We had such a great lunch at Back Door Grill! The atmosphere is laid-back and welcoming, exactly what you want when you're looking to relax and enjoy a good meal. The staff was friendly and attentive without being overbearing, which made the whole experience feel easy and comfortable. The food really stood out--everything tasted fresh, flavorful, and clearly made with care. The burgers were cooked perfectly and packed with flavor, and the sides were just as impressive. You can tell they take pride in what they serve. It's the kind of place that feels like a local favorite for a reason. Great food, good vibes, and a spot we'd definitely come back to the next time we're in town. read more

Our large group had stopped by over the weekend but they were super packed so we had to go elsewhere. We knew we would be back though because the place smelled like burger heaven. We showed up again the next day about 30 min before close and the staff was super nice and didn't make us feel rushed or like an inconvenience. The beer was ice cold, hot toddy's were customizable and delicious, and burgers were yummy and worth the return trip. I gave this a 4 star only because the sweet potato fries were oddly large, tasteless, and overcooked along with the chili which was incredibly dry and basically inedible. I'm thinking this was because of how late we showed up though so I won't hold that against them. The rest of our visit was amazing so we will definitely be back! read more

Back Door Grill - Mushroom fries - American Near Me - Steamboat Springs, Colorado

Phenomenal burgers and phenomenal service. This is such a cool unique spot! First off, everyone at our table loved their burgers. Speaking for mine specifically, the potato bun was perfectly soft and the burger was cooked exactly how I like it. The bacon was the perfect level of crunchy but not cracking apart and thick but not too thick. I also have to give an extra shoutout that when we asked for ranch they loaded it up and weren't skimpy at all and nowadays with so many spots charging $3 for half a tiny cup of ranch, I was very pleasantly surprised! Our server was very friendly and had great recommendations. My personal rec would be to get the curly fries instead of the truffle (unless you really like truffle oil) read more

Did I have to take a tums after eating this meal? Yes. Was it worth it? Absolutely. We ended up here for a late lunch after a soak at Strawberry Park Hot Springs in late October. I had the mushroom Swiss Umami burger and was very happy. I did ask to add sautéed onions to it and they did that plus kept the raw onions on it, which I thought was kind of weird, but I guess I should've specified. Just picked those raw ones off though. My husband enjoyed his bison burger. The menu options are so fun and unique, albeit a bit pricey for burgers but they are good! You are in Steamboat after all. We sat on the patio and had good and friendly service, despite them being quite busy with a few large tables. We waited a while for the "special sauce" to come back to us for our fries but it never came in time so we just ate and enjoyed our sides with ketchup. I would come here again if I'm back in Steamboat and craving a burger and a casual spot! read more

Outstanding!! The best burgers we have had in a long time! The Twilight Zone burger is unique and amazing!! Fresh ground hamburger and the fries and onion rings are awesome too! Highly recommend! read more

Feeling the need to be gluttonous, we came here tonight so I could try the Dirty Harry burger. We would've sat outside on a nice night, but there weren't tables available, so we went upstairs and sat in the bar area. We were greeted quickly and placed our order. It's a good thing the Dirty Harry is not bigger than it is as it might cause cardiac arrest. But at least you'd go out on a high note. As you'd expect with a burger served on a glazed donut with peanut butter, bacon, and everything else it's got, this thing is richer than you'd imagine. It's also more delicious than you think it'll be. My wife, not being the eating daredevil I can be at times, went with the classic burger. BORING! But she still really enjoyed it. Both curly fries and sweet potato fries were very good. The sweets might've even been better. I'm not sure how often I could eat this thing, but I wouldn't hesitate to go back to try one of the many other good looking burgers on the menu. read more

Back Door Grill was a pleasant surprise. We have dined at quite a few more upscale restaurants in Steamboat which all come with a nice bill so we were happy to find a casual, burger bar, that was reasonably priced. We sat inside upstairs because it was unbearable hot outside. But they do have a lovely patio area. We sat at the bar, order drinks and burgers and before we knew it our food had arrived. These burgers were exactly what we were looking for and hit the spot - not too greasy, bun to burger ratio was on point and most of all flavorful! read more

Back Door Grill - Burger - American Near Me - Steamboat Springs, Colorado

Fun place! Definitely super casual with loud music. Hamburgers were good! And as others have said the onion rings really may have been the best I've ever had. Will be dreaming about those for a while. Instead of being able to change the cheese on a burger they up charge you to add it. Annoying but it was only $1 more so worth it to not have to eat the disgusting American cheese (why do restaurants even serve that??). I would have also liked more lettuce, and tomato one the burger. By the end it was pure patty. The burgers are fairly greasy and between that and the pickle juice form the pickles the bottom bun is a bit soggy but it just makes it more appealing somehow. read more

This place does burgers with perfection. A classic cheese burger with an additional 1$ egg topper is simply fantastic. The hamburger has a great beef flavor and even the single is a nice hamburger serving. Love the cocktail list and a great rotating locals beer list. Love sitting outside. Fries came out perfectly hot and crispy. Friendly service as well. Got to note a burger, fries, beer and tip was over 30.00. Guess that's the wat it is these days. read more

Back Door Grill - Classic cheeseburger with an egg. - American Near Me - Steamboat Springs, Colorado

A fun place with great food and service! Apparently there is an upper floor with more seating but we sat on the main level and it was packed pretty tight. Lots of people in a small space meant it was a little loud but it has a great fun vibe. The service was wonderful and quick. The food was really good! Try the blue burger- yum! My husband had the Philly sandwich and it was huge! He said it was great! I also loved that it's not on the Main Street through town and it has a parking lot. That's hard to find in this area. Also the walls are COVERED in dollar bills. So cool! read more

