18 Best American Restaurants near Mountain Village

“You'd be doing yourself a disservice if you didn't stop here! I had the carnitas burrito (the meat is so juicy and tender!) and my husband had the San Juan both times we went. We ate this early afternoon and would be full for the rest of the day!“

“Yummy food and thank you so much for being open!!!“

“Great experience at The National. The service and ambiance is very good. The food exceptional. The only thing that was missing, was a cherry in my Old Fashion. But that was quickly corrected by our waiter. Highly recommend for a memorable dining experience that is shoulders above the usual Telluride fare.“

“The service was excellent, but the food…hot and cold (NO pun intended). My black bean soup was excellent, and so was the salmon. In fact, the salmon was one of the best I’ve ever had. The Crispy Shrimp & Calamari, shared at the table, wasn’t really crispy at all. It had a tiny bit of sauce drizzled over it, but most pieces didn’t get touched by it, so you had to either ask for a side of dipping sauce (which we didn’t) or eat it plain. Also, there were hardly any shrimp in with the calamari. My Caesar Salad was awful. Before ordering, I confirmed that the dressing was made in house, but it was a tasteless, bland, cream colored, nondescript thin liquid, without a hint of garlic. I didn’t complain, but I tried my only other option of adding plenty of salt and pepper, which just didn’t help. We didn’t order dessert, so I can’t comment on that element. Overall, I think Cosmo’s is a very fine restaurant, but maybe we just didn’t choose well. I would certainly go back, but I would never order the Caesar again, and I would carefully discuss the calamari with the server before committing to it.“

“Wait staff was great…thank you Julia! We ordered all shareables for 3 of us. Crispy brussels, kushiyaki prawns, wagyu tartare, spicy cauliflower and lamb lollipops. Julia served each item with plenty of time in between so we could enjoy and savor the experience. Thank you and we’ll be back! Julie and Robin Marsh and Lynsey Marsh Bonebrake“

“We were trying to find a more affordable option that allows dogs while visiting Telluride. We came across this cute strip just outside of town that also has a brewery that both share the same outside patio space. We got a burger, sandwich, and fries to share. Everything was delicious and had really good flavors.“

“Lots of options for vegans (which is very welcome in this town!) but go early in the lunch hour as they run out. Limited hours for lunch only and I finally made it in this time. Had the detox salad and roasted root veggies that were tasty. Will be back!“

“We had the best experience tonight at Brown Dog Pizza! Excellent food and service. Barrett was very attentive and just as sweet as he could be!! Definitely will be back!“

“In a town of mediocre food & service this was a hidden gem. Cosy restaurant in The Hotel Telluride. Our party of 6 ate here 4 times & all were excellent. Guiseppe was a great host & always managed to find us a table when we arrived without a reservation. Service was quick & he was friendly & attentive. The special of the petit fillet with mash potatoes & asparagus plus a glass of wine for $26 was exceptional value. Dessert was very good as well. They even dropped us home afterwards in their hotel courtesy vehicle. Nice atmosphere in hotel lobby for a pre or after dinner drink in front of the fire. 1 night they had a live guitarist which was very nice. Can't fault the food or service. Would definitely eat here again“

“The view from Allred’s is amazing! The food was excellent! The service was excellent! Worth the money to go for the experience!“

“Giant sandwiches & got my skis waxed.“

“Fantastic long weekend at Mountain Lodge Telluride. Perfect accommodations, friendly staff, and views out of this world! Steps away from world class skiing and a gondola ride away from some of the best restaurants and unique shopping! 10/10!“

“Laid back spot in Telluride. Fun atmosphere. A lot of kids, so if you are looking for "adult" this isn't it. But Charlie (one of the owners) tells a great story and works the room, and all the deserts and hand made by Floradora, so it is a local treat.“

“Anna was fantastic and the food was DELICIOUS! Caesar salad has little micro, flash-fried garlic crisps. Blue cheese burger was the best I've ever had; big chunks of super nice blue cheese with a perfectly buttered and grilled bun and juicy mushrooms. Truffle fries were perfect. Freaking great. Yum yum yum.“

“Su menú es excelente Ben a probar su nuevo menú es muy Rico“

“Good food, casual atmosphere. Bartender was so nice. Football on TV. Snowing outside. Lots of fun!“

“Fast n nice Just whipped in for bread puddin …was really good“

“Had a great experience dining early evening in the off season for a date night dinner. Seated outdoors at a low fire pit. Great ambiance. Very knowledgeable and attentive staff. Excellent food- tried a couple salads, elk chili, truffle flatbread, and the warm apple crisp with vanilla ice cream. Highly recommend“
