Everything is good here. Service, Food, ambience, even the pricing is pretty reasonable considering quality of food and beverages. They have a nice wine list, and they make lots of specialty drinks at the bar. They have nice steaks, and I'll have to tell you the ribeye is more than big enough for two adults! We split the ribeye, and my fiancé and I had to take home a to-go Box! Dark chocolate awaits at the end of the meal, flourless chocolate tort to die for! I'm a huge fan. read more

Hostess, (name escapes me) gladly accommodated three adults and three dogs on the back patio. Server, Zoey, was attentive and charming. Bartender, made a refreshing watermelon cocktail. And even provided water for our dogs. Appetizers of scallops, brussel sprouts, wedge salad were all fabulous. Entrees of prime rib, salmon, and blue burger were perfectly cooked and delicious. read more

We made a reservation for a table of 8. We sat upstairs at this gorgeous round table. Service was excellent - very friendly, and attentive. Everyone enjoyed their cocktails and food. My boyfriend got the schnitzel and I had the salmon dish. The salmon was cooked perfectly but it had a strange taste, but you cant expect perfect seafood in a mountain town. The rest of the dish was wonderful. Definately recommend! read more

Only high quality restaurant in Gunnison; great small plates along with evening meal.

While this restaurant may seem very unassuming from the outside, I promise, when you step inside, you won't be disappointed. One of my favorite features is Ramen Wednesdays. More recently, we sat at the bar last week to enjoy both happy hour, and the ramen menu. The bartender was great, and checked in with us regularly. We started with a small plate of the bistro fries - which comes covered in Truffle Oil, Herbs de Provence, and Parmesan Cheese - they're super good, and would say better than a certain CB restaurant's crack fries. The small order was plenty for the three of us to share. For drinks, we started with wine, beer, and I had a mojito. The mojito wasn't my favorite - for some reason, it was really sweet. Second drink was a glass of Sauvignon blanc, which went well with the ramen. On to the ramen - I went with the Boo-Tan-E-Koo Pork broth, traditional wavy noodles, pork belly, poached egg, tempura, green onion, buttered sweet corn, chile thread, fresh ginger, sesame seeds. It was delicious, flavorful, and I couldn't get through the whole bowl (I took about half of it home). That was my first time taking ramen home, and would note it heated up nicely for lunch the next day. We will absolutely be back to try more of the menu! read more

Stopped here for dinner on our way to Lake City. We usually go to High Alpine brewing but wanted to try a new place! I'm glad we stopped. I got the Hackbraten which was way more elaborate and pretty than I thought it would be. I was expecting a hunk of meatloaf (which I was really craving), but it was a much more refined dish. The goat cheese in the mashed potatoes was a unique touch I hadn't had before. The sauce was really tasty but the meat itself was quite dry. My husband had the French Onion Sandwich and it was tasty, but quite small. The french fries were delicious! Would stop here again for a nicer meal. Seems like they also have Wednesday night ramen which is super fun?! read more

Blackstock Bistro - Hackbracken - New American Near Me - Gunnison, Colorado

Good service and ambiance considering his w busy they were. Our tacos and burger tasted good but were served cold.

Food was mediocre (ribs were dry and served with lukewarm soggy french fries - I expect a lot better at this price point), but the bigger issue was the restaurant was dirty. I'm hoping the grains in the wide crevices of this table were old rice and food particles and not droppings, but especially if you have small kids do not let them sit you at this big round table upstairs (see pictures). The crevices are plenty wide enough for little fingers to play with the crud. The salads got good reviews from my dinner companions, but the ribs and meatloaf were both subpar. read more

Great food, great service! Sat at the bar and Drew the bartender was friendly and helpful

Seems like a hip joint. Service was friendly. We came for the Asian menu, but they only do that on Wed. The regular menu was no disappointment. I had a burger and my wife had a shiro pasta dish. We started with tuna poke. Nothing was 'traditional' but it was all great. read more

Overall (A+) This place is awesome. I will be dining here every-time I visit Gunnison/CB. If you have not dined here- get here immediately. Honestly I will have lunch and dinner here. It's one of those places that you want to try everything on the menu. I think I will have to move out here since they rotate the menu. If they open for lunch and breakfast I would be there 3 times a day. Food (A+) Look I have been to Gunnison and CB a number of times and was not expecting this. Overall I feel like the Yelp ratings in CO are skewed a bit high. But not this place - it exceed my expectations and deserves a super high Yelp ranking (5) in my book. So I got two appetizers since I wasn't super hungry and I wanted to try different items. Started off with the Lox Crostini - Seared Scallops Crispy Beet Chip, Sweet Corn Cream, Bacon Shallot Red Wine Vinegar Chives Awesome. Great flavor combination. Second was the Seared Scallops Crispy Beet Chip, Sweet Corn Cream, Bacon Shallot and Almonds, Red Wine Vinegar Chives This is actually a genius combination of flavors. Service (A+) The staff is extremely well trained. They are friendly with all customers, provide great recommendations and the foot comes out fairly fast but is not rushed. This is a highly efficient and effective team. Well done. The waiter politely asked me for drinks (which I don't drink) and knew I was healthy so didn't push dessert on me - since I would not have gotten one. Value (A+) It was around $30 out the door for me with 2 appetizers. Worth every penny. This is a kind of place that you don't mind spending money at.its the reason why we make money. To spend at places like this. If this place was in Chicago there would be a wait for months to get reservations. Look if you know me, dine here and don't think it is awesome - I will pay for your meal. It's that awesome. Go you will not disappointed and expectations will be exceeded. read more

