can't even provide truly gluten free food.

This is a fantastic place in a super unique industrial style space. Multiple GF options. Oaxacan tamale and Indian Dosa were two of the best. Estrella Daura on the beer list. After a flight from SF and being the first night in Denver I felt right at home with the quality and atmosphere.
