The 49 best bars and drinks in Telluride

Anyone who gives less than 5 stars are out of their minds. This place is great. The roof top is a great place for a mid-day beer. Their choice of music is perfect. I'm visiting from Las Vegas and spent the day doing "Telluride" things, and this was a perfect spot to just relax and have a great beer before heading back to campsite.

Great place to start the evenings. Rooftop was nice. Not too busy for a Sunday. Lots of people brining in pizza from Browndog next door! Views are perfect too.

Pretty standard saloon experience but our beers were cold!

Eric was fantastic—his drinks were spot on. Not sure where the bad reviews came from, because this bar is an easy 5/5. Even coming from downtown Chicago with all the ‘upscale vibes,’ I’d choose this place every time.

Horrible customer service. My mom is new to drinking beer so learning what she likes. She asked which draft was the lightest tasting. Bartender was extremely rude/inconvenienced that he had to give information on the beers they offer. I then asked if she could sample one and he said we were stealing his money as he had to pay for the beer we tasted. I could have been understanding had he not already accosted my mom for simply asking which draft beers were lighter. I walked out, would not give that man a damn penny. Not surprised to see they are rated below a 4.0 on here and most negative reviews are the same thing, horrible staff. It’s too bad as this used to be a go to. The guy was acting like he owns the place which if he does, that’s even worse to me. Pack up and move to a secluded area as you shouldn’t be interacting with people for any reason. If he’s not the owner, then he’s definitely trying to sabotage this business.

Beware – I would never step foot in Last Dollar Saloon again. Unfortunately, my friends and I had an incredibly disappointing experience at this bar. We were enjoying the rooftop with drinks in hand, waiting for two more friends to join us, when a man—either the bartender or owner—approached us in an extremely rude and aggressive manner. He demanded that we either buy more drinks or leave, claiming others were waiting for rooftop seating. In reality, every one of us had already purchased drinks, and there was no line or visible group waiting for seats upstairs. The behavior was shocking, especially in a town like Telluride, which is usually known for its laid-back, friendly vibe—typical of most ski towns. Even nearby customers expressed their disbelief at how we were treated. I’m not sure if this was a situation of racism or a man who has serious anger issues. I truly hope the ownership reevaluates how they treat their patrons, or that new management steps in to create a more welcoming environment. As it stands, I would not recommend this establishment to anyone.

We can in for a drink and to watch NBA finals game. Bartenders were completely non responsive. Had to order our own drinks at bar and then bring them to table ourselves with our elderly companions. Despite the fact that the stuffy bartenders were bringing water and drinks to tables all around us. Never asked if we needed anything or if our drinks were ok. Wouldn’t go again, would hit up the neighboring Brown Dog Pizza who had much friendlier staff. Horrible service. And as a person who had worked in service industry I can tell you that these people need to get into action. Every friendly hello and table service is several more dollars in your pocket.

We’ve been twice this trip and the food was okay both times. He liked his Caesar - although the croutons weren’t anything to write home about. My wings were also okay. I knew they’d be coming out breaded, and they were. Fairly heavily. The meatloaf, mashed, asparagus, and carrots on a subsequent night started out pretty good, but after a few bites, the tomato-based sauce became a bit overbearing. (We both thought it was supposed to have had a mushroom/brown sauce v tomato-based 🤷🏻‍♀️). Yet the mashed and other veggies were well-prepared and tasty. Service wasn’t overly-impressive. Nice. But as experienced in several establishments, wait-staff doesn’t seem to be geared-up and on their game. And I get it. It’s easy and fun to hustle to meet the demands of a busy restaurant, but when there’s a lull, it’s just as easy to become distracted with co-workers while losing track of time/table visits resulting in poor service.

Excellent choice—five stars without hesitation. I ordered the Tomboy Burger, cooked perfectly to medium just as I requested, along with the seasoned fries. The fries were exactly what you hope for: a crispy exterior with a soft, pillowy inside. Our server struck the right balance—attentive without being overbearing. Service made the experience smooth and enjoyable. We chose to sit on the outdoor patio since the weather was beautiful, and it didn’t disappoint. The view of the changing leaves made for a great backdrop to the meal. Yes, the food is a touch on the pricier side, but that’s to be expected in a vacation town. The portions were generous and felt well worth it. Highly recommend Tomboy Tavern if you’re in the area.

My wife and I dined at Tomboy in Telluride tonight, and I must say, it was an exceptional experience. I ordered a hamburger cooked medium-rare, and it was perfect—juicy and delicious, exactly as I requested. The fries that accompanied it were outstanding, crispy and flavorful. My wife chose the kale salad with portobello mushrooms, and she thoroughly enjoyed it; the combination of ingredients was delightful and fresh. A special shout-out to our server, Sullenny, who was gracious and attentive throughout our meal, ensuring we had everything we needed. Overall, Tomboy exceeded our expectations with its fantastic food and excellent service. We can't wait to return!

Location is perfect. Sun shining on your face after some morning runs, the burger and bloody is a great combination, or maybe wings and champagne? The service is spot on and the food comes out quickly even when busy.

Great Location, Decent Food, Inconsistent Service Tomboy Tavern has a lot going for it—prime location at the base of the mountain, a fun après-ski vibe, and a solid drink menu. It’s definitely one of the more lively spots in Mountain Village, and on a sunny day, the patio is hard to beat. That said, our experience was a bit mixed. The food was okay—not bad, but not particularly memorable for the price point. The burgers and fries were decent, but some dishes felt like they came out rushed or under-seasoned. For a place that looks upscale from the outside, we expected a bit more consistency in the kitchen. The bigger issue was the service. While our server was friendly, things were slow and a bit disorganized. We had long waits for drinks and the check, even though it didn’t seem overwhelmingly busy at the time. It felt like the staff was stretched thin or not fully tuned in. All in all, Tomboy Tavern is worth stopping by for a drink or a casual meal with friends, especially if you want to sit outside and soak in the views. Just go in with moderate expectations and a bit of patience. 3 stars for the atmosphere and location, with room to improve on food and service.

We loved this place so much we came back 3 times in one trip! The truffle fries are perfect, the huckleberry mule is the best mule I’ve ever had, and the boozy hot chocolate was amazing. I also highly recommend the chili and the bratwurst. I will 100% be back

Our bartender Staci was awesome! Super friendly and talkative, those are hard to come by now. Made a killer bloody as well! Definitely come sit a his bar!

