After a terrible experience in Silverton, this place was a breath of fresh air. Not very busy, but great drinks and food. Very good service from bartender. read more

The food here was a great surprise! We've been staying in Ouray for a couple of days and have been sorely disappointed with the food choices there. Hate to spend a lot of money on poor food. Saw the reviews for the lazy dog we thought we'd give it a try since it's not too far away Ouray. I had the grilled chicken sandwich with a hotiyaki sauce, my husband had the French dip and they were both excellent. The homemade bun with my chicken sandwich was outstanding! I upgraded to the onion haystack. The sauce they put on those is to die for! It was rather busy when we got in there, lots of locals so you know you made a fairly good choice, the waitress was superb! Kept everybody happy, fed and well hydrated LOL. Since the food in Ouray is so so, we will definitely back as we have a few more days. read more

This place was great! Service was quick, friendly and attentive. We got the original hamburger and the burger with goat cheese, pepper jelly and arugula, with fries. The fries were perfectly seasoned and my fav-shoestring. Bathrooms and resturant area were nice and clean. We would definitely stop by if we are in the area again! read more

We had the most delightful late lunch there with the trio of traveling Goldens! The staff was fantastic and kept the dog's water filled with ice water. The Burnt Ends were amazing and the Mac 'n Cheese burger was delicious. I wish I had room to try the Peach Cobbler! Will have to have that on the next trip. A super place for a relaxed meal with your four legged friends, everyone in the group highly recommends!!!! read more

Lazy Dog Saloon - The Sweet Potato Tots are lip-smacking good! - Comfort Food Near Me - Ridgway, Colorado

This local favorite restaurant did not disappoint! Fantastic service, delicious homemade food, clean and family atmosphere. We had the lamb gyro, string onion straws and the BLT sandwich with string onion straws...Yummy! Topped it off with homemade peach cobbler and ice cream!!! Forgot to take pictures too busy shoveling delicious food in my mouth! Highly recommend read more

We stumbled on this place on a road trip. There was only one waitress working the whole lunch rush because a fatal accident closed the road for the other employees to get to work. She hustled her tail off and was super friendly and awesome! My kids had the chicken tenders and Mac and cheese and I had the brussel salad. My salad was soooo yummy! I was craving something healthier and it really hit the spot! I highly recommend stopping here!! read more

F*** this place is good. Been coming for years, from the Parker-Castle Rock area. Hard to beat. Excellent prices, fresh food, just delicious. Service always great, and I love the small town ambience. Highly recommend on your way to Telluride or Ouray. Only hiccup, would be the cocktail menu, as they are quite sugary, but we pivot. read more

Been wanting to come here since the place opened, so made a quick stop for a bite after a morning of paddleboarding. Decor was pretty much the same (formerly the Full Tilt Saloon). Still had the cool rustic table tops and the pool table in the back. Always loved the outdoor patios which offer a nice alternative and a great place for live band nights! (which I understand they have regularly). Menu had a nice variety of tasty items, including gluten free options. I ordered the Brown Derby Salad sans the ham and croutons. Hubby got the Fish and Chips. Our server was very friendly and even recommended that I get the half salad...it was pretty big so I appreciated the tip. :) Overall I'd say the Lazy Dog Saloon is solid and a welcome addition to the restaurant circuit in Ridgway. It's not on the main drag, so don't miss it! It's tucked in the corner at 153 U.S. Highway 550 next to Rocky Mountain Cannabis. Check it out peeps! read more

The food was absolutely phenomenal. I ordered the creole pasta and it was just delicious. We also had a burger that was great and don't get me started on the fries. The fries were absolutely delicious some of the best I've ever had. Their cheese curds and Mac balls were great. In addition there service was the best the waitress was always checking in on us and even got us some of their special dry seasoning. The inside was also very nice and had a great atmosphere . read more

100% would recommend! We've been coming to the area for years but never tried this place. Saw a few reviews online that said it was kid friendly so we gave it a shot and we're so impressed. The restaurant is split into two, a bar and dining room so if you're really not comfortable with your kids bring around alcohol you can take them into the dining room. The service was wonderful. Cheese curds are our go to there now - chef kiss good! We've been back already once and will continue to visit for years to come read more

