    Sushito peppers - delicious sauce too!
    Rachel M.

    Such an incredible place! Everything we have had was outstanding. A great place for an excellent meal in a really awesome town.

    Eureka Station.  Wall hangings just inside front door.

    Saw lots of great reviews on Yelp for this one. Visited with my wife on Saturday, October 8, 2022, for dinner. We loved the wall hangings in here and the bartender had Van Halen's 1984 album going on vinyl. A procession of locals came through the door as we waited to order. A very good sign. We ordered the pork belly appetizer ($14) from Rachel. This came on a bed of coleslaw, and was topped with sesame seeds and wontons. The appetizer had a huge portion of perfectly cooked pork belly; moist and the wontons and sesame seeds gave it contrasting textures. We both ordered the bison lasagna ($22 each). I had the Mexican Logger ($6) by Ska and my wife drank a Fat Tire ($6). The lasagna came with two pieces of toasted, buttered, crostini bread and a small portion of spinach. I would have loved some fresh garlic on that bread, but it still tasted good. The bison had a wonderful, non-gamey taste and I enjoyed the three-cheese blend: parmesan, mozzarella, and ricotta. My lasagna came with the house chop salad. This chop consisted of shredded kale, Brussel sprouts, toasted almonds, pecorino cheese, topped with lemon mustard vinaigrette. My fresh salad bursted with the sharp tang of the vinaigrette. A lovely pairing. I don't know who the chef is, but a raise is warranted! Everything tasted great and the portions were large. Visit this establishment for drinks and a delicious meal. Note: they are closed Mondays and Tuesdays. They only open for dinner from 5 til 9 PM on other days of the week. The bar is open till 11 PM.

    I would give less than 1 star if I could. The food here was actually not all that bad, but our experience with the staff blacklisted this restaurant for me. We checked in at approximately 6pm asking for a table for 2. The hostess took our name and number. We were told 20-30 mins, which I felt was very reasonable. We hung out inside for a bit, but there was nowhere to stand, so we decided to sit in our car while waiting, which was right out front. After 45 minutes had gone by, we decided to check with the hostess for an estimated timeframe. We were treated extremely rudely by both the waitress who came to the front and then subsequently the hostess. We were treated as if we were an inconvenience for simply checking on our table. We were told at this point that it would be another 30 or so minutes, and no guarantee on that time frame either. We decided to walk around the Main Street of silverton while waiting then, since we had already tried the only other (open at the time) restaurant in town. An HOUR later, we came back (fairly annoyed at this point) and saw a group that had checked in behind us was already seated. When I asked why, I was given another extremely rude response that we "weren't around" when she called out our name (despite having taken our phone number down). We explained that we had been waiting for almost two hours already, but we're still told another 20 minutes. Over two hours after we originally checked in, we were finally called for our table. I ordinarily would not even consider waiting this long, but Avalanche brewing had a wait as well by this time. So we were stuck. We ordered the brussel sprouts for an appetizer right away because we were starving. Our waitress was not very nice, although not outright rude either. Our appetizer and water came almost immediately which was so nice, and really actually was quite good. However, our food order of a salmon dish and a lasagna plate took over an hour to come out. While we were seated, smoke came pouring out of the kitchen into the dining area, and I was worried we would need to evacuate. The staff didn't even acknowledge it, and eventually we got our food. The lasagna was bubbling hot and couldn't be eaten right away. The salmon was cold and rubbery. I couldn't believe we waited so long for disgusting, inedible food- and it was outrageous!! I will never return, despite loving the town of Silverton. Highly recommend you skip this place too!

    Stopped in Silverton for one night as we drove the San Juan Skyway on Labor Day weekend, 2022. The place was hopping which was a good sign. Servers seemed a bit frazzled but were welcoming and friendly. We both started with an Old Fashioned and the Shishito peppers (man, there's a ton of 'em but sooo good) then moved on to the main course. Companion had the bison lasagna and I had the BBQ chicken confit...both really very good. Add to all that the friendly chat we had with a young couple sitting next to us and I'd say it was a great experience.

    Literally so fucking good I couldn't believe it. Bison lasagna was fucking amazing crème brûlée was amazing raspberry cobbler was amazing. This is the best spot in Silverton

    Chicken Pasty
    Lisa B.

    I like the pasty on the menu because it's unique. Not as good in this trip as in the past... gigantic chunks of chicken need to be broken up bro. Still a great option in a town with limited options and I look forward to returning next time through.

    Denise K.

    What a cool little restaurant. The place is very clean and great staff. They were helpful in deciding what to order. Plenty of options for drinks as well. Don't forget to order the cobbler, you won't regret it!

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!

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.

However, when I arrived I hunted down a phone number in an old confirmation email and got directly in contact with someone (David) who told me exactly how to find my room key and explained where everything was. The whole place is fairly spacious! There are three floors (my room was a 5-bed dorm style room on the third floor), and the main bathroom is on the third floor too. It had two very clean shower stalls with plenty of toiletries for showers, and 3 bathroom stalls. The whole vibe of the bathroom was old Victorian rustic - very cute. The 5 bed room was shockingly comfy too - there were at least 3 other people in my room (clearly all hikers as well, very friendly), and I was bottom bunk. The beds themselves were super comfy, the pillows seemed like memory foam or something similar, and each bed had a fan and wall outlets. There was enough space under the bunks and on the little desk that the room didn't feel overcrowded with luggage either. And there was a small movie theater area in the basement, kitchen behind the lobby desk that is for everyone to use, and some little tables and chairs around including on the second floor which is where I ate dinner. Ngl, I actually appreciated that there were 3 others in my room and clearly several other people also staying in the Avon because it has a "haunted" feel to it, but having so many other happy/friendly hikers and travelers around just makes it feel cozy and safe. Overall: this place is in silverton, a super cute little Colorado town near tons of awesome hikes and gorgeous million dollar freeway! It is cozy, clean, and has plenty of resources.
