"Oh man, I hate to ding a small town business, but after our visit, I'm not really sure they will even care about a negative review. The only thing this place has going for it, is the view! Our first stop in our week long stay, had us super nervous for our choice of vacation spots. We arrived early evening Sunday and after the recommendation of Chappy's was closed(COVID), this was literally the only restaurant open otherwise. I should've known better, when I asked a local where to go and the answer was, ummm, the bowling alley ain't too bad There were 7 of us, so I always give the wait staff a break on that mark. Although, we were all exhausted from our long drive and fairly complacent this time around. Haha The prices make you feel like you really have a chance at a good meal, but that's a trick. A variety of different menu items were ordered and not a single thing was worth eating. I ordered fish and chips. Grease flavored yuck. Burgers. Frozen blah ness. Chicken wrap. Old tasting. Kids hot dog wasn't even warmed up. Coleslaw was hot. Fries were cold. We waited for our food to be delivered for an hour and that was even after asking the waitress, who seemed stressed over her two other tables, how much longer it would take. The topping came when they forgot my husband's burger and we waited an additional 15 minutes for his food. Most of us left him at the table to eat alone, while we took a walk behind the restaurant. One of us even had to ask for a fresh bun, since ours had mold on it. Our drinks were empty. Our plates were full. The waitress became non existent, never a good idea. The fellow patrons dining were super friendly and we enjoyed the extended visit with them, but I can make friends anywhere, I came to eat and we were left terribly unsatisfied. I wish this business luck in their ventures, but as an outsider, management needs to take a long look at how things are being ran and head back to the drawing board. Best advice to visitors, skip this restaurant, head across the street to the market and grill up your own food. I guarantee you'll beat this place, even if you only grilled spam."

The food was amazing and such good prices, the wait time was not as long as people are making it seem. It's a small business with a small staff you can't expect food in 10 mins. Staff was very nice, highly reccomend. Food: 5 Service: 5 Atmosphere: 5

We had breakfast at 10:15am and by 11:05am, we still hadn't received our food until we asked for it. When it finally arrived, it was cold. My husband's order was messed up and he never received his food. When we inquired about it, we were met with indifference and no apologies. Additionally, one of the waitresses was not wearing a mask.

My family went here for lunch while passing through, it was a wonderful experience. My husband's burger looked completely homemade (minus the bun), my grilled cheese was really good, as was the tomato basil soup. My kids also had the grilled cheese which they also liked. Our server was attentive and service was quick. If we ever come this way again we will definitely stop by. View menu

This restaurant is a fantastic spot to enjoy a meal, bowl, play pool, and even video games. It is clean and the staff is very friendly, although we did have to wait longer than expected for our food. Despite arriving before two other tables, they received their meals before us. We only received our nachos after inquiring about them. The view from the restaurant is captivating, especially for travelers like us. Overall, the cheeseburger or hamburger is a safe bet. My brother really enjoyed his bacon cheeseburger and fries. We unfortunately did not have a chance to try the ice cream, but the variety of flavors looked very tempting.

On Saturday, 2/20/21, we took a day trip to Westcliffe, Colorado to enjoy the scenery and have lunch. Two years ago, we visited with our siblings from out of state and had lunch at Rancher's Roost located in a beautiful bowling/recreation center. The view from the charming dining room was delightful, but unfortunately, the service was very poor as the waitress seemed to be in a bad mood. However, we decided to give it another try for lunch and we were so glad that we did. This time, we had several different waitstaff who were all efficient, extremely friendly, and served us excellent food. We were happy to be back and grateful for the great service. Thank you.

"We are always on the lookout for unique food, and we found just that at this restaurant. The "Gruss Gott" pizza, inspired by German flavors, was a hit for us with German sausage, sour wort, swash, sneak, and other delicious ingredients. We also tried the spicy Hawaiian pizza, which was a perfect balance of sweet and warming flavors. It was refreshing to see a pizza restaurant not overload their toppings. The starter of spinach dip and bread was above average, with a creamy artichoke dip and perfectly roasted bread providing a good mix of textures. However, there were missteps in the service department. It was disappointing to see people who arrived after us get served before us while waiting for our food. Unfortunately, this pattern continued throughout our meal. The waiter was not rude, but they were often not present, which was frustrating. The meal started off well, with the waiter informing us that the wings we ordered would take 30 minutes. We decided to order the artichoke dip to help pass the time. Thirty minutes later, our wings arrived, and the waiter said they would check on our pizza. However, they never came back to update us. After waiting for quite some time, our pizza finally arrived. By that point, another couple who arrived after us had finished eating and left. We had to flag down a waitress for a to-go box. The food was delicious, and we will definitely return for the great flavors. Hopefully, next time the service will be better. Overall, we rated our experience as 3 stars due to the combination of great food and poor service."
