“Wonderful food and great setting!“

“fabulous food with Fred the fantastic server!!“

“I came to the Fireside Grill as part of package deal through the Nordic Center to go snowshoeing for several hours before capping the day off with a generous plate of wine and cheese AND dessert! The food was delicious and Lizzie took phenomenal care of me as I enjoyed my meal. Her kindness and attentiveness was much appreciated. I highly recommend this experience through the Nordic Center as well as the Fireside Grill for its excellent food and lovely staff.“

“Beautiful view. Check out line on the deck was very slow and the manager is stingy.“

“It was a bit of a labyrinth getting through the hotel maze to find the restaurant, but worth it. Small but interesting menu. We liked the creative drink options and truly enjoyed the Alpine Sangria. The blackened grouper was delicious, and the wedge salad with pork rind was just right, not over dressed. We sat outside on the patio, and just as the sun went down and temperatures cooled, they turned on the fire pits to keep us comfortable. Our waitress Finn was cheerful and efficient, and our host even offered our dog a bowl of water. We really liked the place and will definitely return!“

“The Charter Smash Burger was the only item recommended on the bar dinner menu. That is what we and everyone else in the bar ordered. The Hamburger was good. Cooked the way we asked for it to be prepared. The French Fries were perfect. Hand cut. Thin & Crisp.“

“From the moment we entered, the staff was friendly and accommodating. We didn’t have reservations for dinner anywhere this evening and they were happy to squeeze us in. Famished from our active day and long search for a restaurant with availability, we were ready to get down to business. They had a few interesting options on their appetizer menu. We decided on the egg rolls and a couple of signature cocktails, which all came out pretty quick compared to the amount of time and care that was probably put into each. We had a hard time choosing entrees as we love pasta, cheese, and meat (who doesn’t??) but finally settled on the gnocchi and bolognese. Both great! So great that instead of stuffing ourselves of the large portion, we tried to stop so that we would have a meal-sized portion for leftovers. Keyword: tried. It was hard to stop eating! We managed to salvage some to enjoy later and our wonderful server Eliana (sp?) packed it up for us. Throughout the meal, our server came by, to check in and never let our water glasses come close to empty. They had some yummy donuts on display near the entrance. We commented on how adorable they were. The staff was quick to offer a few to us at no charge which was really nice. Sadly, we were just too full from our meal to accept. We didn’t partake this time, but we did see a number of people seemingly come in just to browse the wine and grab a bottle to take home. They had a pretty good selection. From the exceptional service to the decadent pasta dishes, we’re coming back for sure. How this place isn’t packed to the gills on a Saturday night, I have no idea! Keep up the good work, keep doing what you’re doing!“

“Been to this nice restaurant many times and it’s always first class. Tonight my wife’s chicken was excellent. The wine was great. However, the Manhattan steak was not so good. The one that was brought out was extremely tough and even hard to cut into. Our lovely server offered to bring out a new one but I said I would fight through it. To her credit, she insisted on bringing out a new one and I asked for it to be Medallion cut. The replacement came out and should have been medium rare, but when I laid out the cuts it was simply very rare to raw with lots of fat as well. I simply refused to eat it and told her to just take it off the bill. To my surprise the wonderful Manager Dana immediately came over and admitted that they failed on the steak. He explained that they usually get great cuts from the provider, but recently not so much and he actually called the owner and told him they simply can’t be offering this kind of steak as this was not the first bad cut he has seen this evening. Dana did not charge me for the steak as well as the wine and offered a free desert. Dana did exactly what I’d expect a Manager to do in this caliber of a restaurant and that alone makes me want to come back again whichever we will do so!“

“Love hanging out at the George! Any season throughout the year is a good time here. Great selection of beers and the redbull slushies are great too. Bar service is quick even when they get a little busy. The food at this bar is top notch. My favorite go to is definitely the duck and mushroom quesadilla. Its a great snack if your really hungry or a decent meal if not! Ski season Après The George is the place to be. Find it down the stairs and enjoy some damn good food and drinks.“

“On the receipt it said our server was Raul. He was awesome and made an iced espresso that my girlfriend thought was much better than Starbucks. The coffee creation was on the house… even the second one. The breakfast was very good and priced fairly. Because of it all, left a little over 50% tip and happy. Well done.“

