    Tomichi Creek Trading Post
    Walter G.

    Tomichi Creek Trading Post is a good frendly place to stop for supplies on the West side of Monarch Pass. My truck malfunctioned near Sargents, Colorado and I stopped into the trading post to use phone to call for a tow from AAA. They took the time to call AAA and arranged for my tow to Gunnison, Colorado for repairs. Thats good service.

    LODGING: We stayed in the Sleeper Cabin for a week. The cabin has four twin beds set up as two bunk beds with one dorm fridge, a microwave, a built in table and chair. There is a little porch with a bench on the front of the cabin facing the RV parking. This may be an inconvenience to some, but it was great for us. We ended up connecting with other campers nightly. Dirt bikers connected to hit the trails and got together to discuss the events of the day. It was a great time. FACILITIES: The store has all of the things a road-side gas station should have plus some. The gas is reasonably priced for such a location. They have diesel. They only have two shower rooms which was generally enough. We had to wait occasionally, but it was ok. The one thing that would have been nice would be a general wash station for the cabins. It would have been nice to have a space to wash dishes after cooking. STAFF: The staff went above and beyond to help us out with everything we needed. They gave advice on things to see and do in nearby towns, marked trails on maps, delivered bedding to the cabin, and more. FOOD: WONDERFUL! Among the group, we had elk meatloaf, beer brewed in Sargent, Tomichi burger, chicken and waffles, Western burger, fish and chips, and Tank 7 Burrito (Tank 7 trail is a different story...). Absolutely Nothing disappointed. TRAILS: RIDE EVERYTHING YOU POSSIBLY CAN! The views are beyond amazing!

    We were in town for the weekend and found this gem. We returned the night after to bring our…read morefriends. Very fresh, farm to table, creative food. Everything was so delicious. Our favorites were the panzanella salad with fresh peaches, tomatoes, goat cheese ect - so so good. Then the eggplant, steak with the pais butter (curry flare), lamb kabob (the kids fought over it) , chicken (we all fought over that) and the potatoes. Also the special dessert peach dish with corn bread and brown butter was incredible. Service was amazing and everyone was so kind. We sat outside on the patio, a rock wall around us, Edison bulb lights, and the jazz fest was going on so we had beautiful music in the background on this warm summer night. It truly was magical. A must do.

Let me tell you, there was a not an ounce of food left on the plates! Multiple people at the table said that this was one of the best meals they have ever had and I have to agree. You just have to try it for yourself. I'm distraught that this meal is so far from home. Unbelievable. And that's just the food! Deserves a Michelin star. The ambiance is beautiful and moody, and the service is impeccable! Our waiter, Brenden, was amazing! He was genuinely so kind and knowledgeable about the menu, and you and truly tell that he loves what he does. Brenden added so much to the ambiance and dinner as well. He was passionate about the farm to table experience! Overall, amazing amazing meal. Deserves the 5 stars more than any other of my 400 yelp reviews.

    This is about as good as it gets in Gunnison, and that's saying quite a bit because there are…read moreseveral very nice restaurants here. The wine list is very nice, and you won't break the bank -- especially at happy hour, with two dollars off each glass of wine between 5 and 7 PM. We had the House Malbec, from Mendoza, Argentina, and it had a delicious flavor and aroma. It was a full bodied and smooth, dark red offering. For an appetizer, we had the Shishati grilled peppers with pesto/cilantro sauce, and they were just fantastic. They are mild, nicely grilled, and beautifully presented. It is served as an appetizer, but please be warned, one out of every nine peppers is exceedingly hot. We had about 12 peppers, and all of them were mild, so we beat the odds! I've had hamburgers all over the world, and I can honestly say I have not had a better cheeseburger than I got right here from the menu at Blackstock. It's in a traditional bun, lightly toasted, with tempura, onion, cracked pepper, mayo, Tabasco, candied and smoked bacon, and it is served with Hand-cut fries. You can add guacamole for a dollar, or blue cheese or Gruyere cheese for another dollar. But I did not add a thing; it was perfect as it came out of the kitchen for me! You will be asked how you want your hamburger cooked, and I chose medium. It could not have been better! It's on the menu at a very fair $21 including your hand-cut fries. My lovely dinner-date had the petite filet mignon, a 5-ounce offering of spectacular steak, served with goat cheese, potato croquettes, asparagus, stewed shallots, served with a Cabernet Demi glaze at $45. It was a large serving, I believe bigger than 5 ounces, because we are taking half of it home in a to-go box! Again, the food was spectacular... really good. We will finish with the flourless chocolate torte, serve with whipped cream and Amarina dark cherries at $11. If I was a betting man, I'd say you're gonna love this place! Take a few pictures, do what I did, and leave a review, because more people need to know the quality of food coming out of this little storefront on a busy street in Gunnison! And if you ask for Danielle, be advised, he's a great server and you will get exactly what you need! He's very attentive, and charming.

