I have recently relocated to Denver from a city with many fine restaurants.The Fort was suggested to me by one of my employees(I will not hold it against her). Price does not bother me when I get something good. I went to the restaurant with three friends from Colorado who also raved about the Fort(none of them had been there in that last couple of years),and they were excited to go. I was anticipating somethin special! What we actually received was an old west version of the Rainforest Cafe. The restaurant is a novelty.That being said I will address the service and that quality of the food. Food & Dis-Service: We were seated promptly, but it took more that 20 minutes to get a drink or order an appetizer. We did order 3 different appetizers to share and they were OK - A different waiter brought the appetizers to our table and we advised him that we were ready to order our meal. It took another 15 minutes for ""our"" waiter to return to take our order - we were finished with our appetizer before we ordered our entre. The restaurant was not even half full. We also ordered 4 different entres so that we could try different things. I love Bison when it is properly prepared. I ordered a Buffalo Tenderloin Filet rare (the only way to cook buffalo). It was brought to the table with no pink in the middle, at all! It was served with cold potatoes and what appeared to be canned vegetables. I cut into the steak and asked the waiter to bering me one that is prepared properly. He suggested that I try a couple bites first because ""it was cooked to order""-I complied and advised the waiter that it had the texture of a tennis ball. Before he took it back to the kitchen he took the opportunity to whine a little more and to advise me that there ""chef"" knows how to cook. The food that my friends had was decent but nothing special by their standards. We all wondered about the cold potatoes and canned vegies-None of us will return! out of space\r
Pros: Has potential to be Ok
Cons: Service - Food quality
