“INSPIRED cocktails! Great food and an incredible staff who works hard to build a personal connection. This has become our most frequented hang in Vail - super grateful especially for Hal, Chadwick, Bence, and Lori for being standout and going above and beyond in their kindness and cocktail expertise!! Get a Don Alejandro while you’re here - you won’t be disappointed.“

“Steven Teaver the owner was awesome! He opened up a little early to allow us Oregonians to check out Bad Kitty Lounge! Made us feel like long time friends! The suspended mirrored ski boot was a spectacular touch. Were there 08/23/21. Going through some of our Colorado vacation pics and had to comment on this place.“

“Atmosphere is like a chalet feel of wood n stone. Food was fine. Sloppy Joe was good. Chicken noodle soup was good. Pricey for the sandwich type food but we are in Vail Colorado. Daughter liked the salad. It was fine , the server was friendly. It was great to try. We were passing through to Utah.“

“Love this place. Fav bar in vail“

“The bbq pizza was the best pizza I have ever had. The waiter was a little under par. He just wasn't as attentive to us as he was others. We ordered 2 beers he only brought one. And when we said we wanted 2. He had a attitude. But then apologized right before he brought the bill.“

“I was pretty disappointed this season with the limited options this time. The food is served apparently only some days.. then there's no wait staff I guess anymore, and as much as this place suppose to be bumpin' for any apres ski time they decide to close at 4pm or so.. blew my mind.. absolutely the most prime real estate .. the way its ran I guarantee they're hitting less than 50% of its potential revenue! [It's a very obvious observation] no entertainment just self order line. Please be better.. make Vail resorts $$ so ppl don't need to pay $300 day for skiing“

“Outstanding service from the time we arrived and awesome selection of fine foods and wines. Loved every minute of it!“

“Cucina is such a hidden gem. I wish more people in Vail new about Cucina! The space is huge, the atmosphere is great, and the staff is incredibly fast and friendly—especially Salvatore and Tyler. Even with our big event, they were quick, patient, kind, and super attentive. Their customer service really stood out, and I’ll definitely be coming back. The burger was delicious, and I can’t wait to try their breakfast menu next time!“

“We stopped by the Fitz Bar + Bites after the concert at the amphitheater. They (Vail) were also hosting the Jazz Festival so they had an exceptional jazz improv going on. We snacked on cheese bites and other munchies while enjoyed the outstanding music. What a phenomenal weekend of talent, music and food.“

“Best Hickory Burger Ever!!! We were in town for a wedding & stopped in for a quick bite. The staff was super friendly & made us feel right at home! Can’t wait to fly back for another burger!“

“Highly recommend Chasing Rabbits when in Vail. Very hip place with creative cuisine and a great wine program. I had Rabbit Bolognese and it was outstanding. Our server was excellent. Can't wait to go back!“

“We grabbed a window seat at Mountain Standard and it was the perfect spot to take in the snowy afternoon. After a long flight, the warm pimento cheese appetizer paired with a drink hit the spot. Comforting and exactly what we needed. We come back every time we're in Vail, and it never disappoints. Great atmosphere, great food, and a perfect way to settle into the mountains. Highly recommend.“

“Great experience!!! From the food, service and ambience A++++“

“Mike and Wade are amazing and they have created a special place. You should drop by, say hi, and have them make you something special even if you are just a beer drinker. You will not regret it. And for those who do drink spirits, you will not be disappointed.“
