Spicy margarita
Shari S.

We had dinner here on our one evening in Durango. It was fantastic! We ate at the bar and enjoyed chatting with the friendly bartender. My husband loved his Mezcal Margarita! The food, expecially the guacamole, was excellent.

Roasted vegetable salad w/goat cheese.
James M.

This is a nice restaurant with a nice variety on the menu. The elote starter was fantastic. Ask for tortilla chips with it. The roasted vegetable salad wasn't all roasted veggies, but very good if not over dressed. Wedge was really great with delicious homemade blue cheese dressing. Food (and they were just salads) came out pretty slow and the restaurant wasn't even busy. But, we had no where to go. Check it out for a nice and somewhat casual meal.

Beef medallions & potato wedges, delicious!
Stephanie A.

We stumbled on this restaurant to celebrate a CO vacation. We loved the seating, the fire grills can be seen from the lobby & my oh my the food. Delicious memories and we cannot thank the staff enough.

Wild Mushroom Pizza, added prosciutto
Whitney W.

Delicious take out order: Chimayo Salad with steak, and a wild mushroom pizza. Pizza was smaller than expected, but delicious! Host was super helpful in getting my order for me.

We had truly the best gluten free pizza crust I've ever had at Chimayo! A great, eclectic restaurant right on Main Street in Durango. It was busy when we arrived around 7ish and it was busy but we were able to grab bar seating. One thing to note - they do close early here, even on the weekends. They're only open until 8pm. Gluten free Wild Mushroom Pizza: WOW. We were blown away. My friend is gluten intolerant and both of us have never had such a delicious gluten free crust before that tastes just like pizza dough. It was doughy and light and delicious. The pizza toppings were equally amazing - topped with cheese and a variety of mushrooms and truffle. We didn't want to stop eating it! Roasted Warm Veggie Salad: Amazing, the balsamic dressing on this was so fresh and good. The veggies were deliciously roasted and it was topped with a yummy whipped goat cheese. They had an extensive drink menu here as well with a bunch of great cocktails. They also had a really cute holiday themed cocktail menu as well. I got their Winter Spritz and it had rosemary and cranberry and was light and refreshing. Will definitely be coming back here the next time I'm in town!

Ambience
Tim M.

We stumbled upon this place when the place we had picked out was actually busy. The atmosphere is fantastic. Brick walls. Offset lighting. Fantastic ambience. Serving staff was extremely professional. We had a serve by the name of Nick. But as we looked around the restaurant and noticed their entire staff and Chef crew in the back that you can see from your table are very professional. Very unique for a tourist town. We chose the Chimayo bread for an appetizer. It was fantastic. Way better than Texas roadhouse dinner rolls with a very unique butter/honey Spread. My wife shows the cauliflower steak. Extremely well prepared. Cauliflower was a 1 inch stick slice of cauliflower with roasted cherry tomatoes, zucchini, wedge, tomatoes, shaved Parmesan, and a very nice light seasoned sauce on top. Fantastic. I chose the flatbread steak sandwich because of the reviews and the recommendation by the server. It was also fantastic. Made with their pizza dough. Stuffed with roasted bell pepper, onions, mushrooms, steak and a very nice sauce. Like a calzone except that the bread wasn't closed over. It was fantastic. .

Salmon cake
Andy M.

Nice place, the food was ok but pricey. The service was pleasant but the waiter was covering too many tables. I had the salmon cake, decent but not filling , not worth $27

Warm Butternut Squash Salad
Denise W.

The service is exceptional. The food is fresh and delicious and the have delicious cocktails. The restaurant is exceptionally clean with a beautiful ambiance.

Not my favorite type of table as I am shorter and having to keep my feet on the footrest or dangle them is uncomfortable. The A.C. was also running on a rainy cold day. I kept my jacket on throughout the meal, which is a little uncomfortable. On to the food, I ordered a shrimp scampi, which came with spinach, asparagus, and red pepper. Lots of veggies and shrimp, with smaller portion of pasta. It was delicious. My S.O. ordered the beef bordelaise, with gravy, mashed potatoes, and asparagus. Unfortunately, the beef bordelaise had several cold bites in it. Thankfully the mashed potatoes were hot so he could mix the bites. He did not ask them to address it. He definitely does not like to send things back, and cause issues with the kitchen. I would have sent it back, especially with the chilly day and AC running. Our waitress was friendly; she checked on us periodically and took empty plates quickly (huge plus!) and brought the check quickly. Happy to eat lunch here, but if I go there again, I will ask to sit in the front at a regular table.

