About this business

As a replica of Bent's Fort, it's a cultural crossroads on the historic Santa Fe Trail. This area institution, which has been reviewed in the New York Times, serves up southwestern fare to everyone from lounging locals to heads of state including President Clinton during 1997's economic summit. Scrumptious servings of buffalo and elk tantalize the tongue. More traditional fare like salmon, filet mignon and even a vegetarian plate is also available. Open Monday to Friday at 5:30pm and at 5:00pm on Saturdays and Sundays.

The food was awesome, wait staff really great. My complaint is the hardwoodchairs are really uncomfortable, to the point of painful. It's hard to enjoy your meal when your butt hurts and the chair is causing your legs to lose circulation

Bison bone marrow and bison filet was to die for. The staff was so attentive to our groups needs that it was truly refreshing dining experience!

First time eating here. Got there a bit earlier than our reservation but were seated right away since they just opened for the day. Stevie was our server. She did an excellent job in everything to make our dinner great. She had a younger man helping her, can't remember his name, but he did an excellent job also!

I appreciate that I was able to have ... read more

This is the second time that I have visited The Fort and I can honestly say that it was an amazing time. The atmosphere was great and the staff was very friendly.

The staff was very friendly the service was top-notch and ... read more
