The servers wear costumes, walls are hung with artifacts of the Indian-fighter culture of Olde Time Colorado, and the menu is an intellectual exploration of the West's close-to-the-land culinary past. Read more

All the food was great! Must try the Rocky Mountain Oysters! I had the bison filet, teriyaki quail, and the elk chop. Fantastic food and service!

Service and dinner were excellent. If you want elk, buffalo or quail - this is your stop! Great setting, worth the drive.

The Fort has some great views of the Colorado mountains, also some really great game meat... The quail and buffalo runs were really good and it's located really near to Red Rocks Amphitheater

Good food always and a unique experience. Elk, caribou, rocky mountain oysters, rattlesnake, veal, buffalo... It's all here. I don't care for the bone marrow though

The Fort, located in Southwest Denver, is one of the nation's most recognized establishments (1963) and sells more buffalo steaks than any other independently owned restaurant in the country. Read more

Be adventurous! The bison eggs are amazing and you must try a buffalo steak incorrect style!! Plus try a prickly pear margarita!

The best, most flavorful, before dinner salad. Ginger soaked jicama...chipotle mango dressing, unexpected and delicious!

The elk was 'melt-in-your-mouth' delicious!! Amazing wild game...

Amazing food, fabulous service. Prices reflect both. Wonderful special occasion place. Most won't be able to afford routinely.

The bison filet mignon and the Mac n cheese pudding.

The ambience is pretty cool but for a Sat. night, could've been better. Bowl of Kit Carson's wife ($25) was just a big bowl of seriously tasteless broth and turkey. - no. Buff medallions were a hit.

The food is AMAZING! My husband & I would recommend the Buffalo Ribeye & Buffalo NY Strip!

The buffalo tenderloin filet is to die for. Brent is a fabulous server!

The pictures on the walls are the people of Bent's Fort - 1833-1849. Colorado history all around you.

Try the Whiskey shot they have tobacco, gun powder & red pepper.

Gotta do the Game Plate: Bison, Elk, and Quail. Wonderful taste, not "gamey" at all.
