What a fantastic place! The ambiance is pure Telluride, the service was fantastic, and our waiter helped us decide on the most delicious bison steak with roasted root vegetables. So delicious I want to try and recreate that dish when I get back east. Highly recommend the experience.
Opentable Diner
We've have come here about 4 times a year for the past 3 years. Last night felt like we were on an episode of “punked” in comparison to what we've experienced in all previous visits. The biggest change which came as a shock given the price of each plate is they no longer have the roasted vegetables with the tray of meat, instead they bring a tiny cast iron pan of dried roasted vegetables and another of picked vegetables. Not even enough for 2 people. The large roasted carrots and sweet potatoes and onions have been nixed by the new chef. New chef also has less than eye for details as our steaks Came out very dry. Another very noticeable change is the less attentive wait staff (having to walk up to the bar to ask for more water because we were drinking water for a long time while we waited 50 mins for our food to arrive). We figured out by the end of our time there why it was dead as we were experiencing the situation. It's too bad as we loved this place but when you're charging that much for plates and taking 50 mins to bring them in a nearly dead restaurant with 4 waitstaff, 2 hostess and a bartender, it seems that the place is headed down hill. Can't wait to see what Four Seasons brings to the area.

The ambiance at the Madeline is chic modern and natural, and the service is stellar. However, for a 5 star hotel's main restaurant, the food was lacking in variety and preparation. I am pescatarian and my partner is vegetarian. There were no fish entrees and only one vegetarian entree. We ordered several appetizers and the Roasted Cauliflower entree which was served in Paella. The Cauliflower was charred on the outside but raw on the inside and the Paella was cold. We did enjoy several appetizers but had to send one back because they served it with potato chips (also odd for a fancy hotel restaurant). Overall we had a nice night because the service was so good, but I would not recommend this restaurant for pescatarians or vegetarians.

Wonderful experience. The four of us shared the Chateaubriand and several appetizers. Everything was delicious. Our server Boon was attentive and quick. We will definitely be going back.

So disappointed. I have to think this was a very off night. Not one table in whole room occupied. We were seated beside a wall next to the solo guitar live music who was busy setting up as we were about to enjoy a nice cocktail and conversation. Then a large “been drinking all day” group showed up and took over the sofa by the fireplace. This meant the pleasant atmosphere we were hoping to enjoy was over. Menu was very $$$&&. $100 loaded baked potato with truffle oil. 9 piece Charcuterie board $95 and truly almost nothing on the menu except a 2 lb chicken for under $100. this is a restaurant in a hotel so it has that atmosphere. Management did comp our drinks and we left.
This is our 2nd year dining at Timber Room and we have been very impressed both times. The staff were all warm and on point (esp our waiter Boone), service was excellent, and the roast chicken with vegetable sides divine!
Our server was informative and lovely. Service was a little slow, though. The hummus and baba ganoosh were really excellent, small portions - but delicious and reasonably priced. Our Cosmo and White Russian had a punch and were perfect! Some of the other prices were so high, they were laughable - like the $100 and $125 baked potatoes. That was memorable.

Amazing ambience. Wait staff was wonderful. Cocktails were delicious. Food was outstanding. Would recommend this as one of the best restaurants on mountain village side of Telluride.

Beautiful spot, but very slow service...took 10 min to get a drink (hello Bar Rescue). The food was good but portions are greatly reduced from our last visit 2 years ago (which was amazing all around, but not this time). The elk was dry (cooked medium). All food was tasty (save elk, chicken was amazing) but prices are a bit crazy given small portion size. Got home after spending $1,000 for 8 people and was still hungry!! Better places in Telluride and MV to eat. Would go for a drink to enjoy ambience, but would skip dinner.

I would agree with the other reviews that the food quality/taste this year compared to last year has diminished - the food is simply just bland now. We use to come here a lot and rave about the baked chicken with the roasted vegetables because it was amazing, now the roasted chicken is blah. The elk tar tar use to be a standout dish, now it's just bland and missing flavor. The deviled eggs use to be amazing now they are just hard rubber. The fried rabbit is gone, etc. The drinks on the drink menu are not great anymore either and I had one of the worst drinks I've had last night - some gin cocktail.
Service was lacking, they seemed short staffed. Not understanding why a baked potato costs 100+$? They have a build your own charcuterie board option which was a little overwhelming with the choices. Food was just ok, drinks were nothing to rave about either.
