Twist: Menu & Drinks

Don't confuse food with a "culinary twist" as being not hearty or filling. Diners at the Twist will be rewarded with scrumptious stick-to-the-ribs fare.

An example is the Almond Crusted Seared Ruby Red Trout. This fish entree includes pan-roasted fingerling potatoes, house-made basil pesto, and a brown butter sauce.

When craving something from the grill, opt for the 10oz Buffalo NY Strip Steak. The steak is grilled to your liking and comes with whipped Yukon gold potatoes and blackberry sage demi.

For sides, it's hard to beat the Truffle Mac and Cheese. This comfort food uses Cavatappi macaroni noodles, truffle cream, cheese curds, and house bread crumbs.

The Twist has an extensive wine list and craft cocktails. Of note is the Nothing Gold Can Stay. This craft libation features Woodford Reserve bourbon, Hennessy cognac, and Benedictine bitters.

Another standout is the Cat's Cradle with Pea flower-infused Breckenridge gin, Cointreau, fresh lemon juice, cinnamon simple syrup, and egg white.
