We have had our waitress, Ariel, twice. She was fantastic both times. The food was delicious, the cocktails were on point. Get the Bartenders Choice. Never disappoints! Well definitely be coming back here.

Seems great for a group looking to hang out. But I wouldnt recommend for a quiet sit down. Theres constant music and noise. Food was excellent.

My review is based on a single visit.My server Reagan was awesome, very friendly and attentive.I ordered the huevos rancheros, even though I dont expect much from huevos rancheros when its not at an actual Mexican restaurant. They dont include beans but I was pleasantly surprised at the flavor of their green chili and with the chorizo they use. My only issue was the unimpressive potatoes. Just diced and deep-fried potatoes without much seasoning. I would like to see them do something different with their potatoes. Ill try the hash browns next time.Ill leave with this hoping that the owner sees the review: I think plenty of people rely on the menu posted here on Google maps, so sometimes its a surprise when you get to the restaurant and the prices are higher, In this case some items were 30% higher in price. With all that we do online, it would be nice to see restaurant operators ensure that the online representation of their restaurant is accurate.That being said, I enjoyed my short visit and I will be back.

I remember Freds and Rogers, my mom worked for both of them. She was a waitress. I was a young teen, 13 y.o. even now I answer my cell, Freds bar and grill or at times Rogers Bar. Such good times.

Love love love this place! You cant go wrong with anything on the menu. Helps to get reservations as it fills up quick. Parking can be a bit tricky to find on busy evenings but still so worth it. Highly recommend.

Kayla was amazing and so was the food and drinks! I wasnt sure what to order because I wanted everything it looked so delicious but Kayla had amazing recommendations for both food and drink! She really made the experience at 503W memorable! I will definitely be coming back and requesting her service!

I think you guys have some of the best Korean tacos to be eaten anywhere, even and especially delivered; the Korean seasoned sweet potato fries are spectacular and made for a fantastic flavorful comfort food experience. Wow. Taste buds super happy. You rock ️A #musteat in the Springs

I love this place. There are some interesting combinations, but they are always amazing. The nitro short ribs are to die for. The staff is usually very friendly. The atmosphere reminds me a lot of being in New York City.I take all my out of town guests here. If you are visiting, or haven’t been you outta check it out.

Delicious food and pretty good service. The waitress wasnt wearing her mask correctly, but like 50% of the people in Colorado Springs werent either so I cant really blame her. I wish they had more of a non-alcoholic beverage selection, there isnt even a section for it on the menu.

Not only was the food fantastic, so was the service! I had the maple bacon sriracha chicken & waffle and it was to die for! So yummy. The biscuits & gravy are some of the best I’ve ever had...very unique compared to most places. Parking is a bit tricky depending on what time you go, but it’s so worth the hassle.

There has to be real chefs running this place right? Everything on the menu was appealing and everything we ordered was above expectations, from appetizer through desert.The wait staff was awesome also. I would 100% recommend 503W to anyone in the Colorado Springs area.

Started out bumpy w a 6pm reservation. But ordered a drink, quick and tasty. Got seated with Ariel. Told her that we had read about her in Google reviews. She was perfect. Now the food...best short ribs ever made and the poke was delicious. Surprisingly affordable gets this place the 5th

Cool atmosphere, industrial setting. The layout is good and cozy. The food was really good and decently priced, pretty good selection of draft beer as well as can and bottle. We went on a Sunday around 1 and it was not very busy. Had some parking around the back which is pretty convenient. We ordered avocado toast and the beet salad in both were very good

I had the pleasure of dining here while visiting from Georgia. The food, the staff and the atmosphere was absolutely wonderful. The presentation of the food was impeccable.The customer service could not have been any better. I would highly recommend 503W to anyone who wants a five star dinner. I will visit every time I am in Colorado Springs

Make reservations. Apparently the food is good but there is no convenient parking and the place is small so you will probably end up on a wait list. Outside the building is pretty rough. Lots of homeless and drug users hanging around so we didnt really want to wait around outside unfortunately..

The food here is delicious, I got the gin carrot cocktail and it was fantastic. 10/10 will return. Staff was very kind and attentive as well.

