Three of our group in for lunch today. GREAT food items we had all. Really good, just right service from entire friendly staff also. Beauty setting and history here. read more

jazzy was the best server ever, cannot compliment her enough, beautiful hotel as well, great experience read more

If you are in Durago you should go here. You feel like you stepped back in time! Ragtime piano, saloon girls.... fun atmosphere. I loved the fact that there is a vegan/vegetarian menu, so that was helpful for me as I am a vegan. read more

Good food with a nice selection. Gluten free options as well.

I really liked this place. The waitress was very nice and polite. Service was overall pretty good. My entire table ordered the burger that has an entire page in the menu devoted to it. I asked for mine cooked medium but it was rare. I would have given another star if it had been cooked right. I ate it anyway but I would have enjoyed it a lot more if it was cooked better. read more

Old time, western atmosphere that has good drinks. It is always fun to go. I have only had drinks here, but will be back for food soon.

Banana fosters pancakes absolutely rock. Delicious version of banana fosters -- nice and caramelized without being super suite. Staff nice and friendly and attractive as well! read more

This place has a fun although very crowded atmosphere and the piano is great. The food however was expensive poor. My wife's grilled chicken on salad was terrible. The chicken was so dry and cold she couldn't eat it. I had the chicken pot pie which was tiny and only had a little round pastry floating on the top. It wasn't a pie at all. The wait staff was not attentive at all, too busy being cute. All in all a terrible experience. read more

The only reason I give them a three is the piano player and the server did great! The Fish and Chips were sub par, the breading was soggy and bland! My wife had the French Dip and the same result bland! Need to do much better, don't know if I'll try them again read more

Pretty disappointed... my family and I come every year and love the atmosphere here. This place is amazingly decorated and beautiful. It definitely feels like you've gone back in time to the old western days with the piano player and the "Shoot Out" show. But this time it was different... we waited an hour and a half for 3 hamburgers, 2 club sandwiches and a fried steak. Nobody was satisfied. Very disappointing... The staff on the other hand were very apologetic and helpful about the situation. They compensated for the burgers thankfully. read more

Was not expecting to walk into a place where the staff was dressed in western saloon attire. Seemed to cater to an older crowd, but then again came in at 4:30. Food was ok, but nothing I would write home about. read more

We went for dinner on a Friday night. We sat in the saloon which was crowded but not too noisy. There was a cowboy singer on guitar in front of the piano and he had a great personality and singing voice. The drinks were perfect. We ordered burgers. Both exquisite! The atmosphere and the history in this place is unparalleled. It is a fun place to go and not your average ambiance. Felt like we went back in time. The bartenders and waitresses were dressed for the old west. The involvement from the customers with the songs was a lot of fun. Very worth the while! read more

We had dinner and loved the music. My pot pie was ok (kind of soupy - not enough body). The hamburger was good. LIMITED MENU since someone had plowed through the city gas line. It was fun to see how the restaurants downtown could improvise with outdoor grills! Durango is a fun destination. read more

This place is decorated like an old western saloon and it's awesome! Service is great, everyone's really nice and the drinks were delicious. Saw an awesome acoustic duo there, really enjoyed it. read more

Walked in, it wasn't busy. There were 2 customers at the bar chatting with the bartender. Sat ourselves, no greeting. Grabbed some menus from a rack and looked at the selections. 5 minutes later, my wife and I looked and each other and we put the menus down and left. Then the bartender noticed us and said "have a nice day" as we were walking out the door. The good news is we found a great Irish pub right down the street couple of minutes later. read more

Fun place to eat while in Durango. I will admit it was a bit overwhelming at first as we arrived just in time for the gun fight. So it was a bit chaotic. We didn't know it was a seat yourself and there were no seats so we felt a bit uncomfortable just standing there waiting for someone to leave. Ashley the waitress saw us and worked to try and find us a seat as soon as a table opened. Note: not a good place for a party over 4. We were a party of 5. But we did eventually find a table to accommodate us. We almost walked out and left. I am so glad we didn't. The food, atmosphere, piano, decor was worth it. We enjoyed our time. And fun fact, we found out my husband and I graduated from the same high school in Texas as our waitress Ashley! (Many years before her). We didn't find that out until the end. She was working non stop and so was the other girl. They were non stop busy. Great experience. Glad we stayed! read more

