Bland food okay drinks and lukewarm fish very average fried chicken that was dry and tiramisu tasted half frozen. Over 100 for 2 people. Place looks expensive but doesn't back it up in quality. I regret my choice to try this place.

I am shocked at all of the positive reviews for Till. I hate to leave a bad review for a small business but the food was unacceptably bad. Maybe the chef was having an off day but this restaurant must change their standards for food quality - even at a cheaper price the food would be unacceptable. We were ordered several items on the menu and most were bland and missed the mark.For a family of four, we spent $250 on four entrees, bread service, side salad, and three glasses of wine. Two of the entrees we ordered were the steak frites. I have never had such a bad steak in my life - zero flavor as if it hadn’t been seasoned or even in the same room as a jar of salt or seasoning. Adding salt at the table did nothing. It came out pre-sliced, grey and cooked to death (I had ordered it cooked to medium). The fries were soggy and oily.The Caesar salad was made with soggy lettuce. The bread was dry and stale. Almost all entrees completely missed the mark on appropriate levels of seasoning and balance. The fried chicken was overly sweet and the side of mac and cheese was bland and cheeseless.The seafood pasta was the best entree we ordered - had the most flavor and was seasoned well, but the sauce was watery.The amuse bouche of vichyssoise was thick like eating solid butter or heavy cream.The quality of the food overall completely missed the mark and I’m not sure why there are so many good reviews. Another observation was that most of the pre-made take home food items in the fridge up front were several days old. I hope the food quality improves but for now I would not recommend!

Went there for dinner. The food was very tasty. The drinks are also very good. There aren’t many vegetarian options on the menu as far as entrees are concerned, but there are a number of vegetarian friendly appetizers. They are pretty accommodating and interested in dietary restrictions and allergies. The service is very good. Their desserts are the best part!

Great food! Seriously really good. Appetizers were fantastic and the mains were perfect. Service was good but the drinks were a little slow. Even ordering a bottle of wine seemed to take a long time and arrived halfway through our mains. Ambiance... it is ok. Some spots are better than others. We were placed by a large garage door that was closed from the patio during the cooler evening. It was also on the direct path the restrooms. Would have preferred something by the fireplace or the other room. Over all a good meal and I will be back. (Hopefully to sit in a better location!)

My friend reserved a table last night for an early dinner (5pm). The waitress was a doll and the ambiance was great. The food, a bit on the expensive side for what you get. I ordered the maine lobster ravioli for $24 and I got 3 ravioli! I’d say they should at least serve 6! They were very good, but the size was designed for an elf??‍♀️What I really didn’t like was the check in the end. The problem was not that they charged us with extra dishes we didn’t order (beef stroganoff and some shrimp- maybe that’s a common mistake, so make sure to read your check);the problem was that I saw a PIF charge in the end of the ticket (right before the tax) and when I asked what was it and I researched about it, I didn’t agree to pay it. The Till doesn’t even let you know about this charge in advance, they just charge it. Many people just pay their checks without even reading them. This fee is not imposed by the City or the Government, and it’s not a tax. This is a private fee imposed by the landlord for business improvements. The Till should have a sign or something letting their customers know about this charge before they even sit. So, bottom line, if they want to improve their patio, sidewalk or the building, customers are paying for it. Plus you pay the tax, plus you pay the tip. And I got charged $24 for 3 ravioli. What a business!PD. I asked the waitress to remove the PIF charge and she gracefully did. I didn’t pay it. Excellent service on her side.

Saturday night dinner at Till was a lovely experience. It's a little bit weird to find-through the gate, down the alley and up the ramp. Enter through the market where there is an amazing array of desserts (plus more on the menu). The menu is carefully curated and there is a very well priced four course meal option. We did ala carte. The kitchen accommodated my allergy request and was very helpful in making suggestions. Started with the bread service and honey butter - soft pillowy rosemary scented goodness and crusty brown bread. Yum Hubby had the shrimp carbonara and I had the king salmon. Perfectly cooked and smothered in a delightful peach compote. Could not have asked for a better dish. Service was attentive and lovely. Parking is on the street so you might end up walking a block or so on a busy night. We had sorbet for dessert- strawberry lemonade lavender. Strong flavor and a creamy consistency. Nice quiet date night place to go for a little talking and flirting.

We had the best service ever! Nolan, our server, was attentive, and friendly. Took very good care of us. Emilio, the GM, was also attentive and friendly and came over to introduce himself ask a little about us. Sent over our choice of desert. Amazing time for our date night! We'll be back! ❤️

We really enjoyed our experience at the Till! Delicious drinks (Colorado sunset) and appetizers (mussels and grilled artichokes). Special shout out to Amelia for superb service. And always, the atmosphere is lovely (hopefully you can get the window fixed soon ouch!).Kid-friendliness: The kids menu is simple, but the food is perfect, affordable and delicious. My kid loved his burger and fries. He got crayons and something to color, too.

Only bad thing was that we got a parking ticket on Wednesday night after being 3 minutes late to the meter. Have to say that did put a damper on our night. Due to this we probably won’t be returning as its not the restaurants fault.The city even charges a fee to pay over the phone and online :)

Our server didn't say hi hello or my name is. Our server put her finger up in my face to stop me from asking her a question. Our server ignored me when I asked her about something on the menu. Our server slammed down regular water when I said we need other bottled water. Our food was okay nothing to brag about I will never return to that restaurant. I own a restaurant in this city and I would never never give the service that she gave to us it was horrible. I would not recommend this restaurant. Atmosphere is nice though everyone else besides our server were very nice. I can't even tell you her name because she didn't give it Long blonde hair. Never again. Omg never again

Super disappointed with the service. After a few good to go experiences I brought the whole family for dinner a week before Christmas. The service was the worst any of us have ever had. It was not busy but our waiter and other servers couldn't be bothered to quickly fill drinks, ask if we wanted another when we were empty, take away empty plates and glasses. We spent over half the dinner looking at each other like what is going on because there were giant gaps in visits to the table. Initial drinks took 15 minutes, there was one GM working as bartender but he was nowhere to be found most of the night. We asked him once for our wine that had been opened and left to breathe on the bar, only to be forgotten by our server when we were ready for glasses. Instead of just pouring our glasses he got the waiter who then took another 5 minutes to get to us. This was completely unacceptable for a group paying well over 1000 dollars for a meal. I blame the GM Emilio for being absent and not even looking at the table or checking with us. I told the waiter how unhappy we were and that we wanted to cancel dessert and last drinks so we could just leave, but they brought all that stuff instead of a check, 10 minutes later. I will never be back and will tell everyone how bad this experience was.

Wow!!! Got a lot of delicious food, we got the cast iron cornbread, oysters, bread and fries. Hard to choose just one favorite. I had a coupon for a free app which got us in the door but unfortunately forgot to use it because I was so focused on the amazing food. We will be back!The server from West Palm Beach (I can’t remember his name) was fantastic! So friendly, professional and attentive. Great experience

We love going to GoG and Till but recently they started charging Public Improvement Fee (PIF) which is an extra charge they choose to voluntarily put on their customers. Till owns their land and building. This is an unnecessary charge and business owners are being greedy. Be aware of businesses doing this in COS. We will be avoiding.
