    Grilled cheese, pasta salad
    Brenda W.

    I like to come here whenever I return to the area visiting friends. I've always had a great experience here and this time was just as exceptional in service, food, and wine. I opted for a fancy grilled cheese sandwich and pasta salad as my side. To drink, I had a glass of Reisling. My meal was scrumptious and our server was attentive. Note: best to make a reservation even on a weekday lunch date, as ours was. It is a bustling venue with good reason.

    The supreme flatbread special of the day

    This is such a great Creekside winery with a wonderful menu. We started with the baked Brie with blackberry jam. OMG! Delicious! Also had the wine flight and then I decided on the Riesling. Ryker was our waiter and was attentive and helpful. All the staff were friendly and seemed to pitch in and help each other at the tables. We then split the flatbread of the day which was the supreme. We loved the dough. It was thicker but with all the toppings on top it had to be! You cannot beat the Creekside views and they even offer you a blanket(which we accepted) in case you get a chill by the creek. I will definitely come back here when I come back to evergreen.

    Was looking for a lunch place after a hike and honestly chose Creekside cellars because it had a lot and everything else was street parking. I'm glad we did choose it. They have a nice menu of apps, charcuterie, salads and sandwiches. They also make their own wines. I tried a flight of Rousselot, Riesling and the Port. I loved the Riesling and took home a bottle. I tried the Roasted Beet salad with added grilled chicken . It was good but was lightly dressed and couldn't find my server to get more. I loved the baked Brie and berry compote. I would say make resys for dining room. The dinner menu looks good but far for me.

    I love this place. I especially love the owner Bill Donahue. I have been coming here close to 25 years, love the family, love the food, and wish I could only drink bill's wine that's the dream. I try to come up at least twice a year, more if I'm lucky. Come up for tapas brunch or lunch, stay for the wine and make sure to grab a couple bottles or a couple cases of wine on your way out ... you won't be disappointed. They just want to make you feel right at home, good food, great wine, even better memories, and you will want to keep coming back whenever you can. Right along side bear creek, it has a very romantic cozy mountain feel that you will brag to your friends and family about. I recommend the Robusto if you're into reds, the Riesling if you're into whites, and the Chardonnay or Rosé if you don't know what else to get.

    Creekside Cellars is a charming Mediterranean winery right in the heart of Evergreen. They have a great variety of wine, made in-house from grapes grown in the Grand Valley on the Western slope of Colorado. They serve food (which I'm not able to speak on... YET but on my next visit I plan on trying a few things because everything looked delicious). We walked in on a whim at around 3pm on Saturday (LDW) and it was busy with no available tables outside, but the kind hostess found us a spot inside in front of the musician playing some lovely music. The vibe was so welcoming and calm and the service was on point. Everyone who greeted us / served us / or simply said hello was friendly and made us feel right at home. The outdoor back patio area is beautiful and overlooks the creek. I highly suggest making a reservation because they book out days / weeks in advance) We opted for twoflights and enjoyed everything we tasted: 2018 Malbec 2018 Cab Sauvignon 2018 Viognier 2018 Roussanne 2018 Riesling 2003 Lakehaus Port (one of the best ports I've tasted - thank you for the chocolate truffle to pair with it ) Will absolutely be back on our next visit to Evergreen!

    Creekside Cellars is a wonderful restaurant by the river in my favorite little town of Evergreen! The food is high quality, fresh ingredients in a charming atmosphere that you can only get in Colorado! Every item that I have ordered has always exceeded my expectations! Portions are large food is flavorful and service will not let you down. People are personable and are proud of the establishment, as they should be! They have an extensive wine menu that will make you want to stay for hours. Bring your friends but make a reservation because this place has quite a following with the locals! Outdoor seating goes fast as it is on the river!

    Tomato soup sandwich

    The waiter Dominique was amazing the food serving was more than enough. Soup was great. Wine flight was amazing. I recommend coming back but eat inside the bees were bad. Reminder to order the cinnamon fudge brownie that topped off everything

    Spicy Capicola, Fontina, and Fig/Bacon Jam Panini

    The wine, the panini sandwiches, and service, and the creekside seating were all fabulous. Our go-to place in Evergreen from now on. The restaurant employees were great and friendly.

    Rosemary chicken panini and side salad of the week!

    We've been to this winery a handful of times when we end up in the area and it's always a relaxing time. We stopped by on a Monday and requested the patio, but with their 90 minute seating limit, they already had a list of reservations upcoming. We sat and watched a table sit empty for an hour while we were inside by the front window. Service was polite and prompt. Our main server (she had an Austrian (I think) accent) was very friendly, and offered recommendations on her favorite wines. We sampled a few, opted to get a bottle of their Cabernet Sauvignon and sipped as we looked over the menu. We decided to do the sandwich/salad split where they charge an extra $3, but you get a second side. I had the pasta salad and my husband got their weekly salad that was dressed in a wonderful citrusy dressing and full of heirloom tomatoes, tortellini, tender arugula and perfectly seasoned roasted chicken. The chicken rosemary sandwich was underwhelming, a little heavy on the cheese and lacking some kind of balancing seasoning, but filling nonetheless. The musician playing softly in the main dining room was a nice surprise and relaxing touch. We'll definitely be back, but will be sure to make a reservation for the patio next time - happy for them to be so busy on a random Monday that isn't a holiday!