I get it. There are other places to get a drink and something to eat in Telluride. But when we’re in town, this is our go to. Consistently good food - sandwiches, salads, and pizza - there’s nothing bad on the menu. There’s outdoor seating when the weather cooperates, ample table seating, and the bar is a great place to watch sports on one of the seven tvs. The prices are reasonable and the draft beer selection is good. I guess the main reason we keep coming back is the service. These folks work so darn hard! This joint is jumping on festival weekends. But they never lose their friendly composure. We should try other places, but we’re back for our third visit to Brown Dog this weekend. Keep up the great work!

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ Brown Dog Pizza really knows how to make great pizza! The taste was amazing, and the service was excellent. Travis was our server, and he did an amazing job — very attentive and friendly. The atmosphere is great — a lively bar area for social people, cozy booths for private groups, and a nice balcony, perfect for couples. Definitely an awesome place to eat in Telluride!

We struggled with places being closed during the off season, so we ended up coming here twice while in Telluride. Between our visits, my husband and I shared: - Chester's Tail Wagger, Classic Pizza (seasonal) - Little Rose, Detroit Style Pizza - Gold Hill, Detroit Style Pizza - Southwestern BBQ Chicken, Detroit Style Pizza We really enjoyed everything we had here. The seasonal pizza was definitely my favorite followed by the Little Rose. They have a really good Detroit style crust. I tried my mom's Gold Hill on a classic crust and actually thought that pizza was better on the classic crust instead of the Detroit. I wish the BBQ pizza had BBQ sauce as the base instead of red sauce with just a drizzle of BBQ. The red sauce was a bit weird to me on a BBQ pizza, but it was still good. I just recently discovered they also have locations in Denver, but it's called Blue Pan Pizza so maybe I'll be back sooner than I thought!

Our first time in Telluride and did my research about must try restaurants. Brown Dog Pizza did not disappoint! Everything we ordered was phenomenal. We had spinch artichoke dip, garlic knots , wings (garlic parmesan & barbeque) and of course, their famous Detroit Style Pizza! We ordered half/half of Brooklyn Bridge & 313. It was sooo good. Generous toppings & perfect crust! Great service from Brock too!

We came in late one evening after the kitchen was closed, but the bartender got us delicious slices, so good that we came back the next day. I’m still thinking about the Detroit style pizza & wish I lived within driving distance. The Greek salad was yummy, too. The Detroit style was one of the best pizzas I’ve ever had & I LOVE pizza! Excellent, friendly service!

Brown Dog Pizza is great. Classic ski town pizza shop. Pizza is delicious. We got a salad to start with some homemade balsamic dressing that was really good. Our server made us feel welcome and was quick to bring our drinks and food. We did have to wait about 30 minutes for a table but we sat and had a drink next door.

The food is amazing. We drive all the way from Farmington, NM to eat here at least 2-4 times a year. The Bruschetta is delicious. The salad was fresh, crispy and tasty. The pizza's are absolutely perfect. We love coming here and the staff is amazing. Our waiter was friendly and courteous. We definitely will keep coming again and again. Thank you Brown Dog Pizza for a memorable lunch.

The bartender was really nice! I had a flight at the line standalone brewery in Telluride, but I only liked 1 of the 4 beers. 2 were fine, and 1 I didn’t care for. The place was tiny too. I was pleased they had a little fended outdoor area which helped. I’m glad I went but I probably wouldn’t go back

Would love to give this place a better review than I am. Customer service was not there - When I said “what’s a good lager” she said the Telluride Pilsner is a good one 🤷‍♀️ - (note: 3 lagers on the board) I feel if I were a male in this location I would have had great service. I’m a sucker for merch… she offered nothing. When I inquired on the Telliride beers to take with me. All she said was the “prices vary”- SELL ME SOMETHING- Perhaps it’s because it’s a revolving door of people; perhaps it’s because we aren’t local;- I don’t know… but the customer service sucked! The customer service review is a 1 ( only because she was nice to my husband) The beer review is a 5. Perhaps the beer review would be higher if I stayed to enjoy more. But the vibe here was not enjoyable at all. There are flights available, I just wasn’t offered this…. Others were told- it’s not posted- so if you visit and you want to try many things… flights are available. Food not served here, available next door Beer to go - but I wouldn’t know the prices, when I inquired she just said… it varies. I felt like I was Interrupting her “locals only vibe” so I just quit asking- will spend all the money set aside for this visit at the Ouray Brewery! No bathroom in the building- go across the street and turn left We learned a lot about the bartender from her conversations with others (sorry about the loss of your grandpa and Hope you have a safe flight) When my first beer was done it took her 4.5 minutes to get over to see if we needed another- there were 7 other people aside from us. Didn’t feel welcome and Will NOT be back

Love this place! A Telluride institution and I always make it a point to stop in when I visit. Kickass lager. Dangerous spirits!

We were really looking forward to visiting this brewery. My girlfriend and I drove all the way from Breckenridge to camp and spend the day here, and the main plan was to enjoy a few beers together. Unfortunately, she was not allowed to order because her driver’s license is from another country. We were excited to support this place, but instead left with a very negative impression. I hope the brewery can reconsider their policy in the future so international visitors don’t feel excluded. This happen 8/21 at 5,20pm.

My wife and I visited Telluride Brewing Company recently and really enjoyed the place! The atmosphere was low key and everyone was laid back. It was a nice vibe compared to the tourist trap vibe of the Town of Telluride. We sat outside and enjoyed our beers while watching people come and go. The See Forever Hazy paired well with the warm sunshine. It seemed like most people were local or at least local to Colorado. When you get tired of the nonsense of downtown Telluride drop by the Telluride Brewing Company to experience the authentic side of Colorado. The people are friendly and the beer is great, what more can you ask for?

Tasty beer and friendly staff. I had a Kashmir IPA and whatever my wife had was good too. We sat outside and enjoyed the warm weather. Check this place out for the beer, the best we had in Telluride.

Awesome small town brewery with a big presence. Easily the best brewery in Colorado. Really cool, old school brewery where the taproom is incorporated into the brewing area. Something many breweries have lost. This brewery taproom doesn’t serve many but the brewery itself easily serves the entire state.

First of all… what a view!!! Staff was amazing, professional and personable. The bartender made us feel welcome while we waited for our table. He also made a drink to pair perfectly with my husbands meal when requested. We had a slight issue with our meal and it was handled professionally and the manager made sure everything was right. I was very impressed with the level of customer service we received. The food was delicious. This was the highlight of our trip and I highly recommend them!