Wow Just great Family owned great food at reasonable prices. Just loved it and will definitely return read more

Visiting friends in ridgway. Look on line at this place.. gourmet hot dogs, tacos.. ok we will try. They didn't have any of it.. limited menu. Burger good.. fries burnt, no drink refills, had to order a $17 plain burger ketchup only, no bun for my kid since they don't have any on the kids menu.. that has 2 things on it.. just disappointing read more

The owner is awesome and makes you feel right at home, fun atmosphere, she recommended the chicken fried sandwich with jelly - oh my it was amazing- so much taste- you have to try it! My husband had the burger he said it was really good ! You have to check this place out! 10 stars! read more

Love the place, staff and food! Went numerous times this summer and brought friends with me to try it out. For food we loved the onion rings as an appetizer and the kids loved the Mac N Cheese as well as the adults. Also all the entrees I tried were great from the burger, chicken sandwich to the blackened Mahi. You cant go wrong. The wait staff is all really friendly and there were lots of creative drinks to choose from in addition to the beer/regular bar selections. We also saw a couple different bands here that played on the side patio. Great atmosphere and the music was awesome. Lastly, our kids loved playing on the pool table in the back which was free to use and a hit for where they wanted go. Looking forward to going back soon. read more

EXCELLENT food! Good service. Fun local hangout place...some interesting conversations . Eat here! Tell the cook you read review!

This place is great. Prices seem fair, you order, then you get this huge amount of delicious food. What a great place. Staff is very friendly, your gonna love it!!! Ps: you can recommend it to your friends If it needs anything, perhaps a bit more ambiance!!! read more

Looked up reviews. Ok looked pretty good. Wrong. Husband's burger was just OK. One very thin piece of lettuce and very thin tomato....the kicker was the nasty old fries. Literally like they were left over and reheated. Tons of small burnt pieces. Kinda felt like rubber. It was early and we were close to the only ones (two regulars at the bar ) in the restaurant so it wasn't because they were busy. As the old saying goes " You get one chance to make a good first impression". FAIL $50 fail with tip. Won't be going back. read more

Awesome to meet the owners of this fun spot. I drive over from Montrose I like the place this much. Taking nothing away from Montrose perfect pub and food in Ridgway. See y'all soon. read more

I'm a local, but this is the sort of place I look for when I'm traveling. The food and the service are great, the atmosphere is open and relaxing, and it's easy to find. Too many eateries in mountain towns are overpriced and unreliable; quality depends on the season or the mood of the staff. The Lazy Dog is owned and run by full-time residents and it shows in the pride they put into their restaurant. I'm a big fan! read more

Great atmosphere. 5 top table neat was playing poker. There was a pool table behind the bar area. Think they are short staffed. We were treated well but you could tell they were thin. I totally get it post Covid. We got cup of chili, burger/fries and BLT/ haystack onion strings. The chili and burger were awesome! BLT was buttery but good. read more

Meh. Very slow service. Our meals were only ok. They should concentrate on the basics before they start trying to cook anything remotely exotic read more

Food is always fresh and cooked perfect, we have never had a bad meal and the fresh desserts are worth the extra calories . Service is fantastic !! read more

The food was amazing, staff was awesome and friendly!!! Highly recommend if your in the area!

Good food and service! Very good haystack onion rings and the blackened fish also. Nice clean restaurant

All around lousy experience. Wasn't crowded, food was slow, service was slow, food was burned and overpriced. Bbq sauce was $1.50 for a side that was inedible. Just skip this place. read more

Worst $70 we've spent on a lunch for three adults in Colorado so far and my parents & I are not high maintenance or boujee people. Mom's burger ordered medium was red in the center and they added on a $1.50 charge for ranch that wasn't ordered. My burger had the extra charge as well and was ok but the fries were all stale. Dad's "special" shrimp gyro was something that we are hoping doesn't make him sick later...oh...and his fries were also all stale. Terrible food and definitely not worth the $70 tab! read more

