2.5, edging down to 2 stars…read more Not the best food experience I've ever had. They're rated really high -- actually one of the highest-rated restaurants in Fort Collins -- and from a food perspective I don't really understand why. Sliders with sweet potato fries -- fine, nothing extraordinary. Potato éclairs -- . It was really just mashed potatoes with some topping on it. I honestly didn't even finish it. Mountain oysters -- huge letdown. They came out so overcooked they were basically crunchier than potato chips, with the batter crumbling off. I've never had them before, so I didn't get a good representation of how they're supposed to be -- these were just super-cooked batter. On the space: we ended up sitting in three different spots to eat. We went outside by the street first -- super loud, and people were smoking, so we headed back in. The open spot inside was right under the AC and about forty degrees, so we moved to the back area. The back was fine -- covered -- but pretty dirty, with mop buckets and clutter sitting around. The one drink I had was a good value since we were there at happy hour -- some kind of fruity whiskey drink. It was fine, but nothing I'd seek out again. I hate to give such a friendly place a bad review. It'd be a really great spot if you're a college student who wants some cheap bites and a drink -- but honestly it's just bar food, and the ceiling is probably a 4 on a really good day. I wouldn't get excited to head down there, and parking is a bit of a hassle too. Would recommend only if you're after very cheap eats in that area -- check them out for happy hour. But I would not return.

Literally the best place for dinner in Fort Collins, it rivals some Michelin spots I've been to…read more One of the best dressings on a simple starter salad I've ever had; I ate it like chips. Fresh, quality ingredients, nothing too fancy, just incredible cooking technique for a reasonable "nice dinner" price. The ambiance is small and humble, but still feels like a nice night out. Service is great, and they all look like they've been chosen from a casting agency for a small town restaurant drama. Warning if you have a vertical ID: even if you can legally drink, they might not take it and WILL lecture you.

Excellent food, and attentive service…read more The beet salad with chicken that I had was expertly prepared--I mean a perfect blend of a myriad of flavors. Everything was fresh. Others had burgers, and sautéed Brussel sprouts. One of has had carne asada fries--it was an enormous portion. Drink refills were plentiful and the server was constantly checking in on us, but in a very attentive and non-intrusive way. We liked him a lot. The list of draft beers is notable, and my partner and a flight of four. The prices were reasonable, especially for the quality of food and the level of service we experienced. If you're in Fort Collins, I'd recommend checking out this comfy restaurant.

Amazing dinner at The Still Whiskey Steaks!…read more I had the NY strip with mashed potatoes and a side of Brussels sprouts, and everything was freaking perfect. The Brussels sprouts were a WOW, so good. We ended with a shared bananas foster crème brûlée cheesecake, which was the perfect finish to the meal. Aaron was amazing, and Sean/Shawn -- I hope I'm spelling that right, was also incredibly friendly. Both had great customer service skills and made the experience even better. The ambiance was perfect: not too loud, no harsh bright lighting, and such a rustic, curated feel. Overall, an amazing dinner and definitely a place I'd recommend. A Great Steak!

The…read moreatmosphere of the restaurant was lively and exciting so I initially thought this was going to be a great time. The food was amazing I had the Prime Rib and loaded baked potato, my family ordered four appetizers they chose shrimp, oysters and chicken wings we wanted the 3 rolls but we were told we could only order 2 because they were sold out. We had no issues with food every item ordered was amazingly delicious. Compliments to the cooks! The service provided was not as impressive, I had asked for sweetener for our tea twice, he acknowledged and said he would bring it to our table but it never came. I had to ask the individual who brought out our appetizers thankfully he brought it as soon as he left the table. It took a while for our server to ask if we needed any drink refills. Lastly, since I sat at the edge of the table of the corner booth, I felt my personal space was invaded each time he brought out or food. He could have asked me to stand up or move for a little bit (which I wouldn't have mind), with this request he would avoided stepping on my foot, bumping me with his elbow and not reaching over me. Not sure if our server was in the best mood but when we were leaving he knocked over my tea spilling some on me and the take out container. Leaving me disappointed because my husband and I drove 672 miles. Even my children stated usually there is impeccable service.

New ownership, great atmosphere and staff. This has become a restaurant instead of a deli. But I…read morethoroughly enjoyed our meal. The chicken drumlettes (wings) were outstanding. They trimmed the bone end and pushed all the meat to the top. This made them less fatty and stringy, more crispy and delicious. Their short rib croquettes were also amazing. I'd never had a short ribs prepared this way stuffed inside a tasty pastry with potato and cheese. They are my new favorites. I was so full on appetizers that I went straight to dessert next and I have to say that their cookie dough creme brûlée. It wasn't too sugary and the cookie dough flavoring was not overpowering. Simply fantastic way to end a meal. I even took home their brownie and ice cream for my housemate. They said it was the best brownie they've ever had.

These are fake reviews !!…read more Yelp needs to crack down on fake reviews or their business model breaks down. No way are their so many five star reviews after the sale of the Fort Collins icon Choice City. This new rebranding of Choice City is way way over priced, totally destroyed the cool beer taps-Chimay Ale used to be on tap. It's all gone, chill vibe, great sandwiches, deli counter meats. All gone. In its place is a sterile Over priced mess of a restaurant that was decorated with on line IKEA furniture and a terrible Sysco Foods mass produced food product. Awful stay away and PS fire the BS level hospitality consultant that you hired for this. Sorry for the mean review but it is what it is.

Eh. Over recent years, I've had very hit and miss experiences at the downtown Austin's. Yesterday…read morewas another disappointing miss. We stopped in for a late lunch, arriving around 2. We started with a beer for my husband and a mocktail for me. The mocktail (blueberry lemonade) was simply not worth the $7 price tag. Mostly ice - filled to the literal rim of the glass. So full when I took one of my first sips, ice fell to the floor. There was just a splash of ginger beer; it could've used more but, alas, no room with all that ice! When I mentioned it to the server, she explained that's how they make them. She offered to bring me another, but it seemed clear she meant I'd be paying for it. No thank you. Next, my food. I tried the salmon burger (new to the menu, I'm told) which is actually a salmon croquette on a bun with some lettuce and vinaigrette. It's HUGE and not in a good way. The first few bites were okay, and I thought the heavily breaded effect was due to biting into the edge. As I continued eating, though, most bites felt like a mouthful of bread. I can only hope there was minced salmon in it, but the ratio was so heavy on breadcrumbs that I couldn't detect it. Not the slightest hint of pink on the inside either. I ate about 1/2, my hungry hub finished it. The flaws of the salmon burger didn't seem worth pointing out to the server after the response I got with the drink. Later, as we walked around downtown, I felt like I had a lead sandwich in my stomach. My husband had a better experience than I. His bison burger came out great. No complaints. Unfortunately for me, I think I'll just have to order very specific things when coming here now. Austin's has sentimental value for me - it's the first place we dined after moving here 27 years ago. Because of that, I keep giving them second chances after they fall short. I just wish they'd return to the days of "you can't go wrong", everything is awesome.
