Local and family owned kitchen provided an excellent dining experience. The staff were super friendly and attentive and the food was delicious! There is a great selection of menu items and I wish I could have tried more. The Elk Shepard’s pie, Frito pie, and Caesar salad were all on point! Portions are pretty big and you can also order half sizes for things. With all that, make sure you save room for the cobbler!!!

Amazing! The reviews are spot on! We ordered the Green chili beef burger and the Country Fried Chicken with Green Chili Mashed Potatoes and topped it off with a peach cobbler! It was all delicious, the service was great and the atmosphere was fun.

Jermaine was our server. Very knowledgeable and friendly. He described the special drinks for me and I selected one that he recommended. The blood orange was delicious. We also had the blackened shrimp and wings which were excellent. Sadly, I didn’t remember to take a picture of those but you can see the pictures of our drinks. absolutely recommend this restaurant! One last thing, check out this soap dispenser in the ladies room. How creative using a Titos bottle.

If you want to experience some true Coloradan food and hospitality, this is the place for you! I personally tried the green chili cheddar beef burger (perfect for those wanting an extra bit of heat on their sandwich), and the savory white chicken chili cheese fries. You might have to resort to only trying one or the other though because the portions are pretty big! Nice decor, expansive menu options, and friendly waitress who made sure our visit went smoothly.

Stopped in for a later dinner on a recent trip to the area. It was a pretty busy place, but the wait staff was very friendly and helpful. They had a very interesting menu, lots of options, and allergies and dietary restrictions are very clearly marked on their menu, which I really appreciated! There were some unique and tasty cocktails. The smoked mushrooms on their pizza was one of the best things I have ever eaten. I had never thought about smoked mushrooms before, but I definitely have since. Such a creative menu, we will certainly eat here again when we are in the area.

As soon as you walk in the door the staff greets you and jumps to make sure you get sat quickly. Party of 1 so I sat at the bar. Food was good. I had the meatloaf. It was very different tasting than any other meatloaf I’ve had. Not a bad thing. Just unique. Listening to the staff behind the bar you can tell they’ve got great chemistry and enjoy their jobs.

We enjoyed the corner booth big enough for the family! Service was great and we enjoyed unique dishes and lots of gluten free options! We got pizza and frito pie gluten free. The Mexican beer is great with green chili salt rim. Even the kids pizza and chicken fingers were great! Last dish was the cinnamon chili pork chop! All of it was delish! Hope this helps you! Give us a thumbs up! #Crazykleinadventure
