We had a great experience here. We picked it primarily because it had a dog friendly patio, but the food was outstanding. The drinks were well made. Service was prompt and friendly. We will return. We want to try more things on the menu.

The food was delicious! Awesome salmon. Great pear salad. Tasty date and bacon tapas. The waitress Erin is also the bartender. Delicious drinks!! The table shave a view of Pikes Peak! They only have 13 tables and are super busy – a reservation is required!!

Took our motorcycles out for a ride and wanted a good place to stop at for lunch. Found this place online and headed straight there. The reviews were very good and the food looked delicious. When we arrived, we were quickly greeted and sat at a table. Service was reasonably fast and the server was very polite and professional. We received our drinks very quickly and were able to ask questions about the food and recommendations. We ordered calamari, which was the steak kind and not the rings, it was delicious; we ordered burgers which were fresh bison burgers and were cooked to perfection; soup which was chili; andone other item that I don’t remember. Everything was brought out promptly and tasted very good. I would recommend this place. They just changed their menu, so if you haven’t been in a while, you should go.

Phenomenal food once again. Nikki is our favorite server. Her suggestion and description of food, and enthusiasm of beverages make our dinner nights such a pleasure. Every item we have ordered has been fantastic. A group of four friends – we ordered 6 items and shared them all leaving stuffed and star struck. A group of 3 – we’ll order a salad to split and 4 items to share. Thank you chef – superb ingredients and perfectly prepared flavors and qualities of breaded, zesty, and creative perfections.

Friendly and clean little bar/grill. Service was good, my bison burger was really good, just needs seasoning as bison is soooo lean. It was really good just the same. The sweet potato fries were the winner here! Best I’ve ever had!

Snagged some take out as our last meal in Woodland Park. Received the food hot and fresh by the time we got back to our airbnb. I got the fish and chips, the fish came as 4 nugget sized, deliciously battered with a house made tartar sauce. Wish the fish came as bigger pieces. The fries were just okay. Husband got the salmon, which was cooked a perfect medium rare with a lemon dill sauce, delicious!! My favorite was the calamari sticks, cooked to perfection and came with a house made(?) cocktail sauce.

Amazing!! We went out for an boot-leg Mother’s Day, and we all decided that this place was one that we wanted to return to. The employees are friendly, the interior is lovely, the atmosphere is cozy, and the cooking is beyond my own ability to describe in excellence. As for cost, I would definitely say that each item is priced very well. The seared ahi tuna was better than any I have ever tasted, and I know that I definitely will crave this appetizer for months! Now, about the Texas chili soup: this is just as Texan in taste as genuine Texan chili–and that’s coming from a native Texan. Carmen is officially my go-to when I have friends visiting from Texas.

This great Tapas Bar has delicious entrees and drinks. They have beers from local brewerys and a cocktail list of typical mixed drinks. It is cozy and right next to the movie theater in woodland Park, so it’s a great place to have dinner before a movie.

I am weary of businesses nowadays chronically blaming staffing issues on slow service. While staffing may be an issue, I don’t understand how simple courtesy seems optional. Wednesday night approximately 6:45. We stood in front of the hostess stand for twelve minutes while two different gals came and went. There were maybe four tables seated in total, inside and out. No one said…. One moment, sorry for your wait, they didn’t even make eye contact. Finally they seated us, then the next wait began… for drinks. It took forever, but maybe there were only two servers. I don’t know. Two out of the three things we ordered, they were out of…. Sigh. After we ordered, the food actually came out quickly. Reports from the family were that the salmon patties and the Alfredo pasta were quite nice. The bison burger that I had was cooked perfectly but had zero flavor. Alas the fries were good. Neat enough place, but a tidge disappointed.