This place is awesome! They're open every day and serve some scrumptious food and great drinks. Sierra, Juice, Mississippi Bob, Vicki and the entire crew at Lazy Dog work their tails off serving their customers with a smile every day of the week! Stop by for a drink, dinner or both and be sure to try their famous desserts! Peach Cobbler is our favorite so far, but we can't wait to try more!! We've been here for just 10 days and have "happened upon" this place about 5 or 6 times! Go there and you'll be part of the family too! read more

This is our opinion so you do you. But we would never go back!!! We went on July 3rd, 2023 about 1pm and just a few customers. We asked for waters so we could look at the bar menu. Never got the waters. The server made our drinks. Out of five drinks only one was good. It was a can of beer so hard to mess that up. The Cordon Moo burger was actually the best part of the meal. All the French Fries were rubbery so we didn't eat them. We wouldn't suggest this place to even an enemy. read more

Not open when they said they would do to staff shortages, although two people where in sitting at the bar drinking, Just wanted a beer didn't think that would be difficult. Last day in ridgeway found other options. read more

We came into the saloon for the Avs Stanley Cup Finals game and had a great time. Beers and drinks were prompt and tasty. We loved several appetizers and our favorite were the onion ring straws. Staff was friendly and good people, worth a stop when you're passing through. read more

Wow! What a great little restaurant! Sierra and her fellow Co-owners have created a wonderful place in Ridgeway. Love the New Orleans influence on the menu and the friendly staff. We will definitely be coming back! read more

Great atmosphere! Had a grooms party before the wedding. Owners are awesome and the food and beer were great!

We were a couple of pilots flying into Telluride and ended up in a small community called Ridgway. We are looking for a very comfortable restaurant just to hang out after a long day. This place was absolutely perfect. We met one of the co-owners, Sierra and she was absolutely delightful. She was very attentive, prompt and had a beautiful personality. The menu had a wide variety of food, I ordered the steak medium rare and it came exactly as I wanted. The other Pilot commented that it was one of the best chicken sandwiches you ever read. We travel all over the world and this is one of the more memorable restaurants with this wonderful ambience, attentive waitstaff and tasteful food. read more

Good food. Service was good and quick even sitting outside. The blackened mahi with the sweet potatoes was a perfect combination.

This place is a testament to what great entrepreneurs can do when their backs are up against a wall. After a very long day of grueling and beautiful hiking, we stumbled across Lazy Dog after True Grit turned us away because they closed the kitchen 15 mins before closing time. The food was amazing and Sierra (the owner) was such a delight. She treated us like we were royalty and we didn't even know she was the owner until our meal was done. She was so impressive as a server and an inspiration as an entrepreneur. The food was LEGIT! 100% made from scratch. Couldn't recommend this place more highly. read more

This place exceeded all of our expectations. We stumbled into the Lazy Dog after a day of leaf peeping in early October. Every other restaurant in town seemed swamped but we found the Lazy Dog pleasantly uncrowded. Service was friendly and attentive. The food had no business being so good! We had the fried pickles appetizer which were just perfect. The pepper jelly arugula burger was magical as were the impossibly crunch/fluffy sweet potato tots that came with it. Literally everything we ordered was tastier than we expected and impeccably prepared. We will definitely be back. This place is a hidden gem in Ridgway you simply have to try to believe. read more

You have to stop by and eat here. The catfish special was delicious. We also got the Moo burger. Hit the spot. Best sweet potato tots I've ever had. Service was impeccable. Great atmosphere. read more

The lazy dog saloon is a great, new locally owned restaurant. I had the half pound burger and my wife ordered the fish and chips. Both were reasonably priced, I think my burger was $12, and they each came with a generous portion of crispy fries. On draft, they have several local beers plus a very delicious cider. We went there on a Saturday night and there was live music on the outside patio. Inside, they have a pool table. read more

Great place to eat and relax after hiking all day. Food and the service were great. Fried chicken sandwich was very good as was the burger we had. read more
