We have been to the Regional a few times over the past couple of years and it was our favorite restaurant in Fort Collins. We went yesterday and ordered the mussels which we've had twice before and loved. Don't know what happened since the last time we ate there, but these mussels were terrible. So bland, seriously lacking salt, which is odd because the dish has bacon in it?? We also added the bread for an additional $4 and it was horrible too. Really needed salt! We also had the meatballs, the sauce was pretty good but the meatball itself was overcooked and guess what..really needed salt! Idk if they ran out of salt or what but it's literally cooking 101 to add salt to dishes. We mentioned this to our server who didn't seem to care that we ate 2 mussels each and had one bite of bread. I also ordered "the hot one" drink, which was a warm cocktail, no where on the menu does it notate its hot (besides the title but I thought it meant it was spicy!). Since it was almost 80 degrees outside I had one sip and didn't drink any more. Server didn't notice and/or care. All in all, very disappointing and I don't think we'll be back.

I am a local to FoCo and this is a place my wife and I frequent with friends and out of town guests. They have a great all day happy hr deal on Tuesdays that we enjoy. Good food with reasonable prices!
Went in for some happy hour before a comedy show. Great happy hour deals. Mussels and oysters were fantastic. The burger was one of the best burgers I've had in FoCo. Definitely coming back.

Delicious food, nice atmosphere, kind and attentive wait staff. 4 stars because it took an excessive amount of time to receive our food.

Very much enjoyed my meal and experience. A bit on the pricey side, but you get what you pay for. I would go again.

Wonderful restaurant where they serve local food that is farm to fork! Delicious and healthy! Make sure you give them a try.

One of the best restaurants in town! Especially for gluten free friendly options. The service really stands out here- all the staff is so accommodating and friendly. Tonight I had a situation where they ran out of an essential element in the meal I ordered. Our server, James, and the owner Heidi were extremely sweet and went above and beyond to make sure I still had a pleasant experience. Thank you!!

There is this quail dish that's amazing. I would not mind more spice but it's just divine. Oysters are always fresh!!
Great evening overall, the food was delicious! Our server Lillian was attentive, knowledgeable and friendly!

It started with a hostess pointing out table without taking us there. When we sat down it was smallest high top with the most uncomfortable chairs of all time. I had made a reservation weeks ahead of time, when I asked if there was a better table I was told that I should request a better table next time, I’m sorry when you book at a place with $50+ plates I had no idea I had to request seating that is comfortable enough to enjoy my full meal at. Very disappointing experience, I’m not sure how they have so many positive reviews.

First time visiting this weekend and it was a great experience. We took the waiter's recommendation on specials and house drinks. Glad we did.

This was our first time dining in Fort Collins and I chose this place based on the high Yelp reviews. We didn't have a reservation but I only had to wait 5 mins for the team to clean off a table. We were greeted by our friendly server, Jax, who was nothing but kind and accommodating. He walked us through the menu and made thoughtful suggestions. We took in all of his suggestions and ordered the following: African Spiced Carrot Soup = a lovely, mildly spiced soup that I liked more than I thought I would. Truffle Mushroom Cheese Pretzel = this was my most favorite appetizer. The texture of the pretzel and creamy cheesy sauce was amazing. Regional Salad w Grilled Shrimp = just delicious with juicy shrimp on a bed of subtly dressed butter lettuce. West Coast Oysters = a great starter for those who love oysters like me. I got 1/2 dozen. Salmon on Israeli Couscous = the best salmon dish my hubby's ever had he states Mole Beef Short Rib = was absolutely yummy with a nice subtle mole sauce that wasn't overpowering. I made little soft tacos with the accompanied tortillas and slaw. ....and for dessert: Buttermilk Cheesecake in a jar = hubby inhaled that sucker; and I got the spiced date & butterscotch bread pudding = let's just say I was so full from dinner but I still made a sizable dent in that bad boy. We loved our dinner and had a wonderful dining experience.
