One of the few places you can get great food and great drinks…read more The cup of bacon and the fried cheese were both great starters. The fried cheese is very different from your other standard cheeses or mozzarella sticks. The cheese is much more firm with a light fry. The cup of bacon is fatty, salty, with a tiny bit of sweetness. The ricotta gnocchi bolognese has some amazing fresh gnocchi. The bolognese sauce was okay so it's a fine dish but I probably wouldn't get it again. The duck poutine has delicious fresh fries that end up crisp topped with tons of cheese and gravy. Not a lot of duck, but a great poutine overall. Every item is always a treat and unique and makes me want to try the whole menu.

The place is laid out with plenty of tables and booths plus a sizable bar in the center of the…read morerestaurant with seating on both sides. I went solo and decided to sit at the bar where they had three bartenders that would rotate with all the customers making it very efficient and great coverage. The food was very inventive; not your typical fare even for a bistro. I started with the lobster tater tots that were served with ranch. He had the perfect amount of seafood flavor and a super crispy outer; I would recommend. Next, I had the ginger pork and crispy rice dish. This had a large helping of pork that did well with the Asian flavors and that crispy rice for texture; I would recommend. My final was the miso butterscotch tart. You can't go wrong with a dessert that has butterscotch, Biscoff, marshmallow and miso. The only criticism I could make was that the tart was pretty loose, but that did not take away from the flavor. To drink this place has lots of beer taps, a good selection of wine and plenty of interesting cocktails. I chose to have a couple beers and they were both very tasty. I would like to come back with additional people so that we could try more of the menu items. Unfortunately, it is an hour away from where I live, but the next time I find myself down in the springs, I will return.

The dates with bacon and whipped goat cheese was an absolutely winning combination. I also had the chicken sandwich which was also done well with pesto and nice and juicy chicken breast. This is not typical Colorado Springs fare, more like something you would find on either coast. If you are local, don't be afraid to try, you will be surprised. Service was professional and done well.

We just drove up and stopped at the Barnwood for dinner The Barnwood is right off the lobby. They have a limited menu. The view of the mountains are great. I had the chili lime chicken bowl with a side salad. It was very tasty and plenty of chicken. The salad was large for a side salad. My hubby had the pick 3 Big Wolf combo with double ribs and sausage. The ribs were tender juicy and tasted great. They fell off the bone. The bbq sauce was very good. The sausage was very good as well and a little spicy. We were surprised that the portions were larger than expected. Definitely recommend but be aware it's a little pricy. Also they charged us for a refills of iced tea. We were charged for 4 teas for the 2 of us. And there is sales tax as well as INBID tax?????

I heard so many good things about this place that a friend and I decided to dine there. Now mind…read moreyou, neither of us drink alcohol so we can't rate what I've come find out is a bar, not really a restaurant. What I can say is that our lovely waitress, Lindsey, had to run all over the hotel up and down elevators to find a couple of bottles of sparkling water. A bar, that doesn't have sparkling water? The menu is pretty extensive for a bar so we ordered several things. I knew we shouldn't expect 4 star dining when I first ordered the mochi's to start, because my world traveled friend had never had one. It was a chemical confection of freezer burn and rubber and sadly would never win any awards. Meanwhile, Lindsey announced that she was still on the hunt for sparkling water! Next our food came out in strange order. My friend had the rubbery chicken wings and I had the Burrata cheese and sourdough having also ordered a crab salad. Meanwhile Lindsey had returned to the table to announce "they" were all still looking throughout the Hotel Polaris for Perrier, San Pellegrino or any kind of sparkling water. The salad came out as pig slop in a cup. Hosed down crab with so much mayo that it could honestly have easily been misidentified as a colon mass. It went back to die in a kitchen that I suspect is stocked with nothing more than frozen food from Kroger. Instead Lindsey offered just crabmeat in a cup. Wanting to just eat I eagerly agreed, after all she was so lovely and was trying so hard to find that damn water. lol When the bowl was returned to my table it was frozen fake crab, no labeling on the menu that it would be fake crabmeat. Once again the search began for anything healthy to eat. Then the lobster meat came out in the same size small queso like cup with a side of cold drawn butter congealing. By now I was done, BUT THE WATER WAS FOUND !!! TWO SMALL BOTTLES OF PERRIER SAVED THE NIGHT. A liquid diet it would be for me and all for the price of a small dog. :) I'd like to thank God for giving me such a humorous, patient spirit,l I'd like to thank my date for his eye rolls with smiles as they fumbled through our meal, I'd like to thank Lindsey for her tenacity, determination and devotion to her customers and I'd appreciate a thank you from Lindsey for my helping her to reach 10,000 steps in just under 2 hours. :) Bypass this place unless you're desperate for a view of the mountains and alcohol.

