Food was amazing 9/10
YOU NEED TO TRY THE FRIED PLANTAINS. If you like Dave's hot chicken, you'll like these. The batter reminds me of the seasonings from Dave's hot chicken.
Also, macaroni, biscuits, mash potatoes was
Overall a must try!!Helpful 0Thanks 0Love this 0Oh no 0 - 13871319Jun 2, 20241 check-in
Really nice spot for dinner, with super attentive and friendly service and a cozy vibe. My dinner buddy and I shared the peppers five ways, the 1/2 lb short rib, the chorizo jambalaya rice n beans, and the brussels + butternut squash hash.
The rice n beans and the brussels hash were honestly sleeper hits. Was not expecting those to be the stars of the show.
Short rib was tender but not as juicy as I was hoping. Peppers five ways were definitely interesting and a nice way to start.
Everything came out super quickly despite there being a nearly full house. Would definitely try more if I find myself in the area again!Helpful 0Thanks 1Love this 0Oh no 0 - 6664581307Apr 29, 2024
Came here on a weekend with a few friends. Made a reservation a couple days before. We do have a friend with celiac disease so it was important to find a restaurant with options that she can eat.
The food was out of this world. The sides were all shareable, so I recommend a few sides and then get a meat individually. The outstanding items were the mac and cheese and the biscuits! The chicken was also cooked very well.
I did take off one star because of the crowding. This place was packed it was insanely hot in the middle of February. You could see the waiters struggling to maneuver around people. Also, because it is a small space filled with people it is very loud. Next time I will request to sit outside.
Overall 4/5 stars!Helpful 2Thanks 2Love this 4Oh no 0 - Aug 11, 20241 check-in
Came at 5 pm on a Wednesday for early dinner and there was no wait. I tried a cucumber mint limeade with gin, then my boyfriend and I shared the jalapeño cornbread muffins, massive attack salad, 1/4 lb coriander roasted Colorado lamb and chickpea croquettes. Everything was pretty tasty and it was more than enough food for the two of us!

My son & I went here for happy hour. The staff was very friendly. We sat at the bar & had the most delightful bartender who absolutely LOVES his job.
We ordered. Everything on the happy hour menu. The food is delicious! Everything on the happy hour menu was great.Helpful 0Thanks 0Love this 0Oh no 0 - Jul 26, 2024
From the moment we sat down till we closed out, service was personable and timely (especially impressive amidst the bustling atmosphere). Every dish inspired awe and was so flavorful; my favorite was the shrimp & grits, but the mac & cheese, pork carnitas, and roasted lamb were all amazing. Can't wait to return!

It was our first time here so we went pretty hard! We ordered a lot for the table just to try as much as possible, and had a ton of leftovers. Our waitress was great and checked on us throughout to make sure everything was OK. The restaurant is pretty small so they do communal dining to optimize space--we were at a six person table with another couple.
To start, we ordered the empanadas and the lamb stew. The lamb stew was unique, you eat it with chips, and I liked the flavors. The empanadas were my favorite though, I literally could've eaten a bunch for dinner and just called it a night.
For our entrées, we got one of the trout, and the braised short rib. It seemed obvious to me that the fish would be a whole fish, but just in case, please note that this bitch does have a face still attached. Lol. Honestly, both of our favorite part of the meal were the sides, we got mac & cheese, brussels sprouts and sweet potatoes, and a caramelized onion/greens side. The mac & cheese was insane, another thing I could've eaten for dinner on its own. But the vegetable dishes did not disappoint either!
Apparently, they have a great happy hour, I would like to go back and experience that! I got one cocktail and I like that you can pick which spirit goes in-- I got the cucumber mint lemonade, and ordered it with rum.Helpful 0Thanks 0Love this 0Oh no 0 - Feb 1, 2024
Great BBQ palce! Friendly staff, communal seating, lively place. We got lucky, got a seating next to the kitchen, and we were offered some amazing samples from the chef (lamb and croquettes).
I normally hate lamb, but I want to order it next time! We decided to get brisket and chicken, with sides of mashed potatoes with bacon and goat cheese and seasonal veggies. Everything was absolutely great.
The potatoes surprised us with strong smokiness. We finished with a blueberry cobbler, and it was amazing, too. There are no reservations, so it makes sense to come earlier, get your name on the list, and grab a drink on the opposite side of the street, depending on the time you have. Most of the menu if gluten free.Helpful 3Thanks 1Love this 2Oh no 0 - Oct 9, 2023Updated review
Had a nice meal at Work & Class the other night. Gotta love Dana Rodriguez, the owner/chef. She's passionate, talented and so hard-working, as is her staff. I can only hope that her newest venture (at Casa Bonita!) works out well for her.
Had a chance to go to a tasting meal at W&C the other night and it was a fun, and good to very good experience. Some of the dishes were great (I'm talking to you Fig Tart, to you Ms. Massive Attack salad, and to you, Cajun Shrimp/Grits. Others were good (the Lamb and the Blueberry Cobbler).
Fairly priced wine and drinks menu (loved the pineapple and jalapeno margarita).
All in all a good time was had by everyone. The place has been around now for a long time and deserves a spot on your list of fun and well done places to go.Helpful 3Thanks 0Love this 1Oh no 0Aug 18, 2014Previous reviewFinally got to get in to Work & Class without being told that the wait time was over 1/2 hour. Went with some other W/C virgins (who also don't have any work or class;) and we all really enjoyed it.
Started with a Pimm's Cup (my new favorite semi-light-aperitivo-esque kinda summer cocktail) and loved it. Followed that up with splitting the $14 (gulp) Pepper Five Ways appetizer, and glad I splurged. My buddy and I really liked the jam, the shishitos and the bacon wrapped jalapenos. And the (peck 'a:) pickled peppers worked as a good set-off to the spiciness of the jalapenos. My baby, who had the Massive Attack Salad with her girly-friend loved it. But what really stood out was the Coriander Grilled Lamb done exactly as ordered (med. rare). Simply bursting with rich flavor and juiciness, everyone who ordered it raved: A spectacularly simple and elegant hunk-a-chunk-a grilled lamb. Will definitely order it again.
Shared the Butterscotch Pudding and Chocolate Bread Pudding for dessert. Both were very good, but not as mind-blowing as the dinner-in-chief.
Bottom line: If you can get a table without having to wait for too long (they don't take rezzies), then absolutely go and enjoy. The patio's a great place for a summer meal, and the folks who ran the place were truly sweet and efficient. - Nov 29, 2023
I can't even explain how amazing of a dining experience we had at Work & Class! Jam packed on a Friday night, I figured we'd try our luck at walking up and snagging a table for 2. I was mentally prepared for a long wait, but to my surprise "we have a table available now" was spoken from the hostess!
Our waiter was phenomenal, and thoroughly explained the dining process and gave some recommendations!
Every bite was incredible, but the star of the show for us was the shrimp and grits!
My wife, who does not eat grits agreed that it was the best dish of our trip to Colorado!Helpful 0Thanks 0Love this 0Oh no 0
