Outstanding Florentine Tomato Pizza no cheese, Vegan. I finished the whole thing. Crust super thin and crunchy. The flavors were delicious. One of the Best Pizzas I've eaten. Kudos Chef! Service was excellent. Willing to work with dietary needs. FYI dinner items only available for dinner so Ratatouille is not available at lunch.

We found this gem on our way through town from Mesa Verde. The staff is so accommodating and friendly, especially El. All of the food is homemade and so delicious! Our biggest complaint is that we aren’t from around here so we can’t come back and try everything on the menu. IPA’s were okay, margarita is spot on. Order the adult root beer float with cinnamon ice cream, you’ll thank me for it.

This place was a really nice surprise when we stopped in Cortez. I haven’t had the best luck with small local pub grills when traveling, but Loungin Lizard was excellent. We had the French onion burger and the spicy BBQ pizza and both were very good. I highly recommend this place and would make it a point to stop again if I am back in the area.

If you're looking for a spot with great vibes and even better food, the Lounging Lizard is the place to be. As someone with gluten sensitivity, I appreciate the variety of gluten-free options available here. But fair warning: when they say spicy, they mean it! The atmosphere is laid-back and lively, with good vibes all around. The wait staff here are not only well-informed but also have fiery good temperaments, adding to the enjoyable dining experience. Now, onto the main event – the food. I opted for the spicy pulled pork sandwich on a gluten-free bun, and it was a flavor explosion! Sweet, spicy, and absolutely delicious. And let's not forget about the fries – made in-house and bursting with flavor, they're a must-try. But what really stole the show for me was the spiced house-made ranch. Creamy, tangy, with just the right amount of kick – it's a solid 9/10 in my book. Overall, the Lounging Lizard is a gem of a restaurant with fantastic food, a chill atmosphere, and friendly staff. Whether you're gluten-free or not, this place is definitely worth a visit.

I don't like to only share negative reviews; I do enjoy when I have an opportunity to share positive reviews. Today is that day, a few weeks ago, my wife and I stopped in after our day trip on the Mesa Verde. I was pleasantly surprised with the atmosphere, service and the food. Let's dive into that a little further. The service: Absolutely fantastic, the ladies that served us didn't let our water run out once, stopped in constantly just the be sure we're still good, and were incredibly pleasant. They all acted like our primary waitress so well that I honestly don't know whose table we were at because they all were so attentive. The food: I ordered a cheeseburger of some variety; my wife ordered the Frito pie, and we shared a white chili French fry appetizer. We were absolutely shocked at how amazing the flavor, temperature, and presentation was of all our items. I would rate the cheeseburger as one of my top 5 best cheeseburgers of all time. It was seasoned so well, cooked to the right temperature and the flavor was just exploding in every bite. We absolutely will return on our next visit, highly recommend.
