Evergreen Restaurant Guide

Curtis and Kristopher Lincoln have spent the last 13 years working together in nine different restaurants across the country. They met while working together in Cherry Creek and the rest is history. Collectively they have over 50 years in the industry! Both knew that someday they would own a restaurant, finding one another was simply fate! Working together is what we do best. Kristopher & Curtis returned to Evergreen in 2005. They spent most of their 13 year marriage working in restaurants across the nation. Game Creek Club in Vail, Cafe Soleil in Reno, The Straight Wharf on Nantucket, Restaurant RM in Las Vegas are just a few examples. Kristopher says that each and every restaurant was a learning experience and a gift. She says, We have learned from every person we have worked for and with the good, the bad and the ugly. After spending most of their marriage traveling, she and Curtis decided to return to Evergreen and the family ranch on Upper Bear Creek Road located just 3 miles from the restaurant. Curtis' family has resided in Evergreen since the early 1900s, His grandmother and an Evergreen legend, Freddie Lincoln was inspirational in their return. Curtis went to work for the Brown Palace Hotel down in Denver. The fact that his grandmother Freddie had such an affinity for the hotel inspired him to take the Executive Sous position where he remained for almost 5 years. We are blessed to have this opportunity," says Kristopher. All of us at the restaurant are dedicated to making Willow Creek a success. It is so wonderful to have such a reliable and professional team. When one of us needs to back off, the others step up truly amazing!" We are so lucky to be back in Evergreen, to have this wonderful location and to be doing what we love. We have gained the trust of the community and hope to be a huge success both locally and internationally."
