Bruce ChamberlinThe place is stunning ascetically. It truly looks like a fort! We had reservations and no wait to be seated when we arrived. The service was outstanding, with multiple people attending to our table of 6, without being intrusive. The menu is very extensive and everything everyone got was delicious. The attention to detail was very impressive, every plate that came out was clearly set up with care. There was a native American gentleman walking table to table playing the flute. He explained cultural traditions and how the flute is handed down. He definitely added to the experience. Ok, the place isn't cheap, with drinks and appetizers (no room for dessert), we paid just over $100/person but all of us thought it was well worth it! It's not just a great dinner, it's a unique and memorable experience!
Tracy Fordethis was part of a new cultural program that the fort has started. last night on the patio they had a program called echos of the drum indigenous people dancing and explaining pieces of their culture and way of life with a four course meal. i can't begin to talk the praises of the staff. even those programs seem to be for older adults they graciously helped us with ticketing with my kids who are pretty into indigenous culture. we arrived way too early as well but there was a place below which looked like a wedding space and let my kids run to get the wiggles out. they also graciously allowed us to use the bathroom before the doors opened. the meal was a great opportunity to teach my kids table setting and different service options. there was alot of food served family style mollasses beans, rice, huckleberry cake, pumpkin soup just a wonderful evening altogether.
J CrevierGreat spot for a special occasion. We had dinner on the patio and the views were absolutely stunning. Food and drinks were all great. Especially liked the prickly pear margarita and the Rocky Mountain Oysters. Everyone enjoyed their various steaks. Service was great and spaced out the meal perfectly.
AxelThe Fort looks amazing inside—beautiful interiors that really set the mood. But the food and drinks don’t match the setting. Margaritas were watered down with zero kick; we asked for frozen, but got chopped ice instead of the smooth Texas-style frozen margarita. Meat was tasty, but the portions were unbelievably small for the price. Overall, it feels overpriced: you leave impressed by the atmosphere but disappointed by what’s on the table.
