So fun and friendly they moonlight as professional best friends. The pineapple salsa hit like a tropical vacation I didn't know I needed. Nachos were great -- no notes. The pulled pork was so flavorful it made me question my plain-chicken era. The brisket? Fork-optional tender. And the mac and cheese was so creamy it deserves its own zip code. But the real villain? The Chubby Cow Taco. I don't know what sorcery lives inside that thing, but it now haunts my dreams in the best possible way. 5/5 stars. Will return. Possibly tonight.​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​

We met friends here at their recommendation. The interior dining area is fairly small but we were…read moreable to get a table for four without problems at 5:30 PM. My wife and I both ordered the brisket taco. Hers without the pineapple mango salsa and with Mac and cheese as a side. I ordered a side of sweet potato fries with mine. My wife absolutely loved it. I was expecting moister brisket rather than the burnt ends type meat. That being said, the flavors were very good. The tacos included a large portion of the burnt ends with a very tasty rather sweet bbq sauce, chunks of potatoes with a melty white cheese and a good flour tortilla. I was saddened by the amount of cilantro in the salsa; blame my DNA as it tastes like soap to me. I found the sweet potato fries tasty and an adequate amount as a small side. My wife's side of Mac and cheese was the better side and was easily enough for both of us to have shared as a side. It reheated well for an addition to a salad the next day in our hotel room. Our friends had a very good bacon cheeseburger and a grilled cheese, both with large portions of French fries. They also had leftovers to take home. The service was prompt and attentive without feeling like we were being hovered over, nor were we pressured to eat and leave. This made for a very pleasant conversation catching up with old friends. This would be one of our top dining choices in Cortez.

We walked in and were immediately greeted by one of the bartenders and told to sit wherever we liked. We found a nice booth off to the side of the bar area. Our server Patrick stopped by the booth and pointed us to the food menu in the chalkboard. We also had another server but I didn't catch her name. They were both very friendly and attentive. I ordered the special for the day. A green chili Rueben & fries. Wow, this sandwich was so delicious! What a creative combination of flavors. Even the slaw in the Rueben included the green chilis. The fries were hot and crispy. My husband ordered the spicy BBQ pulled pork tacos. He said the tacos were amazing and the flavors were off the charts. They were topped with a slaw and pickles. The side of "tortilla chips" had a dusting of a very flavorful spice. Not sure what it was but very tasty. Looking over the menu, this restaurant has some very creative dishes. We can't wait to stop by again! My husband ordered

Curiously, both our entrees were lacking a key element. My farm salad was missing the apple slices. The feta cheese thus overpowered the dish. My husband's bratwurst meal was served with a mayonnaise based aioli instead of the mustard with beer cheese ( a common accompaniment to bratwurst) listed on the menu. When he asked the served about it we were told it was the correct condiment.
