We went for brunch. The atmosphere is classy like a whiskey bar. The bathrooms are funky! Staff friendly and knowledgeable. Food was delicious and full of flavor. We got their waffle (half order), churro French toast (half order), their eggs Benedict (scrambled eggs instead of poached), and the non alcoholic mule. Everything was to die for (see what I did there- it’s an old mortuary). We did have reservations and I highly recommend it, especially for dinner and brunch. We recently visited Linger for lunch and were very pleased with the experience. We arrived on time for our reservation and were immediately greeted by a gracious host. The venue lots of history- it was a mortuary for over 90 years and is said to have held the remains of Buffalo Bill. . There was a great selection of drinks available, including a variety of wines and beers. Our table ordered the Pad Thai and the lobster roll with honey and chili fries. Both entrees were excellent, though the honey and chili fries were a bit too sweet for my personal taste. Our server, Benji, was extremely professional and offered attentive service throughout our meal. We would highly recommend this restaurant for a delightful dining experience. The vibe inside is dark, warm and cozy. Our server was great, kind and attentive. The bai buns are really good, my favorite thing I ate. The bulgogi tacos were good, a little dry and salty. Overall a fun spot and they offer a range of options.

Lingers great they have always been a top tier restaurant and I’ve been here several times over the years. Today i came with a good friend to was visiting town and wanted to catch up over happy hour. They have very specific rules about their happy hour especially in the roof top. You have to sit in the blue table section and you must walk up to order your food and drinks to the bus bar. We had two margaritas my friend got the classic and i got the seasonal one which had a salted foam along with pepper i asked for a tajin rim it was delicious i had two during my visit. We also ordered the hot honey sweet potato fries and the smashed wagyu sliders. The fries were fantastic i asked for a side of ranch to dip them in and i was extremely happy with them. The sliders were good nothing out of this world but they were tasty. Linger use to have one of the best views of the downtown Denver skyline until the new apartment buildings took that away from them. It’s still decent but definitely not as good. Over all i was happy coming here and I’d gladly come again. Just an fyi this place is in the pricier side but worth it here and there mainly for the atmosphere and littleman icecream next door afterwords!

Tried Linger for the first time during happy hour on a Wednesday and will definitely be back! We ordered a lot of small plates that were part of the happy hour. The only dish that we ordered that wasn't part of the happy hour was the Bombay nachos. However, I highly recommend ordering it. It was a 10/10. My other favorite was the spring rolls with the two dipping sauces. One sauce had a little spiciness to it that was a perfect balance to the other sauce. All food was tasty and I loved the sauces each one had. The warm donuts we had for dessert were amazing as well. Drinks are a bit pricey, but if you go for happy hour, definitely try the margarita. The staff was great. Everyone was friendly. The gentleman who took us to our table was very helpful with my parking situation. As we were getting seated, I was still trying to figure out how to pay for street parking through this app that i had to download to pay for parking, but i needed the parking meter #. It gave me suggestions based on my location, but I wasn't sure which one to select. When I asked him about it, he wasn't sure either, and without hesitation, he just walked outside across the street and got the # for me. I am grateful for him going above and beyond in this situation.