It was a special celebration, and this staff was amazing! Maddison the Manager, Ana our Host, Rafa the BackWaiter, Lance the Sommelier, and Patrick our Server went above and beyond to make our night special!! I’m sorry if I missed anyone because this Staff really is great! The food was delicious and served hot! The drinks incredible too. The desserts were also unique but I was so full from what we feel were Top-Chef produced dishes.The Rack of Lamb was tender and cooked perfectly ! If you come to Telluride just the atmosphere and view at this restaurant alone makes it worth it but then you get all of the above too!!! Wow!

Such a great experience here! Was originally sitting at the bar waiting for the rest of my party and they asked if I wanted to get the last window spot and it ended up being the best seat in the house. What a view! For being a restaurant people go to mostly for ambiance the food was spectacular and off of a prix fixe menu with add ons available at an extra charge. Big portions so you really don't need anything else. Everyone enjoyed their dishes but highlights for me were the cauliflower soup, lamb and the chocolate mousse dessert. For the lamb one wasn't as cooked as the others (true rare side) but not a biggie. I understand it's a high end restaurant but would have also appreciated more bottles of wine under $200.

We've been to Allred's multiple times across a decade at this point. The views are always incredible and the decor inside is on point for the mountain aesthetic. Service in the past, and on this trip, was hit or miss and I'd say the food experience varies as well. With that said, our most recent visit in June 2025 was to the bar which had great views and decent drinks. Allred's is popular for a reason, but I value it's views/vibes primarily.

Amazing views!! Food was good. Cocktails didn’t particularly like. Price a little high.

I’m the most lucky 🍀 guy to have such amazing friends that took me to celebrate my birthday 🎂 dinner at one of the most prestigious restaurants in the world. Thank you 🙏🏼 to the Chef 👨‍🍳 for Adam Pace for such a wonderful dinner and coming over to our table to speak with us.

The view is amazing and we wanted to try this place but the food is pretty meh and not too impressed with their cocktails. The steak wasn’t good quality for waygu and the price. Steak was tough and over cooked and really tasted nothing like I expected. Overall the food left a lot to be desired unfortunately 😑

Blonde haired lady the first night was FANTASTIC but the second night the man not so great . Treated my father in law pretty rude, thank goodness some people from Austin, Texas took up for him to the bartender (he is 79) but overall pretty cool experience … again I hate that I don’t know her name but she was great ! I think she has worked there for a while .. she knew the locals so I hope she knows she is appreciated.

While the interior is beautiful and moody, I can't say we had a positive experience at the New Sheridan bar. We were able to grab a seat at the bar with no wait, but got a pretty intense review of our IDs before any service. I agree it is fair to review IDs however is needed, but it's the only place in Colorado during our week and half trip where there was hesitation so not sure what the issue was. The drinks themselves we received were weak and overly sweet and we expected more impressive liquor/whiskey options to match the historic bar setup/vibes.

Beautiful, historic building. The bar is so well built, amazing wood work and tin ceiling tiles. $5 Jack Daniel’s in Telluride, that was not expected! Bar tender was very friendly and great service. It got busy as it started to rain and it was a very fun crowd with great energy.

Best brunch of the trip. Didn’t have to wait , great menu options and was DELICIOUS.

First time in Telluride. We had a few drinks on the rooftop bar with Nico who is spectacular and had some great stories to tell and then we proceeded downstairs to try the Elk! It was spectacular and so was our bartender, Ruben.

While the ambiance of the bar is undeniably striking—thoughtfully designed and full of character—the bar program falls flat. The bartender’s execution of a simple Old Fashioned revealed a concerning lack of foundational cocktail knowledge, resulting in a drink that was both unbalanced and uninspired. A venue with such promise deserves a bar staff capable of matching its aesthetic with equal craft.

The drink prices are extremely reasonable. Atmosphere is great. I'm only knocking it down a star because the pool tables are too close together, and it's extremely difficult to play pool here. You are constantly dodging other patrons when lining up your shot.

Stumbling upon Cosmopolitan Bar and Restaurant at the eleventh hour of happy hour felt like a serendipitous win. The ever-gracious hostess, the true star of the evening, swept us in at the last moment, seating us with a warmth that set the tone for impeccable service. With a well-timed order, we snagged a salmon volcano roll alongside shrimp and calamari—both decent, neither dazzling. The food? Let’s just say it plays it safe. No culinary fireworks, no bold flavors to write home about—just your run-of-the-mill fare that neither offends nor excites. If you’re after an unforgettable gastronomic experience, you might want to cast your net elsewhere. But if a front-row seat to the gondola’s graceful glide is what you seek, then by all means, sit back, sip, and soak in the view.

Scallops as an appetizer were phenomenal. Steak cooked great really amazing salmon and a delicious warm vanilla bundt cake.

Excellent and friendly service from this very busy restaurant and staff. Miriam, at the bar, was top notch. This place is popular and you should make a reservation but if not, their outdoor desk is standby as is there small bar inside. The bread is amazing. The Tuna smoked in the plate was very unique and delicious ! The chopped salad was also incredible. Check them out, You’ll be happy you did!

Overall a great first experience at Cosmo. They have a bar and fine dining area, but neither were stuffy. Great service and the food was excellent. I had the surf and turf and my dad had the halibut.

Our best dinner at telluride so far. Service was excellent. We loved the eclectic menu. Even the bread was exceptional. Tried the calamari and volcano roll as appetizers. Then the duck, surf and turf, filet, and salmon. All were excellent, and the picky eaters cleaned their plates.

Excellent food and a great vibe. Jeff made our dining experience very relaxing and Damon helped us pick the perfect wine. One of our favorite places in Telluride. Will be back again. 😊

I ordered the surf and turf and I thought it was very good! The reason for 3 stars was bc of our waiter. However, management worked hard to fix the issue. I didn’t like that it took awhile to get service even with our reservation and I finally decided to ask the waiter if we were going to get some of the delicious bread that I read about on previous reviews. He said yep it’s coming right up and he went over to the bread station and grabbed the cut loaf with his bare hands and sloppy tossed it on a plate. The bread had a great texture, but it was not warm it was cold inside like it had been frozen and not warmed enough. My companion also asked for no oyster mushroom sauce on his steak and the waiter said it was very good though and he would put it on the side. The reply was no thank you don’t even put it on the side . When the steak came it had the mushrooms all over it. We weren’t pleased about that. We overheard some other couples complaining also. We got a new waiter and another steak, but it kinda ruined the nice dinner.

