Tho the absolute standout for me was the Upper A Imperial Red! Staff is great, friendly and even the regulars will have beernerd level convos! Food is also awesome! They serve Pasties (pronounced "pas-tee") here...if you don't know what they are, they are basically caucasian empanadas and can go savory or sweet. I ordered FOR THE BIRDS "Beer roasted chicken, applewood bacon, potato, carrot, scallions, mushrooms and cheddar cheese. Served with sarsaparilla BBQ & ranch", and yes it was as delicious as described! Come hungry + thirsty and leave content!

We were motorcycle riding friends and stopped for pastries and coffee, lingering to get to know each other. Many years later we finally decided we belonged together. To celebrate my birthday, we wanted to return to the place it all began. We found an upgraded version of our first memory together. The atmosphere was beautiful and calm. Our server, Laura, was exceptional. She was warm and personable and made us feel like family. She was also very professional, knowledgeable and took very good care of us while being busy. Our food was amazing. Beautifuly presented and delicious. We highly recommend this gem to mark an important occasion or to be escape the fast pace of your everyday life. It is a bit out of the way and we loved that aspect of it. The drive is lovely and gave us time to reflect how lucky we are to have found each other again. We will definitely be back and are making a list of our favorite people to share it with. Thank you Laura and all of the staff. Diane and Jay.

This review is a bit overdue, as our most recent visit was during a family trip in July. Kennebec…read moreCafé has become a place we regularly visit when we're in the area, and once again, our family had a very enjoyable dinner. Tucked away just outside Durango in Hesperus, Kennebec has a beautiful, elegant atmosphere that feels upscale without being overly formal. It's a great setting for a nicer dinner or special occasion. The service has consistently been friendly and attentive, and the menu offers a great variety of options. The food is well prepared and beautifully presented, and there's clearly an emphasis on creating a more elevated dining experience. My one critique would be the quality-to-price value. While we've enjoyed most of what we've ordered, at this price point, I think some dishes could stand out a little more. On our most recent visit, we tried a filet mignon special, and while it was prepared well, the quality of the steak itself didn't quite meet the expectations we've come to have for Kennebec, particularly for the price. That said, this was a relatively small criticism of an otherwise great experience. Overall, Kennebec Café continues to offer a good combination of atmosphere, service, and food, and it remains a place we enjoy returning to when visiting the area. If you're looking for a more elegant dining experience around Durango or Hesperus, it's definitely worth a visit.

Started with the Pepper de Gallo - a spicy tequila libation - and had the calamari on a recommendation from Roxy.

It was our first night in Durango, and Seasons of Durango did not fail to impress. Marianna, our server, guided us beautifully through the menu and helped us make what turned out to be wonderful choices. Every course was thoughtfully conceived and beautifully executed by a chef whose culinary knowledge and talent were evident throughout the meal. From the appetizers through dessert, each course was spectacular. What made the evening especially memorable was the sense that every dish had intention behind it--carefully balanced flavors, beautiful presentation, and a genuine desire to create something special for the guest. Combined with the warmth of the service, it was an exceptional evening and a wonderful introduction to Durango. We would return without hesitation.

If there was any thing I'd change it would be the fries I love my fries a little more done but that's personal preference. My girlfriend had a cup of the French onion soup and said it was possibly one of the best that she has ordered in a restaurant.

Smoked chicken was the most exceptional - but all dishes were terrific. Music was on point in choice and volume; and decor is classy and simple. Bravo on hitting the mark right out the gate! That's no easy achievement.

It has an energetic, young (we're not!) vibe, music, indoor/outdoor seating, and a range of good food prepared and served quickly. You order & pick up at several specialty food truck-like stations but the waiter from the bar also circulates among tables. Self-bus your table. They have seating near the action as well as quieter ones to have a conversation. Seemed to work for families with small kids too. Fun place!
