Larkburger = Tasty

On a recent trip through Colorado a long time friend recommended we eat at "Larkburger" a small burger spot near Coors Field in Downtown Denver.
 A very busy Downtown Denver made parking a bit of a challenge but we found a spot about 4 blocks away and walked back to the small mid-block building.
   The "feel" of the place was good right off the bat, people in the small seating area looked happy and were devouring their orders, this is always a good sign.
   We waited in a short line to order and were greeted with a smile and welcome by the counter person, she was helpful and well versed with the menu, after helping us with our choices she thanked us for choosing to eat there.
    With tray in hand we headed to a table to wait on our food, a short nine minutes later our food was at our table, we were thanked again for choosing Larkburger.

My wife had the Larkburger namesake larkburger-new

and I had the Truffleburger    Larkburger food and menu items


 To accompany the burgers we of course had fries!
My wife had their house fries with are thin cut and seasoned simply with sea salt!

 I had the Truffle Parmesan version.

First off the burgers were cooked exactly the way we asked, mine a perfect mid-rare...my wife's spot on well done, the toppings were fresh and delicious including the truffle aioli on mine which was spectacular!

 The fries were just as tasty as the burgers, fresh, crispy, and perfectly seasoned, once again hitting a home run with the truffle parmesan version!

The long and short of it is if your in Boulder or Denver make sure you get into Larkburger and give them a try!
