Overall: 3.4 | We picked View House for brunch this week because we wanted to watch the Denver Broncos play the Indianapolis Colts (sadly, Denver lost). We ended up staying at View House for probably five or six hours, so in that regard I give them props for allowing the patrons to stay seated and watch the games while eating and drinking all day. View House had set out a bunch of flat screens up on the enclosed patio, which allowed us to watch the game while still getting an excellent view of the city. As far as ambiance is concerned, View House was exactly what we wanted!

Food: 3.8 | While they did not have much in regards to selection, everything they did serve was pretty good. I was personally very impressed with the breakfast tacos (pictured) that I ordered, as they were delicious.

Drinks: 3.2 | Good selection, good drinks (they are a bar after all). We drank our unlimited mimosas until the time limit expired, and then moved on to beer and other cocktails to finish off the games.

Service: 3.3 | Considering how packed the building was, I was pretty impressed with our waitress. She even snuck in a last round of mimosas the minute before our time expired!

Ambiance: 3.8 | As I mentioned earlier, the ambiance was perfect for what we were looking for (brunch, view, and a place to watch the games). I’m sure that on other weekends it would be nice there as well, though it does feel a little more like a bar than a restaurant (but perhaps that’s just subconscious memory from so many nights spent there…).

Value: 2.9 | Though they had unlimited mimosas, they were limited by time and weren’t particularly cheap. The food was a little pricy, as were the drinks. Nothing terrible, but not the winning aspect either.
