Spend your midday break wisely—for less than $15 or so—at these restaurants.
Lunchtime in Boulder is a sacred thing. Will you pedal around the Rez and back? Will you hoof it up Sanitas? How will you spend your blessed midday hour (OK, maybe two)?
Among the many activities competing for your time is, of course, eating, and there is no shortage of award-winning fine dining (with ridiculous west-facing views, to boot) in Boulder. But you shouldn’t have to pay dinnertime prices at lunch when speed and efficiency matter more than nursing a three-course meal or browsing a leather-bound cocktail menu.

Order one of 10 entrées at the front, choose a spice level (ranging from mild to extra-hot), then pick a table where your overflowing thali will meet you shortly. Read More…
