"Try our made to order hand-tossed pies made with quality ingredients, and don’t forget to include our locally famous breadsticks with your order! What else goes great with Pizza? Wings! Another favorite item with a choice of over a dozen different amazing sauces. More menu items include our Calzones, 8” Baked Subs, Salads, and for dessert we offer cinnamon sticks with homemade cream cheese frosting. Also available at our shops is hard serve ice cream! Our other ice cream desserts include cones, sundaes, floats and banana splits – yum!" reads the Pizza Edge website. At the Kayenta location, I ordered cheese breadsticks, which were unlike any other I've had. They are not sticks, rather, a mass of bubbled bread topped with butter, cheese and seasoning. It was like pull-apart bread, which was fun - but definitely messy. I also enjoyed a build-your-own sub: American Cheese, Cheddar Cheese, Swiss Cheese, Ham, Roast Beef, Turkey, Lettuce, & Black Olives. I like my subs full of toppings, and this one didn't disappoint. I added mayo but would love a house sauce.

J. Fargo's is a family-friendly, casual dining restaurant that features burgers, steaks, seafood, smoked meats, broaster fried chicken and even southwest specialties, like tacos, burritos and quesadillas. That big ol' sirloin & shrimp on the menu was calling my name. 8 oz., hand-carved and flame-grilled. Grilled shrimp. Plus, a garden salad, Brussels sprouts, and a baked potato. The garden salad had some tomato, peppers, cheese, radish and onion. That's not too shabby for a basic salad, but nothing super exciting either. Moving onto the entrée, the steak was pretty good, if not a bit fatty which I enjoy for the flavor but less so for the mouth feel. My favorite part was the compound butter on top. The Brussels sprouts were a bit more charred than my personal preference. The potato was solid with lots of toppings. Grade: B

"Sherpa Cafe is a family-owned and run business which serves classic Nepali, Indian and Tibetan cuisine. We are originally from Nepal and have been living in the Gunnison Valley with our families for many years. We are ethnic Sherpa from the Khumbu (Mt. Everest region of Nepal). Our restaurant has allowed us to share our way of life with our guests and friends for more than a decade," reads the website. I was ecstatic at the idea of trying Nepali and Tibetan cuisine, because I had never experienced those before. And once I set food inside, the excitement only grew. The restaurant has colorful decor and intricate designs. The menu features items like papadums, saag dip, samosas, pakora and naan. I started with an order of momos stuffed with beef. Mine were fried, rather than steamed. Super tasty with the tomato-based dipping sauce.

"Momo is a Himalayan dumpling, filled with minced meat in a flour dough, given different shapes and then cooked by steaming. It is one of the most popular foods in Nepal and the regions of Sikkim, Darjeeling and Kalimpong in India where Nepali-speaking Indians have a presence. Momo were originally filled with buffalo meat but are now commonly filled with goat or chicken, as well as vegetarian preparations," according to Wikipedia. The chicken thukpa was hearty and flavorful. It was piping hot, and I even enjoyed it on a warm day. Plus a hint of spice. Grade: A

With an old world influenced style, Sauce on the Blue's menu offers a selection of Italian dishes - from classic favorites like Spaghetti Bolognese to more contemporary dishes like Penne Gorgonzola. That Penne Gorgonzola sounded right up my alley and reminded me of the grape & gorgonzola pizza at Pies & Pints. The dish has gorgonzola cream sauce, chicken, red grapes and baby spinach. It goes hard in the flavor category with the bright pops of sweetness with the grapes paired with the creamy funkiness of the cheese. The only downfall for me was the bits of chicken that were a bit rubbery, which can give me the ick pretty easily. Grade: B

Roast - Craft Coffee & Libations is the result of a passion for fresh, flavorful, craft made beverages. That passion led to the creation of the San Luis Valley Brewing Company in 2006, and is also the reason for the small batch roasted coffee ... Started on a 1/2 lb. home roaster, community support and quality products enabled ROAST to open in 2014 as the San Luis Valley's first Roastery-Brewery-Restaurant combination, according to their website. They offer smoothies, so I went for a mango-pineapple. This was cool and fruity and refreshing. I'm sure most people would opt for the coffee, but on a warm day, this is the spot for me. I also ordered a breakfast quesadilla: scrambled eggs with sausage, cheese, tomato, onion, and a side of salsa. This was a simple breakfast but done well. Maybe a bit on the bland side but nothing a fun sauce or unique ingredient couldn't fix. Grade: B
