Every glowing review written about 112 Eatery is well-deserved.

The atmosphere is warm, inviting, friendly, cozy... partly due to the charm of the historic building (exposed brick, tin ceiling tiles) but mostly due to the staff who takes such great care of you, you hardly notice they're there. It's the perfect place for catching up with good friends, making a great impression on clients or a quiet romantic date.

We went in without a reservation around 9 PM and were seated within ten to fifteen minutes. The hostess let us know that the only open table was reserved but two would be opening up as they were paying their bills. While we were standing near the front door waiting, (every seat in the place was full, including at the bar) one of the waitresses brought us a wine menu to look over and then a few minutes later, took our wine order.

The menu is quite unique and allows for great flexibility. With a nice variety of salads, appetizers/small plates, side dishes and entrées, you can mix things up however you like. We elected to go with one small plate, one side and an entrée.

The scallops were done just right and the oyster mushrooms made for a perfect accompaniment. The pan-fried gnocchi with parmesan reggiano were light and tasty. The nori encrusted sirloin with ponzu sauce at medium-rare was juicy, tender and practically melted in your mouth. It was served with a bit of wasabi on the side that helped spice things up a little, but was really not needed.

I can't wait to go back and try more of their interesting and inspiring menu. Next time though, I'll be sure to make a reservation if it's during normal dinner hours. They're needed and for good reason. The place stays full because people love to eat here.

i highly suggest the fried oyster shooters as an appetizer. probably my favorite appetizer in town. (it used to be nine75's won ton tuna tacos, and this surpassed it instantly.) you can't go wrong with most of the menu.

It was a warm fall evening, so we sat on the patio (which is a great patio, by the way). The guacamole was outstanding. My house margarita was good, but nothing to write home about. For dinner, I had the Tacos Al Carbon and was pleasantly surprised. They were delicious. Only gripe is the waiter forgot to bring out one item, but it turned out to be a good thing as the tacos were more filling than expected.

been there three times for dinner and once for brunch. each time was great. the open kitchen view is great. the wall of window panes dividing the restaurant from the bar is a nice touch as well.

they don't take reservations for less than six people, but i've never had a problem being seated fairly promptly. the wine list isn't extensive but has a nice range to choose from. the staff is very friendly and knowledgeable of the menu.

try it. you won't be disappointed.

good happy hour w/$2 tacos. menu features cuisine inspired by Mexico's coastal regions.

you can get a bowl of noodles bigger than your head at a very reasonable price. the service was very friendly and attentive. the place is low key and quiet. i'll go back again for sure.

I highly recommend the steak and eggs benedict. Several friends rave about their pancakes, and they always have a very creative pancake of the day. I'll have to try them next time. The manager and all the staff are all quite friendly and will keep your coffee topped off regularly, but not to the point of annoyance.

Word of caution: Sunday and Saturday mornings betweeen 10 and 1 can be pretty busy so expect a wait then. They do have a self-serve coffee station for your wait though, so that helps.

It's good, and you'll most likely enjoy your meal, but not the best in Denver. I'd take Sushi Den or Sushi Sasa over it. But if you've been to both of those enough or don't want to deal with the scene of Sushi Den, it's worth it.