Wowww...this burger place was definitely worth it!! Decided to give the Twilight Zone a try after our server recommended it particularly because of the peanut butter sauce! I was skeptical, but it paired so well with the burger meat, cheddar and bacon! I also opted for a second patty, but that was unnecessary since these burger patties are already very thick. Our server was awesome and we were well taken care of. The dining room was very tight, but tables got freed up pretty quickly. They have a virtual Yelp wait list that you can join from your phone and our wait wasn't bad at all. The ambiance is very cool too with dollar bills all over the walls and multiple TVs on with sports on. You can even ask for markers and a stapler so you can add your own dollar! Definitely recommend coming here! read more

Food was so good! I ordered the burger bowl with no cheese and honey mustard dressing and it was a huge serving and so filling. The sweet potato fries were super crispy and yummy. Everybody I was with enjoyed their burgers as well. The indoor vibe is quirky with the decor and the outdoor seating is a great option to feel less cramped. The staff could have been a bit friendlier but other than that our food came quick and it was a solid stop for dinner. read more

This place was a fun spot to happen upon last minute. We were all craving a burger after our long flight in and stopped in around 2-3pm on a Saturday - luckily, it wasn't too crowded yet! Everything was so yummy!! I got the How You Doin burger - SOO yummy! My sister also got the Twilight Zone - weird concept but I would totally get next time. I got a side salad and it was actually large and well worth its value; however, next time I will definitely be getting the onion rings because it was the best I've ever tasted (from my other family members). I will definitely be back!! read more

Really craved some wings on a Saturday night in Steamboat (mind you, a Saturday of PRESIDENT'S DAY WEEKEND in Steamboat AFTER A SNOW STORM!). It was BUSY! But surprisingly, my party of 4 was able to get a table downstairs in just about 30 minutes. That is incredibly quick considering how small the place is. AMBIANCE - Small but cool! You have the choice to go to the bar upstairs, or the sit-down restaurant like downstairs. We did the latter. We wanted to make sure we were going to a place that had TVs playing the USA vs. CAN NHL game and boy, we chose the right spot! They had multiple TVs on each wall! So every seat had a few of the game! IT's a really cool spot too because the walls are plastered with dollar bills left by guests. Also, I think they have a window outside for takeout orders. FOOD - Wings and burgers were the best! The burger menu was impressive and the taste was even better. Very creative stuff. Wings were cooked perfectly as well and hit the spot for my craving. SERVICE - Very friendly people all around! They checked up on us frequently and there are no complaints whatsoever! PARKING - They do have a lot of spots available in the parking lot. Not a problem finding parking! I totally recommend this spot to anyone visiting Steamboat and want a unique spot to get good wings and burgers. read more

Service was great, staff was attentive, place had a really cool vibe. Burgers were good, fries weren't overly salty. The value just wasn't there for me . 2 burgers no drinks and somehow it's $50. They slap some bs "surcharge" on there that they say is for the kitchen staff. Maybe it is maybe it isn't who knows, but why are you just adding it to my bill without telling me? I don't dig that. read more

Iconic burger spot in Steamboat! My husband really hyped up Back Door Grill, and I'm happy to report it lived up to the hype! We dined on the patio - It's nice and spacious, and there is also a rooftop with even more outdoor seating. The menu is comprised of some WILD burger combinations. I didn't want to go extremely crazy like the dirty harry (peanut butter, fried egg, bacon, and hashbrown burger on a glazed donut), but I DID want to try one of the unique creations. I went with the John Wayne, which is topped with BBQ sauce, cheddar cheese, and an onion ring. So delicious! We also ordered a side of curly fries to enjoy with it. I imagine after a day of skiing, this would hit the SPOT. Over server was very nice and was able to split the tab of our large table with ease. Loved Back Door Grill & was so happy I got to check it out. read more

First time I've ever visited Back Door outside of Winter and while the vibes are undoubtedly different, the food is just as good.

A great place for happy hour. Super selection of some great tastes. We went for the Tachos, the wings and the chili dog. Yum, yum , and yum. Also impressed with the kind waitress and the drinks. read more

First I need to say they were super busy! The selection of burgers is great, with interesting options! Our waitress was great, although slammed. My husband got the chili, she told him it is kind of sweet and he agreed with that but he did like it. I got a blt with curly fries, I asked for not toasted bread and to add avocado- neither of this requests happened. The waitress took it off completely and showed me she put it in correctly. I guess the kitchen just couldn't keep up! My son got a kids cheese burger and a milkshake both were fine but not incredible. We were recommended this place by locals, I think we just caught them when they couldn't keep up with the crowds! read more

Great lively spot with solid food for most groups or individuals. We sat outside and there was chill reggae music playing entire time. The entrance has dollar bills with messages all over, you can add yours. My party all got burgers mostly. The burger options are insane and super creative, but I kept it simple (boring, I know) Starters: Hummus plate (great) Nacho stack (decent) Meal: Classic cheeseburger w tater tots (great) read more

My wife's burger was good, but mine was easily the most flavorless burger I've ever had. I ordered the Black Mamba, which is a 25.00 plate and the only thing with a detectable flavor was the bun. It was actually weird that a dish with so many normally tasty things stacked on it was so bland. I ate about half of it trying to like it. read more

This is a fun setting but with very underwhelming food and service. The bottom hamburger bun from my meal was burnt and my tator tots were cold. It cost our family of four $100 and should have been $60. There are better options available read more

We went upstairs to the bar to wait till our table was ready downstairs. Good service and a fun atmosphere during the football playoffs. We waited 30 minutes and our table was ready for 6 people. Food was OK as we split a burger and fries since we had wings as an appetizer. Lots of TV's to watch the game on but I doubt if we go back next year when we are in town to ski. The server was good and accommodating. read more
