My wife and I visited this restaurant for the first time this evening. The location in the middle…read moreof town was convenient, there was adequate, free parking diagonally on the street in front of the restaurant, the outside was nicely decorated, the inside of the restaurant was rather plain looking, but clean and had some interesting photos and paintings on the walls, no music was playing, there was no free WiFi, our server was nicely but I couldn't understand his heavily accented English, we wanted a table that would sit us closer to the floor, but the server wouldn't let us sit at either of the open tables with low seating because there were only two of us (rude and acceptable), the menu was limited but okay, our meals were tasty but quite expensive, and the restrooms were large and clean without any bad smell.

Started off with a bang, somewhat eclectic menu until their (Asian food) chef left and now it's…read morejust another restaurant with standard fare, steaks and burgers. Also, and this has happened before, the young lady/waitress/owner etc does not have a pleasant attitude and her follow up is close to abysmal inasmuch as we have to waive her over for any additional requests. We don't recall anytime that after we placed the order, received the order or were ready to pay the bill that she just stopped by to see if we needed anything. Seems like she was doing community service rather than trying to be a successful restaurant. We wish them luck, this town needs a restaurant that is not your standard fare.

This is definitely worthwhile if you're here in Cañon city visiting the royal gorge.

The Real Sugar Soda was excellent; I sampled everything but the diet cola. My wife said the Black Cherry was the best, but I am partial to the Dr. Doctor. We were too full to try a malt so we will head back tomorrow. :-)

I ordered the Popper Burger, which comes with two jalapeño poppers right inside the burger. It definitely has a little kick if you like spicy food, and the burger itself was incredibly juicy and delicious. Honestly, it was one of the best burgers I've ever had, and that's coming from someone from Los Angeles, where there are no shortage of amazing burger places. I also tried the banana cream pie shake, and wow... it was one of the best milkshakes I've ever had. It was so good that every time we went back, I ordered the exact same meal. No regrets! I also have to give a huge shoutout to the staff. There were around 20 of us from the fire crew ordering at the same time, and they got all of our food out quickly without missing a beat. Great food, excellent service, and a place I'd absolutely recommend if you're anywhere near the area.

Very consistent in all aspects of a restaurant; food taste, presentation and speed. The service is good. Although you order at the counter like a fast food place they bring the food out to your table. There is plenty of seating. The restaurant is always clean and inviting. Salida is a small town compared to many places in Colorado. So the competition may not be as much as say if they were in Denver but if they were there they would still shine because they're just that good. The burgers are very tasty, the fries are great, a large fry will feed two people easily. The shakes are really good. Just like in the past they come out with a full glass plus the remainder of shake in the stainless mixing cup. It's well worth the stop if you're in town and hungry.