“Excellent meal at Juniper last night. Scallop appetizer was excellent as was the Halibut. Had a glass of California bubbly that was as good as most champagnes I've had. Nice wine list but only had a glass as I was solo. Service was friendly, knowledgeable and friendly. They have a nice patio out front but not quite patio weather. Will be back next time through Edwards!“

“Awesome experience from great staff to amazing food and atmosphere.“

“Awesome service and menu. Andrew great with wine selections. Sat outside and thoroughly enjoyed our evening. Sorry we made you stay late. 🥰🥰🤣🤣“

“As usual an excellent meal.“

“Everyone loved their food. Ribs had a great sauce and meat fell off the bone (they even give you a bone bowl), burger, chicken sandwich, and wings. And the mudslide drink is noteworthy. Our server was lackluster and perhaps assigned more tables than he could keep up with. I was quite put off by the gum stuck under my chair that I touched when sliding my chair in—they really should check all the chairs for this regularly. The food was great even though the other stuff could use improvement. I did notice the water staff and other servers were doing a great job, so would expect improved service if coming back again, which we would as the food was great, but won’t grab the chair very closely next time… I like that they take reservations. You can valet park your car for a fee or just park in vail public parking and walk.“

“We hired Chi-Shack for a corporate food truck night in Vail. Mark and his team did a great job! The variety of different brats and dogs and toppings was delicious and they even brought fries and canned sodas to go along with the meal. Mark was really responsive when booking the event and flexible with pricing. Highly recommend!“

“Absolutely delicious food served consistently with a smile!! Really cool, fun interior that’s also comfortable for hanging out if you want to catch a game or meet up with friends! I highly recommend checking it out if you haven’t already but fair warning, once you have you’re going to crave their food - it’s that good!“

“The best restaurant in Vail!“

“I was pretty disappointed this season with the limited options this time. The food is served apparently only some days.. then there's no wait staff I guess anymore, and as much as this place suppose to be bumpin' for any apres ski time they decide to close at 4pm or so.. blew my mind.. absolutely the most prime real estate .. the way its ran I guarantee they're hitting less than 50% of its potential revenue! [It's a very obvious observation] no entertainment just self order line. Please be better.. make Vail resorts $$ so ppl don't need to pay $300 day for skiing“

“Wonderful staff working hard to serve everyone.“

“Great atmosphere and food“

“Excellent food & service! Highly recommend“

“Hidden gem that we discovered years ago after bowling with our entire family. Good food, and service great and recently introduced Sandman Karaoke which was so fun to watch. We had a very enjoyable evening with friends but very family oriented place as well and food yummy without breaking the bank. Tacos best ever!“

“We love this restaurant! The food is phenomenal! Lunch and dinner are both great!“

“Amazing place. Classic Vail. Highly recommended.“

“Me and my family visited Gessner last weekend for dinner while staying at Grand Hyatt. The ambiance is really nice, very classy with those mountain views, but the food was a bit hit and miss :(

We ordered the chicken breast, which I was really looking forward to. The meat quality was good, no doubt, but it was lacking that punch of flavor. it felt a bit bland, like they forgot to add something.

My wife got the pesto pasta, which was better, but still too dry for our liking. It had good flavor, but needed more sauce to make it perfect.

Service was excellent.

The presentation of dishes was nice, though, and the place is super clean and fancy.

Overall, it was above average.“

“Great place to meet for larger groups. New seasonal menu, tasty fare, friendly servers. Bartender Frank was very attentive, ask Tyler about his new drink, "Camp Fire Mule, and Isabel always happy to serve you.

Vegetarian options: Falafel“

“Good variety of cold beer and a great local place. Music is good and the wings and tries are excellent. It’s a hole in the wall so if you’re looking for luxury, this is not the place for you, but if you’re looking for comfort, food and good friends, this is the place. Our guy Vic was awesome!“

“the food was amazing. So fresh and delicious. The staff was equally impressing with great attitude and professionalism“

“I’ve been to Mountain Standard on a number of occasions and have never been disappointed with anything i’ve ordered. The appetizer biscuits are a comfort to me and one of my favorite starters ever. Earlier today I tried the Cubano sandwich and it was genuinely life changing. I haven’t stopped thinking about how I may never have a sandwich as good again.“

“Kasey and her team truly exceeded our expectations from start to finish.

From our very first meeting through the wedding day itself, their attention to detail was outstanding. The food was absolutely delicious, and we loved the way it was served in small batches—it never felt like a typical buffet, and everything stayed fresh and inviting. The butternut squash lasagna ended up being one of the biggest hits of the night, even among the most devoted meat lovers in our group!

