I have a second home in Silverton, so I visit multiple times a year for weeks at a time. When I'm NOT in town, I get mouth-watering CRAAAVINGS for Natalia's Philly chicken sandwich! It's a very simple dish, but the bread is always fresh, the chicken is tender and juicy with no gristle. Add melty cheese and seasoned, sautéed veggies. *Sluuurp* Is the service slow? Yeah, sometimes. But as a "local" whose schedule is not dictated by the train timetable, I don't really care if I have to wait a bit (within reason, of course). A few summers in a row, Natalia's has hired back the same servers who are non-native English speakers. I always show patience when they're taking my order, and I let the servers know they can help the tourists first since they're the ones on a more rigid time schedule. Listen, Silverton is BEAUTIFUL, but it's frickin' remote and "small towny" as hell. It's not an easy place for ANYONE to live, much less someone who isn't born-and-bred American. What an incredible opportunity it is for Natalia's servers to get to know this magnificent place WHILE working a service industry job (sometimes more than one!) and BRAVELY immersing themselves in not only a new language, but in what is surely a crazy culture shock.

Food came very slowly. My friend had a BLT. Bacon and the bread was stale. Chicken soup tasted weird according to her. My Club sandwich was gas station quality. Stale bun with deli ham and cheese. I would not recommend them at all. We live two hours away but we wont be going back to Natalia's.

Tried the buffet it was really good. The service was good, they got really busy as we were the last train of then season. Overall good spot to eat lunch while taking the train ride.

This restaurant should have a "self serve" sign on the front door. Worst experience ever. The menu and website say full bar. Our server said only beer and wine were available. We walked inside to order a shot from the bar (willing to pay two separate tabs) which shouldn't be hard. The servers behind the bar acted clueless as to what to do. I understand it's an old western restaurant but the staff should be trained on what to do on busy days. Maybe consider running two registers. It was all a complete mess. Never again.

Came since the patio was dog friendly. I wouldn't feed my dog the food. Waitress said they only have beer and wine. Found out it was a full bar ordered 3 shots for the table. All three shots came in one glass. Waited 45 mins to close out the check. DONT GO TO THIS PLACE.

We were lead to believe that this place was a good place to eat by the bus driver from the Durango-Silverton RR. All I say is that his review was that it was The Best place to eat in Silverton. I can honestly say that he was a better bus driver than a food ctitic. This place is dank and dingy from the first look. It had a really musty smell like furniture in an old, leaky house. The overall appearance was "why are we here.."? But, since the driver had so much good to say, we decided that maybe the food IS good. BAD decision..!! The food, it turns out, is worse than the "ambiance ". We did the Durango-Silverton train again last week and this time, at our stop in Silverton, we AVOIDED Natalia's. We suggest you do the same.

We went here after we arrived by the train, decide to try this place. The food was ok, nothing special.

This last weekend my husband and I spent Saturday in Silverton. We were told to eat here. Best decision! We hit it right after the train had left so it was quiet and not busy at all. The food is amazing. I got the chili burger and my husband got the Elk. It was beyond delicious! The people are super friendly and nice. Thank you for a great meal!Kid-friendliness: The staff welcomed you with a warm smile and very professional

Had the trout and fries and was extremely disappointed. Trout should be grilled not deep fried in the same oil as the fries. It all had the same taste.

We were in Silverton to ride the Durango-Silverton Scenic Railroad down to Durango. Upon arriving in Town, we had some time to kill and decided to have lunch. Natalia’s was recommended by a couple of Locals, so we decided to check it out. Upon arrival we were immediately seats, and our server took our drink order. By the time our drinks arrived we were ready to order. Our server was very pleasant and very efficient. While waiting for our food we enjoyed the vintage theme of the restaurant. For my lunch I chose the ½ Pound Burger with fries. The burger was cooked to order and topped with Lettuce, Tomato, mayonnaise, and Onion. The burger and fries were served hot and were very tasty. The Only thing that could have been better was a couple of people in our group ordered soda’s and when they were served, they were flat. They ended up having water. The service was really good and the food tasty. The vintage theme of the restaurant added to an enjoyable experience. This was a good choice for lunch.

The waitress was so slow the food was really expensive and not that great. Waited 20 minutes for a ticket and started to just leave cash and walk out when she showed up. If there were zero stars, that would be what I would rate it.

Save your money. It's all frozen and heated. Not home made $16.00 BLT! The chicken fried steak and mashed potatos were not good at all.

Great little place for lunch. One of the best all beef kraut dogs I've had in years. Service was great, both fast and friendly. Other great sandwich choices here as well; burgers too. Oh, and do try the German bread pudding, not too sweet, but very good indeed.
