Village Inn

It's a Village Inn.
Comfy place to hang out while waiting for check-in time at our nearby hotel.
I wanted (needed) a small salad, so I ordered the combination soup & garden salad.
It was just okay, not the best.
Iceberg lettuce.
Tomatoes were mushy and had tough skins, but it's hard to get good tomatoes.
Husband ate a big breakfast, eggs, hash browns, pancakes, sausage and bacon.
I gave him half of my green chili to top his eggs.
The chili was spicy, we like it that way, but flavor was just okay.
Too much cornstarch or something, kind of "gelly".
However, our server was attentive and nice.

Stopped in this morning.
The food and service from our server was great.
The hostess on the other hand needs to take a course in customer service.
From the moment we walked in, this little girl looked like she hated her job.
When she was checking us out, she didn’t say a word.
Not a “how was everything” or even reiterating the total.
She just sat there with a stank face like she had a problem which is weird being that she was joking it up with other patrons.
Nevertheless, I still enjoyed my meal and our server was sweet.
I didn’t get her name but she was a young girl with hand tattoos.

Found the last remaining Village Inn in CO and this one has my favorite menu item resurrected, the Chopped Steak. Have always loved this dish and a few years back, they took it out of the menu and thus ended my craving for Village Inn. So glad, this was in their menu. This Village Inn is very near/on the way (Tower Rd) to the Denver International Airport (DIA) and surrounded by numerous hotels so, I guess this branch survived the closure of most Village Inns. The Chopped Steak was as I love it with a slight difference, the steak presentation is more like a Salisbury steak versus the former version of chopped/chunks smothered in gravy. Still, I love it! My husband was just ok with his pancake thus, the 4-⭐ rating. It's still the signature VI decor and color scheme with their pies. We visited around 2pm on a weekend but, seated immediately. Service was quick and pleasant. Ample free parking. Will definitely be back. ETC : Good food stop for travelers to and from DIA (Denver International Airport). #1 it's on the way via Tower Rd. #2 Prices for filling food vs airport
