We love having this fine dining spot in Evergreen. The view of the lake is wonderful. Tasty cocktails and food. It’s definitely a longer dinner service but that’s part of the appeal. The mussels, purple haze and cream brûlée were on point tonight.

Shouldn't have to leave hungry. I know they were short staffed, but this day was ridiculous. The beet salad had ingredients missing.

Went to Willow Creek recently and had a wonderful experience. Staff is experienced and professional, it’s always nice to see familiar faces. The menu is updated regularly, which, as a local, is appreciated! I am a local business owner and send lots of guests here and they are always treated so well! I also respect management and their decision making when it comes to doing the right thing for the quality of the food and the safety of their staff. We are grateful to have Willow Creek in Evergreen!!

They cancelled my reservation which I planned days ago for my daughter’s birthday due to some light snow.Weather conditions are not severe to cancel a reservation.Is winter and it snows in Colorado.If the reservation was for late night or even evening I would’ve understood but 2 pm? Ridiculous!!We drove to Morrison and had a wonderful experience somewhere else. Weather was beautiful!!!! Photo how the weather was at 2pm.

Enjoyed a nice lunch overlooking the lake. The ingredients are high quality and portion sizes were appropriate. The beet salad was fresh and delicious, the truffle fries are to die for! They’re crispy on the outside and soft on the inside. The service was good, they let us sit and enjoy the view. The prices are a little high for what you get.

Amazing service from Rose, Leann and Elizabeth! So glad we stopped in and then celebrated our friend’s engagement here! Good was wonderful — got the chicken sandwich and don’t miss out on the truffle fries!
Disappointing anniversary dinner. Between the online reviews and reviews from friends we were excited to try Willow Creek for the first so much that we thought it would make for a great spot for our anniversary. Unfortunately, after our experience it was hard to believe this was even the same place we had heard about. Things started off pretty good as we were sat promptly when we arrived for our 6:45 reservation. The first red flag was that they were out of the special by 6:45--seems early for the special to run out. Not a big deal in the big picture and our appetizers came promptly-- the burrata was honestly one of the best I've add. Unfortunately, things spiraled downward quickly from there. We ordered our entrees at the same time as our appetizers so one would assume they would have the entrees preparation backed up but it was more than 30 min from the time they took our appetizer plates away til we finally got our entrees and over an hour from the time we initially ordered them. After the waitstaff passed by our table void of plate several times i finally stop a different server to ask about the timing to which they replied "they were getting plated next." No apology. When the food finally came we were in for our next disappointment. The "shrimp scampi" was served w whole shrimp heads and shells still on. My wife spent most of her meal peeling shrimp that were covered in oil and spices. We didn't say anything at the time b/c we thought maybe we had overlooked the description on the menu but it turned their was nothing on the menu that hinted at the fact that it might be more like peeling crawdad than having a pasta dish w shrimp. My meal was not as labor intensive but what was sold as a New York strip tasted a lot more like top round. The meat was cooked to order perfectly med rare but chewed a lot like rubber. It was also covered with some sort of sauce that was not bad but looking at the Willow creeks pictures online it did not resemble. I have had enough steak in my life to know the difference between a NY strip and a cheap cut of meat. This was definitely the latter and question why the sauce was on there. Had we received our entrees in a timely manner I would have likely just sent them back and asked for a different dinner entree but by the time we got the meal we were hungry and late for a concert to follow so we were left in few options. I understand that many people have had much better experiences but it sounds like consistency is an issue. We really had high expectations and the location is lovely but I was much more satisified with my $40 breakfast at the Wildflower Cafe.

This place exceeded our expectations! The service was top notch. Rose was attentive and very helpful. The food was next level. I had the winter squash risotto and my husband had the gnocchi and both were amazingly flavorful. Would be happy to come back and try more dishes.

We love Willow Creek! Our favorite brunch on the weekends and our go-to date night when we want to stay in town! Excellent staff and outstanding food! I’ll have to remember to take pictures and update when we go! Most of the time we devour the food as soon as it hits the table, I’m amazed I got these!
