How this is written: we run the full set of recent Google reviews through AI to pull out what guests consistently say — including the complaints, which is why there's a downsides list rather than only the good bits. It's rewritten as new reviews come in, so it describes the hotel as it is now, not as it was whenever someone last got round to writing a paragraph about it.

Great new Work & Class in Englewood with shareable plates. Beef Short Rib and Salmon were excellent, the 1/4 portion is pretty good sized. Also, loved the cauliflower app, and the goat cheese mashed potatoes are a must. Good service, but busy and pretty loud, more of a city style atmosphere. Give it try!

We’ve been for brunch twice, food is just as great as the RiNo location! Attentive servers and upscale buildout without being stuffy. Avocado tostada and chilaquiles are standout brunch dishes.

Went for the first time during restaurant week. Service was a little too good at first, with 3 different people checking in within the first few minutes. Placed an order right away and salad came out quick. Huge salad with tempura broccoli, asparagus, and great flavor. After that we were very impressed and excited for the mains. It took over an hour for anything else to come out. They finally checked back in after about 40 minutes and apologized for the wait. The rest of our dishes arrived together, but nothing was as good as the salad. It was all fine but they serve each thing in its own little dish, so the tiny pile of lamb or little dish of mashed potatoes looks a bit sad. Flavors were fine, but nothing I would bother coming back for.

What a fun new place in Englewood. Everything was tasty. Wish I would have got a Pic of the butterscotch taster. Will be back soon.
