The Slogar - Crested Butte, Colorado

The fried chicken ($49), while moist, was completely bland—Popeyes would be a better (and cheaper) choice. Sides included unseasoned mashed potatoes, canned corn, and gravy that was just passable.

The so-called ribeye ($61)? Actually a strip steak, missing the flavorful cap, served cold, and tough enough that I couldn’t even chew through parts of it. Cottage cheese was bland, the tomato “chutney” was just stewed canned tomatoes, and the Caesar salad and coleslaw were worse than store-bought - definitely came from a bag. Plastic serving tongs were used for the salad….

The real kicker was dessert: a *Blue Bunny* ice cream bar, straight out of the wrapper.

Service was awkward but not bad—
our reservation was initially misplaced, and the courses came out in a disjointed manner.

If you’re looking for quality food, this isn’t the place. Factor in cocktails alongside overpriced dishes, and you’re left with an experience that doesn’t come close to justifying the price tag.

This place is great. The reservation is a must. The dinner is all you can eat sides and appetizers, but you must buy a protein from the available options. We bought the sampler platter and ohh my it was a ton of food for 2 people and 1 kids. We had two kids so needed to get one more kids meal. The food was excellent. The service was also very good, but for the price it better be expected.
The fried chicken that is famous is absolutely worth it. It was spiced perfectly, very moist, and flavorful. The mashed potatoes and gravy side were also very good and I'd recommend it. The steak was ordered medium but came medium rare, luckily I like it like that too, but wife prefers it a bit more cooked. Besides the collard greens that my family doesn't like, there really isn't anything we did not like.

I am from Louisiana and this fried chicken is amazing!! The best fried chicken I have ever had was my grandmas, this is a close second. Everything from cocktails to sides was delicious. Service was exceptional and the staff was incredibly friendly and welcoming. Do yourself a favor and eat here. I live 3 hours away and I’m already planning my next trip.

We love Slogar. After more than 10 years it's as good as we remember. The tomato chutney was really good; save some to have with the mashed potatoes! The chicken is moist and crisp, the ribs are tasty. Be prepared to waddle out!

Ayla and the amazing staff took care of our party of 20 with ease. The pre fixed menu was unreal, everything was cooked perfect and the timing of meals was on point. The craft cocktails go perfect with the fried chicken, but the steak and ribs were great even two days later! Thanks to the amazing staff at The Slogar, you all are great!! See you soon.

The food was very good and the wait staff is attentive and kind. The fried chicken and sides were great. The atmosphere is nice and southern. One issue is there is no non-dairy option for dessert, only the ice cream sammie. They were able to take a reservation for 12 which was good although the room we were placed in was in the back/on the side of the building and staff was coming in and out of the door next to our table with bins of dishes. Also, the bathroom is old so beware when flushing.

I had no idea what to expect. I will say i was pleasantly surprised. Seeing the prices i was taken aback at first. I quickly learned that this was a family style 3 course meal experience. The main course price included a variety of appetizers, your main course, and a plethora of sides. To finish the experience, an ice cream sandwich! I have a large appetite, and in my opinion this one meal can feed a family of 4.

The fixed menu didn't really work for our family with 2 kids (pretty expensive and too much food). We usually like to sit outside in the garden, but that wasn't an option for dinner. Probably won't be adding this to our usual circuit for CB.
