46 Best Dog Friendly Restaurants Minturn

“LOVE THIS PLACE! Food is delicious, staff is awesome and accommodating, and atmosphere is fun. Highly recommend!“

“Highly recommend! Our family traveling with special dietary needs, incredible sincerely caring and welcoming staff led by Tambo went above and beyond to make sure we were well fed and taken care of. Brisket “better than Mission” per my culinary picky tween. Personally loved the short ribs and surprisingly the cole slaw was amazing ! Good Food Good Peeps“

“I’ve purchased your coffee a number of times at a few places in Summit. Yesterday, I needed some caffeine in a drive to Aspen. Remembering that I had seen signs for your café at the Minturn exit off of 70, I stopped in. Great little spot with excellent service. The cortado gave me the energy I needed to get to Aspen, meet with my customer, then go for a 3 mile hike and drive back to Dillon. Somehow I didn’t realize that you had your own teas as well. Lapsang souchong has been a favorite of mine for a long time… used to order it from Republic of Tea. But they stopped selling that a few years ago. I was absolutely thrilled to find that not only is there a place to get it, but even better, I can support a local business. AND, the price is really good. Your lapsang souchong is now something that I will always have in my kitchen. I’m also looking forward to coming back some time when I can sit in the café and have a snack.“

“This place has good food for the price. I had thought there would be more table service, but it ended up being more “order at the counter and listen for your name” type of place. I tend to tip a bit less at these places because they do far less work/service, but the food was still good. We enjoyed our time but would have liked more service for the price.“

“Totally worth the drive to Minturn from Vail. The food and service out rank some of the highest rated places I have dined while staying in Vail (Including remedy at the Four Seasons) This place must do dining location to get excellent local Colorado fare and the local vibe.“

“My husband met the owner on the gondola one day and told us all about First Chair. We made it out for dinner and drinks with the kids a few days later. Chris served us and it was great meeting him as a fellow East coaster! We ordered almost all of the burritos on the menu and were not disappointed! The smash burger was easily my favorite. My dad would order the meatball burrito for every meal, I swear, with how much he enjoyed it as well as my 1 year old eating half of one herself. My son did work on the nachos they were so tasty! When we get back to Vail, we'll be sure to stop in! great staff and food!“

“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!“

“The pizza was amazing as always! I recommend the new appetizer, Garlic Knots - they're so yummy. They're always friendly and fast — the best service in town.“

“Great Detroit Style Pizza! Picnic tables nearby to eat at and there is also a little splash pad nearby if there in the summer.“

“The food is beyond exquisite, the environment , the views, the service, the options, everything amazing 💯.“

“This is a hidden gem for authentic Chinese! Came here for a solo lunch and there was a wide variety of food with all different proteins and great portions! The lamb dish I ordered was amazing! I enjoyed the friendly and attentive staff and casual atmosphere. It’s these kind of hole-in-the-wall finds that you know you’re getting the real deal!“

“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.“

“Food was great overall, and the ambiance was wonderful. The service was prompt and food arrived very quickly. The only thing that slightly disappointed me was the side salad as I was hoping for a more traditional Austrian or a German salad with pickled veggies and vinegarette. All the other food was delicious. We will definitely go back.“

“Excellent breakfast burritos and possibly the best hazelnut latte ever!“

“The quality of their food is not good, it's very bad.“

“Beer is on point and perfect place to chill after a day out on the slopes or hiking.“

“Mountain Standard is a standout in Vail for both lunch and dinner, with service that feels genuinely welcoming, attentive, and well paced. The kitchen clearly takes pride in ingredient quality and execution. The food is fresh, deeply flavorful, and built around combinations that feel creative and intentional, not trendy for the sake of it. It is absolutely a chef driven restaurant.

I started with the octopus appetizer. The octopus itself was cooked perfectly, tender with the right bite, and the overall flavor profile was delicious. The only element that felt unnecessary to me was the black beans. They distracted from the dish rather than adding anything essential, so I removed them. Aside from that, it was excellent, and the avocado slices added a great creamy texture that worked beautifully with the octopus.

For my main, I had the burger, and it was exactly what you want from a place like this: very fresh, high quality ingredients, and meat cooked perfectly. It is the kind of burger that feels elevated without trying too hard.

Overall, Mountain Standard delivers a polished, thoughtful dining experience whether you come for lunch or dinner, with creative food, strong technique, and genuinely great service.“

“We had a great experience at Garfinkel’s, thanks largely to our server, Megan. She was friendly, attentive, and perfectly timed without being overbearing. We sat on the patio such a great choice and the food was outstanding! We enjoyed the chili, hot chocolate, nachos, and an IPA, all of which were excellent. Megan not only gave spot-on menu recommendations but also shared great suggestions for things to do around Vail, which really enhanced our visit. Wonderful service and a perfect place to relax. A must-stop when you’re in Vail!“

“One of our favorite spots to hit whenever we’re in Vail Village. Love sitting outside and having a drink or two. Great food and very friendly staff. Just a wonderful place 😊“

