I have Celiac disease and a shellfish allergy. The restaurant, chef's and staff accommodated my dietary needs. Our server Dale was great and helped me navigate through the menu. Yummy food, great drinks and a delicious meal for our 35th wedding anniversary. We will be back next year and return to the restaurant for another wonderful meal. Thank you for taking care of me so I could have a great meal and a great experience !

This is hands down one of Durango's best dining experiences. The professionalism of the staff is excellent. The craft cocktails made with local fruit like Palisade peaches are absolutely delightful. But the showstopper is the food. You feel like you are dining on a work of art. The combination of flavors along with the creativity with regard to the presentation is unmatched. Not only are you awestruck by what comes out to your table, it's almost impossible not to look...

We loved East by Southwest! The food was inventive and really good. Our waiter helped us with the menu and we picked out appetizers and entrees that we liked. Best Brussels sprouts I've ever had. Drinks were good too. Service was attentive so overall a great night.
