My wife and I and another couple saved this dinner for our last night in Pagosa Springs where we finally sprang for an Elk Tenderloin meal. It was expensive but the meal was maybe the very best Elk meal I have ever eaten. It even exceeded my prior best at Falstaffs in Boulder years ago which I have sited as... more

Always surprising when you read recent reviews, having had an opposite experience. My cousin, her fiance and I had a lovely lunch on the deck overlooking the river (?) on Sunday, 9/27.

My wife and I had dinner here July 16, 2007. The restaurant has a lovely patio deck right on the river bank and is very picturesque. They were very accommodating and seated us even though we had no reservation and the outside area was pretty well booked. The service was prompt and attentive. The menu is attractive but prices do... more

JJ's Upstream is right on the San Juan River and has great views. The food and service were very good. Pretty good value at $46 for two entrees plus tip. more