“Atmosphere is like a chalet feel of wood n stone. Food was fine. Sloppy Joe was good. Chicken noodle soup was good. Pricey for the sandwich type food but we are in Vail Colorado. Daughter liked the salad. It was fine , the server was friendly. It was great to try. We were passing through to Utah.“

“Went with Friends. Great food.“

“Our Tampa Bay Ski Club has been having our group dinner there for years. Always excellent food and service!“

“Good service. Decent food.“

“I called Bob’s Place and spoke with the owner, who was incredibly helpful. We planned a dinner for 13 guests, and she accommodated us perfectly—helped select the menu and arranged for delivery. The service was excellent, the food was delicious, and everything went smoothly. Highly recommend! Thank you!“

“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!“

“Wyld is the sort of place you go when you want to splurge on a first class culinary experience and don't mind the hefty price tag. Word to the wise: The shareable meals (e.g. the magnificent duck carnitas) can feed the whole table. We got two shareable meals for 4 people and took home bags of leftovers. The staff is excellent and the ambiance (especially when it's snowing outside) truly special. Don't come if you're going to sweat the bill. Do come if you want to make an unforgettable memory with people you love.“

“Oh my gosh this restaurant is absolutely fantastic!!!! I’m so happy I’ve found it and I will be a regular here for sure! The food is so fresh and the servings are huge..the atmosphere is clean and spacious and the service is outstanding! Yay I found my new favorite restaurant in Avon!!“

“Just Italian delicious!!“

“Great food, beer and service!“

“Our stay over New Year for our kids first ski trip was one of the best resort stays we have ever had. From pre-arrival planning by Dustin the concierge, to all the staff on site, and all the ways Dustin and the rest of the concierge staff assisted us while we were there, this was such an amazing stay. First, our suite was a great setup, with plenty of room for us to spread out. They setup a tent for the girls to play in and gave them some toys. Quite literally every request we had was met and exceeded. We love that there are multiple restaurants at this property. Over a long stay it gives a variety. Our only wish was that the sushi restaurant had more than just sushi. A few other Japanese dishes would make that an option for us. We just aren't sushi fans, and certainly the kids aren't. But we love Buffalos and Wyld. We also had an excellent experience with the photo concierge. We got excellent pictures and it was a fun memory. And what can I say about the spa?! One of the best there is. Great massages, and the grotto is of course amazing. But really all of the relaxing areas of the spa are just that-- relaxing. It was our first time here for a ski trip. We've been at other times of year. We will continue to return to this property. It just keeps getting better!“

“That feller Joel is great, super professional and really knows his stuff. Celenda too was accommodating and so knowledgeable. All around just a great crowd of folks working there to make create the best experience and atmosphere. Those fellas all deserve a raise.“

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

“Delicious pho & best meatballs I’ve ever had“

“Delicious good and upscale vibe.“

“so delicious! from the amazing food to the excellent service, you can't miss at sauce!“

“Cucina is such a hidden gem. I wish more people in Vail new about Cucina! The space is huge, the atmosphere is great, and the staff is incredibly fast and friendly—especially Salvatore and Tyler. Even with our big event, they were quick, patient, kind, and super attentive. Their customer service really stood out, and I’ll definitely be coming back. The burger was delicious, and I can’t wait to try their breakfast menu next time!“

“The French Toast Croissants were delicious.“

“We really love their pizza. They also introduced a desert pizza that was one of the tastiest desserts ever created. Highly recommend it!“

“Everyone was really friendly. The whole place had a good vibe. Nikki was fantastic. I spilled my coffee and she was so sweet about it. She went out of her way to make me feel less embarrassed. The coffee and the croissants were also really good.“

“The food was superb, and the service is kind. I do have to say that their water is some of the most refreshing I’ve ever had (unsure of what or where it comes from lol). Unfortunately, I do live out of state. However anytime I visit Vail, CO this is an absolute stop to grab a bite for me.“

“One of the best places in Vail for live music. Phil is ALWAYS entertaining, the staff is friendly, food is great and the drinks are generous.“

“Had a birthday dinner here with my friend, so we were looking for an upscale place with a vibe! Elway's in Vail Village did not disappoint!
The atmosphere was perfect, chill vibes, nice decorations.
The food was delicious, Tuna tartar for appetizer and Seabass for entree! Food was incredible! The service was great they didn't miss a beat, Sebastian the server was on point with his recommendations and his service! He was super friendly and personality was on point!
Over all the experience was great! We will definitely be back!“

“The Colorado Bass and the Skillet Chicken were so good that we are going back tonight. We may order the same thing! The Old Fashion Cocktail was perfect also. We will ask for Kyle because he was a top-notch server. We love it when the server knows the dishes and pays attention to the proper time to approach the table.“

“Billy Bob’s Brain is the best slice in town. Have been coming here for 20+ years as a Denverite - and honestly, haven’t had better service than Joelle. Thanks for making three nights in a row something worth writing a review about. Also, Tomas - you have a great smile.“

“The girl who served us on Sunday, October 19th, was extremely kind. She spoke to us in my language (Spanish). I'm Mexican, and she was very friendly. She also took care of our table. The pizza was delicious; we enjoyed it very much. Thank you.“