My boyfriend and I walked in without a reservation on, unbeknownst to us, prom night for the local high school, so we felt exceedingly lucky to nab the last table not booked by well-dressed teenagers and their heavily cologned dates. We started with the French onion soup to share. This was fine. The broth was flavorful enough but lacked the super punch of umami, the toasty crostini, and bubbly browned cheese layer I was envisioning when I ordered. More egregious, though, is that the soup came out borderline cold. It was perfectly edible and we still finished it, but I wouldn't get it again. For mains, I had the grilled salmon and he had the hackbraten. I quite liked mine. The salmon was perhaps a touch overcooked for my personal preference, but still very tasty. The couscous was super unctuous and tasted strongly of bacon, but a bite with some of the asparagus, roasted tomato, or lemon mascarpone brightened things up. I would've liked even a few more dollops of lemon mascarpone throughout so there were fewer bites that were one note without the balance. I love me some bacon but I don't necessarily want that to be the primary flavor in my entrée. My boyfriend's hackbraten was solid, but not exceptional. And when I say solid, I do mean solid as in dense, stodgy, and not particularly dynamic in flavor despite the three different meats in the meatloaf mix. The plating was lovely, the gravy was tasty, and I think the mashed potatoes were good, but I'm not a fan of goat cheese so the one bite I had was enough. All in all, this was a nice date night out in Gunnison and I think there are some good things going on here. I'd rate this 3.5 if I could, but I'll have to settle for 3. Good foundation. Brings a somewhat elevated offering to a small mountain town. Has room for improvement. read more

One of my friends recommended Blackstock Bistro to me while we were strolling through Gunnison, and I am glad he did. A quaint little restaurant on the main strip in the town, Blackstock has a surprisingly sophisticated menu that meets the criteria of a quality gastropub. They have the classics, but also are willing to serve a $200 tomahawk steak. Quite the contrast! I went with something I had never heard before: a French Onion Soup sandwich. This thing was the bomb. Straight out of the soup onto the meat of the bun. This one stood out to me the most on the menu and it did not disappoint. I'm not sure how other restaurants in the area are, but I would believe Blackstock has to be one of the best. Definitely a great meal and one I would suggest anyone to have should they come across it. read more

We had a good server who was attentive. The food was average for the amount we paid. For the best restaurant in Gunnison, CO I would expect better. read more

First time here. Did not know this restaurant existed. Looking forward to going back. Quality of food surpasses anything in gunnison!

Ordered the tuna poke for an appetizer and it was very good. The tuna was fresh (no idea how that happened this far inland) and the combination of guacamole and tuna was something I wouldn't have thought of but was very good. The drinks were not watered down and I recommend the Pendleton Old fashioned. Prices are very responsible and the ambiance is great. Very friendly staff. For dinner we ordered the Hackbraten and the Seared Beef and goat cheese crostini with French onion soup. The entrees had generous portions and d were flavorful. The hackbraten was a bit over done but the French onion soup and crostini were delicious. The service was very attentive. All in all a very pleasant dining experience. You should try this place if you get the chance. read more

Although we don't eat here regularly, but it is our first choice in Gunnison for dinner. It is by far one of our favorite restaurants, with unique offerings, and great service. Go early, as it is a small restaurant and can fill up fast. The sLmonhas been a favorite of mine for years. it's our go to place for special occasions like birthdays, and our kids meet us there. the upstairs works well for larger groups. read more

I made reservations for 2 on Friday night. The place was packed when we got there but we were still seated almost right away. Our waiter was very good and he checked on us frequently to make sure we were good. I had the tomato bisque which was good. We also share the poke bowl but the poke didn't taste fresh. My main meal was the salmon and that was tasty. The couscous was a little sticky and thick but still added good complementary flavor to the salmon. Finally we had the chocolate tort cake for dessert which was tasty but the cherries with the syrup tasted like cough syrup. Prices weren't bad. read more

Great food and atmosphere. Good for small groups or a few larger groups. Nice menue with small plates or large plates. The appetizers are actually very large. I loved the sticky Dumplings and could of have 2. I also I had the chicken and rice appetizer was more than filling. The drinks are really expensive though and was surprised I was charged for a pour. read more

It's been years since I've been here, but this place does not disappoint! It is my favorite place for the best dirty martini with ice crystals floating and homemade blue cheese stuffed olives.

