Restaurants in Fountain

Thanks to its impressive selection of varietals from more than 95 local wineries, The Wines of Colorado has been lauded as "one of the most unique wine shops in the country" by Wine Trail Traveler and featured in the Wall Street Journal. Inside, a mural of larger-than-life bottles lines one wall, and an adjacent room houses an expansive tasting counter that stocks a lineup of bottles filled with Colorado reds and whites, which are often compared to Californian vinos. Their food has received it’s fair share of recognition as well, earning numerous awards, including Best Creekside Dining from the [Gazette] in 2010 and 2011. The chefs sizzle up signature buffalo wine burgers and creamy dill mahi-mahi, which guests can enjoy on the pine-tree-lined outdoor patio as they sip wine mere steps away from the burbling Fountain Creek.

Servers at Angels & Mariachis deliver pitchers of margaritas, fresh guacamole, and an array of gourmet Mexican plates. Soft tortillas wrap meaty taco cores composed of high-quality ingredients such as duck, lobster, short rib, and chipotle cream. Chefs derive entrees from a reimagined cuisine in which risotto is infused with smoked chipotle pepper and chicken glistens with brazilian black-beer-mustard glaze. Signature margaritas flow from glasses and pitchers, DJ music permeates the air, and karaoke nights give patrons the chance to wield the microphone or just scream into soft tacos.