My wife had the elk bolognese. It was very good. I had the fish and chips and wasn’t impressed. The temperature in the restaurant was very hot and stuffy. I am from Texas and can handle heat. I actually stepped outside for a while to cool off. Want to note there is an extra charge for paying housing for employees. We had two regular dinner items, the wife had a side salad and 1 glass of wine each. Our bill was $132.

Came for lunch and we both got burgers (I got the bacon one) and both were great! House salad was an apple and walnut mix and was surprisingly good! For beer they had flights available with a good mix of options and I liked them all (seasonal pumpkin one was fun).

This place was amazing, great tacos, ribs as well as their coleslaw! We sat outside in the cool breeze, our server was attentive and polite.

The host tainted the experience. I was less than impressed with the service prior to being seated but our server was an improvement. He was a good server but he was busy. I had the pumpkin plunge (spiced Belgian ale). It was very good. My wife had the Sauvignon Blanc and was very impressed. I had the Alaskan Cod and Fries for my meal. The fries were seasoned well but cold have benefited from a second fry to crisp them up. The fish was nice and flaky. The slaw was excellent— the jalapeño was a nice touch. The house made tartar sauce was a little too heavy on the lemon. My wife had the bbq burger and fries and was very pleased. Overall, I think it was a good stop with solid food and a nice atmosphere.

We walked in on a whim, and we were blown away. The food was delicious, the service was even better. It’s a busy place and we sat at the bar, but were easily able to order food and didn’t feel overwhelmed. The bartender (had a ponytail, baseball hat, didn’t catch his name) was incredibly kind and helpful, and so was the other gentleman who helped us (maybe bar manager). The best food we’ve had in telluride and the best dining experience.

I love this place. I’ve been coming to Telluride for a decade, and I ALWAYS make a point to eat here at least once. Great food made with quality ingredients. Service is helpful and friendly. Beers are tasty and fresh. The spirits are high quality and thoughtfully chosen.

Drew made the experience top-notch. This server is professional, and knows the menu well enough to add the nuance needed to elevate your experience. Thanks Drew, highly recommend 🤙 He even took this picture for us.

Just celebrated our 45th Anniversary at the New Sheridan Chop House Restaurant. It was an amazing dinner thanks to our waiter Travers who was fantastic. We started with cocktails and had an opportunity to enjoy them before even discussing the specials on the menu. Our waiter had impeccable timing not rushing but being attentive to all the details. We ordered the wedge salad for an appetizer and the New York strip entree which was cooked to perfection (medium rare) with sides of asparagus and truffle fries. Dessert was key lime pie. Everything was wonderful and provided an enjoyable evening experience. Thanks to the management of the New Sheridan for providing such a great dining establishment.

From the moment we walked in, we were impressed. The atmosphere was warm, elegant, and inviting perfect for a romantic dinner or a special occasion. The service was top-notch, our server was friendly, knowledgeable about the menu. The steak was absolutely phenomenal. Cooked to perfection, beautifully seasoned, and melt in your mouth tender. But what really blew us away was the dessert. Highly recommend it!

Ok so here is rhe honest truth about the food overall it was to die for delicious but I had a slight problem with my 10 Oz filled minion steak it was cooked to perfection medium rare as I ordered it but it was very dry with no moisture in the meat, but when you pay $80 for a steak you sure expect it to be perfect. But when I called my server over and explained this to him he was in 100% agreement and said no absolutely not i can tell from looking at it that it is not right, and he immediately took it off the bill no questions asked. Beside that everything was perfect even Wiliams 15 Oz new York strip was to die for delicious

Upon entry into the establishment the waiter greeted us by saying do you have a reservation. We said no. He said you can sit by the entrance where the whole restaurant was empty. He said if you want a different table go to the hostess. The manager shrugged us off. Very unprofessional. Our waiter that we had was great! The fish was dry. The appetizers pictured were really good.

All honesty, the food was good, not amazing. The experience is what gives them 5 stars. The scallop plate with pearled couscous was 5 stars no doubt. Same with the melon bruschetta. The trumpet mushrooms were okay, the lobster mac and cheese was okay. It’s tough with fine dining restaurants because you pay a pretty penny for what might not be that good, my own personal opinion. Nick was great, our waiter. On top of the service, he was friendly, conversational and helpful. Overall great service as well from the staff accommodating my special requests with the wine and flowers. Thank you to the people of the New Sheridan Chophouse.

Located in the iconic Sheridan hotel, the hotel itself is a big landmark in town. We are a group of 9 were seated in the corner where the wine cabinets are which is semi private. Our server is super friendly and we got couple bottles of wine from the cabinet they are at a decent price. The side dishes are good for table share, pretty good portion, so you can order one side per two person to share. The truffle fries are crispy cornbread is warm and fluffy. For the main I shared the bison, the size is pretty big, I can’t imagine to finish by myself. I think everyone else is sharing the main unless you are really hungry The meal is not cheap definitely a splurge for the trip, but really enjoyed the meal.

What a wonderful evening. It was cold and rainy outside, but warm and cozy inside. We had a great meal and the service was excellent. I started with the wedge salad, which was very flavorful, with blue cheese crumbles and Nueske's bacon. My wife started with the gazpacho and it was wonderful. Then we each had a filet mignon, and they were cooked to perfection - very tender and flavorful. The spinach and french fries were great. We topped it off by sharing the key-lime pie which rivaled one we had had years ago at Ziggys's in the Florida Keys. Thank you for being a great part of Telluride.

Very delicious food. Small plates style. They use tamari and the cucumbers and pear salad were awesome. Several flavor layers and reasonable portion sizes. We also got the duck bao bun on a lettuce wrap and the wagyu skewers. Pricey but not egregious for Telluride. The duck was awesome- can only imagine how good it would be on a bun. Their liquor options were all top shelf. Not complicated cocktails but high end ingredients.

This place is a gem. Unique energy, great food with Asian inspiration, and fantastic cocktails. The bar tenders gave great service and are a large piece of the fun vibe that makes There so uniquely great. I recommend making a reservation - the first time we went they were able to squeeze us in after a short wait, but it is small and intimate so we could have waited a lot longer.

