I enjoyed the service and the meal I had. The first steak was a little well done for me. They fixed it right away. The steak was juicy and tasty. The creme brûlée was not traditional which was what I was looking forward to but it had a sweet and salty factor that was delicious. Overall yummy read more

Destination Grill - Relaxing on the patio in beautiful weather. - Steakhouses Near Me - Cortez, Colorado

Stopped in after a long day traveling after it was suggested by our hotel. They were right! Excellent food, all protein freshly, and perfectly grilled outside. Friendly, accommodating staff takes pride in making your experience a great one. Highly recommended. read more

Rude. Late July was when we were in the restaurant. We came in as a party of 8 and the hostess told us they were busy and it would be hard to find a place but we could look around. Just inside the door was a dirty, empty 6 top with a 2 top right next to it. The young woman bussing was as snotty as could be about us taking those tables. Attitude deluxe. She took the dirty glasses from it but never wiped off the sloppy water. When we thanked her for menus she snapped, "ya" and rolled her eyes. It took a long time for us to have the waitress take our drink order but once that was done we had great service. First impressions were horrible but it changed and when our sweet waitress took over. The meals were good and we may consider returning when we stay in town (twice a year). Management should think about talking to the tall bussing girl about how she almost lost a big party with her crappy attitude. read more

After spending the night at The Retro Inn across the street, I went to the Destination Grill for a burger and coleslaw. AND a mojito. The mojito was GREAT. The waitress was just great and attentive and very kind. The food was late in coming. The burger was nearly burnt. The cole slaw was terrible. Nothing on the burger. What? Such a simple request. Burger and cole slaw. How can you mess that up. I LOVE Cortez. I LOVE The Retro Inn. When I swing back through Cortez I will not be eating at the Destination Grill. read more

Nothing to write home about. My husband really liked his quail. We loved being able to eat out on the patio. I added chicken to my salad because they had an outside grill only to receive a cold, dried piece of chicken in my salad ( not what I had in mind). Usually I'm half way through a drink and dinner comes, but I was into my 2nd drink and it finally came. Lots of ladies working hard, but just not something I'd write home about. Not that I wouldn't give them another try........ read more

Good food, worth stopping at if in town. Hearty home style cuisine that will clear up your stuffed nose!

We ate here for the first time this evening. The service was good and the food great. The steak was seasoned and cooked perfectly, which is a rare thing. The parking is a challenge, being in the "parking lot" between 2 hotels. Not cheap, but ok prices if you're used to upper end prices. read more

Magarita was strong but tasted bad. The Ribeye was eh. The New York steak was fatty and tough. The best part of the meal was the Chips and Salsa. Eh! read more

Great food but the dessert was even better. The hamburgers are the best in Cortez. The service is excellent. I was blown away by the creme brulee. Best I have ever eaten. read more

Had a great meal with great service. I ended up with the Portobello sandwich, but while sitting at the bar, I watched all the food go by, and everything looked delicious. I just wish it was close to my home. read more

Not impressed. I attempted to call a manager regarding my unpleasant experience, but they were evidently too busy to speak to a customer with a complaint. I would not recommend. read more

Horrible service!! My food corn was cold never got any refill of any kind to drink table beside me had cold ribs!!! And people say this place is good??? Had to track down my waiter to get bill so I could pay . read more

The service was good and she was very friendly. The food was poor, the ribs were over priced (23 for 1/2 rack) and not much meat. I fought the meat off the bone. The sauce was the only good thing. The lollipop lamb was tough. I would not return for a meal. read more

Ordered the Baseball steak with steak fries and salad with blue cheese dressing and crumbles - salad was a house salad and the dressing was blue cheese (didn't see any crumbles unless they were in the dressing); steak fries? since when are steak fries spiral cut?; and now the "Baseball" - expecting an 8 oz, small, thick piece of steak, the two medallions were not what was anticipated. I seriously think that the menu needs to be updated to what and how the dishes are being served. Not really sure if I'd dine here should the opportunity present itself. read more

Old fashioned was on point, as was my steak salad. Didn't expect the level of goodness we enjoyed here. It looks like a national chain installed by the surrounding chain hotels but it is an anomaly in that they seriously delivered a good meal with good service. read more

Stopped here on the way to Mesa Verde National Park. In such a small town, I had low expectations for quality food. This place ended up being AMAZING! My husband got the New York steak and I got the rib eye. Both were cooked perfectly and very tender. The mashed potatoes were supper yummy and the Southwest vinaigrette that came on the side salad was fantastic- wish I could get the recipe for it! I highly recommend stopping here if you are in Cortez. read more

Lovely deck seating and very friendly service. I had a prickly pear vodka martini two nights in a row --yes, I very much enjoyed it on night 1--and between the two nights we enjoyed various burgers, potatoes various ways, and quesadilla appetizer. And there is a friendly well-lit bar area where we watched the Olympic Games. Five percent off of you're staying at a neighboring hotel. read more

This steaks ordered were top sirloin - 8 oz, at $22 each, medium rare. My wife's was well done. The potato was barely a few bites and we had to request butter. The 'seasoned vegetables' was corn. Incredibly high price for overcooked meat, mediocre sides. I thought we were eating at a cafeteria. Yuk! This is not a place to go for steaks. read more

Try somewhere else! The food is so overpriced and comes off a Sysco truck. $15 for a frozen burger in Cortez, really? Service was good I'll admit. read more

Man, I hate to leave this review. Because I've been eating and drinking here for 15 years. Way. Back when it was Koko's bar and grill. It's had its ups and downs. But never felt inclined to leave a review. But tonight I brought some friends and my family. Service was fine, drinks were fine. But the ribeye steak I ordered was raw to begin with. Then sent back, hoping it'd come back better, but still was raw rubber and rotten tasting! Couldn't eat 3 bites without getting sick! The sides were a double order or corn and blue cheese(sickening!). After all these years of trying, I will NEVER return! Like I said it wasn't the service, it wasn't a lack of effort by service staff, But rather, a rotten! Rotten! Food service! Worst I've ever ever had in cortez or otherwise! I'd rather eat roadkill! And it wouldn't have cost me $150. Wow! I'm done, I'm done, I'm done!!!!!!! Sorry, but when your that bad you should go belly up. Done!!! read more

Destination Grill, I will avoid next time I am in Cortez. First off you do not have a drink special and not have enough of the key ingredients to make the drink all night. My wife and I ordered from the Chefs Specialties. The Grilled Salmon and that was good; however, you cannot replace one of the sides with a side salad to me that is not acceptable. I ordered the 10oz ribeye from the Chef's Specialties for $26 that was a total mistake. If this is an example of beef in Colorado I would be embarrassed; I ordered it medium it was well done. A ribeye should never be less than 1" thick and this was at best 1/2" I've had better shoulder steaks. I believe the only reason this place is still in business is because of the location within easy walking distance of 4 hotels. If you do go, stick with something simple the burgers looked good. read more

The customer service is great and the food is delicious. We were skeptical about trying mexican food but it was cooked to perfection and the taste is incredible i had to write a review and rate it 5 stars. Definetely reccommend to anyone in town. read more
