    Pizza that was undercooked
    Penelope A.

    We decided to venture downtown to try out the establishments based on reviews. I was delighted to find the food trucks surrounding the watering hole! There was live entertainment, drinks, and the ambiance was great for an outdoor evening! I really was enjoyed the sliders and the fries that we had. I also ordered a margarita pizza from one of the trucks. Lets start with the sliders and fries..​ BBQ BACON CHEESEBURGER SLIDER ($6) Grass Fed Beef/Cheddar Cheese/Bacon/Onion Ring/Tangy BBQ Sauce/Chipotle Ranch/Lettuce/Tomato. This is a delicious slider that we shared! Had a great flavor with a nice hot bun. Everything melted in my mouth .., great combination. FILET MIGNON SLIDER ($7) Blue Cheese Crumbles/Spinach/Roasted Garlic Aioli/ Caramelized Onion Now this was worth the wait! I loved the flavor with each bite. The bun had a different texture from the bbq slider but it was still great. Now the truffle fries!!!this was a huge portion and I enjoyed the crispness and the freshness of our service! Now for the pizza..this was a disappointment..I felt the pizza dough was not cooked because there were parts where it was still doughy. Maybe a couple more minutes in the oven would have been better. Overall great place to sit down relax and listen to the live entertainment. I would definitely venture back downtown for the sliders and truffle fries in the future.

    Tasty  mignon, garlic, al and blue cheese slider
    Krissy H.

    I had a filet mignon slider that had blue cheese and garlic aïoli on it. It was pretty darn good. I must say cute little outside area with food trucks. Nice when you come with friends because then there's so many choices..

    First the 11th Street Station concept is an absolute winner. Everyone was able to have something different. The weather was perfect for patio dining. The filet mignon slider and truffle fries were absolutely to die for. The meat was tender and delicious, the onions and bleu cheese added to the perfection.

    BBQ bacon slider
    Meagan L.

    Backcountry has the yummiest sliders! There's a good variety to choose from but I went with the BBQ bacon and pork belly! Both were delicious, but I'd probably lean toward the BBQ bacon if I only could pick one. The pork belly was pretty fatty in some places but had great flavor. I also tried the truffle fries and loved them! Service was super fast which is a huge win for me. I especially love where this is located--11th street station. There was live music to enjoy, plenty of fun outdoor seating, and just an overall great atmosphere. I will for sure come back!

    Pork belly and bacon breakfast burrito
    Kiena V.

    We just had the absolute BEST breakfast burrito of our lives. We mixed the pork belly and bacon and shared it because they are huge. Pictures don't do it justice, it's delicious we will be back for sure next time we're in town.

    Bacon breakfast burrito
    Kelly G.

    For those Pride & Prejudice fans out there, in the words of Mr. Collins, "Many years since I have had such an exemplary breakfast burrito." My husband and I were looking for a substantive, to go breakfast. Admittedly tried a couple bakeries with no success. Came across Backcountry doing a quick breakfast Burrito search on yelp and it did not disappoint. The Green Chilis in the burrito really added to the flavor and it was definitely hearty enough for us to share. Legitimately excellent!

    Barbecue bacon slider
    Elizabeth S.

    Delicious food at 11th street station which has great ambiance. Only complaint is I ordered the pork belly slider and got the filet mignon slider. I didn't realize till I had taken a bite and it was delicious so I kept it.

    Spinach breakfast burrito

    The best breakfast burritos I've ever had. Whenever I'm in Durango I come here for breakfast & always order the Spinach breakfast burrito but my friends have tried the others & raves about them just the same.

    Bacon cheeseburger slider -fantastic
    Kelsey M.

    Awesome food, priced right. My husband and I ordered three sliders - the filet minim, bacon cheeseburger and crab cake, with a side of truffle fries. All three were amazing and well put together. You can tell the owner is an excellent chef with details like unique buns for each well thought out. Absolutely would return. We visited Union Social House and they have a location inside the bar where you can order.

