In Estes Park on vacation, I searched for Mexican food loved by the locals. La Cocina de Mama had…read moregreat reviews. What restaurant with the name Mama wouldn't be good? The hostess was very friendly. They sat us right away even though it was busy. They also let us move tables, as I was getting iced out by the air conditioner. We order chips and salsa (which are not complimentary), but only $3 and the salsa is wonderful. For dinner, we ordered the carne asada plate and the two taco plate. The carne asada was tender and full of flavor. It was cooked with grilled veggies, and served with rice and beans and hand made tortillas. The tacos were large and tasty as was the rice and beans. If we were staying longer in the area we would have returned to try the other restaurant specialties.

I had Kearny Asada tacos and my husband had the chicken burrito. The young girl working was really cute and friendly and I couldn't believe that they had speakers on the street light poles playing country music through the town! How awesome is that?

We had a very good experience during our first visit to this restaurant, so on our last day in…read moreEstes Park it was an easy decision to return. The first time was very good but the second was even better. Our server, Ramis, was excellent. He was very friendly and told us about his summer internship in the US as a foreign student. His story was very interesting and we wish him the best of luck. Besides excellent service, the food was outstanding. The wife had the beef stroganoff and loved it. There was a lot of tender meat and the dish was very flavorful. I had the reuben and it was excellent. One of the best I have had. The fries were crispy and coated with a delicious seasoning. I also had a cup of the soup of the day, beef with vegetables and barley. It was very good and I was inspired to make my own after we returned. I again had the IPA and the wife had the peach lager and both were excellent. We visit Estes every two years or so and this place will definitely be on list the next time we are in Estes.

It was prime rib night and i was excited to order. The prime rib was blah and unseasoned. The baked potato was good. My husband ordered the pork tenderloin sandwich and it was not good. Very thin and dry, no sauce on the bun, he had to ask for mayo. Maybe our orders were a one-off because i see other reviews raving about the food here. Drinks, on the other hand were fantastic.

The bartender called Kayla was wonderful and made me a terrific cocktail. Sitting at the bar haveing a wedge salad and a filet mignon skewer was relaxing and exactly what was needed to end the day. This place exudes history and charm. Highly recommend.

The view is outstanding, but the overall dining experience left a lot to be desired. Our server was…read morefriendly, yet our food took nearly an hour to arrive even though the restaurant was mostly empty. My order came out incorrectly, and getting a simple water refill took about 45 minutes. The food itself was fine, but not nearly good enough to justify the wait. I'd suggest coming for a drink and the scenery, but I'd look elsewhere for dinner.

Grubsteak Restaurant was a great choice for dinner in Estes Park! The atmosphere is very casual and…read morewelcoming, and the prices were reasonable, especially for the quality of the food. We started with the wild boar stuffed mushrooms, which were delicious and a fun way to try something different. For dinner, I had the elk medallions with a Caesar salad, and everything was cooked perfectly. If you're looking to try Colorado game meat, this is a great place to do it. The staff was incredibly friendly and took the time to answer our questions and help us decide what to order, which we really appreciated. Another huge plus is that they have a pet-friendly patio, so we were able to enjoy dinner with our dog. Overall, this is a great spot if you're looking for good food, friendly service, reasonable prices, and a relaxed atmosphere. We'd definitely come back!

Just prepare yourself, especially if your kids are starving. Being hangry is real. They have limited parking and seats inside as well as a patio. They have a self serve drink station and after you order, you are given a number and a staff member will deliver the goods. This is definitely a spot worth going to when you're in the area.

There is indoor and covered patio seating. The drive through was very busy and I observed many locals which led be to believe we picked the right place. We shared a double cheeseburger with fried zucchini sticks. You place your order at the counter and they deliver the food to your table. There is a small parking lot and this location is right off the highway, very easy to find. The gyros looked very good and I do wish we would have tried it.
