Visited the Red Snapper on a Sunday evening after reading reviews in Tripadvisor. We were not disappointed - great food, service and ambience and friendly and efficient staff. On two occassions the owner even came over to check if everything was in order. The salad bar was extensive, the bread was fresh and warm and the meals (various steaks) perfectly... more

This is a wonderful place to eat. The service is exemplary every time. The atmosphere is warm, fun, cozy and relaxing. Their salad bar is to die for and the entrees are equally as good. We've lived in Durango since the early 1990s and have only had excellent experiences at The Red Snapper. It's obvious the staff are highly trained... more

If you are ever in Durango you should not miss a visit to the Red Snapper restuarant, 144 East 9th Street, just off the main drag. The restaurant has a cosy and intimate atmosphere and combines a high standard of food with being family friendly. As its name implies it offers a range of well presented and great value fish... more

We have been to the Red Snapper several times, most recently in May 2008. It's always good with excellent service. Probably has the best, albeit small, salad bar in Durango. I highly recommend this restaurant. It's not cheap, but the value is consistent with the pricing. more

WOW!! What a phenomenal restaurant! The service was spectacular and the food...Best in DURANGO!!! We really enjoyed the atmosphere with the large fish tank and aquarium. Our table was located next to the open kitchen - which gave us great pleasure to watch the chef(s) as they prepared our dinners. Our server was very busy although she was more attentive... more

We are locals to durango for more than 8 years . We found the restaurant through some other locals, and it has become our favorite place to eat. The chowder reminds me of Seattle and the salad bar is great. the food is consistant and the service attentive. recommended to all. more

Some of the best food ever. Extremely pricey, lousy service, and a cramped dining room do not make the best restaurant ever. more

Sometime between May of 2006 and May of 2007 something went seriously wrong here. Prior to 2007 this was one of my family's favorite restaurants. It became our tradition to visit this upscale seafood establishment on the last night prior to returning home from vacation... it was our last great 'splurge' before going back to our normal everyday lives. Our... more