There should be more than 5 stars for this place! It was shockingly good. My wife is from Paris and we've eaten in some of the best restaurants in France. This rivals anything we have had in Europe. The filet mignon is to die for. The chef is one of the only people we've had in the US that can cook a filet the prober way. Ask for it very rare on the inside and very seared on the outside, it's perfection! The Lamb was spectacular as well. Even the veggies were an eruption of flavor! This is must visit place if you're in the area. read more

What a gem we discovered in Gunnison Co located in a very small storefront on Tomichi Ave. This establishment has culinary excellent food, it well exceeded our expectations. The service was personable, professional, quick and friendly. Our meals included the schnitzel which came with an arugula salad (including eatable flowers and German potatoe salad--- simply so tasty. We also had the St Louis Ribs (falling off the bone for sure) , a tangy homemade rub, coleslaw and truffle fries (small upgrade from their standard fries). I testify this meal was excellent. I didn't mention the star, parmigiana roasted broccoli sprouts.. I'll drive back just for this dish... soooo good. Please look this restaurant up when near Gunnison, it's really superior and so reasonable for the experience. read more

Terrible experience. Sat at the bar and bartender told us kitchen was taking a while AFTER ordering our food. Food came out almost 2 hours later. The filet was ordered medium rare and came out medium well. The croquetas came out soggy. The owner said he would refund us half off our meal after complaining (which we RARELY do) - but the charge never came through on our credit card. After calling back a week later - the havent returned our call. Not trying to sound like a Karen here - but don't tell me you're going to make it right then not do what you're gonna say. Word is bond. Essentially, this place just seems like an over-priced, poorly-ran "fanciest place in town". Ended up being a knockoff. Save your money and go somewhere else. read more

Esta todo muy bueno muy lindo el restaurante la comida es muy rica un espacio agradable

This place is great. Food is wonderful, as is service. The pace we were served was a bit too fast, we were barely done with our appetizer when the mains came out. I'll definitely be back though! read more

Great food, great service. Went two nights in a row and loved the variety of menu options!

Their normal service is five stars, but I wish their Wednesday Ramen Nights were better publicized, so I could've known to book my Dad's birthday reservation for another night. The ramen is fine, and I was pleased they were able to make it gluten-free, but it's not what we were looking forward to eating when we booked a reservation weeks in advance. Their usual fare is SUPERB! read more

This was a great restaurant to stop in for dinner. We weren't starving so we opted for small plates. We had the shishito peppers, tuna poke and split a burger. The shishito's were good with a touch of sweetness from ginger in the glaze. The poke was really good, fresh tuna way up in the mountains....who knew! The burger (can't recall the name) had a candied Tabasco bacon which was a little to sweet for my wife but I thought it was ok. Cooked perfectly at medium with tons of juice. Overall, a good meal in a neat little bar. AND they had a decent wine list with some great bourbon selections. read more

Was passing through Gunnison several years ago and stopped in to eat at Blackstock. I had the French Onion sandwich and it was great. When I was back in town, I knew where I wanted to eat and what I wanted to have. The sandwhich was delicious again, comes with a great dipping sauce. The bistro fries are really good too. I was on my own and ate at the bar but the atmosphere in the rest of the place seemed relaxed and friendly. Several groups were gathered and seemed to be enjoying themselves. The environment isn't too loud and you could have a good conversation over dinner. Highly recommended read more

This is our go to when we are visiting Gunnison! Food is delicious, atmosphere is great, and the staff is very friendly. Brooke was exceptional the last time we visited a few days ago! Matter fact we left after doing some appetizers and then decided to go back. The only thing I've had here that was disappointing was the shrimp pasta. Everything else- on point! We've had the salmon, lamb, curry, fried fish, scallops (my favorite), and their Mac and cheese is to die for!! If I were you call and make a reservation! read more

The food, service, and atmosphere were all great. We sat upstairs for a family get together with 10 people and really enjoyed it.

Seems to be busy early on and staff just keeps up. Food was good. Bar tenders are over-whelmed and non- responsive. Everyone is stressed out and has a shitty attitude. Something needs to change. read more

Had a great evening here. The wine selections great. I had the filet which was very tender and tasty.

We made a reservation for a large party of 20 for 730PM 7/27/23 Was told by gentleman making reservations do not be late!! i said nor we will not or if we choose something else o will call and cancel we should have.... We were seated 35 minutes late as was given a multitude of reasons of why they could not sit in seat us on time. received our food an hour and half later. Food was good Not worth the wait! Definitely would not recommend for large party or if you are very hungry service is extremely slow. atmosphere was ok...music ok.... tables very wobbly water on table split several times just from table numb barel. Many drinks not refilled because we did not want to wait.... Got attitude when we wanted our chick split up. read more

What an incredible meal I just had. The staff were both friendly and professional the entire time-- with fantastic recommendations. The drinks were generous and delicious. The Blackstock Burger allowed the flavor of the high-quality beef to shine through even though it was paired with such strong elements (like cracked pepper mayo and tabasco candied bacon). My son just started college in town, so we'll be coming to Gunnison a lot for the next few years, and I think we'll be regulars! read more
