Can't Go Wrong

by MirandaB

I have enjoyed many sausage gravy and biscuit plates, but nothing has compared to what Dozens serves up. The coffee is so good, better than anything around. The casual atmosphere reminds me of my favorite restaurant back home. The service has always been top notch. And the key to enjoying all of this is knowing the best times to go!

• Pros: Parking, Patio, Perfection
• Cons: None

Great place with a long history

by thejohne

When folks can just write whatever they want anonymously. What is the value?

Dozens has been in the Golden Triangle for over 22 years. Won more "Best of Denvers" and "Top of the Towns" than several other restaurants combined. Dozens is a Zagat rated restaurant. It was featured in Sunset magazine twice and the United Inflight magazine. Every Governor since Romer, every Mayor since Pena and every DA since Norm Early has dined there. The DNC host committee (yes that's right DEMOCRATS) Held a meeting there every Thursday in advance of the convention.

I apologize if someone was offended by an distracted employee. We don't have Spanish themed entrees (it is a California based egg concept from the early eighties with a French flair). True we still run a wait on the weekends (even in this economy) and that may be hard for some. We only lightly season our food. It is "breakfast" and we provide quite an assortment of condiments to liven it up if you like. If we are on a 30 min wait, it's not gonna be cool to dash some late arriving and unaccounted for friends to your two seat table, try to brow beat the host into submission and then make up some fictional story about the chain of events.

Regarding children. I have two of my own. My wife was a nanny for many years before we married. I like kids. Dozens is a business, in a business and very mature market. Businesses cater to their market. Children are welcome at Dozens and if it's slow they may even get a little extra attention. Fact is though, it's not really that kind of place. Nothing personal, just a fact. If you go to Dozens in Aurora (very family neighborhood) you'll find lot's of amenities for children.

I thank all the tens of thousands of folks (adults and children) who have dined at Dozens over the years. We rarely get a complaint. Many think it's the best breakfast in town.

This is not anonymous. You know who this is and I stand by it.

See you for Breakfast,

Johne

• Pros: Fresh and fast. Top quality ingredients. Best scrambled eggs
• Cons: I'm biased

Terribly rude staff was a turn off

by cburg0

We were seated and ignored by wait staff for 20 minutes. The waitress serving the adjacent table would not acknowledge our existence even though she was 2 feet away with her back to us. When we finally asked this same waitress if we could get some coffee she rudely replied that she wasn't our waitress and walked away. A little friendly aknowledgment is all we wanted and any decent restaurant knows this. Is it too much to ask that staff notice you, smile, and say I'll let your server know you are seated? We won't go back again.
