Rented Wendell’s out for a private family event & it was AMAZING! Really delightful team to work with & they had great ideas on menu. Many guests commented on how yummy the food was. Drinks & cocktails were exactly on point.

Kory and Josiah took the best care while dining.. service was unbelievable and the food and wine were right there as well! exstensive wine list. lol ask for the Jason Cab. enjoy by the water and mountain view.. The music accompaniment was i great taste.. very relaxing atmosphere. Ask for Kory as she is probably the best waitress ever and let Josiah be your tour guide!

Wendell’s is the best breakfast I have ever had the pleasure of eating. I live in California and stumbled upon this restaurant a couple years ago. The food was so magnificent that I planned a trip back to Colorado and ate breakfast at Wendell’s both days I was here. I cannot compliment this place enough! Casey, the owner and waitress is a champion at balancing all of the tables and keeping the service fast and personal. I would eat here every day if I could.

The cool location and the food were great. The pancakes are so yummy with a great texture and they have real syrup! There are no prices on the menu, so you don’t know how much you’re spending until you get the check.

My family and I absolutely LOVE this place! We make a point to stop here whenever we go to Denver. Even if it’s an hour out of our way, we HAVE to go! Best Gluten Free options by far! The staff is awesome, the atmosphere is rockin’, the libations are on point! We only wish they lived closer to us!! Will not ever miss a chance to stop by and have the greatest food EVER! Until next time Wendells – WE LOVE YOU

I won’t give it 5 stars because the service was really slow. They were super under-staffed, basically one waitress running the whole place (bar, inside, patio) and the poor thing seemed exasperated. They need to hire more people or plan their schedule better.

YUM, they aren’t lying when they say they have the best pancakes in Denver. I’m gluten free (I have celiacs disease) and they have almost everything on the menu is able to be made GF. I ordered the berry cream waffle with extra berries, and omg it was delicious. I also ordered an espresso martini and it was to die for, one of the best I’ve ever had. They are incredibly accommodating to families, and made it so easy to get whatever my kiddos wanted. We had gone on Father’s Day and everywhere was busy, I had called them a couple of times and wasn’t able to get through to anyone to make a reservation, so I emailed them, and right away the manager called me and emailed me back and was able to get us in! I was shocked as many places don’t even get back to you for days if you email. And they ensured that my family was able to make a reservation at the time we wanted, and greeted us right when we walked in saying they were sorry about the phones, and I was just so pleased with their hospitality and the service. You could tell that they knew a lot of the neighbors that come in often, and that made me so happy to see that a restaurant cares about their customers. They went above and beyond, and we will definitely be back! Thank you all so much

I don’t get the rave reviews. It was ok. There’s no prices on the menu and if you ask, you just get eye rolls and a generic answer of “$13-15”, but my food was 17ish. The service was slow. I get it, it’s weekend brunch, but while we were waiting there were 8 empty tables waiting to be cleared and the bartender is also the host so you have to wait for him to finish a round of drinks before you are seated. Not worth the wait and there’s plenty of other places to go nearby.
