Golden West Cafe

Love the vibe of this place. Went here for a date and it was great (the place, not the date sos). The decor is very cute and they were very intentional with the design. The waiter was nice and checked in often. There’s both a bar and table seating, include high tops and booths. I only have pictures of the bathroom because I wasn’t ready to tell my date I am a Google Local Guide Level 8.

Updated 10/2023 The new vegan steak is so so good. Looks convincing. Server Michael H was so lovely and knowledgeable. This place constantly has delicious vegan options. Lots of vegan options! Was delicious. They have the impossible burger! Only thing is that I was really off put by the moose, bison and other stuffed animal corpses on the wall. :/ That aspect was not vegan friendly. Our server Woodward, was so knowledgeable and friendly! Update: came back, food is still great. They have the Just Egg now!

This place used to be a lot better, honestly. I haven't been back since I moved out of town several years ago, and this was underwhelming. The tater tots remain good, but that's hard to mess up. The sopapilla enchiladas were pretty bad. The chicken was so overcooked it was actually *crunchy* so I just ate the beans and cheese with the guacamole. Overall, ambience is decent but I won't go back.

Obscenely delicious food. Extensive menu. Lots of vegan options. And a tasty green chile bloody mary! 4 years later (09/23) (Why wont Google let you re-review places??) Well, we still go to Golden West often, and today we stopped in to eat (instead of take out) for the first time in quite a while. The restaurant seems to have been renovated, and perhaps they are still working on it as they were opening some boxes with tables in them while we ate. We were seated quickly on this Friday evening, it was early tho. The service was attentive and quick. The food was as good as ever. We ordered a Hangover Burger with (very) garlic fries, Zucchini Brie pancakes and regular buttermilk pancakes, we also started with the roasted Brussels sprouts. Everyone enjoyed their meals! Of course we will be back.

This place is amazing! First off the atmosphere is so fun and inviting. The staff are all super friendly and there are so many vegan options! I had a hard time choosing because everything looked so good but the vegan mozzarella sticks were really cheesy. The biscuits was flakey and paired perfectly with the gravy. The vegan fried chicken was huge and really crispy and juicy. You can’t go wrong with this place!

We had the brussel sprouts years ago and they were inspiringly amazing, just had them summer of 23 and they were terrible. Almost couldn't eat them, they were mushy drowning in teriyaki sauce. Chorizo breakfast sausage was amazing. I recommend getting it with the Christmas. Red and green sauce is on top. I also had them put the hashed potatoes on the side instead of in the burrito. Wife had a vegan breakfast sandwich That was amazing. Tasted really good. Even me the meat eater would order this sandwich. It was so good. Fried green tomato appetizer was supposed to be amazing but it was just okay. Sisters fake chicken sandwich (pic) was very good she said. Another time had the lox w capers omelette. Get the cream cheese on the side. Very yummy.

Just solid food all around. The tater tots were soooo perfectly crispy and came with special dipping sauces rather than just ketchup. This was my first time trying Elvis Pancakes, which are apparently a real combination not unique to this restaurant, and they turned out really nicely. The peanut butter-butter that’s served on top was really good.
