VERY sweet waitresses and the food was really quite good. Kids had Mac and cheese and a corn dog with fries (the fries were perfect). Husband and I had Reuben and guac bacon burger. Both were very good. Only small thing was my burger was well done and not medium. We were way way too hungry to send it back but the entire meal was excellent. Stop by here for sure.

As an avid food lover and self-proclaimed burger aficionado, I recently had the pleasure of dining at the delightful River Rock Cafe in Walden, Colorado. While their menu boasted a variety of enticing options, my taste buds were specifically lured by the renowned Walden Cheeseburger—a culinary masterpiece that left me craving for more! First and foremost, let's talk about the impeccable quality of the ingredients used in crafting this burger. From the moment the plate arrived at my table, I was captivated by the sight of a perfectly grilled beef patty, nestled between a fluffy sesame seed bun. Each bite revealed the unmistakable taste of premium, locally sourced beef—a true testament to River Rock Cafe's commitment to using only the finest ingredients. The Walden Cheeseburger is a harmonious blend of flavors, expertly balanced to create a symphony for the palate. The succulent beef patty, cooked to perfection, was complemented by a generous layer of melted cheddar cheese that oozed with every bite. Topped with fresh lettuce, ripe tomatoes, and crispy onions, the burger achieved an ideal harmony of textures and tastes. The accompanying house-made sauce added a tangy twist, elevating the entire experience to new heights of gastronomic delight. The River Rock Cafe's commitment to excellence extends beyond the burger itself. The attention to detail in presentation was evident, with each component meticulously placed, creating an appetizing visual appeal. The burger was served with a side of golden, perfectly seasoned fries that added a delightful crunch to the overall experience. Not only does the River Rock Cafe deliver on taste and presentation, but the warm and welcoming ambiance adds to the overall dining experience. The friendly and attentive staff were quick to offer recommendations and made sure that every aspect of my visit was nothing short of exceptional. To top it all off, their dedication to customer satisfaction truly shines through. The portion size o

Drool over these perfect made to order(even rare!) burgers as you make your way to Steamboat Springs. If you have the time, go for a steak! p.s. opt for the loaded mashed potatoes

The food is average, but so thankful for a restaurant to be open in this area and the staff works hard to accommodate all the travelers (especially on the weekends). Thank you!

10.6.2022 Here tonight and had the salad with crispy chicken it was awesome so much better thank you for changing it. Only suggestion would be less cucumbers maybe 3-4 and I personality did not eat all the larger carrots, just too much to eat and there are carrots in the salad mix. Great job!!!!!!! Service was Excellent

If they shipped their green chili I'd order it cross country. Especially good on the burger, but also great by itself

This is my first time staying in Walden and it's been pretty great! I tried the Blackened Swai (which I had never even heard of) and it truly is my new favorite fish. The way they prepared it was not only tasty, it was juicy and perfectly cooked. It was served with fresh green beans cooked with bacon,yum!! Our table also enjoyed the chicken fried steak, sweet potato fries, onion rings, mashed potatoes with white gravy, and the grilled chicken salad. It was all delicious and nobody left hungry. They also make a pretty great Bloody Mary. The staff are friendly and attentive. We will return for sure!

I have enjoyed River Rock Cafe for 10 years! Whether I dine in or grab takeout on my way further in the mountains! Just 2 days ago I grabbed a to go order - peered to make sure I had what I needed. Requested a bit more lettuce and voila! Came quickly - with a smile. The menu has my personal fav - sweet potato wedges! Great customer service, dependable food, and variety.
