Best Restaurants with a Happy Hour in Manitou Springs

The food at Mackenzie’s is always delicious! We chose the restaurant for our Christmas dinner and dined the Sunday before to keep it a quiet celebration. Everything was perfect from the food prep to the pace and friendliness of service. We sat in a quiet alcove that I didn’t even know existed. A great place to have a great meal.

Great food from a local celebrity chef. I always bring family and friends here when they’re visiting Springs.

WOW! We had such an amazing experience, it was our anniversary and they made us feel so special. The open kitchen is really cool and it was fun to watch the chefs and the outstanding work they do. Rebecca is very knowledgeable about food & wine, she made great recommendations and her service was exceptional. The bison short ribs were so delicious, I can’t stop thinking about them. Thank you to the whole staff for giving us such a memorable anniversary!

From the second you walk through the door, you feel like family. This was my first visit and has already become a staple for us. Carlos greets you with a vibrant smile and genuine excitement for you being there! From the first greeting to the closing of the check, you feel 100% taken care of and valued. An amazing and beautiful dinner. I have never been to a restaurant where the host met u at your car. Carlos Bistro is an exceptional restaurant with mouth watering entrees. The pork belly was so good and oysters on the half shell very fresh. Will definitely visit again. Thank you Carlos.

Everything was absolutely wonderful! Our server, Ozzie, was over the top with his experience, recommendations and just general engagement. He is a treasure!
