The Flying Fork

We walked in and no hostess. Found someone who gruffly said go back there. Back patio was beautiful. Server brought wrong order than later said she forgot our order. I had a simple pizza . Crust was great but the cheese was still hard and the pizza had a very strange flavor. My wife had a Salmon pasta that like mine had been cooked to quickly and didn’t taste right. Being generous with 3 stars as they were having staff issues

If you want to have an amazing culinary experience you need to visit The Flying Fork. The ambience is incredible. The food! The food is amazing! Everything was wonderful. So wonderful we went back the next day. Jessica made the experience even better. She was delightful. I will definitely coming back and I highly recommend you pay them a visit.

One of our favorite places to go in Paonia. We visit each fall, and enjoy the food and atmosphere of this restaurant. Quiet, no horrid music playing like so many restaurants these days. The owners are a husband and wife team, arm friendly and competent people who make you feel welcome and at home. Don’t miss out and get there early and enjoy outside dining on the shaded patio!

Delicious find in Paonia… we had the Burrata, Spinaci salad, pasta primavera and short ribs. Jen was our sweet wonderful waitress and the entire staff was excellent. We will be back anytime our travels bring us this way (after a day wine tasting at the Black Bridge or Azura… exploring Kebler Pass and the beautiful aspens and ferns).

I've seen the Fork revolve over the last twelve years, and I love its latest Sicilian incarnation. The food is excellent with preference to local produce and wine. Most recently we were delighted by the Monday night pizza buffet, which had fantastic pies and one of the best caprese I've ever had. It wasn't exactly a cheap Monday night meal, but I don't know how they're making money with this caliber of food either. It remains a little gem in a town with few options.