Food was always great. Wish they would either really use the open table app or take themselves off it. We kept seeing they were ALWAYS full on the app, and would find someplace else to go. We finally risked it and they had LOTS of open seating. When we asked our waitress she said they just blocked themselves off as always full... Because of CoVid?? I guess other local restaurants got our business because of this.

This place deserves all the stars. Even during covid chaos, the staff was super friendly and everyone was so attentive from the moment we stepped inside. A glass was never empty during our meal which is always a great sign of top notch service. Onto the food: I had the nitro short ribs, my mom had the butternut squash. Both amazing choices and there’s about 8 other things on the menu I want to try. I went with an IPA but all of the cocktails coming out from the bar looked excellent! I can’t wait to come back. Cheers 503W!

Got the Seoul bowl and an old fashioned. Nice ambiance and service. The mixed drinks are also pretty delicious albeit a little on the expensive side. I got the bowl with Korean beef. It was good but a little on the sweet side. There was a good amount of meat and it was huge so I had to take half of it home which is nice.

This place is small and gets packed. So at my own risk of being crowded out from one of my faves, here goes... The happy hour here is excellent! They have happy hour food which includes kimchi fried rice. Yes, thats right! It is so good and is made with thick pork belly. They only serve it during the early evening happy hour and at no other time. We also get the chicken (forgot the name) but its on the happy hour menu. You will love it. The sauce for the chicken, mix some of it in with the slaw for a wonderful sweet slaw. We have also tried the yummy French fries with the amazing dipping sauce. The brews and cocktails are also delish. The bartender is very talented and fun to watch. Ask for their special brew of the month.They have a late night happy hour and also weekend happy hours. I think those dont come with happy hour food though. But the regular menu is also brilliant. The chefs are talented and make a beautiful display with each dish. We had the salmon on noodles and it was so good! They always make nice touches like the grilled half lime on many of their dishes. Oh my gosh, its so tasty. I could keep going on about this place.Oh, but parking is a bit hard to find. Be careful not to park at other businesses spots. If youre lucky, you can find a spot on the street out front. Otherwise youll need to park a block away down another street west of the restaurant.

It was awesome. We loved the beer choices. My husband had a vanilla porter and I had a wheat beer. For dinner I loved the seasonal fruit and nut salad and he really enjoyed the Seoul bowl. The atmosphere was really cool. My only complaint was that it was pretty loud. Overall it was a great experience!

This place is simply awesome! The staff was very friendly and the customer service was superior. I walked in, sat down and waited for a friend. Within 10 minutes three I was greeted by three different servers to place an order. When I finally ordered I must say, the wait was no longer than 10 minutes. The food was cooked to my liking and it was so delicious. I will definitely become a regular at this spot.

I had a good meal. I had a classic cheeseburger and fries. It was cooked as ordered and was pretty delicious! Fries were seasoned well and the ranch was a yummy. I also enjoyed the atmosphere and decor. Overall, I would recommend if you are in the area.

Having driven by a number of times we decided to pop in for happy hour — we were not disappointed. The bartenders were very friendly and took the time to explain their cocktail menu and give us some personal recommendations. Our favorites of the evening were the Black Walnut Old Fashioned and the Elyx Mix. The food was top notch, too. The Firecracker Nachos we’re out of this world, and the Street Wings were perfectly seasoned. Definitely a spot we’ll visit again with friends.

First of all 503W is one of our favorite restaurants. The food is amazing and the service is just wonderful. We hosted our wedding reception here and it was just amazing. Our families loved the food and most are local and said theyd be back because it was just that good. Working with the owner Nina was just a smooth and easy experience and she is just a gem. Id highly recommend 503w for dinner dates, to go or for those special moments. Plus kudos to the lovely servers they definitely took care of us and most importantly our families and their needs. We will always be back to 503w.

I loved it. I had the bacon blue burger and it was amazing. My dad had the shrimp cakes also awesome. And my son had desert sugar toast with ice cream and honey and strawberry and it was amazing as well. Excellent service. Wonderful decor. I highly recommend this place. It was my first time and Im sure to go back. Just awesome food. I wish I could take this place home with me.

