Housed in a former mortuary, the decor layers macabre remnants with posh details in a window-flanked space overlooking the charming Lower Highland neighborhood. The drink menu features sips and seasonings as savory as the dishes with which they're paired. While the rooftop patio-outfitted with 1975 GMC RV as bar and repurposed food truck as kitchen- beckons patrons towards adventure.

    Good experience up until we finished our entrees. We were mulling over ordering dessert and the server brought the bill out almost as if to kick us out. Just struck is as odd, especially since iyr original reservation communications indicated the table wasn't booked for another hour. But food was good and up until the end, server did a great job. Would have been 5 star across the board.

    We had a late reservation on the last day of restaurant week which may have impacted the quality of food, but my tacos and sweet potato fries were sooooo dry. Unique place, but only a so-so dining experience.

    We went for denver restaurant week and the menu was amazing, especially for the price that we paid. Service was impeccable, was truly impressed by everyone including our server, food runners and the manager on duty. One of my favorite places in denver and I'll keep coming back because of experiences like this.

    We got a last minute reservation for restaurant week and had our favorite experience at linger so far. We had a nice seat by the window overlooking little man, got two really tasty cocktails, and enjoyed every bite of the three course meal, leaving feeling full and happy. Our waitress was attentive and friendly and checked in on us regularly. Thank you for a great experience!

    First time dining here. Nice atmosphere and decor. Great food options - bun duo (especially the mongolian duck), wagyu sliders and a chocoflan. Great and attentive staff, from welcome desk through service. Went the extra mile with the birthday candle on my dessert. All in all, a great way to turn another year older.

    Restaurant week food looked great on paper but was underwhelming in-person. We had a 7:15 reservation and didn’t get seated until 7:40. Each course took a long time to come out. After dinner we waited 45 min for dessert… we just wanted to leave at this point

    We went for Denver Restaurant Week. The stuffed dates were amazing. The tofu lettuce wraps were excellent. The wavy sliders were gone before I could ask to try them (thanks honey). Deserts, yum. And definitely get the Devil Inside cocktail.

    Seating was good. Service good. Food a bit long. Bao was kinda oily, duck kinda tough. Beet salad not to my liking. Dessert tough to eat chocolate at bottom. Noise level very high, but vibe was good. Okay experience for first time, not gonna go back though drinks pretty pricey and parking a hot mess.

    Linger is a great place to go. Great atmosphere and the food never disappoints. However, we didn't do the Denver restaurant week menu. Between 2 of us, we chose 4 small plates from the regular menu including 2 glasses of wine total. The bill was $110 and left a $25 tip. I know this is par with other restaurants these days but it really makes it impossible to go out to eat very often.

    Three of us tried out the Restaurant Week menu so we got to try almost everything! We also got cocktails which were all incredible. Highlights for me were the Bao Buns, Devils on Horseback, Wagyu Sliders and the Maduros & Crema. Favorite cocktails were the Mojave Muerte and the New Saigon. The building is super cool vibes and we can’t wait to come back when the rooftop is open!

    We're in Denver for a conference for a few days and Linger was definitely the best restaurant that we went to by far. The bao buns are incredible, so is the pad Thai. The Filipino lumpia and the short ribs dish too. Highly recommend!
