I'm updating my review because I've been back several times since my first visit, and a few things…read morehave changed. When I first came here, the food was excellent but the service was... not. The place was busy -- maybe a dozen tables plus bar seating, and about 80% full -- but even with a busboy helping, the waiter/operator barely paid me any attention. Maybe it was the beard and the autumn work attire, maybe it was just bad timing, but I felt pretty ignored overall. I was so irritated that I only tipped fifty cents -- and that's saying something, because I always tip well. Fast forward to now: he's much better. It seems like he may have seen my original review (the 4-star one) and wasn't thrilled about it. Still, to his credit, the service has definitely improved, and the food remains phenomenal. On my return visits, I've tried the Western Omelette (pro tip: ask for it with their jalapeño cream cheese for a delicious kick!) and, for the first time ever, chicken and waffles. Both were fantastic -- and honestly, I'll probably never order chicken and waffles anywhere else again. Still, I always find myself coming back for the huevos rancheros. Funny story: I asked the owner/waiter about their huevos rancheros recipe. He told me it's been in the family for 45 years. The ingredients are surprisingly simple -- nothing fancy, not even cumin -- so either he's guarding a well-kept family secret, or his father, the cook, has simply perfected the art of turning ordinary ingredients into something extraordinary. As far as ambience, this place is just an ordinary, mountain diner. I love their floor though, and I would like to replicate it in the next cabin I build.

We had a burger, a brisket salad, some fries, and a milkshake. Burger was alright, hefty size and decent flavor, but nothing that'll blow you away. Brisket salad was pretty yummy and all the veggies were very fresh and good quality! Fries were very crispy, but to the point of being overdone. That milkshake though.... Whoa. So good! Pretty sure they put an actual pie in it and blended it up. Super thick and delicious with nice chunks of fruit and pie crust mixed in! Biggest downside was that our food took 20-25ish minutes to come out, but still a nice find in a rather empty spot of this part of Colorado with a focus on local produce :)

The service does what they can, but they seemed pretty understaffed. Drinks took a minute and the OJ came out warm, we werent able to get a refill on coffee. They dont have as many options on the menu as it seems and the green chili is not much to write home about. Their prices haven't changed and cent but you get what you pay for, the portions are on the smaller side. It was a pretty mediocre experience but I wouldn't see myself going back in the future

The steak was phenomenal- be sure to pair it up with the sauce flight they offer, since they all offer distinct flavors. The ramen was earthy and delicious, maybe just a bit on the saltier side.

We got the pretzel as an appetizer.... The pretzel was greasy and so was the cheese they gave with it. The cheese seemed frozen, then microwaved. It had a really dull/greasy taste and odd texture. The French dip was like rubber. And the au jus sauce was bland. For her the best part was the side salad. She even said her beer had an odd taste to it. My chicken sandwich had no flavor. The red potatoes where severly over cooked on the outside and under cooked on the inside. My drink (the house black cherry cream soda), was really good the first glass! Second glass was flat and very syrupy. The server briefly came by a couple times. He would quickly ask "everything ok?", as he rushed by. He wasn't horrible, but he wasn't great either. Overall we where very unimpressed. Not somewhere we'll be returning to. For the price, I had better expectations.
