Durango Restaurant

“Iron Horse Pizza’s” pizza is 1st class with high quality sauce, cheese and ingredience…
I just LOVE that….

This is a very nice restaurant that isn't a red sauce Italian joint. Every dish we have had here screams quality. After only two visits in the past year we have wished we could make it a regular establishment to visit, but with quality you also get $$$ price.

I am a big fan of Iron Horse Pizza and this one has my heart. They have an awesome menu, and what ever they do offer is always of great quality. I routinely order the Curry Chips as an app, the Steak Sandwich with peppercorn sauce as a main meal, and drink the imperial pints of Smithwicks like it was going out of style.

On our most recent visit we had chicken skewers with an Italian slaw and chipotle aoli. YUM! For an entree I had their steak special which was a superbly aged cut smothered in a butter and mushroom reduction. My wife had Clams in a white sauce on fettucini which the white sauce was not a ton of melted cheese, but a well executed white wine reduction.

My wife gets to take advantage of the slow poured, cellar temp, traditional Guinness every time we go. She loves the Fish and Chips (which the portions are HUGE).
When they have it we love to eat a bowl of their Guinness Cheese Soup. It is the best thing on a cold winter day. Everything that is potato related here is well worth the visit

Their wine selection was limited but of quality. Amazing food! You cannot beat it. Even the bread and butter they serve gratis is awesome. We will go here again in the spring to taste their seasonal menu.

The food is great. With many different dishes to choose from. The best is their pizza's. What ever you order, you get fast, hot and it taste great. The staff is friendly. The restaurant is always clean. You will enjoy!!!!!

His is a hole in the wall restaurant that is near the train station in downtown Durango. It is cozy and can possibly seat 12 people, but don't let the size fool you. The food is super fresh and truly authentic.

The owner/chef used to cook for monks, married a local, and blessed this town with some amazingly simple, yet delicious gifts of cuisine. I cannot tell you how great this place is. Just about everything on the menu I have either tried, or friends/family have eaten and always the kudos overflow.

Check this place out for lunch if you stop by our bumping town of Durango. It is worth the stop.

Things to do in Durango CO

The first thing you want to do is, to visit this terrific local neighborhood restaurant and tasty Italian Food in Durango CO.

Good solid Family Italian restaurant. Great Salad Bar, fresh made soups and great tasty pizza. Also has a full mid priced menu that offers Gluten Free Pizza, Lighter Fare meals and is family friendly. Beer and wine are available plus they have a patio for outside dining. Their buffet is fresh, hot and fast for those in a hurry.

The night we checked in we had a couple of drinks at the bar. I am pleased that they carried Fat Tire and Stone IPA on tap, so I had to have one of each. The bartender was pleasant and prompt.

It was a busy night and we were seated at the bar at first for a couple of drinks. The bar tender this evening seemed surly and put off. He was slow to acknowledge people at the bar. He after being shy of a couple oz of the wine my wife wanted a glass of, he presented two other options and once picked, poured a glass with bits of cork in it. Nice.

Our server was absolutely awesome! She was sweet and helpful, steering us through the menu and nightly specials. For starters we shared a yam/coconut curry soup that was the best! It was like savory candy and so good. My wife ordered the salmon and I had the drunken duck. Both dishes were very good and well thought out. The portion sizes were on the moderate to large size, which was good considering the entrees were hovering around a plate.

We were very pleasantly surprised; the service was great and our waitress very friendly and helpful, and that wasn't because we were big spenders, we only ordered a soft drink each and a small pizza to share. We ordered the buffalo chicken pizza and the chicken and sauce was nice and hot but not so spicy that it was overwhelming, the pizza base was crisp and tasty (not at all greasy) and there was just the right amount of cheese. The price too was actually ok; it was more than we would usually pay for a pizza but not a lot, and we knew it would be a bit more as this is a tourist place.

In a state where politeness and service is legendary, Iron House Pizza stands out above the rest. Excellent value for money (check out the pepperoni pizza) and the friendliest staff you could hope to meet. It was worth the trip from Scotland just to meet these fine people. Steve and Sunny will make sure your visit is all you would expect - and more!

Delicious? Yes. I would recommend this restaurant to anyone in Durango, CO area. If you can swing a meal, try this place out! Imaginative dishes that taste great on the tongue. The food is great. With many different dishes to choose from. The best is their pizza's. What ever you order, you get fast, hot and it taste great. The staff is friendly. The restaurant is always clean. You will enjoy!!!!!
