Best Date Night Restaurants in Idaho Springs

I am so happy we gave Blue River Bistro a try. I had heard the cocktails were winners, but, wow, the food we had was the best of the trip!! The bison short ribs took first, followed closely by the salmon. My son’s Beef Wellington was done to perfection! The harvest salad was also delicious. Looking forward to a return trip when we return to Breck in the future!

We came away from a Christmas dinner here truly wowed. The friendly server named Jamoy took us through the menu with care, providing his recommendations. We started the evening with cocktails, well-balanced and refined. The biscuit was as hands down one of the best things I’ve ever tasted! The pimento cheese was savoury and delicious. The tuna tataki was fresh and delicate. And the wood grilled pork chop was nothing short of a piece de resistance! This menu was inventive beyond expectation. The melange of flavours put this place near the top of the heap in all of Colorado, in my humble opinion. I can’t wait to come back. Gratitude to the chef, servers, and other staff who made this such a delightful experience.

Good vibe and menu, but service is a little odd. I’ll go again and appreciate the effort.

The food was very good. The waiter was well enough.

Being open, as the name says, 24-7, makes for convenience in Black Hawk. But a good, varied menu means that you aren’t sacrificing much to dine whenever. Fair price-points compared to other area choices. Good service, we’ll-plated portions. All in all, a solid choice for the area.
