"First impressions: The restaurant is much smaller than I anticipated, seating about 12 people (I couldn't count exactly). There isn't a waiting area (at least not that I saw), and the parking is limited, making it quite busy. It has that unassuming vibe, where the appearance may not be appealing, but you just know the food must be good. Surprisingly, it's very clean, which contrasted with my initial expectations. The service was excellent. I didn’t catch the server’s name, but she was attentive right from the start. Even though I was out of sight, they managed to remember our orders and ensured our drinks were always full while making sure we had everything we needed. The place is famous for its breakfast burrito, so I opted for the burrito filled with bacon and topped with half green chile and half gravy. The first bite was a pleasant surprise; I wasn't expecting so much crispy bacon. That was definitely a highlight! The green chile was also spot-on. As for the gravy, while it was good, I wouldn't choose it next time. Next visit, I’ll stick with just the green chile for my burrito. The portion sizes are generous, and while they do offer smaller sizes, I really don't see the point. The food is fantastic—not too greasy or bland. I can't say whether the ingredients are high quality, non-GMO, gluten-free, etc., but honestly, I don’t care as long as it tastes great, and it really does. As a bonus, you even get a sticker and candy with your meal! In summary: Great service and food, but limited seating and parking. Be prepared to wait outside in your car."

Great breakfast and speedy service for such a busy spot! I usually order the biscuits and gravy, and they did a fantastic job with it! The pancakes are also delicious!

Breakfast Burrito The Grump are the bomb!! It is the only breakfast place in the jumps where the temperature of the food is as hot on the last bite as it was on the first. I love it! View menu

My girlfriend and I come here everyone we're in Colorado Springs. Their breakfast burrito can't be beat. Service is exceptional. Only complaint is that it is cash only. It can be very inconvenient.

Awesome we 've been drinking and need food place. King 's Chef is basically a Punk Rock version of Denny 's. Staff is friendly, atmosphere is fun and funky, food is delicious but SO greasy... you 'll be fighting over who gets to use the bathroom first when you get home :

Chef Diner is my go-to spot whenever I'm in Colorado Springs. The food is top-notch and expertly prepared. I appreciate that you can order half portions of various dishes. The coffee here is absolutely delightful. Although it's primarily a bar-style restaurant, they conveniently have an ATM on the premises. View menu

Green Chili, on everything.. Not bad, cute looking diner at tentative service good coffee and Chili that can cure Cancer! Well maybe it didn't cure my husbands throat cancer but he actually could taste this through chemo (which was amazing considering he could taste nothing else) we went to the one by Penrose hospital. It wasn't very busy but it was weekday and it had some great french toast, and some crazy hot green chili on amazing potatoes. Eggs were good and I'd love to try more of there menu.

Try the Burrito. The only reason I go to King Chef is their Breakfast Burrito. You can order it covered in Gravy or there house made Green Chili Sauce, I get mine Half and Half. I have never had a bad experience and have received top notch service every time. If you sit at the bar and watch the kitchen you can watch how hard they work to bring you an amazing meal. There is literally a guy with a potato and a cheese grader knocking out hash browns like it came out of a 10 pound pre made bag. I am new to the springs and have already found one of my go to breakfast places... You won’t be disappointed. Oh and be sure to bring cash!
