- AAmyAustin •4 reviews5.0Dined 2 days agoJason was our server. He took great care of us. He made nice suggestions. The cocktails were wonderful. Which each had a different entree and all outstanding. My only negative comment…. $12 for a basket of French Fries? That right there tells you that all prices are inflated. Bottom line, Roaring Forks is consistently delicious. The pork & green chili is NOT to be missed!More infoRoaring Fork - Downtown, CongressPrice: Expensive• Contemporary American• Downtown•4.7
