roaring fork

i went to have a nice christmas eve meal at roaringforkwith my folks and it didn't disappoint in anyway. the ambiance is outstanding, it feels like a perfect place for winter with decor that seems straight out of some faraway sierra nevada ski lodge. the service was terrific, absolutely no complaints and our waiter dan made great recommendations on entrées, sides, and wine.

i had the bacon-wrapped pork tenderloin which was cook to perfection with cheese grits and sweet corn accompaniments. my dining partners both had 22 oz. ribeye steaks that exceeded those i've tried at much swankier steakhouses. we also shared the green chile mac and cheese, and the sauteed spinach, which were also very good.

i can't wait to return to try more of the menu, what a great evening.

visited the roaringforklast night and it was very nice. ordered the queso first - it was delicious! my hubs ordered the big ass burger - very good! i ordered the salmon, it did not amaze me but it was cooked well. i recommend ordering something else. lots of great reviews about the green chile mac, i was underwhelmed.

amazing steak!. i went to roaringforkon a first date. great choice the guy had made! it smelled so wonderful inside. the waiter was very knowledgeable and described all the specials with great detail. the filet mignon was one of the best i've ever had! the green chili mac and cheese was superb. i also had asparagus. the sides are big enough to split. the wine list was great. overall the total experience was wonderful and i would definitely go back. very glad i got to finally try this place.

consistently good food and service. "fork" features a combination of consistently good food, attentive service, comfortable upscale facilities and reasonable prices all things considered. never had a bad meal or poor service in many visits. however last night and the two previous visits to theforki ordered a bottle of wine from the dinner menu (not off the reserve wine list) and each time the server brought a more recent vintage than the one offered for sale without mentioning that the offered wine vintage had been sold out and replaced with a newer, younger vintage (a 2010 vintage was brought to the table rather than the 2009 ordered; i pointed out the change in vintage, but accepted the 2010). i will definitely go back the the roaringforkand recommend the arizona/country-style food. just make sure to examine the wine that's delivered to your table.

one word sums it up superb. intended to dress up and go with our children and grandchildren our youngest grandchildren, twins age five had a different lidea they were not feeling well need i say more. left them with nanny and went in not clothes for going to roaring fork. my daughter in law is well known, but you would not have recognized her this night. staff at roaringforkwas terrific and treated us extremely well we ordered overlooking liquor and appetizers and the waitress was excellent. the experience was marvelous and i recommend the scallops they are remarkable

i promised my daughter in law a donation to the brest cancer foundation if she was not revealed and it was the best donation i ever made and a simply wonderful evening

great flavors of the old west. one of the things i love about restaurant week is that it helps shorten my wish list of restaurants that i want to try here in the valley. roaringforkwas on the top of my list and came highly recommended. they are known for their wood fired meats (lamb, chicken, beef, pork - you name it). the food and atmosphere give you a feel of the old west. the food is great quality and deliciously prepared. the green chili pork stew was pretty freakin amazing. i had the flat iron as my main entree and savored every bite of it. i didn't try the huckleberry margarita, but i noticed a lot of people drinking them. i'll have to give it a shot next time around. service was great as were the happy hour drink prices!

comfort food at its best. named after a river near aspen colorado the roaringforkserves great comfort food. the fried chicken and green chill mac and cheese being a highlight. the fried chicken is a big, boneless chicken breast on top of mashed potatoes. the green chili mac and cheese had a little spice to it, but the texture of the mac and cheese was the best i think i have ever had. the cheese was not runny, nor was it really sticky, it was just right. one thing i would pass on next time was the bread pudding. the bread pudding was runnier then i am used to for a bread pudding, the flavor was good, just too soupy for me.

we are from texas, in town for tcu's bowl game, and decided to try out roaringforkbased on reviews. the food was excellent. the pork tenderloin was amazing. my husband had a bone-in-ribeye that was literally one of the best he has ever had-and we are from texas! the green chile pork and green chile mac and cheese are must tries as well. the service was good, not great, but the food more than made up for it. we left wishing there was a roaringforkback in fort worth. awesome!

still great, but miss the robert mcgrath touches. attended a group dinner at the roaringforklast week, the food and service still remain very good along with the well known menu items. i just miss the robert mcgrath touches, that made this restaurant so unique. although not a corporate chain, the new owners eddie v's has expanded it to texas, and will watch if the quality goes down with the expansion.
