Our Food Is Art Restaurant

The owner of this restaurant was the most rude person I have ever experienced! He literally berated me for wanting to put in a large order. He told us it would be two hours. I highly recommend NOT going here despite the good food ratings.

Tater tots were alright, vegetarian burger was not good, I could have had grass with pesto sauce instead.

Beautiful Concept, But the Flavor and Value Miss the Mark

I truly love the concept and aesthetic of Our Food Is Art the presentation is thoughtful, and the staff is friendly and welcoming. However, the overall experiences left me a bit disappointed.

The food unfortunately lacked flavor, especially the tacos, which were quite bland and didn’t live up to the visual appeal or the pricing. For what’s being charged, I expected a much more flavorful and fulfilling meal.

That said, the veggie burger was a pleasant surprise fresh, well-prepared, and one of the highlights of the menu. I can tell there’s passion behind this restaurant, but I hope they focus on seasoning and balancing flavors to match the creativity of their concept.

The potential is definitely there just needs a bit more flavor to truly live up to its beautiful name. 🎨🍴

Staff was hospitable and friendly and warm, even though we arrived about 15 minutes before close. Everything was fresh and amazing. We had a fabulous Greek salad, sweet potato tots, tomato soup, and salmon cakes. Lovely, healthy food!!

The food was great. The service not so much. If you’re not in the door an hour before closing time you might or might not get a chance to even place an order. No wait for a table, but you do have to wait in a line to place your food order. And the person taking the orders frequently disappears for several minutes at a time to go into the kitchen to do I don’t know what.

Some of the slowest service I have ever seen. Five people working and only one taking orders, who then disappears in the back or who knows where for five to ten minutes after each order. When we showed up there were approximately 12 people in front of us and after 30 minutes in they had only taken 2 orders. Complete waste of time.

I am never unsatisfied with the amazing selection of food. There are some very delicious and unique burgers as well. The restaurant itself has a really cool vibe and whoever the DJ is, does a great job at picking music. The owners are really great and hard working, along with all of the staff. 100% would recommend to anyone visiting or living in Crestone!

I had the pleasure of dining at this cozy restaurant while visiting the area and is a pure delight! My friend had the Thai tacos and I had the Rojo Chicken Tacos and we shared a large order of French Fries that are truly the best fries I have ever eaten! Make sure to try some of their delicious house made sauces and dressings. They have a great selection of beverages but do yourself a favor and grab a fresh lemonade that is so freshening and not too sweet. The staff are so friendly and buzzing around like bees making sure everything is clean and guests are served quickly. They have great seating inside and out or you can take your food to go and eat in the near by park where they have a wonderful market on Saturday’s.

The food was not good (got the ribs) and I waited an hour for it.

Probably the only spot that was open for dinner in this small town but it does burgers well and that’s all I need. Good beer list as well if you’re looking to decompress. Service can be a while but they’re making food fresh here.

This place blew me away with how friendly and engaging everyone was behind the counter and behind the window. Bethany brought such a warmth and kindness to her customer interactions- it was very uplifting to witness and experience.

The food was good and so was the service. We did a to go order only took about 15 minutes. I would go there again.

Good food, but horribly slow service.

We did not have a good experience. You can tell a lot of locals go here. Everyone seemed to know one another. We waited for about 15 minutes before they took our order at the counter which was weird. They just kept ignoring us and didn’t explain why they wouldn’t take our order. It was busy but nothing too crazy. Then we waited another hour before we got our food. I wish they would have communicated better about the wait. When we finally got our order (which was to go since we were already tired of waiting), we were missing half of it and had to go back. Then they almost gave us someone else’s order.
The food was good (or I was just starving from the wait! I ordered a half salad and salmon cakes (which was expensive for the little we got). Others in our party were disappointed with the portions too. The burgers don’t come with fries. The kids menu was a joke. Don’t order the chicken nuggets or the “fresh fruit” which were just oranges cut as garnishes. We all felt hungry afterwards.
I would not recommend the place to out of towners.
