Recommend making reservations. You are asked to deposit $25 per person to hold your reservation which will be refunded when you... actually show up. I thought it went towards the price of the meal. There is also seating at a bar which I believe is for noreservation seating.This restaurant has been in Durango, just off Main Street, since 1972. My parents used yo eat here. We cameto celebrate my birthday and my mom who passed away last year. We were promptly seated. Super attentive staff, Dow to earth,friendly. The menu isn’t huge, which I like. Specialty is steak and surf. Was hoping for a chicken choice. There was a secretmenu and a pork tenderloin was included in the secret menu. Housemade cornbread. It had a good flavor, served with a baconbutter, but didn’t hold its shape well so we ate it with a fork and generally made a crumbly mess. We ordered a 14 oz ribeye,which we split. They also split it in the kitchen cooking it to 2 different temps. Perfection. I would have preferred adifferent knife that was actually sharp. The lobster tails came with clarified butter and these were sweet and tender. We alsoordered the wedge salad. It had a crispy thin fried onion, tomatoes, fried chunks of pie Kelly, and a sprinkle of Blue Cheesecrumble from a local James Ranch in Durango. The wedge had a slight char. My husband’s had part of the core but we are a gameof finding the core in our salads. There was also a sprinkle of champagne vinegarette along the perimeter of the plate that wasdivine. I would have preferred the Blue Cheese crumble and this dressing instead of the Blue Cheese dressing. The crumble wasnice but the dressing overpowered the salad. We ordered the asparagus and potato to share. The asparagus with a bernaisesauce-asparagus were cooked perfectly. The sauce was ok. I would order it on the side. The potato was delicious, soft andtender, and the perfect balance of sour cream and butter. I think they probably brine the potato. It really was the perfect Read more
This place is top shelf. Amazing staff everyone was working together. The drinks are flawless and the bar is fantastic. The food... is phenomenal with crab cake appetizer and the filet was cooked to perfection. The ambiance of the restaurant completes theexperience with dark wood, low light, the decor and seating. The Ore house is more then a restaurant it's an experience. If youhave high expectations for quality and service and know that costs a premium for that kind of service you will not bedisappointed.

Wow! What an amazing experience. This restaurant looks a bit sleepy on the outside, but inside it has amazing ambiance. We sat... at the bar and the bartenders not only made incredible craft cocktails with local spirits, but entertained us with fabulousconversation. The steak was a little underdone, I ordered medium-rare and it was cold in the center, but I ate it anywaybecause it was delicious, and took half of it home for breakfast. It's a bit pricey, but totally worth it for specialoccasions. The price of the meat includes no side dishes. Sometimes I prefer that so I can get two vegetable dishes instead ofa starch. Spicy, warm cornbread is served in a cast-iron pan with butter. Overall, it was a lovely meal. We will be backagain, for sure. Read more

Amazing service and even better food. Yes, this place is pricy—but it’s a perfect example of “you get what you pay for.”... From the half glass of wine for me and mocktail for my 7 year old upon seating to the food and drink recommendations, theservice was impeccable and made us feel like we were the most important diners in the restaurant. The food was perfectly timed;none of that “here’s your salad” and three minutes later, your meal. Plan to spend both money and time here—this isn’ta $20 get-in-get-out place—but you’ll enjoy every minute of it. Read more