The drinks were fantastic, and the staff brought such great energy and friendliness that they helped keep the celebration fun all night long.

We couldn’t be happier with our choice of The Saloon for our reception and would wholeheartedly recommend them to anyone planning an event.“

“Consistently amazing food, service and ambiance. Love dining at The Rose!“

“Favorite local spot for dinner drinks and all the right laid-back Colorado vibes you can handle. When I worked in Vail this is the spot everyone would go after work for food and drinks and if the locals love it you know it's good. If you're visiting Vail in the summer, winter, or ever the October mud season when everyone's gone, you HAVE to try Garfs at least once. You won't regret it.“

“Grabbed an iced chai latte on break, it was refreshing. The barista was very friendly, even when guests came in for ice cream, which is next door, she'd point them in the right direction and tell them to enjoy their ice cream. This place can get packed quickly, but afternoon in the summer are quite pleasant.“

“Bob's place is the 1# best restaurant to eat at in Avon co. very excellent service when we were ready to order, they came in a timely manner to to take it down to put it into the kitchen. Our waitress kept on checking on us and kept on getting us drinks. She was spot on excellent great lunch options. I ordered the grilled chicken honey mustard sandwich with fries when I took a bite of the sandwich and a bite of the fries. It was super delicious. If you are new to this town check out bob's place in order the honey mustard chicken sandwich with fries. Best #1 sandwich I would say my opinion.“

“Service is a bit slow. Rachel, the bartender, was our waiter...she was working two jobs, but she is excellent. Our party of four enjoyed all of our food and the view from the deck cannot be beat! I had the Lemonade la coca, Hearts of palm ceviche and the Harvest burger. All were wonderful. I will order again!“

“The bbq pizza was the best pizza I have ever had. The waiter was a little under par. He just wasn't as attentive to us as he was others. We ordered 2 beers he only brought one. And when we said we wanted 2. He had a attitude. But then apologized right before he brought the bill.“

“We have this experience two summers as we had a new waiter the first time but same waiter this time. Our order took over an hr to get and the waiter came back after 45 min wait to tell us our 15 month child menu was not available. How could they not know when we ordered from children's menu. Unexceptionable! Then after over hr food came but one did not receive her smash burger. That is inexcusable! Waiter then came back to apologize. The manager was very polite and comp our meal. We actually liked the food we finally got which is sad. We will not try it again from two experiences the same.“

“Husband and I split the Nashville hot chicken sandwich and the meat lovers pizza. Both were bomb. Our friends got the fish tacos and a smash burger and they had great reviews of their food as well. Loved the open kitchen concept and ambiance of the place. For sure going to go again when we come back!“

“Avocado toast with a side of breakfast potatoes...can't go wrong! 😋💜👍“

“Absolutely loved. Our server Johnie was laid back and knowledgeable. Heirloom tomato salad was outstanding (cucumbers, avocado, local cherries, Serrano chiles ...), can't say enough. Also loved the scallops and seared Tuna. Most skilled food prep we've had out in a long time.“

“Located at the top of Gondola 19 in Lionshead, Eagle’s Nest has several eateries for skiers and riders. The food here is good, although expensive. Over the past two years, the menu options and quality have improved significantly.There is a good bar on the first floor, Bistro 14. This use to be a restaurant, but post-COVID, it is just a bar.“

“Too many great experiences to list… if ya know, YA KNOW! 🇺🇸🔥🥩🔥🇺🇸“

“We made this our special dinner for our time in Vail...and Elways did not disappoint. I had the short rib, and it was literally the best I've ever had. Fall apart tender, great tasting au jus, awesome creamy horse radish sauce. We also had the halibut. Not cheap...but the food, service, and atmosphere were perfect.“

“Pleased to find a vacant table and immediately offered choice of drinks, followed by a waitress to take our order. Lovely selection of food options and delivered just as ordered. Bottomless cups of coffee and also glass of water supplied to each.“

“Stopped in for breakfast. Hubby loved the Nutella Pancakes. He wanted the biscuits and gravy, which says they are very good...they had no more biscuits! I had the 2 eggs, sausage patty, potatoes and Sourdough toast. Definitely worth the stop.“

“Dusty Boot never disappoints! Had two delicious burgers this visit. Johnny was an exceptional waiter.“
