Italian Restaurants near Telluride

“We visited Telluride in January. Brown Dog is not ordinary pizza. It was extraordinary-I’m completely ruined for pizza anywhere else! We’ve talked about this place countless times since our visit 8.5 months ago. The service was great (I believe our waitress was named Becca) and out of allll the great places we visited in Telluride and Mountain Village, this was the place we’re still talking about. Highly, highly recommend! I don’t know if I’ll ever get back to Telluride, but if I do, you’ll find me at Brown Dog Pizza!“

“What an excellent restaurant! The staff was very friendly and accommodating. The food was amazing as well as the venue of Wines. Also the owners go above and beyond to make sure your dining experience was lovely Oh… and Donna the beautiful accordion Player was fabulous! I’ll be back?“

“As a lifelong pizza aficionado, let me start this review by saying the Elk make outstanding pies, not to mention all of their assorted sweet treats. But the real reason I have to give all of my fellow Google travelers my honest feedback is because of the level of friendly service I receive each and every time I visit, especially from David, Alex, and the lovely young lady whose name I will need to learn how to spell correctly before my next review. Ignore the naysayers, the Elk is a Crazy great spot!“

“We are visiting for the TFF and staying in the plaza. We arrived for dinner on Sunday (8/31) around 6:15 and seated immediately. While it seemed rushed at first we understood there was only staff seating and serving. We had a light Oder of a pizza and antipasti…both of which were very good. Yes, there were minor faux pas but overall the staff did a really good job. I understand quality staff is hard to find…. But the few moving and grooving tonight did a GREAT job and the food was great and we had a wonderful experience…and I hope the managers see this and commend the staff this evening.“

“Our last night in Telluride we stopped in here for dinner. It was amazing. We started with the foccacia, delicious. My husband got the special which was veal ravioli with a cream sauce, it was absolutely amazing. I had the lasagna, the portion was huge.“