Love this funky Telluride restaurant. Innovative and delicious food, drinks and overall vibe. Some of the staff are a little too cool but if you can override the attitudes and see the forest through the trees, overall a worthy experience. Love their cocktails especially.

The atmosphere is lively and exciting — a great place if you’re looking for energy and fun. That said, the food portions are small for the price. It feels like you’re getting skimped at every turn, which makes the value hard to justify. Drinks are also on the expensive side, but they’re crafted really well and worth trying. The service stands out — friendly, attentive, and genuinely welcoming. Overall, a fun spot for drinks and vibe, but not the best choice if you’re coming for a satisfying meal.

I know when it comes to Telluride, it's really hard to go wrong. The food & service industry there has it down. And having lived & worked there for the better part of two years, I know. But There REALLY has things dialed in. Of all the times I've been there for drinks, dinner or apres ski, I have literally never had a bad experience. The drinks are amazing, pretty much everything on the menu. The food is more of a tapas type, smaller portion. But oh, so, delicious. 🤤 The staff really know how to run the place given how busy they get. Again, never a bad experience. Make There a must stop if you're in town.

Service was 4/5 - polite, friendly, helpful, but slow to check on us and they seemed understaffed. Food was 2/5 - the eggplant was extremely salty (tasted like straight miso paste) while the radish and cabbage were completely unseasoned. Brussels sprouts were all chips and no actual Brussels - was like eating air or getting a second order of popcorn. Crab baos were tasty. Elk wontons were dry inside and overcooked. Salmon crudo was flavorless and again with watery flavorless radishes making for a really weird texture differential. Popcorn was the best thing we had which does not match the price. Prices were gauging for so many of the dishes being mid. For a small menu that’s been on since spring it felt like BOH was not in it tonight. Value 1/5. Left hungry due to not wanting to be burned on anything else.

Very unique and delicious food the bao buns and the paccheri pasta were both brilliant. Drinks and cocktails were amazing too with very friendly bartenders. The whole vibe was 10/10.

I really enjoyed their beer selection, which offers a variety of options for every palate. Pairing it with their brat made for a satisfying meal; the brat was flavorful and well-cooked. For families, there’s a kid-friendly option with the hotdog and fries combo, which is priced at $11. The outdoor seating on the balcony was a highlight, especially with the fall leaves creating a beautiful and relaxing backdrop. It’s a great spot to enjoy a casual meal with scenic views. On the downside, I wasn’t a fan of the pretzel. It was a bit too hard for my liking, and at $9 or $10, it didn’t feel worth the price. However, the fries were fantastic. They’re on the thinner side, with a perfect balance of crunch on the outside and a soft, fluffy inside. Overall, while some items were hit or miss, the setting and beer selection made it a great spot to relax and enjoy the season.

Stopped by on our first night for drinks and decided to come back our second night to try the food. Everything was so good! Great beer and the food was amazing. Loved the Mac n cheese and beef sandwich, and the side salad was huge and so delicious. They took great care to accommodate my daughter’s food allergies. Gorgeous building too.

Nice brewpub with outdoor and indoor seating and above average food options. Didn't adore each beer we tried, but a solid experience for sure

A great place to stop by for a drink and a bite to eat! We loved sitting on the patio with our dog but the inside looked lovely too. The staff are so kind we’ve already been here twice on our short trip.

The history of the building is worth researching. We stopped for dinner and the food was amazing. Yes, some reviews say the music is loud, but we were able to have a good conversation without talking loud. The service was excellent, bartender and waiter very attentive. My husband had the solo bratwurst with onions and brown mustard ✅. I had the green chili and the pork melts in your mouth, with carrots that still have color and texture, side cilantro, red onion and jalapeños to add to taste.

We loved this place! Service and food was top quality!

Best spot in Telluride, delicious $6 pints is unmatched. Probably the best pretzel/ beer cheese I've ever had. Steps to the free gondola. I will certainly be back every time im here

We stayed at the Madeline Hotel and each morning, this was the restaurant where breakfast was served for hotel guests. Our only experience dining here was for breakfast and it was just ok. Main reason for the below than average experience each time we were here was the staff. Even though there seemed to be plenty of staff members, somehow it always took at least 10-15 minutes after we sat down before we were even greeted by our server. This could certainly be excused if every table was full but when you’re only one of about 6 tables taken, it was hard to believe how long it took someone to come over to us. It’s hard to have any kind of pleasant experience anywhere when you sit down and feel like you’re an inconvenience for being there. I’m sure that wasn’t the intention although that’s how the delayed welcome made us feel…two days in a row. It just feels like a restaurant who is associated with a luxury hotel would have better effort from their staff to provide excellent service. Even while we sat there and waited for our food, we hardly ever saw our server. The food itself was fine. I made a poor order the first morning with the chicken and waffles. The waffle part was good but the chicken on top didn’t look like a good piece of meat - it was tough and fatty without much taste. I didn’t eat much of the chicken so luckily the waffle was good. My wife enjoyed her lavender blackberry pancakes but said the flavor got a little strong near the end. The presentation was nice but we’re talking about breakfast here, there’s not much need to dress up the menu items too much. The next morning we played it safe - I got their Rocky Mountain Morning (eggs, bacon, toast, potatoes) and my wife got the Palisade Peach Oatmeal Bowl. It’s hard to mess up my order so it was good and my wife did enjoy her oatmeal. But again, poor service throughout breakfast. Hopefully the servers during the dinner hour are better but I wouldn’t waste your time here for breakfast, especially with the prices being so high. Maybe if the service matched the prices you’re expected to pay but it really made it hard getting the bill each time knowing how unwelcome our servers made us feel. Can’t imagine we’d come back, even if we were given free breakfast through the hotel - it just wasn’t worth it.

This place is class. I loved the food here, the service , the staff was amazing. Claudia was very nice and helpful with the menu and the service was amazing. I had the burger with the foie grass and is was really good. The foie grass was cooked to perfection. The burger was well balanced and the fries were really good. And don’t forget desert the crème burlee was delicious with a hint of basil and some strawberry and amazing combination.

My sister and me have dinner tonight in Black Iron, and we have a wonderful dinner! starting with the host Paula is very nice, Reka was our server and was excellent, the back waiters did a excellent job. The food and dessert was delicious. The drinks delicious. I will definitely come back. Thank you to all the staff.

