Mountain Shadows Restaurant - Brunch restaurant in Colorado Springs - 2223 Colorado Ave, USA

Found this place while traveling! What a great place. The food was excellent! We had breakfast, and their green chilies had true southwestern taste. The cinnamon rolls are insane. Staff was great. When I visit family here again. Definitely a go to!

One of our go to spots. Cinnamon rolls are so delicious but, you better get there early before they are gone. Chicken fried steak and eggs is no disappointment either (my go to). Country biscuit is real good as well, matter of fact, I heard it being ordered like 4 times when we were there. Roast beef sandwich is so delicious, my wife is a picky eater and she loves it. BLT turkey wrap with fries is delicious as well. Just remember, this food is cooked to order so have patients.

Truly love this place. I've been coming here for years and I always find myself coming back for a yummy homestyle breakfast. The green chili is wonderful, they have the best Irish Coffee of any spot in the city, and the service is always friendly. You can't go wrong with anything on the menu- from homemade green chili, biscuits, chocolate chip pancakes, and cinnamon rolls bigger than your head its always a delicious meal. The price for the food is spot on and I always love being here even when it's packed full. Be sure to get a spot super early especially during tourist season. It's true, this is where the locals eat and its worth it!

After parking on the street, walk in and wait to be seated, at this quaint blue house with wooden floors below tables surrounded by black metal chairs that have wooden seats (close to the floor grain) in Old Colorado City. The white textured walls with gray baseboards, doorframes and window trim, all look freshly painted and are adorned with fun signs: "What if the hokey pokey is what it's all about?" and "I love you more than bacon." Children's menus are available, along with black and wooden highchairs. On the table you will find a metal basket containing syrup, real sugar and sugar alternatives, ketchup, Cholula, salt and pepper. The sink area in the bathroom would use a face-lift, but I love the fun faucet placement (in the corner). The women's bathroom afords two stalls and a changing station; though it is a little tight getting around the carts that home outside the restrooms. A lot of natural light comes in through the bathroom windows and ADA bars are found in the first stall. Our waitress Sarah was wearing a tank that said "Where the L♡cals Eat" ....you pay your server at the table, after a handwritten ticket is presented. From crispy bacon to their well known cinnamon rolls (not as sweet as most cinnamon rolls and big enough to share), go on by with the family, on a date or to enjoy a meal in the corner with a good book.

Very nice cozy local b-fast spot. We stopped for breakfast after reading lots of reviews and it was a perfect choice. Service was quick and pleasant. Food was delicious and very affordable.

My husband and I stopped in for breakfast while in town and were very pleased. It was apparent that it was a locals kind of place which we love. I ordered the breakfast burrito covered in green chili. The burrito was awesome, but the hash browns could have been fried a little longer my husband had the alamonza omelet which he said was very good. It came with a side of homemade strawberry jam which was incredible. Service was outstanding and the ambiance was very cozy and welcoming. It had lots of fun signs to read. You should give it a try.

Absolutely fantastic breakfast and overwhelmed by the quality and supply of food for the cost . I added phptos of the aftermath for context. Actually regretted my order at first because I didn't expect the portions as large as they were. Mistakenly ordered extra bacon too. The breakfast burrito was great, recommend getting the chorizo and hot chili. It was fat and overstuffed and came with a whole nother tortilla I didn't even touch because I was full. My only negative comment is the hash browns, but it is a perspective thing. I grew up eating Waffle House and having practically deep fried potatoes with illegal amount of grease. So they aren't bad, just not what I was expecting and that's ok. There's enough calories on the plate, I don't need another 600 in oil. This has got to be in my top breakfast places I've ever been. I'm actually struggling to name one that isn't grandmaw making me French toast.

The place is DISGUSTING. It is dirty and probably you going to be leaving the place with some disease. Hostess was very rude when I wanted to order food and no waitress came to our table for about long time. The only person I could see was as the hostess and I ordered my food with her only for her to be rude saying she was not a waitress and she does not take orders that I should find a waitress and order with her. Didn’t even offered to get the waitress for us. Seriously disgusting place and it looks like it hasn’t been clean for YEARS. And being right by a morgue we should expect that this place should be super clean and tidy. But NO. Sanitation should be paying them a visit, if they go there, the place probably gonna be out of business.
