Reviews Summary
Golf Cabin Bar & Grill offers a mixed bag of experiences, with many praising the stunning mountain views and upscale, yet relaxed, dining atmosphere. The burgers and certain entrees like elk and pheasant receive high marks for flavor, while the attentive service and impressive drink selection are often highlighted. However, some guests find the prices to be steep for the portion sizes and quality, and a few have noted issues with the temperature inside the restaurant and occasional service lapses.
"Wanted a burger & this place did NOT disappoint!!! Bonus: we called in a to-go order & in the middle of ordering, the call dropped & the server still put in the order! We rolled up expecting to order again & our food was ready. & that burger SLAPPED. Highly recommend."

"Stopped in on our way out of Salida. Very overpriced for what you get. One in our party had to walk to the bar to get a drink and refills. Nachos tasted like movie theater nachos. I’ve never had naan like this, it was so thick, very few veggies and the hummus tasted like Sabra. The chicken and rice bowl tasted like a Marie Calender frozen meal and the dressing on the steak sandwich was sweet. Amazing views, lots of deer walking around. I’d pass unless you’re just stopping for the view and a drink."

"The chef and staff deserve credit for the food now matching the atmosphere in the old cabin clubhouse. Daily specials are excellent and they nail the basics also, like my swiss truffle burger and fries last night. Both the beer and booze offerings lean local. Sit in front of the fire in winter or watch the golfers, sunset and mountains out the big windows facing the course. This place is well worth a visit or a revisit."