Love the atmosphere, the Elk Tatar was delicious. It is on the high price. My dinner was good but a bit too rich ( I could not finished ).

My husband and I came here to celebrate our anniversary and we certainly felt special! The service was fantastic including extra celebratory goodies like champagne and dessert. We ordered the duck flappers, mushroom ravioli, and beef tenderloin. Each dish was very tasty and their timing was great. The cocktails were equally delish and well-balanced. We’ll be back!

Honestly if it wasn’t for the atmosphere and the experience I had earlier in the day when I stopped in for a drink I would probably give a lower rating. For dinner the food was good but the portions for price isn’t great. I had the Berkshire tomahawk and left hungry. The service was good and the atmosphere is nice. Outside of that, there are better places in town to eat.

A Disappointing Experience at a Five-Star Hotel Restaurant Our recent dining experience at a restaurant located in a prestigious five-star hotel was, unfortunately, far from the exceptional service and quality one might expect from such an establishment. Despite having a 6:30 PM reservation and arriving punctually, our evening was marred by a series of missteps that highlighted systemic issues with the restaurant’s service and operations. Upon arrival, we were greeted promptly and seated. However, the hostess attempted to place our party of five adults at a table with only four chairs, a move we had to correct by requesting a larger table. The hostess wanted to pull up an extra chair for a table that was only large enough for four. While our request was accommodated, this set the tone for what would be a disorganized and frustrating evening. After being seated, our server introduced herself and we were offered water before taking our drink order. Unfortunately, it took approximately 20–25 minutes for some of our drinks to arrive, with the remaining drinks following. This delay was a precursor to the prolonged waiting times we experienced throughout the meal. The chocolate martini ordered by one of our party was served in a wine glass and was not what was ordered. Our appetizers, consisting of soups and a bread roll, arrived only after we flagged down a manager to inquire about the delay. When they did arrive—an hour after ordering—the soups were cold, and the bread was initially forgotten. The manager, who informed us it was only his second day on the job and he was brought in to fix some of the issues the restaurant was having, apologized and acknowledged the service issues. He stated that he was brought in similar to the tv show Bar Rescue. The main course fared no better. Four out of five entrees were served after an hour and a half wait, with one hamburger missing entirely. The entrees were cold. Another 10–15 minutes passed before we flagged down a person who identified himself as the hotel manager, identifiable by his distinctive attire. He personally ensured the final entree would be out shortly. The final entree was delivered along with another apology. Throughout the evening, it became evident that we were not alone in our frustrations. The neighboring table experienced similar service issues, with missing appetizers and delayed entrees. While the staff’s apologies and the eventual comping of our entire meal were appreciated, they did little to salvage the evening or justify the restaurant’s high prices and five-star hotel reputation. The staff at this restaurant were clearly not trained to provide the services expected for a restaurant attached to a five star hotel. One example of this was when we asked one of the wait staff assistants who was refilling our water glasses for a wine menu. This was a simple request, but his reply was “I’ll get your server!” Our server was already running from table to table and clearly overloaded. In summary, while the setting and atmosphere of this hotel restaurant hinted at luxury, the execution fell woefully short. Poor service, cold food, and excessive delays overshadowed any potential highlights of the evening. For a restaurant in a five-star hotel, the standards, food, and service should be much higher.

Had an absolutely delightful time coming in here for an early dinner. I can’t thank the Chef enough for preparing me a steak before the dinner hours. It was truly one of the best I’ve ever had. All the servers, especially Sebastian, were fantastic. Can’t wait to eat here again someday.

I visited this place for my birthday and could not recommend it more. We had the greatest server, Michael Jackson, who not only provided us with great humor but also a free round of drinks and dessert. Besides the hospitality, the place blew me away with their food alone. I got their chicken which was to die for! My husband got the steak and he said it’s the best flavor in all of Colorado. All of that combined with the view makes this place a 10/10 place to eat.

Come for the restaurant's namesake, stay for the amazing seasonal desserts. I'll be thinking about the huckleberry ice cream for a long time. Trout, pot roast, burger, salads, half chicken, BLTA, and tableware are all excellent. (Skip the elk bolognese and try the dish at Smuggler's instead.) Servers are great and always make us feel welcome and cared for.

We really appreciated their shuttle service and willingness to pick us up around the mountain village! The ambiance was amazing and Shru was very attentive/friendly. We split the roasted half chicken which came with brocollini/carrots/mashed potatoes. Absolutely delish, 10/10. Highly recommend.

The fries 🍟 are pretty big potion and it wroth it. I love their chicken 🍗 that made with peach sauce. Love the view too. Next time i will gonna stay at this hotel.

This is the perfect place for dinner. Aptly named, the view is beautiful— especially at sunset. My wife and I came in to celebrate my birthday while we were in town and we were not disappointed with our choice. The service was excellent with the host offering to take our photo outside as the sun was setting. The food is top tier. I had the ribeye—accompanied by a baked potato and roasted seasonal vegetable. Delicious! My wife had the chicken pot pie which she declared was one of the best pot pies she has ever eaten— her favorite food by the way. If you are looking for a special place to have a meal then look no further. It’s on the pricier side but The View is a prime example of getting what you pay for.

I’ve had the chance to visit here both during peak season and the quieter off-season while performing maintenance at the resorts, and every experience has been fantastic. The atmosphere has a charm that fits perfectly with Telluride’s unique vibe. The food has always been excellent — great flavor, consistent quality, and plenty of options to satisfy different tastes. Their drink selection is also impressive, making it easy to find something to pair perfectly with a meal or just to enjoy on its own after a long day. What really stands out, though, is the staff. Every time I’ve visited, they’ve been welcoming, kind, and genuinely courteous, which makes a big difference no matter how busy the place is. Telluride itself is one of my favorite destinations, and this spot adds to the reason why. Whether you’re here during the rush of ski season or in the calmer months, it’s well worth stopping in — you can always count on good food, great drinks, and friendly service.

Super fresh breakfast food and pretty quick service! The Butcher & The Baker could definitely use some more seating, but we were able to grab a table pretty quickly after ordering. I didn't adore the breakfast burrito, but my bacon and eggs plate was tasty.

Walked in to the shop a few people sitting. I got up to the counter where my mom and niece were at the counter. We stood there no one around. I said “ hello” after a while a young man came up and said what can I get you and what else? No hello welcome in or we’ll be right with you. He seemed rushed to help us and a bit impatient?! We ordered our drinks and pastries, paid and left. I dont think he said thanks?!? Just weird . And I tipped him. My first time to this coffee shop and I’ve always had good service while in Telliride. Coffee was good and our croissants were good, light and flaky. Just wish the service was hospitable and kind.