    I don't know if it can be seen from the photo or not how colossally burnt and hard the chicken…read morefried steak was. To her credit, our kind waitress had the kitchen quickly make me a new one, but honestly it was still borderline inedible. This time, due to the salt. Not only was the meat heavily salted, but the breading was overly salted as well. I couldn't even taste the meat or the breading (or even the potatoes) because it wasn't a giant plate of salt. I ate all the broccolini, a few bites of potatoes, and a few bites of steak. I hate that all restaurants, because of patrons and their salt-conditioned palates, serve the most sodium-laden monstrosities possible. I didn't feel good eating it, I didn't want to eat more than a few bites, and I left the restaurant full of regret for the bites I did take. On the plus side, the beer is exceptionally tasty, and my kids both enjoyed their meals. We are leaving tomorrow and so we won't be back, but I wouldn't be back otherwise as well.

The spinach/artichoke dip was a bit heavy and overcooked. You def could not dip your chips in it. I got the poblano chx fried steak. It was good but also a bit overcooked. Some folks got burgers and pizza and they all said it was fine. Go for the service and drinks!! Fun atmosphere. Sorry- it was too crazy trying to get pics.

We had found ourselves on a waitlist at some "fried stuff with cheese" restaurant down the street, which nothing at all looked appetizing to me so I vetoed. Got on Yelp, found 636 well rated nearby and the menu looked wonderful. Got here to a healthy amount of patrons and warm ambiance/atmosphere. Service was great despite me being an annoying tourist. I tried every dish we had plus the hot rolls, which have a buttery pimento dip. Everyone agreed that the food was spectacular. Of all the things to love about 636 (which there are many), my favorite is that when I mentioned our anniversary to the lady, she said "Oh! I'll get the anniversary confetti!" Hilarious and endearing. I love Durango already, and 636 made such a great impression. Thank you!

We were seated on the patio and it took quite a while for our server to greet us. Once she did, she brought water and took our drink order. She returned with our drinks and said she would be back to take our food order. We had plenty to talk about while waiting, but she repeatedly walked past our table to attend to other tables without stopping. Eventually, I had to stop her and let her know we were ready to order. My wife and our friend's wife both ordered a pasta dish with sliced steak and spinach. My friend had a salad with salmon and a bowl of soup, and I ordered the filet with potato lasagna and spinach. As the evening went on, it became breezy and chilly. I asked another server if the patio heater could be turned on, and someone came over right away to help, which we appreciated. When our meals arrived, everything looked excellent and tasted very good. The food was definitely the highlight of the evening. Unfortunately, our server only stopped by our table once during the entire meal to check on us and it was lien she was in a rush to leave to table. We spent a long time waiting to see if she would ask whether we needed anything or if we were finished. It wasn't as though she had to go out of her way to reach us--she walked past our table numerous times while serving her other tables. Because of the lack of attention, I once again had to get her attention to let her know we were finished and ask for a dessert menu. I ordered the Dubai Chocolate dessert to go after she highly recommended it. Unfortunately, it did not live up to the description once I had a chance to eat it. The chocolate flavor was very mild, and the crunchy layer on the bottom was not particularly enjoyable nothing like a Dubai Chocolate. Overall, the food was excellent and deserving of praise. However, for a fine dining restaurant where both the food and drinks come at premium prices, the service fell well short of expectations. Great meals can make for a memorable evening, but attentive service is an important part of the fine dining experience, and unfortunately that was missing during our visit.

Their salsa wasn't too chunky, not too thin and they are not afraid to season and add some heat - but hey, don't worry it wasn't too hot if you've got a dad like mine who isn't a fan of "too much spice." Such a good omen. I couldn't decide which marg to try so ordered a flight. Best decision ever. Even as I write this, I'm still hard pressed to choose a favorite. They were all so good. Add street tacos, quesadillas for my mom, elote cob, and switch fries for my dad and we were all happy campers. The flavors were obscenely good. Staff were amazing and stopped by to make sure we were always taken care of: fast and friendly. Best combo ever. The place is also super cute! Loved the bar and simplicity of the concept. Switchback has a quiet elegance while be so very casual. Perfect in my book.