This place is terrific. A great little hipster spot in sort of a funky spot, but you definitely should seek this place out. They have a strong craft cocktail program combined with a strong presence in their draft beer offering. Wings are terrific and service is impeccable.

I dont know what the negativity is about here. The Cheesecake Factory has got decent food at an affordable price (given that you are likely to box the rest of your leftovers for another meal). Ive always been a fan of Cheesecake Factories across for their consistency (the Louisiana chicken pasta being my girlfriend and my personal favorite menu item), but the San Francisco locations got a very nice view on the balcony level (bring a hat and some shades). There was enough seating for us to be accommodated despite the busy rush hour of diners.

A hidden gem. They have a great atmosphere and trendy menu... Everything from street truck grub to creative, grease-dripping-down-your-arm burgers with amazing hand cut fries. Craft beer menu is good and affordable. Some walls are a cool concrete with featured art (also for sale) hanging on display. Theres an outdoor seating area in the front area and bar seating. Good for large parties inside with plenty of seating. Parking is a bit limited in the back area but you can also park on the street.

Wow! Everything was fantastic! Edamame, Gangnam Fried Chicken, Spicy Big Island Poke, Little Seoul Bowl, Pork Belly, and two desserts—Sweet Caroline, and French Prince. It was all good. This place will not disappoint. There are numerous places to park in the rear of the building, on side streets and business lots where the business is closed (after hours). Parking could be tricky during peak hours on the weekends.

A Best Kept Secret in Colorado Springs!!! My wife and I had no idea this place was here for the last 5 years. Its won very prestigious awards for some of the most unique and exceptionally fresh and tasteful food. We luckily got there before they got busy with the weekday evening diners. Kyle was the Chef that day (28 Jan 2020) and he prepared each of the 4 Dishes we ordered to look more priceless than the local artwork adorning their walls. Very reasonable prices for some of the best tasting and best prepared food one will find in Colorado. This is now one of our Go-To places to eat. Parking proved to be a bit tricky but nobody will mind a short walk once theyve tasted their meals. Excellent portions too so we didnt leave feeling overstuffed. They had me singing (in my head, I Love This Bar, its my kinda plaaaaace, . . )!!!

Review №95

The food here is outstanding and service is excellent. Most of the food has an Asian flare to it, but they do have other items. We have never had a bad thing on the menu. Burgers are juicy, Korean bowls are great and the short ribs are some of the best we had. The French Prince is probably one of the best if not the best desert Ive ever had. The only down side to the place is it is open and can get pretty loud. Try it, you shouldnt be disappointed.

Last night we had an incredible experience. Welcomed the minute we walked in the door. Greeted warmly by two servers and Andrea had our table. Simple calamari appetizer. Attentive, interested in pleasing us and eager to answer our questions. Came back because of the PASSPORT program. We’ll return for the service, always great food and the freshly made Hurricanes!

Review №99

503W has done a terrible job of transitioning to a to-go restaurant. When I walked in no one greeted me or even looked at me for 5 minutes until I walked up to someone and said “Hey I ordered online.” She responded with “Give me one minu-“ and then got distracted talking to her coworker and didn’t address me again.So I patiently waited like 10 more minutes for someone to approach me. They figured out my order and got it out to me pretty close to when it said it would be ready, so I tipped generously cause it was a little busy and the corona and all. But it was a totally wrong order. When I brought it back, one of the guys was very short with me saying that what was in the bag was what was on the ticket, when they were very clearly different items. Ten minutes later they brought out some more food, they got one of the food items right, put the drink we ordered inside, and the other item was one of the wrong ones that was previously in the bag.Third time has got to be the charm, I walk back in tell another gal that the food was wrong, she goes back, checks, tells me it’ll be right out. Meanwhile, there’s a doordasher waiting for an order, and turns out the staff gave that order to the wrong person. FINALLY I get the correct order and can go home...After this awful service, disorganization, and downright negative experience, I might not be coming back when they open up after the virus.