The Butcher & The Baker is a definitely a must visit in Telluride! It was crazy busy when we went so expect a wait but it didn’t take very long to get through the line. Food was fresh, flavorful, and worth every penny. The burgers and sandwiches are phenomenal, and you can’t go wrong with a fresh cold local pint to wash it all down! A perfect local gem to try!

Fabulous food. Smaller interior so try to scout a seat. Did not love the famous tuna sandwich but the reuben and the lentil soup were fantastic. Fries were also really good.

Super cute brunch spot in downtown telluride! Of course beautiful views and lots of outdoor seating. Was really tough to find a menu anywhere so we just looked online. I got the tuna sandwhich which was phenomenal. House chips were great too and every meal comes w fruit which was nice. Not THAT pricey for being a nice spot in telluride but I also paid $20 and didn't get a drink. My friends meal looked kinda gross and the salad was below average. She got ciabatta and it looked like a soggy wrap. She hated her meal but I liked mine,

We were in Telluride during off-season. This was one of the few places that was open so it was busy (maybe because of the lack of options). We had the breakfast burrito and bread pudding dessert. The burrito was premade and just heated up and the bread pudding was cold. We thought we were getting fresh "farm to table" but nothing was made to order. The burrito was suppose to have sausage and it had barely any we could taste. The majority was sweet potato and eggs. That combination was disgusting. They gave you a side of salsa with was watery. Realizing that the bread pudding was cold after we already got to our table, I went back up to the counter to ask for them to heat it up. The staff were busy talking to each other and said they would bring it to me in a min. It came back to our table after 5 mins. and was still cold in the center. We were treated like we were an inconvenience. I would NOT recommend this place.

Chocolate croissant was amazing. Service - not so much. Signs telling us to “bus our own tables” didn’t really sit well with me when the staff wasn’t that busy and not very personable. If you are just coming in for grab and go, I would definitely recommend. Sitting down to enjoy a meal - choose another place.

I wanted to share my experience here, as it was the positive reviews I read about this place that brought me in. Overall, I would say the experience was just fine. We had made reservations online and were looking forward to a date night away from our daughter. However, when we were seated, my wife and I looked at each other in surprise—one seat was in a corner, and the other was right next to a waiter/waitress stand. I've included a photo because it was almost comical how many times our conversation was interrupted by staff standing directly beside me. At one point, even other guests came up to speak with their server during our meal. It was such a strange location to seat someone, especially a guest who had made a reservation. If I had seen that spot beforehand and realized that’s where we’d be seated, I probably would have changed my mind—and I don’t think I would have been too upset about it. That said, the food was excellent. However, the server had not tasted the main special and was unable to describe its flavor, which was disappointing. On the plus side, the oysters tasted fresh, and the bread was unbelievable. I mistakenly gave back my dessert menu, but luckily, since I was seated so close to the stand, I didn’t even have to get up to grab another—another moment I’ve captured in a photo haha. I hope this review helps someone else make a decision.

My husband and I came for our anniversary. Host were super sweet: instantly congratulated us after giving our names. Kelsey was our server, she was excellent and had great knowledge about the cocktail list. She also was super attentive about the fact that we don’t eat meat and made sure our pasta didn’t include mortadella. Food and drinks were delicious! We had the yellow tail crudo, the pesto bucatini and the cod 10/10! Thank you!

Mushroom festival brought with it some Amazing meals in Telluride! My 2nd night in town I enjoyed this prix fixe menu at "The National." This 4 course meal had this big guy stuffed! The wine selection here is expansive and the sommelier is very knowledgeable! She helped me select a bottle that would pair with all 4 courses and it did not disappoint throughout the entire meal. I'm almost certain this was my first time having panna cotta and I am not upset about it at all. It was rich and creamy and went well with the foccacia. The scallops were cooked to perfection and of course the mushrooms blended well with the scallops and risotto. My favorite dish of the meal was definitely the Short Rib. OH MY! This was incredible, had the meat sweats devouring this dish, it was rich and packed full of flavor that your grandmother could only dream of achieving with her Sunday dinner. The dessert was the sweet treat to finish off this amazingly filling meal. I was sitting at the bar top and enjoyed the service from the bar staff. The atmosphere is more laid back than other fine dining restaurants with more upbeat music playing at a bit of a louder volume than others. But its fun and energetic not overpowering. The meal I had was a special for Mushroom festival but if its any indication to the abilities of this cooking staff, I would gladly visit again to try something different.

We visited The National as our final big meal while in town in June 2025. I'm definitely a fan of Telluride having more fine dining options and places with the vibes of the National. Unfortunately, we came away not especially impressed. Service throughout was awkward and oddly timed - we were asked if we were ready to order essentially right when we were seated and service at no point seemed to be supporting the experience. The menu itself I thought was pretty standard for the type of New American restaurant The National was presenting itself as and the actual food we received was similarly pretty bland. The drink options were quite nice however and the atmosphere inside was top notch. I'm hopeful our experience was just growing pains for the National since I think it's the type of option Telluride needs more of.

A phenomenal experience. We come to telluride every fall and this is one of our favorite restaurants to dine at. Everytime the food and service is amazing. Our server tonight was Michael and he was exceptional. One of the best servers we’ve ever had. He was very educated on the menu and had great suggestions. We tried the new salmon on the menu tonight and were very pleased. We are here for 2 weeks and just might have to come again next week! Thank you Michael and thank you to the chef! Delicious!

Kate, Daniel, and the rest of the team at The National was fantastic. They hosted an after-wedding drinks and dinner for us - they had a beautiful setup on the rooftop, worked with the florist to bring in the decorations, put together a select menu for the group, and made delicious cakes. Cannot recommend enough!

