“My husband & I love The Rapids restaurant. It’s our go to when we want a wonderful meal. The food is top notch & Tatiana is such a special lady & makes the dining experience that much better. The Chef, Max, never disappoints. It’s the cutest setting. I look forward to eating outside by the river as the weather gets nicer. A++ from me. If you want a great meal & special dining experience go here! 😊”

“We enjoyed our coffee with a delicious elderberry filled croissant and an equally delicious cinnamon roll. The proprietor, Shane, was friendly and very knowledgeable about the area and things to do and see. We enjoyed chatting with him for quite a bit. His sweet Tiki helped ease the missing of my own dog. 😊 Eclectic products to purchase. Definitely a place to step into.”

“Traditional Italian style wood fired pizza in Grand Lake, Colorado! We loved the Firefly special, the Margarita, the Carnivore, and the Funghi pizzas we ordered. The gelato was also authentic and a refreshing treat for dessert! Owner Mark Consiglio makes the dough fresh in house and his lovely wife and children work in the restaurant! This is a truly special place-don’t miss out on your next trip to Grand Lake!!”

“After checking out Rocky Mountain National Park, we decided to try Grand Lake’s Pizza. I called in for pickup but forgot to ask about the prices beforehand (rookie mistake). We ordered a Supreme and a Hawaiian. Before I even looked at the receipt, I wanted to guess what they cost… and let’s just say the price left me stunned.

Now, don’t get me wrong—the pizzas were probably some of the best I’ve ever had. The crust tasted fresh, the toppings were flavorful, and the cheese was generously layered. Even the sauce stood out—rich, tangy, and clearly made with care. The pepperoni and ham were nothing like what you get at chain places; they weren’t greasy or overly salty. And surprisingly, the pizzas themselves weren’t oily at all.
So here I am, going back and forth in my head: yes, the pizzas were incredible, but the price made us feel a bit scammed—especially being from out of town. At the same time, part of me keeps justifying it because the quality really was that good.

In short: hands down the best pizza we’ve ever had… but also the most expensive.”

“Cute shop, good coffee ☕️”

“Grand Manor hosted a 50th birthday party for my husband and knocked it out of the park! They provided a delicious buffet dinner complete with appetizers and desserts. Guests loved the variety of cocktails, especially the Old Fashions. And the house made birthday cake - oh my gosh - delicious! The basement level and cigar lounge were also open to us for more after-dinner fun and dancing. If you are looking for a venue to host your next event, give them a call!”

“This place is awesome! Down home feel for real. Chris the bartender is talkative, friendly and working his butt off. Beer is cold and the wings are on point. I'm coming back next time we're in town for sure. Check it out!”

“Ray was our bartender/server/surrogate mom for the evening, and she made our night an 11/10. The food was great, the drinks were exceptional, and Ray's attention made my husband's 40th birthday.”

“Amazing chai tea 😍 great customer service and fast.”

“Charlie was my favorite there so much variety of food and drinks we were there for the buffalo barbeque days. We meet the owner loved her and Christian great people. Remember cuz Jeff Martinez family. Thanks for a great time!!”

“I have to say, I was a bit disappointed by the food (but we do come from NY), but the atmosphere was great, and our server was amazing. Lisa served a packed dining room, was the hostess, the bartender, bussed the tables, and assisted in the kitchen. Whatever the WB is paying her, they should double it.”

“Eclectic atmosphere and excellent food. The churrasco with rice, beans, and plantains was delicious. The service was prompt and very warm. Would certainly come back!”
