Marigold Lyons - Lyons, Colorado

Boulder S.

Our first time to Marigold, to celebrate a birthday. What some people have called a cozy atmosphere, we found to be cramped. We were seated in the front where the tables are practically on top of each other -- not much chance for any kind of private conversation. We also found our server to be far from friendly, hardly even welcoming. He can recite anything you want to know (or not) about the food and wine, and he responded quickly and courteously to our questions and requests. Nevertheless, we found his interactions with us to be quite uninterested, which frankly made the dining experience much less pleasurable. Not so much as a "thank you for coming in."

That said, the food was the best we've had in a very long time. But that's not everything, at least not for us.

Last night was our first visit to Marigold and we will definitely be back. Cozy and intimate feel, without the stuffiness that usually comes along with this level of dining experience. From the wine to the food to the superb service, everything was delightful. Very thrilled to have discovered this gem in Lyons. I am always on the hunt for unique places to bring our foodie friends visiting Colorado. Marigold just moved to the top of the list.

An absolutely delightful experience. The food was amazing. All the dishes are brilliantly crafted to showcase unique ingredients with lovely flavor combinations. My main dish showcased strips of celery root with preserved lemons and a pistachio sauce. Mind bogglingly good. The drinks were also out of this world and included the best martini I've ever had along with vintage amaro and other spirits for dessert. Definitely one of the best dining experiences in Colorado.

Couldn’t speak higher of a restaurant. Incredible, creative, thoughtful food with a tight and constantly-changing menu paired with a caring and attentive staff and a phenomenal wine list. Eric does a great job with the wine and treated us extremely well. I already can’t wait to come back.

We were passing through to the mountains and stopped in Lyon spontaneously. I have to say we made one of the best choices in a spot to stop for dinner! We had the bucatini and rigatoni, which were phenomenal. The pasta was cooked perfectly and the flavors were very standout. The vibe of this restaurant is also great with all the little attention to detail for the decor.

The food here is phenomenal! Unique and interesting combinations of ingredients that you’re sure to love. I urge the self proclaimed “picky eater” to give this place a shot, as it will not disappoint. We weren’t completely famished, but we finished our plates regardless due to impeccable taste. Chef came out to greet us and was very kind. If you are debating over wines, try an unorthodox “orange wine”! The Vodopivec ‘Solo’ will not disappoint. Thanks chef!! 🤌🏽

My wife and my favorite new date night spot. Some of, if not the BEST food we have had in Colorado. Staff is always very knowledgeable about the menu and wine (which is impressive as things change daily), the environment is great, and it is super easy to get in and out of.

Check this place out if you are in the area!

short story: go, with friends, make a reservation.

this lil gem has been on the list for a while and for all the right reasons. We finally made the beautiful short trek up the hill with some friends and Marigold delivered to expectation.
the cute and smartly appointed space is inviting and focuses you on your company and cuisine. the service is attentive, and prompt, but still casual.
this pairs nicely with the expertly crafted dishes . the lengua and pastas were stand out. their negroni was one of the best I have had. looking forward to returning soon.
