CS is the best restaurant in Colorado Springs, without a doubt. Their service and food are top notch. Jason is an excellent server and pays attention above and beyond every time we're there. Beef seems to have decreased in quality the past few years, but not so at CS. Their steaks are always done to perfection, tender and delicious. We've never had a poor experience at CS.

About the restaurant

Walter's Bistro offers contemporary fine dining in Colorado Springs. One might not think exquisite seafood could be found so far from the ocean, but this eatery just minutes from downtown pulls it off very well with steamed mussels, salmon fillet and pan seared scallops, just to name a few.

While delicious seafood in the mountains may be a welcome surprise when visiting Walter's Bistro, there is plenty on the menu for the landlubbers. For example, the power lunch crowd will love the bacon wrapped meatloaf, 1/2 pound Wagyu bistro burger and the grilled bistro steak even if the seafood crepes do not tempt them. The dinner menu at Walter's Bistro includes Colorado white trout, Chilean sea bass, wild mushroom ravioli, smoked duck breast and osso bucco.

Wonderful dinner and service from Mario and staff. Started with mushroom soup and beat salad. Both fantastic! We both had Chilean Sea Bass for our entree and will definitely order again.

My second time here as an out-of-towner, had the meat loaf, SLAPPED! I hardly ever eat meat loaf, and this one had perfect balance of flavors. Bartender was very generous and gave recs to other local spots as well.

Excellent place for a great evening. Food is always good and service is professional. Our waitperson Molly was the best. Would not sit at table 33 again due to bright service door that was quite busy.