They specialize in live fire cooking and we were lucky enough to get a booth right across from the action as you will see in the pics. They use a mix of red and white oak to control the heat along with a series of movable grill plates. We started with a delicious Strawberry Salad that also had watermelon radish and delicate greens lightly tossed in a vinaigrette. Coming from Arizona, I had to try the Pozole and thrilled I did. The rich red broth gave light to the chili heart of this very complex liquid. The pozole had great texture and the shredded pork was tender and outstanding. An excellent example of this favorite dish. The most amazing entree was the main course. It was a shareable Half Elk Rack. While I like medium rare, when it was brought to the table, I thought it might be too rare. As soon as I tasted it, I realized it was perfection. It was so tender and the chew was great, especially on the end pieces that had an incredible bark on the outside. Elk is an extremely lean dish so to add some unctuous notes, they take Fois Gras, and as the fat renders, add huckleberries before putting it in a blender to create a heavenly base. We couldn't resist dragging every bite across the serving plate to savor the magic. As a side dish, we ordered the squash which was also perfectly roasted over the live fire and complimented the dish.

I liked how it actually had N/A liquor in it. My husband got the SECRET GARDEN - loved the lavender earl gray. For a starter, we split the BAHN MI QUAIL - super inventive, never had quail before. Kind of hard to eat around the small bones but loved the stuffed flavors! For dinner, we shared two dishes: ELK SAUSAGE & PEPPERS PASTA and PORK CHOP. The pasta was very so-so, nothing that blew me away. However, the pork chop was super tasty - loved the sauce. For dessert, we shared limoncello sorbet - perfect amount of refreshing and loved the fun strawberry powder! Our server was super nice and attentive. Really nice experience overall!

I passed the loaf around to everyone at my table and we all really liked it. I also got a cute little mason jar for my drink which is so cool. The eatery is inside a little shop so the vibe is very granola in the best way. It smells incredible inside. The staff is also so incredibly nice and gave me several recommendations and made it all seem like incredible options. The price point is high, but i'm learning that's just Colorado in general. I had no issue spending my money here.

The patio was gorgeous, and the food was my favorite meal I had while visiting Crested Butte! I was amazed at how quickly we were helped, especially considering them being short staffed on top of them hosting a wedding party. I mostly wanted to leave a review because our server (I believe his name was Daniel) was incredible. As somebody who works in food service, it can feel like a lot of pressure to tend to each guest, but he was incredibly kind and helpful throughout our entire meal! I asked him for a recommendation between 2 brews I was deciding on, and even after I said I trusted his judgment, he STILL brought me both options for me to try, so that I could decide for myself. He recommended we also add the cheese fondue for the pretzel we got as an appetizer, and I would trust the man with my life... lol. I experienced firsthand how wonderful of a server he was, and was absolutely appalled by the treatment he received from the guests at the table next to us. I understand things happen and communication can be difficult when there's so much going on, but they were giving the server a hard time when they received a drink they supposedly hadn't ordered. The server was able to get it removed from their bill, and it seemed like it had been handled politely and quickly. Not long after I saw their food arrive, I watched one of the guests complain about something... Daniel immediately took it back to the kitchen to fix it, but as he walked away I noticed the group of men laughing at him. While Daniel remained patient, and did everything he could to satisfy them, it was incredibly disheartening to see somebody so kind, who'd been working incredibly hard, be treated the way he was. It seemed to me as though they were finding humor in making him run around. While I like to assume best intent, watching them laugh as he addressed their concerns and rushed to fix them made me feel as though they'd done so on purpose. Daniel took it like a champ, and still continued to check in with us throughout the meal. I hope Bruhaus knows how grateful myself and so many others are, to be served by such kind people! THANK YOU

We called them and they gave us a reservation for 8:15 PM. The service was great. The redheaded bartender was so sweet and came over to make sure we liked all our drinks, the food was pretty good, the portions are big. I felt like we were rushed, apparently they closed at nine and I was surprised to find out when we were given such a late reservation, they were bringing out the birthday dessert and singing, while we were still eating our dinners. One of my friends meals never came out and there were some logistical issues with it so she ended up getting hers packed to go. It was good, but not sure I would prioritize this next time I'm in this area.
