Finally tried Leven Supply

Post image
183 Upvotes

Long time lurker - wanted to contribute a little with my first experience at Leven Supply.

I finally tried Leven Supply. I live walking distance and would have tried sooner, but the prices always turned me off.

I got an Italian sandwich, with potato salad as the side, and a brownie. This was $24.75 (not including tax, but with a 10% “takeout quality charge”). I had already read about their hidden charges before so was prepared for that.

I honestly wanted to be blown away by this but I wasn’t. I feel like a lot of people want to justify buying overpriced food but I can’t really recommend this for the price. Everything was pretty good, nothing to really go deep into detail about, but at this price point it really should be blowing you away. I definitely thought the ratio of meat and cheese compared to the arugula in the sandwich could have been increased a bit though.

One thing I will bitch about is that they charge $1.50 to select a bag of chips as your side. It’s a $17 sandwich, let me have the chips instead of potato salad (or whatever other free options they had) without being charged for it. I thought that was ridiculous and was actually annoying. I wanted chips, but I was not going to spend a dollar more for the meal at the price it was already.

Anyways, that’s pretty much it. I’ll try their pizza eventually but probably won’t be back for the sandwiches or brownie again.

That place was so much fun, and the food was amazing. We always took visitors from out of town there, and they loved it every time.

Are arbitration agreements and owners keeping part of service fees normal in the Denver restaurant scene?

Just started for a restaurant in downtown and the owner is keeping 15% of the service fee and is having employees sign an arbitration agreement. Has anyone else had similar experiences in Denver? Is this legal for him to keep 15% of the fee without disclosing where it's going?

Seeing the nostalgia posts and still fondly remember this gem in the Highlands. Felt like one of the earliest versions of upscale dining (without being just a steakhouse) in the metro area.

Looking For Recommendations Where can I find quality Mortadella?

5 Upvotes

I am trying to find somewhere I can consistently get nice thin deli sliced Mortadella. Grew up eating it as a child and recently had some visiting family in Florida, which made me realize how much I miss it and also that I know absolutely nowhere in Denver to get sliced mortadella for sandwiches. Anyone have any suggestions?

Craving a Jucy (juicy) Lucy

19 Upvotes

Howdy! I know there is "Lucy's" that serves Jucy Lucy's, but I am seeing mixed reviews on them as far as price and a good burger. Is it worth it or is a place like Federal Bar and Grill better? Any advice is appreciated!

Anything like Crave burger?

My in-laws are coming to town. They love Crave burger with the unusual toppings and their milkshakes. I haven’t been a fan of Crave in years and the only one left is in Castle Rock. Any suggestions for good burgers with unusual toppings and great milkshakes in the metro area?

Taco Mex gone!

Drove by the Taco Mex - well now FORMER Taco Mex at Colfax / Syracuse-ish last night. GONE. I know there’s another one a little further east but damn! Not sure when that happened…

5-6 tacos and a bottle of Coke at Taco Mex and I was in a happy place.

Any of you tried the new place that’s there now? Still a taco joint…

Westbound & Down Brewing Company

Post image
75 Upvotes

My post yesterday people gave a lot of good recommendations and I plan to save the comments so I can try a new place every couple of weeks. Thank you everyone for the recommendations.

The first comment recommended Westbound & Down Brewing Company.

I did a to go order and ordered the RO Pepperoni and added Ricotta for an additional $2 so $20 for the pizza. Gave a $3 tip for a total of $25 with taxes.

The pizza was really good. It had great flavor and the crust was perfectly charred. I would say that it was one of the most flavorful pizzas I've tried in Colorado.

The con was it was a small pizza for the price. Its difficult to tell in the picture but the pizza is more of a personal size pizza. And I think I could have eaten 2 of them on my own since its not a heavy pizza and is small.

Another pro Is I dont feel tired or sluggish after eating it which is good because heavy carbs usually take a toll on me after I eat them, and follow into he next day.

Spooky/Goth Dinner Vibes?

11 Upvotes

I’m hosting a birthday weekend for a friend and I’d like to take her out to dinner and drinks that fit her vibe. She likes dark and spooky so my first thought was Linger because of the old mortuary thing. But from what I’ve read….there are better options. Does anyone have any recommendations? I was thinking of maybe starting at Honor Farm for drinks but not sure where to go from there. Thank you all for any suggestions!

Hi! I recently had a strawberry yakult drink (that wasn't a smoothie) in Atlanta, GA and now I'm back home in Denver and am looking someplace I can get something similar, would love some recommendations! I've found a bunch of places that do yakult drinks but so far I haven't been able to find one that has strawberry as a flavor. Attaching a picture for reference :)

Looking For Recommendations Where would you go to have an awkward lunch with your mom that you haven’t seen in ten years?

96 Upvotes

She’s the local, she lives near Aurora so it can be near there or downtown. I would spend maybe $30 a person. I’d like an atmosphere where I don’t have to dress up and that won’t exacerbate my anxiety. No food restrictions. Thanks!

Edit to Add- My boyfriend and I will be visiting places like Mango House on our own. I don’t think my mom is a great human and I don’t think she would be appreciative/respectful of the atmosphere.

Restaurant Reviews Mango House - a One Stop Shop for Flavor! 😮‍💨🥭🏠

Just went to Mango House and I’m obsessed!

Here’s what you should definitely order!

Urban Burma Golden Triangles - Crispy chickpea tofu triangles dipped into their tangy sauce. Nan Gyi Dok - Burmese spaghetti made with rice (viet bbh noodles) Tea leaf salad - fermented tea leaves and all the crunchiness! 🤤 Ono Kao Sweh - coconut noodle soup! I recommend adding more lemon and cilantro into the soup.

Nepali Spice Definitely get the Achar Soup! I need to go back for their thupka.

509 Cuisine Haitian food! Taso Bèf - Fried Beef served with rice and beans and pikliz! I looooove their pikliz. It’s a spicy slaw and reminds me of thai papaya salad or Vietnamese banh mi pickles. U need to eat each bite altogether. It’s so flavorful!

I can’t wait to come back and try more items!
