This was a fantastic meal. Slow start with an average gin martini at a hi-top (in the bar) table for our 52 anniversary😘. However at 6 the bar quiets down and the outstanding food service begins. The Lobster bisque and salad both wonderful, and the bread the best west of San Fran! Followed by entrees of scallops and lamb the best food ever in Colorado. The wine guy walking by hears us discuss which wine and tops all expectation…yes for a price but so worth it. Thank you all for spectacular service and a good memory to remember. We will be back ( work on that Martini ….🤣

Austin's American Grill - Old Town

About the restaurant

Austin's American Grill is the quintessential taste of Colorado. With three great Fort Collin's locations-one in the heart of Old Town, another on Harmony Road and one in Greeley, we'll have you wondering why mom's food never tasted so good and when you can come back for more. Savory roasts and chicken cooked over an open flame in our front-of-the-house rotisserie. All-natural buffalo seasoned to perfection. Cornbread baked in iron skillets with honey butter. Signature cocktails sweetened with fresh-squeezed fruit juice. Plus, our decadent desserts are made fresh daily, giving you an excuse to stop in for a slice that reminds you of home. There's a reason Austin's is one of Northern Colorado's favorite destinations.
