True Grit Cafe Reviews
Tammee and her crew catered our daughters wedding in Ouray this past weekend. Fabulous doesn’t start to describe! She also did the cake which stole the show! Several comments I have gotten since included ‘best wedding cake I’ve ever tasted’ to ‘top 3 cake in my lifetime’.
We followed up by going to the cafe on Sunday where again the food was fantastic!
If you need an event caterer or a place for lunch/dinner True Grit is the place!

The True Grit Cafe offers a delightful dining experience for those seeking delicious food and a unique atmosphere. Located near a park, it provides ample parking and is kid-friendly, with a dedicated children's menu and toys. The cafe is renowned for its great burgers and affordable pricing, as well as its small-town vibe and connection to the classic True Grit movie.
The restaurant has a cozy size, and during busy times, guests may encounter a wait for a table. The True Grit Cafe is a must-visit for John Wayne fans, as it is filled with memorabilia from the legendary actor's films. The staff is friendly and takes the time to answer any questions about the history of the place.
Visitors praise the chicken fried steak, described as a "MONSTER" portion, and the delectable green chili, a local favorite. The Thanksgiving dinner, featuring a variety of traditional dishes, is also highly regarded, with customers enjoying multiple servings. The overall atmosphere, with its charming decor and connection to the True Grit movie, creates a memorable dining experience. The location has film-historic value, making guests feel as if they're sitting at the table with John Wayne himself.
