On our first night at the Gaylord Rockies, we had dinner at the Fortunate Prospector where we were…read more"fortunate" to have cocktails and food because we are "fortunate" people. Our server was delightful as we reviewed the hard cover menus with the cool design that reminded me of "The Wind and the Willows". The pub interior certainly has the wooden aesthetic of a pub, without coming off as an authentic. But this is within the Gaylord Rockies so it does add variety to the options for restaurants and bars available. For my meal, I enjoyed the Whiskey Wings that were fried well and had a lovely sweet glaze with buttermilk ranch for dipping. The picked Fresno peppers were a nice touch as well. I washed it down with a couple of Bees Knees cocktails that brought me to a place of enormous well being. The Fortunate Prospector is a good option to enjoy food and drinks if you are staying at the Gaylord Rockies.

However, the food I've had at the bar, at the conference and now at this restaurant have been surprisingly good. I stand corrected on what I expected from the quality of the food. I'll start by saying the service is absolutely incredible. I came in here 35 minutes to closing and was never rushed for hurried along. My server, Haylie, was an absolute gem and was very engaging in conversation. The ambience is definitely Denver meets Lodge meets rustic meets current and is a little shtick but definitely warm and inviting. The pricing is a little bit higher than normal but this is a resort and as far as Resort pricing goes if it's completely normal. Haylie recommended the cottage pie and it did not disappoint. The mashed potatoes or soft and flavorful the slash beef underneath was tender and seasoned well. All in all is really good take on a traditional Shepherd's pie. I understand now why the place gets decent ratings. It seems like it's a really solid meal at decent pricing with impeccable service. Haylie thank you so much for guiding me in the right direction. Would easily come back here

Not many restaurant choices nearby either nor did I want to drive around after being on the road all day. Hard to believe we have some 1-star review cry babies here LOL. Julio was on the bar, service was excellent. Easily the best Turkey club sandwich I've had in recent memory. All fresh made to order and the bacon was cooked perfectly not tooth cracking like many are. Skipped the fries went side salad with balsamic. The dressing was excellent. Cool atmosphere in the lobby. Plenty of LEDs. Elevator ride up to your room. Glad I stopped in highly recommended for airport travelers.

There was an indoor waterfall, insanely high buttresses, fireplaces, multiple restaurants, and yes, actual trees growing in the middle of the dining area. I had to remind myself I wasn't outside. We didn't have to wait to be seated, which was a great start. The dinner menu was a little limited, but I had a feeling it was going to be good. I ordered the bison meatloaf and wow... it practically melted in my mouth. The wine mushroom reduction brought everything together perfectly. The roasted cauliflower and Brussels sprouts had the best crunch, and the mashed potatoes were so creamy and delicate there were no leftovers. My dad ordered the roasted chicken and said it was incredibly moist and flavorful. My mom's bison burger was juicy, tender, and cooked perfectly. The double fried French fries absolutely stole the show though. Somehow they were extra crispy without being overdone. For dessert we shared the skillet cookie, and it was the perfect sweet, indulgent ending to the meal. After a full day of traveling, this was exactly what we needed. We finished the evening sitting outside by the fire with everyone relaxing around us, and it was the perfect way to kick off our trip. I'd happily come back for that meatloaf alone.

They had already placed my order (Wagyu Classic Burger) so when I arrived, within a minute after sitting down, they brought it out. The server stuck around until I had arrived before ending her shift - I was told she was an exceptional server! As for the food. The Wagyu burger was delicious - not 100% sure it justified the cost but the service made up for it. The salad was great as well! Thanks!

This did not disappoint! Charlotte and Juliana helped me with my order and all of the many substitutions to make sure nothing had dairy or eggs.

I tried drinks and food here several times during my stay and had a consistently good experience. The frozen cocktails are small but refreshing and melt quickly in the sun. The Hummus and Pita and Arapahoe Cobb Salad were fresh and well-balanced. The kids' burger and fries worked well for a lighter adult meal, the fries stay crispy thanks to a light batter. Asking for condiments upfront saved time. A solid option for poolside dining and drinks, especially when you don't want to leave your chair.

My granddaughter had the Chicken Tenders with Fruit and I had a Cheeseburger and Fries. We ordered, paid and they give you a buzzer so you know when your food is ready. The food seemed to take awhile, but was fresh when it arrived. As others mention, the burgers are well done (but mine was moist) and I love the char broiled taste. The rolls are made fresh in-house and delicious. The fries are batter fried and were crisp (I would have like a bit less salt). My granddaughters fruit cup was fresh and amazing with honey dew, cantaloupe and pine apple. The portion of Chicken Tenders were generous. The breading was flavorful and crispy. Kid's meals are only $10 (no drink included). Brittany, our server, was super friendly and prepared cold drinks for us to sip while we waited. There are plenty of clean tables near the pool to sit and eat. All in all, a perfect little lunch and we didn't have to leave the pool.

Like most hotel bars, the drinks and food can be expensive, but the bartenders are on point with the cocktails. Their smoked old-fashioned drinks were good, the Negronis were very crushable, as was its bourbon cousin, the Boulevardier. The shrimp appetizer that my wife ordered was also very good, and a nice starter before we had dinner at the English Pub. It's a good spot to experience sunsets as you knock back a drink or two, or watch the night sky, so long as it's not overcast or raining.

This is definitely where you want to be at sunset. The floor-to-ceiling wall of windows creates a stunning backdrop for Embers Lodge and elevates the entire atmosphere.

I would highly recommend this bar to anyone staying at or visiting the resort.
