Gunther Toody’s Diner

Super cute place to get some good ol fashioned diner food before the road trip back to LA :) Service was prompt and staff was friendly.

The diner was very old school looking and bright. I ordered the veggie melt with turkey and a chocolate cherry malt. The drink was thick and perfect. The sandwich was huge and soo good. Crunchy and salty goodness. The sweet potatoes were a great match with the sandwich.

Gunther Toodys is a fun place if you like the 195os décor. I saw so MANY bad reviews on here — I had to write something positive because we had a lot of fun here. To those snobby yuppie trust-​fund babies you picked the wrong place. The Big Bopper breakfast and the huge Archie hamburger platter rock! The price is very reasonable and our meal and service was excellent! Oddly enough is name really IS Archie! We tipped him very well! If you like a 1950s diner — this is the place! If you are a snob — go to Downtown Denver and leave us alone in Littleton.

Poor service is an understatement. we walked out before ever ordering. Not one person greeted us as we walked in the door and after a few minutes I had to ASK TO BE SEATED. Then the ‘waitress’ (I use that term lightly, very lightly), set up tables around us (with NO ONE IN THEM), she never once greeted us, nor told us she would be with us in a bit. Rude. Never again.
I am guessing that the management is doing poorly, because we have long been fans of Gunther Toody’s cheeseburgers and malts. Oh well, we took our business elsewhere and will do so in the future.
Ps. My Husky has better manners.

It’s a neat little place with an unusual flair. But that’s why people come here.
I used to love the vibe when I was a kid, but it doesn’t appeal to me as much as an adult.
Food is pretty decent, but nothing special.
I get why people come here, but I know why I am not all that into it anymore.

Great diner food, quick. Good breakfast special during the week. We like to order sandwiches for dinner if we ate looking for something quick.

Babs did a great job serving breakfast! Food was plentiful and above average. Cute décor.

Always a treat. Good breakfast great price… and brings back so many memories of when my daughter got her first job. I don’t eat in often because the noise level is very high. A little too much excitement for me… and always lit up. Don’t pass it up.
Edit to the review: got my food home… THE ORDER WAS COMPLETELY WRONG! NO PANCAKES… French Toast with no syrup or butter. And the hash browns half cooked. I should have checked it before I left. How frustrating.

Fun place for a 50’s diner experience. Good variety of food and service was pretty good. Went for lunch, but I haven’t tried breakfast yet. I’ll remedy that soon enough.

This 50’s themed diner is meh. It’s mildly over priced and the food and shakes are so-​so. It isn’t horrible, but I’m not anxious to return. Do not order the French Dip sandwich, the Au jus is waaaaay too salty.

Fantastic service, great food and awesome décor! I’ve never had a bad experience at this location. Every now and then the burgers are a little too greasy but none the less delicious.

Good diner food, complete with 50’s style culture inside. This is a Colorado chain so, being from Maryland, I’d never heard of it. It’s about like our Cheeburger Cheeburger if you’re from the Old Line State.
Anyway, this is a great spot to get your fill of some quality comfort food. I hear they make hand-​dipped chicken tenders from scratch and they are supposed to be a big hit. I didn’t try them but will on my next visit.
I went with the Patty Melt and it was hugely filling.

This is our go to breakfast place. We’re here at least weekly. The kids love it and there’s always something I’m craving. Their Big Bopper breakfast deal during the week is really affordable.

Our server was an absolute pleasure, food was to die for, and the atmosphere was a blast from the past. I left with a full belly, smiling singing Elvis. What more can you ask for?

Food was «meh». Service was «meh» Really cute décor, vibe, and decent menu, and I would give it another try if I live in CO, but was really expecting more. I know it’s a diner, but I’ve been to some great diners.

This is a very typical 50’s-themed joint with as expected service and food quality.
I appreciated the free soup with my platter. Please turn the heat down on the clam chowder. It was served so hot that it was palatable as an appetizer. I could only enjoy a bit of it with my meal.

Just had dinner there with my husband and three children. The food was of a very poor quality. Where to begin… two of my children ordered mac and cheese. It came out looking very dry-​the way it looks when it has been reheated. My daughter’s serving confirmed this for me, as it had a rectangular shape to it.
My husband and son both ordered what I consider to be standard diner fare… a burger and fries and a BLT. All extremely dry… with the possible exception of the fries… which I wouldn’t know, as my son made the mistake of ordering his with cheese. The fries came out smothered with what appeared to be some sort of nasty cheese soup.
The menu is also extremely overpriced for the quality of food. Good service but honestly the hi-​light for me was watching «The Little Rascals» on the TV and giggling with my children over the rectangle of mac and cheese. Customers are definitely paying for the atmosphere at this place.

Went there for lunch, my husband and I were very impressed with how juicy and tasty our burgers were! They also came with a mountain of French fries I doubt anyone could finish. We’ll be back.

Great New England clam chowder (just like back East); the clams were very tender. Archie, our waiter, was enthusiastic, friendly and was spot-​on with his timing. Food arrived quickly, no complaints there. We’ve only been here a couple times, but my kids love this place. My wife went for the first time tonight and enjoyed it as well.
The fish ‘n chips had a nice thin and crispy batter. Perfectly cooked and the fish melted in your mouth. Previously, we have enjoyed various dinner items and burgers and found the quality consistently good to great. One caveat, the Boca burger was a bit too mushy; thought I’d try it as comparison with the other burgers. (Stay with the beef!). This was the first food item not exactly to our liking, so don’t read too much into it.
With the burgers and meals that come with fries, you’ll get enough to share. This is true with many portions. Save room as the milk shakes are old fashioned and can’t really be beat.
Ask to sit in Archie’s section (for five star service)!

If you crave greasy diner food and nostalgia with 50’s themed props and costume, this is the place to check out. The set-​up is not that different from Johnny Rockets, maybe with a little less pricey menu.
To break it down, the The Hang Ten Burger is very similar to Red Robbin’s Banzai burger, but it can’t even compete, that’s why I couldn’t understand why my boyfriend would even consider ordering that, after having tried it at Red Robin’s and knowing how good it is. We ask to upgrade our fries to the Elvis fries, meh, not that special. Probably wiser to stay with regular fries because their sweet potato fries are really good. Probably the best I’ve ever had. Thin cut almost like McDonald’s fries, they were very crispy all the way through. They were alongside a Monte Cristo sandwich which was so doughy you could taste the baking soda! But my first time trying a fried sandwich dipped in jelly was still a somewhat great experience!
To balance it a little, we asked for a Popeye salad, the ingredients were great but the dressing sucked — too tangy, all you taste was sour, sour, sour. Couldn’t really savor it, downed the veggies with a frown. However, the Jalapeño Cornbread Muffin that came with the salad was delish! One of the best I’ve had. The sweet and savory and spicy flavors were held in very well with a perfectly baked cornbread muffin. Mmmmmm, if they have a drive-​thru, I’d be using it for just the muffins and sweet potato fries.
We couldn’t leave without trying the shake. Maybe it was wrong to get a fancy Fudge Brownie Shake? Everybody here says the basic chocolate shake is very good. But I remember having much better shakes at Chili’s and Cheeburger Cheeburger.
