Over recent years and under new ownership, Maison La Belle Vie gets better and better via an expanded menu, additional hours, a variety of first-rate wines and reliable, welcoming service. From crudités and charcuterie platters to burgers, sandwiches, salads and fish-night dinners, the menu is diverse and the food is delicious. Sample a wine flight then choose your favorite to go with your meal. The gourmet desserts are fabulous if you save room. The patio setting offers scenic views or dine inside if the weather isn’t cooperating. Five minutes off I-70 in the vineyard. Enjoy!

Went out for a Sunday fun day and started at Amy's place. Tara was the only worker and her service was better than some full restaurants.She was friendly andknowledgeable about the wine and food. We had an amazing time and relaxing in their beautiful courtyard. Definitely a go to spot.

What a lovely Valentine’s dinner evening! We went in, gave our name and there was no reservation for us!! I realized that I never actually made the reservation. I was very willing to leave quietly but we weren’t allowed to. Even though they were already full, they sat my husband and I at the bar - creating a space for us. We were treated so wonderfully. I wish I could remember the lady’s name who treated us so well. The food was superb and the wine with each course matched perfectly. Perfect evening! I have already made a reservation for next month. I have a feeling we will be visiting monthly!

Always a treat. Great staff and owners.

Wine club is misleading (handling charges added) even if you pick up your order. When we asked to have those charges removed & opted out after three pickups we got charged $75.00. BEWARE. The owners give the impression they are not looking for long term customers. The majority of their staff are good people.When you make a reservation you are charged $5.00.We have been going here for 8 years - good wine made by Cory. We plan to buy his wine label Evolve. Been to lots of burger nights , brunches & some winter dinners series mostly when John owned the winery. Sure miss John ? he knew how to treat people.

My daughter's wedding and reception were held at Amy's Courtyard just a few short weeks ago. The setting was beautiful and Nick and Holly delivered on every single thing they promised! They were very patient and answered every single question this long distance mom had. The food was scrumptious. They happily accommodated the guests who had dietary restrictions. Their staff was helpful and just plain fun!! I could not have asked for more!! I highly recommend Amy's Courtyard!
We had a lovely wine tasting and lunch. The service was excellent and the food was delicious. We enjoyed the wine, as well. A fun variety of things to taste! The seating area was nice, and the casual atmosphere was really relaxed. Loved it, would go again!

Get married at Maison/Amy’s Courtyard! Booking Amy’s Courtyard was the best decision we made for our wedding. Using them for catering was the next best decision.Nic and Holly were a delight to work with from our initial meeting to our grand exit. All the staff made the reception fun and ensured our guests were well taken care of. During planning, Holly was always prompt in her response. Amy’s/Maison did their best to accommodate our requests. They even masterfully managed my southern mother who has directed numerous weddings. The day of our wedding exceeded our expectations. The beauty of the space, the food, the drink, and the staff made our wedding day unforgettable. At every point, from planning to execution Amy’s was world class. You want to work with Amy’s Courtyard. Words can’t express how pleased we were with this venue and caterer before and after our “I do.”

I have never left a negative review, because I try to give grace to everyone in the service industry. I could have been at this place on an off night, but I have to say, it was the worst experience I’ve ever had. I, a single woman, Had a reservation for one (last minute getaway to wine country) and when I got there the woman who greeted me (she seemed to be doing both hosting and serving), said, “oh. It’s just you? Ummmmmm ok. Let’s seat you over here.” She didn’t even ask me my name or for any info pertaining to my reservation. I was just sat at a bench off to the side. When I was seated, I was given a wine menu. I had to look on the website for food options as the women did not give me a food menu. I ordered. The food was delicious (seriously, I’m mad because the food was amazing but the service completely ruined my experience). The woman was catering to all the couples around me. Food menus, wine, dessert. Not once did she ask if I wanted another glass or if I was interested in dessert. She just dropped the bill off with me after I received my food. The couples around me were treated with the utmost respect, “would you care for another glass? Would you like to look at our dessert menu? Our dessert is out of this world!” Train your staff to do better. Your food and wine are amazing, but your staff will drive away customers real quickly. I’ve worked in the service industry and the service here is below subpar (at least on the day I was here). I felt like she assumed I wouldn’t be spending money because I was alone and I look younger than my age. I actually really enjoy spending money on good food and I tip very well because I used to be a server and I know what it can be like. The front of the house can make or break a customer’s experience. Please train your staff accordingly. I gave one star because the ambiance is beautiful and your kitchen staff clearly know what they’re doing.