I wish I could give this place five stars but the end of the night has me frustrated which is why…read moreit's four. I'll start with the positive. The food is fantastic. Steak bites, truffle fries, brownie skillet... I want to come back just to try more food alone. This was insane and the pricing was good, the value was good, and I even ordered truffle fries to go because I loved it so much! What is super fun is that they now have wine tastings on Tuesdays and it is a great deal. $12 for four wines. Someone tells you about each wine and it's a great way to sample a bunch of wines, both local and not. I was super excited about that! I will again, come back to do that! Lots of positives there. And our server was very sweet. She was checking in and making sure we were doing well. I wish I knew her name but sadly I don't. But she was so kind and had a great personality. And everything came out fast! The vibes are also good. I love the outdoor seating/patio options for a hot summer night. And it was very lush. It's funny because I had never heard of this place before but it is in a fantastic area near Night Ramen and Provision Bakery (two amazing spots). Breakfast at Provision, apps and drinks at My Cellar Wine Bar, and maybe a dinner at Night Ramen. Haha! Just kidding, but again, great spot. Here's where I have issues. I worked in the restaurant industry for six years. I understand staying over close and even coming in close to close is a no no (at least for me). But we arrived at 7:30 pm and stayed until 9:45 pm. One of my best friends is getting married so she wanted to show us her dress and share her excitement. At 9 pm (note they close at 10 pm), they turned on the lights, began sweeping, closed the kitchen, and even at one point blasted music. We asked the waitress when they closed the wine bar. 10 pm. But what frustrated me the most is that the manager (I assume) came over and was acting extremely condescending. "I know you girls are having such a good time!!" And was trying to usher us out. Girl. You don't close until 10 pm. It's 9:45. If you didn't want us to stay, then maybe change the hours. I don't care if we are the only ones there. It was extremely rude and the way she said it felt, as I said, condescending. Like we were young and dumb or something. As a diner, I expect great service. Which we got for the most part. But to kick us out before it closes is unprofessional and frustrating. Of course we left, but god forbid a girl get excited about her wedding and wants to share all about it. This left a sour taste in my mouth and again, if you wanted to close early, maybe don't tell patrons the actual time you close: 10 pm. We bought a lot and a bottle of wine. Let us finish our glasses and I promise we will leave before close. I would still come back, but maybe I'll go to Vine and Wheel or another wine bar first.

Ambiance: Beautiful view of a mega church. This place has so much potential and the Springs needs upscale sushi, but this really missed the mark for us.

On arrival she received a birthday card signed by staff which was such a cute gesture. As for food , most was great, not all. French onion soup was fantastic! I appreciated the authenticity with correct cheese . Very flavorful and rich. Steak was well seasoned and cooked well, a bit over done but due to delicate cut , it melted in my mouth. It was delicious. The horseradish sauce would be great if there wasn't ( what I think that was) blue cheese. I happen to dislike the blue cheese. Luckily it wasn't too overpowering. AuGratin potatoes were a miss for me . Wrong texture. They were more like mushy, baked mashed potatoes rather than potatoes sliced thinly . Flavor was ok but I disliked the texture . As for Cesar salad, unfortunately, the lettuce was not crisp and fresh . It was wilted and soggy. Desert ( complementary for birthday) was pretty tasty. Even though food wasn't exactly perfect for us, the whole experience was very pleasant and satisfying. We would return for more .

This time though the first four beers I ordered they were out of. Oh well. But then there is the food. Nothing wrong with the taste, typical bar food, but the price keeps inching up to the point where the meal lacks value. I mean two puny tacos for 15 bucks? A one small patty burger for 19? 8 wing pieces for just under 20? C'mon! So although service is always good and the atmosphere lively, I think next time I'll eat elsewhere then come have a few!
