“By far the best Italian food I have found in the United States!”

“Live music tonight was literally amazing. Jason Gregg is so talented. John the bartender was very warm and inviting and very knowledgeable and efficient. Will come back.”
“Food was great overall, and the ambiance was wonderful. The service was prompt and food arrived very quickly. The only thing that slightly disappointed me was the side salad as I was hoping for a more traditional Austrian or a German salad with pickled veggies and vinegarette. All the other food was delicious. We will definitely go back.”

“Makoto was the dining highlight of our honeymoon. Antonio was our server and was so knowledgeable and made the evening very special for us with multiple enhancements. We had a gorgeous view of the aspen leaves turning. The service and food were exceptional. The entire evening was so memorable, we are already looking forward to our return.”
“My husband met the owner on the gondola one day and told us all about First Chair. We made it out for dinner and drinks with the kids a few days later. Chris served us and it was great meeting him as a fellow East coaster! We ordered almost all of the burritos on the menu and were not disappointed! The smash burger was easily my favorite. My dad would order the meatball burrito for every meal, I swear, with how much he enjoyed it as well as my 1 year old eating half of one herself. My son did work on the nachos they were so tasty! When we get back to Vail, we'll be sure to stop in! great staff and food!”
“On the receipt it said our server was Raul. He was awesome and made an iced espresso that my girlfriend thought was much better than Starbucks. The coffee creation was on the house… even the second one. The breakfast was very good and priced fairly. Because of it all, left a little over 50% tip and happy. Well done.”
“Great place! Very kind, efficient, and friendly staff. Our food had great flavor and the place was super clean. The kids really enjoyed the mochi ice cream! Truly a great experience on our visit!”

“The atmosphere and service were very good! It's a busy place, pretty crowded even on an off-season Tuesday night. The staff were professional and attentive. The food itself didn't stand out. On the good side, the filet and the oysters were delicious and they had a good cocktail menu and some nice wines by the the glass. But both the asparagus and the broccolini were scrawny and tough--poor quality produce not well prepared. I can't be sure, but I think the French fries were frozen. The salmon was undercooked and mushy. In short, I highly recommend La Braserie for drinks and oysters, but probably go someplace else for dinner.”
“Breakfast at Ludwig’s was a great start to every morning during my stay. The atrium is beautiful, especially with the fall colors and views of the creek. The buffet selection was extensive and delicious, and the service was great—all the ladies who looked after me were lovely.
The buffet was included in my stay, which I really appreciated. I’m not sure I would have paid $42 for it otherwise, but I thoroughly enjoyed the food, setting, and warm service.”
“I don’t think there is an institution better than 10th mountain division. Having come here for 10+ years, the drinks are great - the service is great (if you aren’t rude) - and extra kudos to Mark and Andy. Thanks for making every experience at Vail something special.”
“We visited pre-ski season and the atmosphere was perfect. No large crowds and the service was wonderful.”
“The breakfast at Tavernetta is some of the best breakfast food I’ve had from across the whole country including cities like LA & NYC. The veggie skillet is my #1 because it’s the healthiest way to start the day & very filling. #2 favorite is the sausage & polenta dish. This item is my indulgent, flavorful & is like a breakfast & lunch for me. I’ll re order these every time I’m in vail but if I could eat this everyday, year round I would. Delicious & filling portions.”

“A lovely spot, amazing view, and really nice staff!
The food was decent, I really didn’t expect it to be this huge as a starter though; the ice tea lemonade was so delicious and refreshing, and I was really surprised when the waiter refilled it! I mean it wasn’t anywhere on the menu.. Of course loved the gesture and appreciated it!”
“A few places I’ve dined at in the area have nice atmosphere and just middle of the road food. Bart & Yeti’s is not one of those - spectacular food here! I had the best Caesar Chicken Wrap ever. The Pprk Green Chile was incredible, even the house salad that we also ordered was wonderful. Was not expecting to write these kind of statements about the food we ordered but we were blown away with how good it was. Service was impeccable as well … everyone was attentive and it was just a great experience. Was not expecting such a great meal, it definitely caught us off guard. Will definitely go again us our schedule allows.”
“It’s a great little coffee shop, the avocado toast was 4/5, the breakfast burrito was 4+/5 and the parfait was great, although a small portion makes it 3/5.
The prices are high for “reality” but in vail village, it’s perfectly normal to pay $65 for what I listed above.”
“Food was delicious! Got the gluten-free option of a pesto based pizza and was sooo tasty and fresh. Our server was Kayla and she was incredibly attentive and helpful with our questions for the drink menu. Would be a regular if I lived nearby but will for sure be back!!”
“This Starbucks sits inside the hospital lobby.
Don't worry; the map app is guiding you to the right place!
The hospital concierge staff is very friendly and will gladly point you in the right direction.
Audrey and the rest of the Starbucks staff are always warm and happy to recommend a good drink!”