A Captivating Escape to Maison La Belle Vie Winery: A Culinary Delight!Nestled in the picturesque beauty of Palisades, Colorado, Maison La Belle Vie Winery is an absolute gem that captures the essence of a true wine lover's paradise. From the moment I set foot on the property, I was enchanted by the stunning vineyards, the warm hospitality, and the incredible culinary experiences that awaited me.The winery's ambiance is nothing short of magical. The sprawling vineyards, with their neatly arranged rows of lush green vines, create a serene and romantic atmosphere. The staff at Maison La Belle Vie were exceptionally welcoming and knowledgeable, eager to share their passion for wine and provide a truly unforgettable experience.But let me tell you about the highlight of my visit—the baked caprese. This culinary masterpiece is a true testament to the skill and creativity of the winery's culinary team. The flavors of the traditional Italian caprese salad were elevated to new heights with their unique twist. The combination of juicy and ripe tomatoes, creamy mozzarella, aromatic basil, and a drizzle of balsamic reduction, all baked to perfection, created a burst of flavors that danced on my palate. It was a symphony of textures and tastes that left me craving for more.The baked caprese was just one of the many culinary delights that Maison La Belle Vie had to offer. Their menu showcased a range of thoughtfully crafted dishes, each carefully paired with their exquisite wines. Whether it was the delicate seafood dishes or the succulent grilled meats, every bite was a revelation, perfectly complemented by their exceptional wine selection.Speaking of wines, Maison La Belle Vie boasts an impressive variety of wines, each crafted with precision and dedication. From crisp whites to bold reds, their wines cater to a range of preferences, and the knowledgeable staff was more than happy to guide me through the tasting experience. The quality and complexity of their wines were truly remarkable, showcasing the winery's commitment to excellence.Beyond the culinary and wine experiences, Maison La Belle Vie also offers breathtaking views of the surrounding vineyards and the stunning Palisades landscape. The winery's outdoor seating area, with its cozy and inviting atmosphere, provided the perfect backdrop to enjoy a glass of wine while basking in the natural beauty that surrounded me.To sum it up, Maison La Belle Vie Winery deserves every accolade it receives. From the moment I arrived until the moment I reluctantly left, I was immersed in a world of wine, gastronomy, and unmatched beauty. The baked caprese, in particular, was a culinary revelation that will forever remain etched in my memory. If you're looking for a truly exceptional wine and dining experience, a visit to Maison La Belle Vie Winery is an absolute must.

I absolutely love Maison La Belle Vie! I have been a tour guide for over seven years. I take guests from all over the world here and they have all had an amazing experience. I love eating lunch in the courtyard. I love our waitresses and wonderful staff. I am impressed with the owners. I have always had great service and the most amazing wines. If you appreciate quality wine made from a winemaker who has two viticulture license that has been making wine for decades, then you will enjoy premium red wine, if not, may I suggest you go to the liquor store and buy some Boonesfarm or some TJ Swan ! They have a true pastry chef on hand with elegant tiramisu and some wonderful macaroons. If you can’t afford wonderful food and relaxing while you’re dining here, may I suggest you go to Taco Bell or McDonald’s. This place is one of my top three places to go while visiting in Palisade if you enjoy , red wine and delicious food.! I absolutely cannot wait to return here tomorrow for Mother’s Day to treat myself to a fabulous lunch and wine. See you guys tomorrow and the day after that and the day after that and next week and the week after that love you to the moon and back I will always support Maison La Belle Vie.
