Great times

Had a great night and great food just like old times!!!

Mexican food? Nope not hear

Posted byDonJohnsonon 2/25/2010

If you don't like flavor, enjoy Americanized bland unoriginal McDonalds like manufactured Mexican food? Then this is your place. The food is awful. I get dragged to it by some of my east coast friends of mine who just love it. But keep in mind these are the same individuals that had never heard of green chili until they moved to Colorado. I am a chef and love all types of food and it baffles me why anyone would willingly eat at Blue Bonnet. Instead of rambling on about how awful this place is I will just suggest some of my favorites. D'Corazon on 1530 Blake St in LoDo is Amazing. For a few bucks more Tamayo is delicious try the TAMPIQUE?A. Taco y Salsas on E Colfax (not to be confused with Taco's & Salsas on federal) And from my experience some of the best Mexican food I have ever had was out the back of a Taco truck on federal

I love it -Gluten-Free Friendly

Posted byraranumon 2/22/2010

They have an outstanding Gluten free menu, and are so aware of the allergy. They even bring all the gluten free food out on a seperate plate to make sure they track it properly. The service is wonderful, the drinks are never low, the smiles never stop coming and they are not bothersome about it. There are some things I wish they would offer for my husband who can eat Gluten until the cows come home, like soft relleno's and mojito's... but other than that Its a great place to grab a meal and relax and enjoy.

Que Bono!!

In some ways,this place is a hole. The chairs are uncomfortable. The speakers in the bar sound like a rusty trombone. On busy nights, I've seen cleaner restrooms at Cheeseman Park. But hole or not, it's a tight fit for the up and coming progressive community thriving in Antique Row. Antique my heiny!! What a misnomer. This neighborhood is flowing with young blood, teeming with all kinds of stuff. It's a vibrant, throbbing area. I go down constantly. After cruising the many alternative bars and men's movie houses that line Broadway, nothing cleanses the palate like a fistful of handmade chips and spicy salsa from the community bowl put on each table here by the servers. They're bottomless. If you want a stiff one, the pros behind the bar have a firm grasp on the situation and are unusually eager to accommodate. They'll even hold your gluten for you . A greasy palm helps,since it's anything for a Buck in this biz. Tongue in cheek, of course. They do work hard, so if you don't want to be a pain in their rear, butter these guys up. I order my margs frozen, the fruitier the better. It's their specialty. How good are they? I'll suck the tumbler bone dry, grab the stem and lick the bottom for any remaining droplets, then work on the sugared rim. Now nothing slides in easier than a two-fisted burrito, and you can't beat the meat here. Add refried beans for an alluring brownness and that familiar organic texture. My personal preference is the red chile, and I have to have sour cream. Love the creamy stuff. On the whole, it's pretty tasty, and it's a gay, festive atmosphere to boot.There's a kind of urban Brokeback Mountain thing going on, but they don't shove it down your throat. Decor? Subtle southwestern, I guess. So bottoms up, boys, and thumbs too, for this iconic Queen City beanery. Nothing could be finer than a politically correct diner.

Great Staff and Drinks!

I love that they have veggie frendly food that tastes great. They have awesome happy hour and their raz margs are fabulous! Home-made bottomless chips and salsa for $1...can't beat that anywhere in the city!