I just flew in to Durango with my family, and today just so happens to be my 19th wedding…read moreanniversary. 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!

My wife and I made reservations at 636 Main for ourselves and two friends who came into town to…read moremeet up with us while we were traveling through Colorado. 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.

My partner, his family, and I went here for dinner tonight. It's the day before Labor Day so it was…read moresuper busy, but the family said it was worth the wait. The line was super long when we arrived and we waited about 20 minutes to order. His family said it was the longest they've ever seen it. I ordered the Mushroom Belford Burger, medium well, with no onions. My partner got the same but with the onions and cooked medium. The rest of our group each got the Signature Burger, medium rare. We also split two orders of large fries. My partner got a root beer and I got a cherry cream soda. Everything was delicious! It was absolutely worth the wait. My burger was more towards well done than medium well, which is something I see a lot and I think I'm just going to start ordering medium any time I get a burger now. It was juicy and delicious, and the rosemary garlic aioli was delicious! The fry sauce was also some of the best I've had, and we left the cup scraped clean. The fries tasted fresh and were well-cooked. My partner said the root beer was great and my cherry cream soda was delicious. I had gotten a small and I was contemplating going back to order another in a large, it was that good! All of the employees we interacted with were super friendly. It was a bit of a struggle to find a table outside just because of the holiday weekend, but we found a perfect table that fit all of us under a tree. We took a little walk by the pasture and read the info signs after dinner which was a great way to end the evening. This place is fantastic and well worth the wait! It is pretty expensive (we paid about $146 after a 20% tip) so it may be better for special occasions, but it is all so fresh and pure that it's very much worth the price you pay. My partner and I don't live in Durango but his family does, so I'm hopeful we will be back the next time we visit.

Hands down, one of the best burgers you wil ever have!!!…read more James Ranch Grill is the counter service contingency attached to the James Ranch Market. All their food is locally farm grown, their beef is of course sourced directly from their ranch, so it couldn't be fresher. They also offer delicious salads, a solid BLT, and various options for the beef adverse. Local beer, wine, and cider is also on offer...and delicious!! Oh...and you get to eat everything picnic style on the ranch grounds. So you just can't beat the view!!! Make sure you stop into the market for the freshest meats, veggies, and locally-made foods and gifts. Whether you're visiting or an old-school local, you owe it to yourself to stop into James Ranch and treat yourself right!! Thank me after...

I've eaten at the Durango Diner since my college days, forty years ago. Being in the area I was…read morebeyond happy to see it was still open so our final breakfast for this brief trip had to be here. The restaurant is tiny, a narrow shotgun type unit in a building along main street. We managed to get one of their five tables and were promptly served drinks and time to look over the menu before ordering the Country Benedict. My coffee was kept filled as we waited for our order. As soon as the plate hit the table, I knew that even though the owner had changed, the spirit of the place remained. The plate of food was massive; more than the two of us could eat. The plate included two halves of an excellent biscuit, half of a large sausage patty on each, an over easy egg; all smothered in country sausage gravy. The other half of the plate had a mound of beautiful browned hash browns. Enough for four people or at least two very hungry people. It was glorious and nostalgic. The flavor was everything I wanted it to be. If you are in or near Durango, please consider giving this true old diner a try. Thanks to Greg, the new owner, for continuing Gary's recipes and hospitality.

We stopped in for breakfast when we didn't realize there was an art festival going on in the city of Durango, so we expected it to feel crowded, busy and rushed. They found a table for us right away (part of that was lucky timing on our part), but provided great service.... Answering all of our questions and asking where we are from and overall friendly service. We all ordered the breakfast burritos and it was better than what we expected. I highly recommend the green chili sauce they smother the burrito in.... It's super tasty! And in the end, the price was lower than we expected.... So, great environment, great food. 5 stars! I would be happy to come back to this one!
