(We stopped in Durango for a short period of time on a roadtrip) This was also the first time I've ever seen "frings" on a menu, it's just a mix of fries and onion rings and it was perfect because I wanted both and couldn't decide. The onion rings in particular were phenomenal. I also loved the little street-side dining area. It was a great spot to enjoy the meal outside and get some fresh air. The service was friendly and helpful, and they answered all of our questions with honest recommendations. I also like that you can order from an iPad if there's a line and you already know what you want. Definitely a place I'd recommend and happily come back to!

They had a ton of different, classic options to choose from. This is your typical drive-in burger spot. The staff gave some suggestions, which I appreciated since it was my first time there. My group ordered the chicken fried steak sandwich, the fish sandwich, sweet potato fries, and the jala bites. The food was hot and tasted good. I know you're wondering why we got fish, but I wanted something light! It didn't taste fishy and was yummy for a random joint in Cortez. The jala bites were a personal favorite, as they seemed homemade. It wasn't a classic jalapeno-cream cheese situation, but instead involved chopped jalapenos, nacho cheese, and it was all fried with a crispy outer shell. I'd come back for those alone! I'd definitely come back and try more. The price was fantastic too.

The restaurant was very busy when we arrived, but they got us seated much faster than we expected. Even with only two waitresses who were also handling hostess duties, the service was outstanding. They stayed friendly, attentive, and kept everything running smoothly. We ordered the one egg, potatoes, and biscuit combo, along with the pancake, potato, and bacon plate. Everything arrived hot and in a very reasonable amount of time. The potatoes were well-seasoned and full of flavor, and the biscuits tasted fresh and homemade. The pancake and bacon rounded out a delicious breakfast. The prices were very fair, the atmosphere was cozy and welcoming, and they also offer outdoor seating if you want to enjoy the mountain air. Overall, this is an excellent breakfast spot in Silverton, and we'd happily eat here again!

This café is conveniently located about 0.4 miles from the Silverton Train Station, making it an…read moreeasy walk for visitors arriving by train. If you're visiting on the Durango & Silverton train, I recommend heading there promptly upon arrival, as the restaurants in town fill up quickly and long wait times can consume much of your limited time in Silverton. The café serves breakfast and lunch, opening at 7am, stop serving breakfast at 10:40 a.m. and closing at 2:30 p.m. During my visit, I ordered the Frito Pie, a dish featuring chili topped with lettuce, tomatoes, onions, and Frito corn chips. While it was enjoyable, it lacked the level of spice I had expected from a Southwest Colorado specialty. My son ordered the Philly cheesesteak sandwich and described it as decent. For dessert, I was fortunate to get the last slice of apple pie available, although they had already run out of whipped cream. The interior has a cozy, welcoming atmosphere, but seating is limited and there is no air conditioning. Since temperatures reached 82°F during our visit, we opted to sit outside. Service was average, but the food arrived quickly, which was appreciated. One of the biggest advantages of dining here was avoiding the long lines that had formed at other restaurants. As we walked back to the train station, we noticed many people still waiting to be seated and served. Overall, this is a good option for train passengers looking for a convenient meal in Silverton, especially if you arrive early enough to beat the crowds.

I don't know if it can be seen from the photo or not how colossally burnt and hard the chicken…read morefried steak was. To her credit, our kind waitress had the kitchen quickly make me a new one, but honestly it was still borderline inedible. This time, due to the salt. Not only was the meat heavily salted, but the breading was overly salted as well. I couldn't even taste the meat or the breading (or even the potatoes) because it wasn't a giant plate of salt. I ate all the broccolini, a few bites of potatoes, and a few bites of steak. I hate that all restaurants, because of patrons and their salt-conditioned palates, serve the most sodium-laden monstrosities possible. I didn't feel good eating it, I didn't want to eat more than a few bites, and I left the restaurant full of regret for the bites I did take. On the plus side, the beer is exceptionally tasty, and my kids both enjoyed their meals. We are leaving tomorrow and so we won't be back, but I wouldn't be back otherwise as well.

We all ordered drinks and some food items. The spinach/artichoke dip was a bit heavy and overcooked. You def could not dip your chips in it. I got the poblano chx fried steak.

We walked in and were immediately greeted by one of the bartenders and told to sit wherever we liked. We found a nice booth off to the side of the bar area. Our server Patrick stopped by the booth and pointed us to the food menu in the chalkboard. We also had another server but I didn't catch her name. They were both very friendly and attentive. I ordered the special for the day. A green chili Rueben & fries. Wow, this sandwich was so delicious! What a creative combination of flavors. Even the slaw in the Rueben included the green chilis. The fries were hot and crispy. My husband ordered the spicy BBQ pulled pork tacos. He said the tacos were amazing and the flavors were off the charts. They were topped with a slaw and pickles. The side of "tortilla chips" had a dusting of a very flavorful spice. Not sure what it was but very tasty. Looking over the menu, this restaurant has some very creative dishes.
