“THIS PLACE WAS INCREDIBLE. We went in for our friend’s bachelorette trip dinner and it was so much fun. We all couldn’t get over how aesthetic it was but also the service was AMAZING. Everyone was so kind and hosted so well, especially the guy that mainly took care of us, he went out of his way to take pics of us and make sure we were well taken care of!! The food was also insane (especially the steak) so thank you chef!! 100/10 experience and EVERYONE needs to go there now!“

“Probably the best pasta I’ve ever had. My only complaint was that the tables are quite close to one another, but that aside, everything was wonderful. My partner got the half chicken, and that too was amazing. Reasonable (Telluride) prices as well.“

“We had a fantastic experience, we shared the brisket app, both had rice bowls - the pork and the buttermilk chicken. I’m gluten free and it’s been hard to find options during our visit but they delivered tonight. Most everything can be made gluten free. I had the old oaxacan and my spouse had sunset and they were fantastic. If you are gluten free or love contemporary Japanese faire, try this out.“

The West End Bistro at The Hotel Telluride American • $$
199 Cornet St, Telluride

“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“

“We landed at Timber Room for my birthday after a last-minute change of plans, and what a great surprise it turned out to be. The place was packed and buzzing, but the concierge and manager still went above and beyond to accommodate our party of 9, turning on the patio heaters and making sure we were comfortable while they worked their magic to get us seated.

Our servers were incredible and truly made my birthday feel special. Add excellent food and a great atmosphere, and it made for a memorable night. Hospitality like that doesn’t go unnoticed.“