We stopped for lunch at Diamond Belle when passing through Durango. The old-time saloon decor was unique and interesting. I had the chicken salad sandwich and slaw. The chicken salad was different, but good. It was made with grapes and a peach jam on delicious bread. The slaw dressing was very tangy...too strong for my taste. My DH had the club sandwich and slaw. The club was on a croissant, and pretty good. He only had one bite of the slaw, as the dressing was too much for him. And then there was the service. We were greeted when we walked in, told to sit anywhere, and then ignored. The bartender finally brought us water, apologized for the wait, took our drink orders, and then we sat some more. Our server eventually appeared (no apology for ignoring us) and took our order. And then we waited...and waited...as 3 tables who came in after us were served promptly. The manager came by and asked how we were doing, and we told her we didn't have our food yet. She went to check on it, and we waited some more. Our food was finally served by another server, and he commented that we looked hungry. He obviously mistook annoyance for hunger! We had another wait for the check and the manager stopped by again. When we told her what we thought of the service, she responded, "We're working on that." She then asked if there was anything she could do. Seriously? How about discounting our bill, or offering a dessert, or APOLOGIZING?!? My recommendation to others is to walk through to see the place, and then eat elsewhere. read more

We love this place. Every time to visit Durango we eat here. I love there steak burger and their salad that comes with the pecans on it. My husband has had the burgers, pot roast, and chicken pot pie and has enjoyed all of them. I can't remember a time that we have never liked the food or been disappointed. read more

Fun place with great music! A must see in Durango! great music, kid friendly and fun for adults.

We have thoruoghly enjoyed The Diamond Belle's food, atmosphere, and service many times, but today, I'm sorry to say, was not one of those times. My boyfriend, his mother, and I went to the Diamond Belle for brunch. Our server, Kailyn was wonderful! Even through her tears! The bartender, Ben, was awesome! He should be promoted to manager in my opinion. Kailyn and Ben are the only reason we may return to the Diamond Belle. The food was absolutely inedible. The Chicken Drummies were bloody raw! Not one of our ordered eggs were close to cooked correctly. The Country Fried Ribeyes were like shoe leather. A knife couldn't cut it, seriously! As we sent back our $13 appetizer, our 2 $15 shoe leather entrees arrived with eggs unedible. After all the good meals we have enjoyed at this establishment we were shocked. Our server was mortified and in tears after going to the kitchen to voice our complaints and finding the kitchen staff had all left. She then sought out the manager....I wish we had heard his thoughts on the matter, but as he stood less than 3 feet from our table, he never even acknowledged us. He returned a second time, and never looked our direction. This is unacceptable in light of the fact we were servered raw chicken. That fact alone should have warranted a visit from the manager!! He was right there! If I was him I would have been embarrassed too, but I darn sure would have at least done my job and tried to salvage my establishments reputation. I have owned and managed restaurants so I know the work can be challenging, but the lack of attention from management was inexcusable. Will I recommend this establishment to my friends, family, and tourists? No. Not after today. The manager and kitchen staff should be fired on the spot. Our day and Durango's reputation were salvaged by The Irish Embassy Pub and our server, Alex. The food was delicious! The service outstanding! If you are looking for a great time, delicious food go to the Irish Embassy Pub!! read more

We ate here 3-19-19, our first night in Durango, CO. The service was excellent. The food was beyond excellent! We had pot roast, grilled chicken, and a hamburger, with cobbler and creme brûlée for dessert. It's located in a beautiful old hotel built in 1880's; great atmosphere and live music. Look around the entire lobby area after you eat at the beautiful architecture and historical displays. You cannot go wrong here. Prices are mid-range (pot roast was $15.95). read more

Great green chile cheese burgers. Good service. It is always a great place to stop when in Durango.

I just LOVE this place! It's fun. It's centrally located in Durango. It's affordable. It's Yummy! And I love the fun drinks and personalities! Who needs the Old West, we have The Belle! read more

Little corny, but fun & good food. The Belle's are pretty hot and friendly. As a business traveler I end up here most of the time

Sometimes you eat a burger and sometimes you eat a burger masterpiece. This was one of those times. A must have in dining ambiance and culinary experience! Run to this awesome dining experience in the heart of Durango. read more

Tried to get in at 7pm one night. Stood at the door and no one would look at us. No tables and it was clear that they did not want to deal with someone that wasn't staying/paying. Went back the next afternoon. We both ordered burgers. Mine without a bun because I have Celiac and with French fries. It came with a bun and cole slaw. I removed the bun and they brought French fries later. The tomato was so over ripe it's next state of matter would be compost. Not even my wife would eat it and she'll eat anything. The meat was over worked (chewy) poorly cooked and tasteless. They had a very good whiskey flight for $11 with three large shots of Buffalo Trace, Knob Creek, and Bulleit. read more

So, we came with a party of 8 and we understand it's not easy to seat this many however, they shuffled us off to the lobby with promises to seat us quickly. We also told them that we would be fine with two tables of four to make it easier to seat us. As we were waiting we noticed that the tables were being filled without holding any tables to which we could sit. We kept in touch with the hostess patiently waiting. It was not until we got stern with the manager that they held a table for us without filling it. With this service, we will not be back and perhaps this review will help others with a group of 8 avoid this same experience. PS. The waitress was ok, the food came 45 Minutes after ordering, some of the groups food was hot but the potatoes were still hard. My mashed potatoes were lukewarm. The food undercooked and was not worth the wait. My wife did like the piano player! read more

