Best Wine Bars in Eagle Rock

Great food great experience fantastic service. Thank you for a wonderful Christmas Eve dinner

We went here for an early Christmas Eve dinner. The service was outstanding. The food is the expected quality, good but nothing spectacular. The ambiance was a bit disappointing for the price point. We sat outside for an al fresco experience, and our booths were very stained. The inside probably would have been a better bet as it looked cleaner. We would like a bit more care taken for the presentation but overall it's very good dining experience.

We had a few snags being seated. The restaurant has a large draft area and when we asked to be moved to another two top that was empty we were told no as it was reserved. Except so was our table. The dinners were after us that took the table. We were offered a communal table seat by the manager but the host - he would not budge and honestly had an attitude all night even when we thanked him and said good night. We pushed the seating aside and dug into the menu with our waiter who was super attentive. Explained all the dishes. Made excellent recommendations and spaced everything out perfectly. He made sure we knew dishes were to be shared which we usually like to do anyway but made this made our choices even better. Let me just say start with the dates- you will be drinking the butter they are in! We added chicory with bacon vinaigrette which was a warm tasty bite of goodness. One of my favorites was the seasonal squash with farmers cheese. I can’t wait to eat the left overs! Then the main mushroom crusted pork chop. It’s literally one of the largest chops I have seen. So delicious. Get yourself some cheddar potatoes to round out your meal! We came with enough packages it looked santa had come early! The staff is supper attentive and continually acknowledged our anniversary which was so wonderful. The manager went above and beyond to assist. Everyone there seems to help each other and it creates a welcoming atmosphere that makes us want to dine again. Make sure you get a reservation as we are already looking at booking our next one.

The patio near the fountain is a great place to dine. On Friday’s there is a wonderful Spanish guitarist that turns a very nice experience into a wonderful one. Roberto our waiter is professional and has been there since it originally opened. He suggested a great bottle of wine to go with the melt in your mouth honey basted braised short rib that is served on lentils. Mushroom appetizer, artichoke appetizer and croquettes were all very good. Most unique restaurant in Montrose.

Good location and food consistent with what the quality Nordstrom is known for.
