While working downtown can be a hassle with finding parking, constant construction and traffic, it does have its benefits. One of the benefits is having a wide selection of food to choose from every day. There’s nothing like treating yourself to some good food to take the edge off! For those unfamiliar with the downtown area, I’ve compiled a list of our employees favorite food spots; we hope you’re hungry, otherwise you surely will be after reading this!
Mono Mono KFC
Starting out strong, we have Mono Mono Korean Fried Chicken (KFC). This is a favorite among many of our staff, discovered by Helena. We love treating ourselves to this crispy deliciousness on long busy nights. Brought to Colorado by JW Lee with the purpose of diversifying cuisine, you seriously can’t go wrong with these wings. Additionally, Mono Mono also has plenty of appetizers and sauces to choose from. Even while slathered in sauce, these wings will always be crispy- even when reheated. Is it magic? We sure think so.
Obento
Next is Obento, a small hole-in-the wall restaurant with a modern feel to it. This cute little spot serves a variety of Japanese food. Ramen, bento boxes, a variety of appetizers, poke bowls and sushi. Let’s not forgot about their boba either! This is a favorite of Felix (and a few others) and we find it hard not to order from here daily. After all, it’s right on 16th St Mall. If you want something quick easy and delicious, Obento is the place to go.
Make Believe Bakery
Now, can’t forget about dessert- allow us to introduce you to deliciousness, Make Believe Bakery. This bakery is 100% vegan and allergen free, but don’t let that scare you away. All of their sweet treats are beyond delicious, all made with love by an LGBTQ+ friendly staff. Helen’s favorites from here are the nut-free banana bread and edible cookie dough- and those are just a few of the many treats they have to offer. This bakery also does custom orders, wedding cakes, you name it.
Dos Santos
Next, a favorite of Matt’s- Dos Santos. This restaurant offers hip and urban Mexican cuisine and spirits. You can enjoy these crafty and delicious street tacos served in industrial, wood-accented digs. Their takeout menu is quick and convenient- they offer taco kits, where all the toppings and ingredients are separated and packaged. They also offer margarita mix to go too. Whether you want to spend a night out or take it home for movie night, Dos Santos keeps it convenient.
Ted’s Montana Grill
Lastly, we have Tobi’s (A.K.A my) personal favorite, Ted’s Montana Grill. This restaurant not only has mouth-watering food, but it also prides itself on sustainability and hospitality. Each location is a classic and cozy saloon-style environment. Everything from locally sourced produce to paper straws or two dollar bills- Ted’s Montana Grill won’t just provide you with a meal, but an experience as well. Have you ever had a bison-meat burger or bison nachos? Maybe it’s time to give them a try!
So much fun!
This was our second time coming here and we played the new vampire hunter room. The room was so interactive, full of fun puzzles and the story line was spooky. We had a great time ! Our game master Dakota was extremely helpful and created a fun atmosphere to our experience.
We will definitely be back to finish the other rooms!!

We had a great time in the Vampire Hunter room at EscapeWorks! The puzzles were a lot of fun, and the room was awesome. Plus, our Game Master Cole was great and very helpful! While we weren't the most accomplished vampire hunters, we had so much fun trying!

So much fun!! Went with a few friends and did the Egyptian Tomb themed room. It was definitely challenging, but not impossible, just hard enough that it was fun. Dakota helped us and made the experience amazing with an in depth story that made us feel like we were really in it. Would definitely recommend!!

I had a blast with my family! My game master was Harmony, and she was so much fun. She gave us hints exactly when we needed them, and left them as obscure as she could to make sure we still had to figure it out. Loved her, love this escape room!

This escape room was SO much fun! As someone who has done a number of escape rooms, this one tops the charts. The experience from booking to playing was so great and didn’t have problems with any of it. On top of it, the staff working were so great. Wyatt was so much fun and knows how to give his groups a 10/10 experience.

It was great, highly recommend!! We did the Speakeasy and Vampire Hunter rooms with 2 of us. The rooms had great production value, the puzzles were challenging but fun and achievable. The stories are cool and everything worked well. Our games masters were Will and Zeke. Both were fantastic and added lots to the fun of our experiences!! If we didn't live half way across the world we'd do all of their rooms.

This was my first time doing an escape room in a while and what a wonderful experience! Our gamemaster, Zeke, was attentive to our group and gave us a great brief and debrief. The room itself was sufficiently challenging and required a few "aha" moments but our group was able to complete it. Thanks again for the experience, I'll definitely be back (if I can find someone to drag with me).
