WOW - Edit
Where has this restaurant been all my life!!? Why when I look for Vegan restaurants - does this fabulous place NOT pop up on my phone ??? I accidently saw a segment on CO. & Company - featuring them making their Reuben Sandwich. We got over to Glady's as fast as possible. The French fries are some of the best I have ever had - and we make it our business to taste a lot of fries around the globe, just watch the salt please. The savory funnel cake with tomato, peach topping is out of this world, fantastic. The Gnocchi is amazing. As is the Garlic toast, squash small plate, cookies and their signature sandwiches. I will go back as often as possible, it is a drive for us, but worth it!! Highly recommend this great all plant based restaurant.

Best in Denver - Edit
My absolute favorite in Denver metro — fantastically plant forward. Their new space has great vibes and has allowed them to expand their offerings in a great way, particularly with all the tasty small plates.

Top Vegan Spot in Denver - Edit
This place does it right. They moved from the counter walk up location into a nicer seated dining area which is an upgrade. You can tell they put thought and care into the menu and use quality ingredients. Definitely one of the best vegan restaurants around.

Incredible! - Edit
They now have a seated dining experience in another section of edgewater market. Every dish we tried was delicious and service was great. Don’t sleep on the gnocchi and the strawberry rhubarb cake.

The best restaurant in Denver. - Edit
Today was the reopening in the old Metaburger location. The sit-down area of the restaurant is very nice, with a bar and tables. The service was great. The menu expansion seems fantastic.

Long time fan of Gladys. Everything is so creative and always delicious. New location has expanded the menu to add some delicious sandwiches plus more. Go here immediately. Ordered the garden dip, Greg burger, crunchy cabbage and potato croquettes..everything was phenomenal.

Mind blowing - Edit
Update: Gladys now has seating and an expanded menu. All the food was wonderful as always, the garlic bread we had as an app was especially exceptional. They have also added a few n/a drinks, kombucha, etc. Remains my favorite restaurant of all time, now it's somehow even a little bit better.
Read moreBeen to Gladys several times. Absolutely spectacular every time. Had fried brussel sprouts last time that are easily one of the best things I've had anywhere. You won't go away stuffed but your taste buds will thank you! Amazing food!

Possibly my favorite restaurant in Denver. Everything is vegan (I think, they might occasionally have dairy options). Changing menu, great food, and the desserts are so good too!

Unique dishes executed perfectly! - Edit
I might have to say this is the best food I’ve had in years! We came here 3 times in 2 days during our trip to Denver. We ordered the Reuben and the risotto all three times, and also had the sweet pea toast once. The Reuben and risotto are the best I’ve ever had. I’ve never heard of celery root being used as a meat substitute before, so I was very surprised how well it worked when trying it. The sweet pea toast was also very good, the produce they use is incredibly fresh.

Might be the best in Denver - Edit
Delicious, creative and plant forward vegan food in Sloans Lake. Pretty reasonable prices, and rotating menu with the seasons. Some favorites are the mushroom risotto, Ruben, and chocolate chip cookies. You can’t go wrong with Gladys!

Excellent vegetable focused food. Not a faux meat centered menu trying to appeal to the masses. Just good cooking from a talented bunch. 11/10

Upscale food at a food court - Edit
The food quality is unreal. Something you'd find at a high end restaurant, but at food court prices. It's made up for by the portion sizes being a bit small compared to other restaurants. The reuben is an anchor on the menu, and a unique vegan food experience I'd recommend to any visitors.
Read moreIt's in the edgewater foodcourt, and I frequently hold meetups here just to be able to get food from Gladys. There isn't much quiet seating, so perhaps not the best spot if you want a more private romantic evening.
Pros: Food/ingredient quality, Presentation, Seasonal menu
Cons: Small portions, Noisy

Great spot - Edit
This restaurant is one of many in a dinning hall/public market setting. The restaurants were around the perimeter of a seating area with nice picnic benches. You order at the counter and they give you a beeper. I ordered the charred Caesar and mushroom risotto. Both were SO GOOD! I love the crunchiness and saltiness of the Caesar. The risotto was creamy and flavorful. I also liked that the dining area had a water spout with glasses. Good mix of all kind of people and even families with young kids! Great space and amazing vegan food!

Very creative dishes - Edit
Like others have said it is in a market place but we found Gladys and had to try it. Suggestion is to get a beer at the brewery and they let us even have our dog on the patio. But the food was insanely creative. Thank you for providing us with another fun vegan option!

How so good??? - Edit
The menu online looked good so we decided to come out here without knowing the area at all. We didn’t realize it was in a food court and were a little worried we had made a mistake. But we ordered the summer spinach salad, tofu piccata and nduja toast, and it was all so good. The toast was one of the more creative veggie toasts I’ve had—lupini beans, fennel and romesco, so yum. I highly recommend. Think we might want to try the Reuben next time.
Read moreEdit: Came back to try the root veggie Reuben, and it was delicious ! We also enjoyed the charred Caesar and braised tofu with hatch chili gravy (new fave).
