Fine Dining in Durango
Established in 1972, Ore House Restaurant is one of the oldest restaurants in Durango, and it is one of the best! Here you will find delicious fine dining menu options combined with the stripped-down Colorado mountain town atmosphere. The interior of the restaurant is decorated with artifacts and murals that speak to the rich history of this area of the Southwest and is much different than the usual stuffy steakhouse ambiance. Ore House Restaurant is also chef owned and operated, which means they are committed to offering the highest quality ingredients and ensuring only the best meals make it to the table.
Steak, Seafood, and Spirits
Ore House Restaurant is renowned for its delicious combination of quality steaks, seafood, and spirits. They offer a menu of craft cocktails and are famous for their extensive whiskey selection and wine cellar. These spirits pair perfectly with a menu full of some of the best steakhouse fare you’ll find in Colorado! Enjoy starter dishes such as crab cakes, French onion soup, and a classic wedge salad. Their featured steaks include the decadent New York strip American wagyu, locally sourced from Snake River Farms and served with a trio of sauces to enrich the flavor. Another menu favorite is the sirloin USDA prime, aged for 120 days. Their surf is just as impressive as their turf, serving up Alaskan king crab and lobster tails. Also, no steakhouse menu would be complete without a surf and turf option featuring lobster tails and filet mignon. Round out your meal with one of their a-la-carte side dishes which range from homey classics like mac and cheese to elevated dishes such as the sauteed oyster mushrooms. If you have any room left after your hearty meal, considering ending with one of their dessert options, such as creme brulee or spiced toffee cake.
