The menu features a range of options, including sandwiches, steaks, pasta, seafood, and salads, catering to different tastes. The food is consistently excellent and flavorful, cooked to perfection. Standout dishes include seared salmon with almond rice and spring peas, and the Lobster and compressed Pineapple. The service is attentive and friendly, with waitstaff always friendly and prompt. The bartenders hit the spot on the cocktails, and Phil, the bartender, is especially outstanding. The restaurant's location offers a stunning view of the surrounding landscape and overlooks the Garden of the Gods, making it a perfect spot for romantic nights out or special occasions. Guests can enjoy outdoor dining with great views and a beautiful setting, especially during Sunday Brunch when they can have the best Chilaquillas in Colorado. The views are truly magnificent, with deer roaming around and the Red Rocks from Garden of the Gods creating a breathtaking backdrop. The drinks are as extravagant as the interior, with smoked old fashions and pretty garnishes, served by kind bartenders with great personalities. The menu also features interesting options like Tandoori Carrots and Lion's Mane Mushrooms, adding to the variety. While some dishes like pea risotto and pork belly received mixed reviews for portion size and dryness, the overall experience is enhanced by beautifully presented food and spectacular scenery. The ambience is soothing, and the entertainment is rated five stars. The restaurant is reasonably affordable considering the stunning views. Guests have enjoyed special occasions here, like celebrating birthdays, with outstanding service from staff like Phil. During holidays, the Thanksgiving day buffet was well-liked, even if it was more of a hybrid buffet requiring ordering from a set menu. Guests appreciate the gorgeous views while dining, making it a highly recommended destination for a memorable meal and a truly beautiful view. The cinnamon roll, though a bit dry, was filling and topped with perfect pecans, adding a sweet touch to the experience.
