    Cheese burger and cosmo
    Alyson C.

    These burgers are just amazing... I can't get enough. I love the bartender, she is always so attentive. I believe her name is Shannon. There is such a chill vibe to the inside and it feels like family.

    I ordered the western burger ($17) which had bacon, fired onions , bbq sauce , cheese , and pickles. It came out in about 20 minutes. The burger was a bit too greasy for me but it was moist and flavorful. The bacon could've been more crispier, but still meshed well with the burger. Server could've came around a little more frequent to refill drinks. Overall a bit pricy for just a burger as fries are not included, but it still a decent spot for a burger. Food(50%): 6.7 Staff/service(25%): 6.0 Value(25%): 5.5 Overall: 6.3/10

    While in Breckenridge we decided the we needed to grab something to eat and we chose Empire Burger once again. Food and service were once again amazing! This time we ordered the trailer tots, just as good this time as last. My niece had the guac burger, I had the western burger and I can't remember what my sister got but all so moist and flavorful. Place is small and always packed but the food and service is so worth it.

    Got some apps to go and wasn't overly impressed. I was quoted 5-7 mins for my order. 15 mins later, I asked for an update. Guy who took my order thought someone else was helping me. Woman said it was being boxed up as the original guy brought it out. Fried cheese was in a sleeve, not a box. No napkins or anything else in the bag. Zucchini chips were soggy and kind of tasteless. Fried cheese was ok, but not worth the trouble. Probably should've just gone somewhere else.

    oh but the fish tacos

    i feel like i cheated on my lover for ordering fish tacos at a 99% exclusive burger place but it was the best decision and im a better person for it

    Trailer tots

    What a great little burger place this is! I got the bacon cheeseburger and it was fantastic. Their sauces are all home made and taste awesome. We got the trailer tots and they were super flavorful and large portion size also. My wife got the western burger and loved that also. Service was top notch and the atmosphere was chill and relaxed.

    An awesome burger spot in Breckenridge! We enjoyed the regular cheese burger and bacon burger. The seasonal drinks were fun too. A staple spot for a good, thick burger.

Walking in on a cold February day, the mood and ambiance were warm and inviting. The downstairs bar was lively, and the wood ceiling and decor definitely gave off a classic aged lodge feel. We were seated upstairs per our Yelp reservations. A collection of canteens hung on the wall, which sparked a fun conversation and history lesson for my twins. Since they're part of the CamelBak and Stanley cup generation, they hadn't seen anything like them before. My son was impressed by the size of the kids' burger, and the fries were great. The rest of us had the NY Strip. I'd say it was good, but not great--though I did appreciate the blackened seasoning and the chimichurri. The grilled asparagus, however, was simply fantastic. The showstopper was the upside-down apple pie with what seemed to be homemade vanilla ice cream. Both were generous portions and kindly comped by our server for my birthday. I ordered my standard Ranch Water, though it unfortunately didn't come in their traditional canteen cup. Overall, it's a great spot. I look forward to visiting again on our next trip to Colorado.

The food here is really old, which sounds like a bad thing but in this case it's actually really good because it's sourdough that's been aged for nine years (kinda like how cheese does that I think). They kinda incorporate it into every single part of the meal, which is really cool. I mean if you have a theme stick to it, you go girl! It also kinda feels like a mining company store in here, which is really silly. I don't remember our servers name, half of my party think it's Eric and the other half think it's Evan, but either way he was mega awesome sauce (I just asked and his name is Torin, we were really far off sorry). The deserts were heavenly, the Tiramisu was beautiful and you can tell they made it in house. DONT EVEN GET ME STARTED ON THE COOKIES!! Woah dude, they were crazy. I now can whole heartedly tell you I know what Kermit meant when he said "Wherever you find love, it feels like Christmas". Top 10 pizzas, beats NYC and puts Brooklyn in a head to head match. Even the guy on the bus from Chicago said it gave his local place back home a run for its money!

We have never done this at a restaurant before, but we went to Twist 2 nights in a row. It is that good! We had to go back because we wanted to taste everything on the menu that we could. We had a friend who was there the same day on the other side of the restaurant that we did not see, but he said it was the best pasta dish in Colorado! Everyone was so accommodating to our group of 4 adults and 2 children. We felt at home in the beautiful Victorian home setting. We sat outside in the front yard with a majestic view of the mountains and sat back and enjoyed great food, great wine, and stellar service (shout out to Connor who took care of us the first night). They have a Happy Hour that is fabulous, but please do not limit yourself to the Happy Hour menu. Everything on the menu is fantastic. Our group kept debating what dish was the best....so many favorites. Here are some of our favorites in no particular order: Elote Street Corn Bibb - We made salad wraps of charred corn, cotija cheese, bacon and tomatoes...) Mussels - I know every restaurant has a mussel dish on their menu, but these were sublime. Love the touch of sausage to the dish! Cheese & Charcuterie Board - excellent, excellent curation! Great local cheeses paired with artisan meats...cudos on the Duck Prosciutto! Lobster Roll - All Lobster, Butter on a toasted bun....simple and so good! Shrimp and Pancetta Tagliatelle - The pasta is charred. Yes you heard that right charred pasta. The chef explained he experienced a similar dish in Italy during his travels and came back home to replicate it in his Restaurant - Thank You Chef Delicious! As our friend said "Best Pasta Dish in Colorado!" We live in the Chicagoland area, but can't wait to go back and try everything on the menu! This is a long winded review and I could go on and on, but do yourself a favor and head to the mountains and Twist in Breckenridge. It is very pocketbook friendly compared to the quality food, and exceptional service you receive!

We shared the lamb chops (not pictured), the escargot, and the almond crusted ruby red trout. It was all delicious, but the trout was especially phenomenal. It's been weeks, and I am still daydreaming about it. While the food was excellent, the wait between dishes was a bit long. While waiting, we were fortunate to enjoy homemade focaccia, fresh from the kitchen. We absolutely loved Twist. We will definitely be back next time we are in town!
