    Diner Food Elevated..:)
    Avram L.

    "Take Five".. Though I'm going out of my way.. Just so I can pass by each day Not a single word do we say It's a pantomime and not a play After a short wait, we settled into a nice Booth at "Oscar's Cafe"... The Lass, morning dined, on.. "Hunter's Breakfast" Corned beef hash, served with two eggs, hashbrowns. She said it was most delish w. a smile..:) The Lad, grubbed on.. "Oscar's Chicken Fried Steak" Topped with breakfast country gravy, served with hashbrowns (hold the eggs). This was the most juicy, perfectly cooked scrumptious Chicken Fried Steak of all time! The gravy and from scratch hash browns, more like a Latke wanna be, were sinfully good. Washed down w. a glass of "OJ" by the Lass and a glass of "Cranberry Juice" by the Lad. Oscar's Cafe is a fun, hopping busy, Good culinary treat. Still, I know our eyes often meet.. I feel tingles down to my feet When you smile, that's much too discreet.. Sends me on my way.. Wouldn't it be better Not to be so polite.. You could offer a light.. Start a little conversation now It's alright, just take five.. Just take five Just Take Five... Best, Avram D. Brubeck Jr.

    Eggs, Benedict

    Oscar's is a hometown hidden gem where only the locals go. It's in strip mall tucked away from the tourists. But for the lucky tourists that do find it oh my are you in for some excellent food and friendly people and cutely decorated slice of heaven. They served actual homemade hash browns not that frozen premade kind. Extra crispy didn't even have to ask. I ordered my all time favorite eggs Benedict and it was the best on the planet hands down or up. Thin sliced ham, crispy English muffins and rich hollandaise sauce. Sometimes I wish I could eat way more than I can but I just can't. I also had some of the best tea from Sundrop Tea. They are on instagram. I bought a box of jasmine moon. I'm picking it up tomorrow due to her being out of it today. The place was extremely clean and fun to look around.

    Fantastic breakfast location! We were all Pleased with what we ordered and the staff was very helpful. They were slammed on a summer Saturday morning, but we did not feel rushed or under servers! Highly recommend!

    Such a fun place and worth the wait!! My son was obsessed with the little train that goes around the top. The menu was vast and a bit overwhelming! I got an avocado omelet and my husband got the Durango scramble. Both were delicious! The space is super small and cramped, especially with kids but all just adds to the charm!

We started with the Bavarian pretzel, which was served with beer cheese and mustard. It was delicious and fresh! I then had the southwestern burger, which is always a favorite of mine because of the green chilis. The burgers are always cooked nicely (I order medium) and I was able to substitute a side salad, which was easily one of the best side salads I've ever had at a brewery. We are doing dry January, so no beers this time, but had a lovely hop water that they brew there and even left with a growler full. Highly recommend Steamworks for an authentic Durango experience or if you're just trying to catch a game or hangout with friends. It definitely has fun, local brewery vibes. We will definitely be back!

    There are a lot of breweries to choose from in Durango, and during our family vacation we tried…read morequite a few of them. One of our favorites was Steamworks Brewery in downtown Durango. The location was perfect for us because we were able to easily walk there from our hotel. We were lucky enough to get outdoor seating, which made the experience even better. It was great to sit outside and enjoy the beautiful Durango weather, and people watch while having dinner. We decided to do a beer flight so we could sample a variety of their beers before committing to a full pint. It was a great way to try different styles, and we each ended up finding a favorite. Everything we tried was really good. My husband liked their Buffalo wings and whiskey burger, I enjoyed the seared tuna bowl, and our kids liked their pizza. It is definitely a busy and popular spot, especially during peak vacation times, so I would recommend putting your name in early and expecting there could be a wait. In our opinion it was worth it. Steamworks had a great casual vibe that worked well for both families and adults wanting to enjoy a brewery experience. The downtown location adds to the charm, and it definitely felt like one of those must visit spots while in Durango.

First, the good stuff. Live music and lots of seating is always a plus. We had a party of nine and were able to find seating both inside and outside - not together but at two tables, next to one another. Totally cool. The wait staff were all pretty friendly and even though there were signs everywhere to bus your own tables, we did have folks stop by to take away our dishes and check on things. Everyone was smiling and in good moods. One of our dishes was tasty as well: lots of love for the fish and chips. We also ordered the chicken sandwich and loaded fries. Both were alright. The sandwich was bland and clocked in at $20 when you added cheese. It did come with fries, but isn't affordable. Same for the loaded fries: a smaller portion and needed more cheese. I would have loved sour cream as well. Sadly, also not affordable. The worst item, though, was our mozzarella sticks and salsa. These guys had zero flavor, weren't seasoned and weren't warm enough. I'm positive these were from a frozen bag. If someone from management is reading, def change brands/vendors. These were tasteless. We ordered drinks, all with mixed reviews expect my spicy Paloma (Paloma Inferno). The marg was too sweet and not balanced. The parents ordered crown and ginger ale. No Sprite or 7Up products so ginger ale, it was. The issue there was the way the staff made it. They added the alcohol, then poured the ginger ale, and topped it with ice. Completely backwards and created a watered down drink immediately. Overall, we ordered two entrees, two appetizers and had four cocktails. $120 with tip. Absolutely not affordable. You shouldn't need to order at the counter, seat yourself, grab your own waters and bus your own tables for these prices. The food should align as well.

    Shameful experience…read more I was enjoying some live music on a Friday evening when the owner came out and began yelling profanities and threatening a former employee in full display of the other patrons. He shouted at him saying "Get the F out of my bar" and "I can't wait to see you in town so I can beat your a$s". What a joke! This person clearly has zero understanding of hospitality or leadership, to say the least. Behavior like this from management is likely why the place is going out of business. Don't waste your time or money.

Lucky for me, they had so many food options from all the food trucks and a bar at the center. I decided to eat at the slider food truck and ordered one fliet mignon slider and the Cajun fries.

We ended up grabbing at table just in time before we experienced torrential rain. Mind you, it had been sunny and 78 degrees just five minutes before and suddenly was freezing. Well, my version of freezing. Finally the buzzer went off and my sister picked up my order. We all shared the Cajun fries because the portion was definitely shareable and they were so good. The filet slider really impressed me! The blue cheese and caramelized onions were the perfect touch. I'll definitely be coming back here next time I'm in Durango!
