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.

Great menu and food. Service was lacking in speed and accuracy, but was courteous and warm.

We had reservations on a weekday night and the restaurant was not full. We had 10 in our party celebrating two birthdays. The food was excellent when it finally arrived after waiting over two hours. We had four young children with us, one that had requested steak for his birthday. The service was poor and kitchen staff was extremely slow. If we had not placed our order earlier, we would have left the restaurant due to the service and long wait.

The hostess ruined it for us, we didn't even stay. A "five star" restaurant should hire more pleasant front end staff.
