    The Rockfish was a tasty explosion in my mouth! Hands down the best entree I have had at the top restaurants in Denver! The arepa was amazing as well. It was a deconstructed presentation, and so flavorful!

    My family & I had a marvelous brunch at Linger before our matinee of A Christmas Carol. The food was excellent. Eating gluten free and dairy free can limit our choices; it was wonderful to have a range of tasty choices. We tried the cashew queso & chips (everyone enjoyed). I had the lobster rolls, which had large chunks of lobster with crunchy vegetables. My husband had the make-your-own breakfast plate which he thoroughly enjoyed. My son had the chicken & waffles (not GF); and he too was very satisfied. Service was great; thank you, Xander! We will be back.