    This was a great dining experience. We started with a 6 flight of wine where we were given a list to choose from. For appetizers we tried the baked Bree in a puffed pastry with fresh peaches, apples and fig and berry jams. Amazing! Main course: lamb skewers, fish stew, flank steak and pork loin. Each came with your choice of sauce as well as 2 sides. For desert we shared hazelnut chocolate cake with raspberry sauce and vanilla ice cream. Followed by port wine. Our server was Darcy and she was beyond great!!! To top it off we were seated outside by a running river. It was picture perfect!!!

    We came here when waiting to check into our Airbnb in evergreen for the weekend. It was dumping snow, so they weren't too busy. Their red pepper soup was good but the green chile was even better!!! Comes with focaccia bread. We also got 2 wine flights. The staff working were so nice and helpful when picking wines. Cute little winery. We went in Jan so it was snowy. It's right on the creek, so I can only imagine how gorgeous is it on the patio in the summer! Will def stop by anytime I'm in evergreen :)

    Jenny A.

    Cute little place in Evergreen. We went for the wine in particular as we enjoying trying new wines. Enjoyed the white wine flight tasting and bonus to have a yummy lunch. Service was fantastic. If we are up that way we will stop again - if even just to pick up a couple bottles of wine.

    Port
    Miranda C.

    Cute little restaurant which had live music playing! The port was delicious and they have lots of other wine options as well! The tomato soup and grilled cheese was the perfect thing on a cold day! The bread was sooo yummy! They also validate parking just let them know once you arrive and they'll provide a code to enter on the website when you're paying for parking! Service was great!

We were almost out of luck, but thankfully one reservation did not show, so after a short wait, they seated us right by the stage. All of the staff were friendly and helped us get settled in, even offering a dog water bowl and little dog yoga mats so they would be comfy on the gravel. We ordered a flight - 6 tastes for $15, highly recommend and we treated ourselves to a post-hike baked brie that was perfect. We found out that if you order three bottles of wine to take home your tasting is free, so naturally... :) I will call ahead and make a reservation next time so we can be seated right by the river. Aspen Peak has such a lovely chill vibe and delicious reds whites and rosés!

The winery is on one end of Main Street, and has patio seating (there was live music outside), as well as an interior tasting room. Right off the bat, we didn't think either of the people working were overly friendly, and didn't really make us feel overly welcome. We decided to do two flights of red wine - kind of insane to me that a flight was $40, thank god we had a 2 for 1 discount. The other people in my party also said they'd give the experience a 2 or 3 stars - price was unbelievably expensive (especially when you can go down the street at Carboy and do a flight for half the price). No one was impressed by the service either - for a flight, I'd expect a little more background and explanation of the wines, but the person came and dropped off beakers of all the wine with a quick explanation then left it up to us to pour our own wines. The wines themselves were nothing spectacular either, two from Colorado and two from California grapes (I think) - we liked the blend but that was about it. Unfortunately would not recommend this place to others or come back.

I think the only thing that would make it a perfect 5/5 Star brunch would be bigger forks, add knives, more napkins, & smoother ordering process.

Although I had waited this long to write about the place, everything I experienced back then still lingers in my brain. Hence, I am taking the time to write about it. I was going to utilize the "stand up bar tasting of however many wines you can sample" at the price of $20. Unfortunately, the bar was full for that. I was thus kindly asked to get a table and do a flight at the price of $10. What? Only $10? Sure, why not!?!? My waiter (young man in his 20's) was most welcoming and kind-hearted. I forgot his name after the passing of the time. His attentiveness was top-notch. After getting a few suggestions and advice from my wonderful waiter, I went with Roussanne and Orange Muscat as white, Malbec, Carignon and Cabernet Sauvignon as red for my wine flight. Let's not forget to mention. Balistreri's wines are all natural Colorado wines with no sulfites, no additives and are not filtered or fined. What's not to like about all that criteria that they can offer. For food, I got the cheese board ($18 as of May 2026.) I looked at other menu items and the prices for them were quite reasonable despite the fact that this place emits very high-end restaurant feel. After all, this is a family-run business that cares about serving people in the community. I feel that this is their way to say thank you to those who support them. In a neighborhood where three different interstates intertwine, unless someone told you about it, you wouldn't think such a place existed in this North Washington neighborhood. I discovered this place while ago. I am not sure why I had waited this long to visit and see it for myself. Better late than never. Palisade is a gem in the western Colorado but it's at least 4-hour drive from Denver. If you want to save some time and spend some quality time at a winery in a beautiful setting, Balistreri is within your reach.
