Side Work Restaurant

We had the deviled eggs, burrata snd peaches, split pea risotto, and the salmon entree. Every bite was impeccable. The staff was delightful and the ambience was stunning. What a charming place to enjoy a beautiful meal. Thank you!

We LOVE Sidework-for appetizers don't miss the ceviche, peach and burrata and hamachi. Main courses- the tomahawk steak, branzino and the risotto with shrimp are all to die for!!! Service was efficient and friendly- love this place!

This has been our second visit to this restaurant and, overall, it has been a good experience. Some of the food items are excellent and some are average. I've been very disappointed in their cocktails. I've tried their listed cocktails and an unlisted old fashioned. The old fashioned was undrinkable, so they need to do something about their beverage service. The ambiance is small but pleasant. Service has been average. Prices are high but not unusual for Telluride.

We had an AMAZING dinner at Side Work! Our faves included the perfectly cooked octopus, wonderful fresh oysters, peaches and burrata, and s'mores brownie! The atmosphere was upscale relaxed, we didn't feel judged or out of place having our kids join (they are 7-10 and love a nice dinner out)! Definitely a wonderful place to treat yourself!

Bronzino was by far the best meal I had in the month I spent in Telluride. Good price performance. Sit outside if you can- inside a little cramped and hot. Great service and pretty view.

We had an extraordinary dinner yesterday evening at Side Work. Sky took great care of us from start to finish and the food was amazing. Our hotel concierge told us this was his favorite in town and know we know why.

Overall our experience was just OK. The appetizers were amazing, but a couple of entrees fell short. The steak and the fish options were very good. The duck was not cooked properly for all three people at our table who ordered it. The duck fat was not rendered as customarily prepared. Our server was not pleasant. Possibly was having a bad day....?? We as a group are easily entertained and tend to be fun and easy going. I'm not planning to return. We had a phenomenal meal at Kazahana earlier in the week. The two experiences couldn't have been any different.

Overall great experience. Greeting was a little lackluster, we were shown our table and left sitting there for quite a while before anyone came to see us. No big deal but could have made a better First impression. Food was very good and we all had very positive experiences trying multiple dishes. (There were 6 of us) Our only real criticism was the wine list. At least 80% of the wines were over $130 with many being $250 to $1000+. Seemed a little weird given the fair prices for the food options... Its not hard to find great wines at a reasonable price but they were few and far between. We would go again for sure, but get the wine list fixed and it would be an even better experience.

We had a lovely unforgettable dining experience. We shared small plates of peaches and burrata, oysters and olives. We also had sweet pea risotto and some deviled eggs. Everything tasted so delicious. Highly recommend!

The food was spectacular! We ordered a bunch of small dishes for the table. The server was very helpful with the menu and created courses, based on what we ordered. I highly recommend Side Work for a nice meal in Telluride. Get the Ceviche! Spectacular!

By the way, make those Epanadas a permanent item on the menu. They were awesome!!

Amazing experience at Sidework this past weekend! All dishes from appetizers to dessert were well executed. The croquetas and duck were my favorite dishes, everyone at the table was pleased.

This is just an amazing restaurant. While not inexpensive it is absolutely worth it. Returned for my son's birthday yesterday. Did not disappoint. The watermelon gazpacho was amazing. Ceviche one of our favorites. I have had the Branzino and the filet. We have yet to have anything we don't love.

Fun restaurant, great menu. The octopus was our favorite of everything we tried—which was a lot. Beware when ordering the specials to clarify the price. We were shocked when the bill came, which was our fault. The duck was the only thing we didn't love; it was a little too rare (this restaurant errs on the side of undercooking everything) and very fatty. Overall this was a delicious family meal, albeit much more expensive than we expected.