“We stayed at the sonnenalp for a week and had the best experience visiting the King’s Club everyday. The drinks were amazing and everyday we received incredible service, especially from Virag who was extremely attentive and made us feel very welcome. We love it here and cant wait to come back!”
“Check in was at 4pm, not a minute earlier. But once you arrive at your room, it is extremely comfortable and beautifully decorated. We had a nice gas stove and all the amenities needed for laundry and cooking. Our family was super comfortable in a two bedroom apartment and had enough room for all their toys. The location is also the best in vail! you are seconds away from the village and all ice rink. We opted to stay on the non village side because we were worried about noise, however the other side (facing the highway) can be quiet noisy if you are a light sleeper. The pool/gym area was also a nice touch, with updated workout machines and bikes. We did have a little mishap with the concierge and our babysitter not showing up so we missed an excursion. The concierge desk was having trouble solving it, but the manager came in and handled it all swiftly to help make this feel like a five star vacation. We will be returning. xThank you!”
“We had lunch at Wildwood Smokehouse. It's located at the top of the Wildwood lift at Vail. We each had a sandwich, shredded chicken, brisket, and pulled pork, and weall had onion rings for our side. They were all good. The shredded chicken had great smoky flavor. On the table, there are 3 BBQ sauces, OG, spicy and honey mustard.”
“My wife and I had a great experience here, even during a busy weekend with Oktoberfest and the Farmers Market happening simultaneously. Our server, Alvin, provided excellent service and offered helpful menu recommendations. The ribs were incredibly tender, the portions were generous, and we thoroughly enjoyed our meals. We’ll definitely be back!”
“The Fitz is a busy patio whenever there are shows at the Amp and this was the case on this night we went. They should have a better system worked out for the bar. We waited for over 10 to 15 minutes for our drinks. The waitress was super busy. Maybe have some more help on hand on busy nights?”
“Had a lovely valentines dinner with my wife, great food, atmosphere and people. Would definitely recommend visiting”
“Great location by the Blake hotel. During the pandemic, plenty of seating outside on the deck overlooking Taos ski lift. Friendly staff. Good menu choices. Awesome burger!”

“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.”
“Nicest, most personable Starbucks staff I’ve ever met. Jada and Chloe were very patient with a complex order and held a lovely conversation when the POS was glitching, turning a situation which would’ve been otherwise unpleasant into a education time about the best sandwich on the menu (the impossible!). Coffee was on point and super yummy!”
“Andrea was very kind and helpful today at Starbucks in City Market Vail. This is a great place to rest and enjoy a delicious coffee beverage and a snack after skiing or groceryshopping. It's very conveniently located in City Market, Vail on the North Frontage Rd.”
“Pazzo’s Pizza in Vail is hands down the best spot for pizza around. Dan Renner and the crew make every visit feel like you’re part of the family. Their service is top-notch—always friendly, timely, and welcoming. The pizza? Absolutely unbeatable, with fresh ingredients and that perfect balance of flavor and crust. Whether you’re grabbing a bite after a day on the slopes or ordering in, they never disappoint. If you want great food and a place that treats you right, Pazzo’s is the place to go!”
“Such a great place- I love it here. Had the peri-peri chicken last night and it was delicious. Service is always excellent and the food is consistently great. Love Mountain Standard.”

“Beer is on point and perfect place to chill after a day out on the slopes or hiking.”

“Fish and chips were spot on, crispy perfection! Sadly I can't get fish & chips like that anywhere else. The duck nachos were tasty and loaded with layers not just dumped on top. Erin our server was fun and polite too. I can't wait to get back up there!”
“Left Bank was Vail's first iconic restaurant when my family visited Vail every year six decades ago. I haven't been back in a long time (back when Left Bank was cash only!). The classic French food and service are still absolutely top notch!”

“We celebrated my husband's birthday at Elway's and it was fantastic! He got the New York strip steak. It was cooked perfectly and he ate every single bite! He also enjoyed the mashed potatoes. I had the house salad which was simply delicious. I also had the coconut shrimp. There were 3 huge shrimp with a tasty slaw which included cashews. They brought my husband a slice if dark chocolate cake for his birthday. It was a memorable meal!”

“Many people booked outside seating as did we and then the rain started and everyone requested inside. The wait staff, hostess and every other employee hustled to get everyone seated in a short time. They did an amazing job. Food was tasty, limited selection but solid on flavor. Our server was wonderful. Tavern on the Square is always on our list for dining during our annual summer visits.”