We were weary travelers greeted at the door with pleasant faces. We sat upstairs and were able to overlook the old-timey themed restaurant. The wait staff were dressed in cute, but sassy boudoir. Jessica was very patient and gave great food and drink recommendations. Impressed with the robust cocktail menu. Try the pot roast- a local favorite. Make sure to sneak a peek at the adorably vintage Victorian Strater Hotel lobby. read more

Thank you Cassi for a delightful experience! Stopped in for a drink and was pleasantly surprised by the warm reception. Wonderful soups on a cold January afternoon! We will be back! read more

The only thing worse than the service was the food! In mid-afternoon, it took 35 minutes for the food (a hamburger w/fries) to be served. Unfortunately, the burger and the fries were so heavily salted that I could eat neither of them. I told the wait person of my disappointment & that resulted in them reducing the bill by 20%. read more

The Diamond Belle Saloon was a lot of fun. We had great food and it was a fun atmosphere too. It's a little pricey, but it's fun.

I loved the Diamond Belle Saloon!! I got the Diamond Burger and it was delicious. Although the fries were just okay. Next time I would sub them out for something else like the sweet potato fries or onion rings. Everything was priced pretty reasonable. The historic look was beautiful throughout the whole building. The art all around the dining area was gorgeous. The service was good and the people are all very friendly!! Didn't stay in the hotel, just walked in off the street to eat. Good decision!!! read more

We had a great time. Entertainment was superb as was the food! Don't miss it!

This bar has wonderful wait staff as well as the pianist. Our group had a great time until the very young bartender thought we were having too much fun. Even though we had paid our tab and were headed outside, he felt it necessary to follow us out and say were weren't welcome back. If we knew he wasn't going to be there we would come back as the entertainment was top notch. read more

You'd think that a restaurant with an advertised gunfight would cater to families, but be warned. We arrived an hour before the gunfight and waited over 40 min for our meals, even after I asked for the youngest meals to be brought out as soon as they were ready. Not worth the wait if you have kids. read more

I made the mistake of coming during the Cowboy Poetry weekend as a tourist on 10/1. The Cowboys were pretty cool. The problem is this place was packed! The wait was 45 minutes which really isn't that bad for a Saturday Evening. The tables are literally on top of each other. It was really difficult to move as the persons sitting behind my mom and myself kept elbowing our backs. The place is small! Totally a tourist visit. The servers are very lovely in Dance Hall Girl Costumes. Our server was very quick in bringing our drinks. The food took about 35-40 minutes to arrive. My dad said the Pulled Pork Sandwich (around $10) was one of the best he had. At our table the Hamburgers and Bison Burgers (about $12) were voted the best on the menu. My meal however, was pretty bad. I had the "Buffalo" Wings appetizer and Sweet Potato Fries. The Wings are about $10 and a dry rub that is not Buffalo at all. Not even the slightest bit spicy. The Sweet Potato Fries were not delivered and were cold by the time they were (about $5). My Friend got the French Dip Sandwich ($12). The Baguette Bread was so hard she could not chew it. She also discovered a small hair in the Sandwich that did not match her own. I would say that if you are looking for a total touristy location this place may match your expectations. If you are looking for good food at a reasonable price, it isn't. The Piano Player was great!! He even takes requests. read more

Being a dessert rat, and from the Tombstone, Arizona area, I get enough of the touristy type places. However, in this town, it works! The food isn't consistent at all and ranges from okay to awful, but the atmosphere is awesome. The service is consistently EXCELLENT. Just wish the food was as well. read more

What a BRILLIANT place to visit for fair priced bar and food and FUN!! The staff was so friendly, so helpful and professional. Those young girls who dressed up in costumes while serving were so nice to pose for pictures with our elderly dad (and the elderly gent sitting beside us) The piano man was absolutely gifted as his fingers flew over the keys, he played all the popular songs for everyone to sing to and to make everyone comfortable to do so. I am always suspect of eating at a touristy place, but the food was far better than any other place we visited in Durango/SilvertonOuray. The pulled pork Nachos were amazing, the BLT was huge and filled with thick bacon, the pulled pork sliders had a great taste.the deserts were huge. The 4 of us drank 6 beers, a glass of wine, 3 meals, desert... all for under $100. Unheard of in this day! Remember to tip the piano player, he was quite the entertainer and I think people forget that he lives off tips. read more

Great atmosphere and live music every night..... I am traveling with family that are vegan and had several options for them to select from! They also pour a stiff drink to make it well worth the money and short wait we had to get a table on a Sunday night. read more

Absolutely love the environment and the live music! Food is not bad, but the best thing is the atmosphere, the Belles in their fun costumes, and of course the music. Great spot for locals and tourists alike. read more
