Review of Eolus Bar and Dining

Knocked my socks off!!

Knocked my socks off!!

Fiance and I came in mid March, great experience!

All of the food was divine! Every item we got was delicious, and clearly of the highest quality. I got the salmon filet, and oh my god was it perfect. Fresh salmon in Durango?!?! Yes it's possible. Not only was the salmon awesome, the calamari that comes on the plate as a side was the best I've ever had. I'm normally not a big calamari fan because of the chewy/rubbery texture. Eolus' calamari was unlike any I've ever had not chewy, but meaty. Not over-battered either, it didn't just taste like fried batter. Other items; lobster corn dogs, and fiance's crab stuffed chicken were also home runs!

Service was also superb (wish I could remember our server's name, young guy with an awesome beard). Very attentive but not intruding, timely but not rushing.

Overall, 5 stars no question. It is clear that the chef and management here are very dedicated to quality in all aspects of their business.

This is one of the pricier places in Durango, but I felt that we got a bargain for the quality of food and service that were delivered. Especially compared to what we pay for a similar experience in Denver.

Will definitely be back!
