Top notch restaurant in the sweetest little town of Mancos! The oysters and steak are to die for, but the ever changing menu is always a nice to treat to check out. Service is amazing. Whether you live or are staying in or around the area, this place is a must!

Perfect place to celebrate! I took my friend here to thank her for being my local tour guide. The Boathouse is first class all the way; terrific food, memorable atmosphere, and first class service. We shared the cheese plate appetizer and the radicchio salad. I had the flatiron steak and my friend enjoyed her duck leg. We had leftovers and unfortunately no room for desert. The vegetables in the salad are fresh and grown locally. The cheese was an excellent mix of soft and hard, four excellent choices. The flatiron steak was cooked to perfection, very tender, and it tasted better than most filet mignon steaks I have had. The owner explained that they discovered a precious local rancher who provides the best Wagyu beef you could find. My friend has several food restrictions that took a while to explain to the waitress. It was no problem for this kitchen. Our waitress was fully on top of our order and all of our needs throughout the dinner, and very good at helping to make selections. You will enjoy your time here, and you will want to return quickly.

Went on Sunday and had not only a really spectacular meal and wine but also the friendliest service. Our server really knew the menu and wine list and was very knowledgeable about the wine pairings. Spendy but oh so worth it!

While I was very excited to come to this restaurant, thanks to my mother’s praises of the delicious food, my excitement was quickly cut short by the condescending owner. Having just come from a wedding, we acquired one extra guest, which was apparently an inconvenience to the owner. We even offered to bring in our own chair.
Our waitress, Courtney, however, was a sweetheart and I adored her. She was very sweet to my mother (the bride) and everyone else at the table. I do not blame any of my lesser experience on her.
The food was delicious, my wagu steak being flavorful and juicy, however, I didn’t notice that it was too rare in the middle until I was halfway through my meal. I had an upset stomach the rest of the night. I usually order my steak medium rare, so it may have also been just a bad night for me, so I’m not going to blame the restaurant too much. Though another member of my party said the cod fritters were very dry, which she was very sad about.
Hopefully, if I ever up back, I’ll have a better experience.

I recently dined at The Boathouse on Grand after attending a wedding, and unfortunately, the experience was overshadowed by the rude behavior of the owner. We arrived and needed to add one person to our reservation. Instead of accommodating us, the owner greeted us with a condescending and rude tone, making it clear that our request was a nuisance. We even went as far as providing our own fold out chair just so our guest could sit at the same table.
Their dismissive attitude made the entire dinner uncomfortable, especially after such a joyful occasion. We felt belittled rather than welcomed, which completely soured our evening. The food was decent, but the atmosphere was tainted by this interaction. It’s a shame that a restaurant with such potential is let down by its owner’s poor customer service. I won't be returning and I wouldn't recommend anyone else to come to this restaurant.
Our server Courtney was amazing and the main highlight of our experience at The Boathouse on Grand. She was very welcoming and accommodating for our party.

What a treat! Took our family of six out for a special dinner and we weren’t disappointed. The oysters were very fresh and delicious and everyone loved their entrees. We will be back.
First up was the pan con tomate. The tomatoes were some of the most delicious tomatoes I have ever tasted. My partner and I took great care to grow tomatoes organically and we had not tasted anything else that could compare until we came to The Boathouse on Grand.
Next up was the arugula salad which was perfectly balanced with ingredients that tasted fresh-the arugula was notably delicious and not overly bitter.
The lamb bites were magnificent, and we almost finished them before remembering the dipping sauce which was also delicious.
The ribeye was extraordinary and yet again, cooked to perfection. When paired when a Rioja wine the experience was spiritual. The caramelized onions were also delicious.
The grand finale was the banana cream pie. What a masterpiece. Visually stunning and elegant with a delicate organic taste that elevates the ingredients. It will give you goosebumps.
The service and ambience were perfection. There are nights out to eat and then there are one-of-a-kind experiences.
We laughed like kids on our walk back in disbelief of having found a restaurant that Michelin needs to know about.
Thank you Chef Dave and team.