We were in town for our anniversary and came across this place while we were walking downtown during the day. We made one of the last reservations for that evening and ended up having an excellent experience! When we arrived for our resy, the atmosphere was energetic from all the people filling up the restaurant. We were promptly taken to our table and as soon as we sat down, we were greeted by our server with a glass of bubbles to celebrate our anniversary! This was such an incredible start to the evening and such a special touch the restaurant made on our evening. Our menus even said “Happy Anniversary” on them! After being walked through the menu, we order a few cocktails and the Warm Focassia to kick things off - they had a great cocktail and wine list! Dinner was tough because there were so many tasty things on the menu. My wife ordered the Bigoli Carbonara and I ordered their Vadouvan Spiced Pork Chop, which was insanely good and easily one of the best pork chops I've ever had! My wife also mentioned how great her pasta was! Post-dinner we order another round of drinks - my wife went with the Flatliner cocktail and I ordered another old fashioned. Our server was really talking up their Orange-Yogurt Cake dessert - cherry compote, balsamic caramel, mascarpone whip, and ricotta ice cream - and it did not disappoint! This was such a great recommendation and our server was amazing once again and brought us another round of anniversary bubbles since he swore it paired well with the dessert...which he was absolutely right - definitely order both other those together!! Overall, our experience here was incredible and they really did a perfect job making our special day even better!

We found refuge within Baked in Telluride during a surprise June downpour. Had some tasty donuts and above average sandwiches while we waited out the rain. While it's not the best Italian hoagie style sandwich I've had, it's great to even see the option in town. Would come back next time we're in Telluride.

The fettuccini alfredo was amazing! My husband got the BLT. His only complaint was wishing there was more bacon, but said it was still really good. The baked goods looked really delicious as well. We got a piece of banana bread to go for the morning. Recommend stopping in!

We visited Baked in Telluride on July 1st, 2025 around 6 PM for dinner on our last night in town. The place had a huge variety of baked goods and an extensive menu with lots of options to choose from. There was even a grab-and-go section with pizza by the slice and pre-made salads—super convenient for people on the move. Unfortunately, our ordering experience was less than ideal. Maria helped us at the counter, and to be honest, she seemed rushed and impatient from the start. It was our first time there, and instead of feeling welcomed, we felt like we were an inconvenience. At one point, she sighed and tapped her fingers while our daughters were quickly deciding between pizza and pasta—it was uncomfortable. We even forgot to order a couple of things because we felt so hurried. When we tried to add one more item, her reaction was noticeably annoyed. A little patience and a smile would’ve gone a long way. As for the food, it was a bit of a mixed bag: • My husband had the pasta marinara with meatballs—he thought it was just okay and wouldn’t order it again. • My mother-in-law pre-ordered her pizza and enjoyed it. • My father-in-law got the avocado taco and the beef fajita taco and liked them both, though he raised an eyebrow at the $5 per taco price. Personally, I thought it was fair (plus we were paying, so 🤷‍♀️). • My younger daughters ordered plain pasta with just parmesan (picky eaters!) and they enjoyed it. • My oldest daughter went with the garlic parmesan bread as her main meal and loved it. I tried it too—it was super flavorful, though a bit heavy on the garlic. • I ordered the double black angus chili, which sounded amazing. It was hearty and loaded with ingredients—black beans, tomatoes, celery, green peppers, onions, and beef—but it lacked the bold spices I expect in chili (especially being from Texas). It tasted more like a tomato-based stew than a true chili. Still decent, just not what I was hoping for. The dining experience itself was just okay. There were flies buzzing around, which was frustrating and distracting while eating. Oddly, this was the only restaurant in Telluride during our week-long trip where we ran into that issue. The bathrooms could definitely use more attention. They were out of toilet paper and we had to use rough paper towels instead. The floors were also pretty dirty—maybe from an earlier rush, but still not ideal. In short, Baked in Telluride has a lot of potential with its big menu and bakery selection, but the service and cleanliness really need improvement. Unfortunately, we probably won’t return on future visits. * I was only able to take a picture of my chili since I had to fight off flies, but the garlic parmesan bread looked amazing!

What an amazing bakery in the middle of telluride. My cinnamon chronut was one of the best I've ever had. Great service, tons of variety and a great location. What's not to like?!

Good spot to stop off for a grab and go breakfast. Has a nice selection of pastries and some premade breakfast sandwiches/burritos. They also do breakfast plates to order but most of the customers seem to take advantage of the grab and go selection. I had a bacon and egg burrito from the grab and go cabinet. It was alright. It was made mostly off egg with potentially a slice of bacon scattered throughout. The eggs within the burrito are powdered eggs (I believe). If they aren’t, they are like it. I would give three stars but my wife has gotten pastries from here several times and said they are all good— they all look very good. She was also pleased with her iced coffee.

Great place with great coffee and baked goods They offer pizza and pasta and tacos. Can get by the slice pizza.

Stopped for breakfast ✅ with the added bonus of the pastries. The orejón is amazing, not sweet, just perfect.

The steak tartare and trout niçoise were amazing, duck cassoulet and cheese plate were alright. The service though was kind of hilarious. This place thinks they’re some fine dining experience but they’re the trashiest service I’ve had in a while. Our server was actually nice but droned on and on about how amazing and high class their food is which I found extremely tacky. At the end of the dinner a girl came up to us and told us verbatim “Have you paid? No rush but there are people waiting to eat here.” Not very representative of the fine dining experience they pretend to be and I genuinely hope a manager sees this so they can train their staff to behave properly.

Met the chef. Young and inspired and obviously passionate about what he does. 3 courses for under 100$ is amazing in a ski town. Fantastic wine selection. Steak tartare was incredible, caramelized onions under the steak was a great and tasty surprise! Interior and exterior of restaurant was very pretty.

This was our first dining stop of the trip. We ate outside on the porch which was quiet and welcoming. All the food was great and dessert did not disappoint! Creme Brûlée is a must per my mom and I loved the chocolate and cheesecake.

The quality and service here are absolutely excellent. We experienced a medical emergency during our visit, and the staff went above and beyond to take care of us with kindness and professionalism the entire time. On top of that, the food was outstanding and the atmosphere was top tier. Truly an unforgettable experience- we are so grateful!

Fantastic experience at this modern French Telluride institution. Very well trained, friendly and effective wait staff. Cozy indoor restaurant environment (heated glass Igloos outside also offer a unique dining experience). Enjoyed bone marrow (pictured), croquettes, curried mussels, Beef Bourguignon, Snake River ribeye steak, an apple tart and chocolate cheesecake mousse. House cocktails and wine selections were also first class. Coffee came in French presses of course. For everything in Telluride, cost was appropriate (diner for two plus tip was a little north of $400). Definitely one of Telluride's best. Adding to our fine dining rotation.

La Marmotte is another one of Telluride's best restaurants. Our overall experience tonight was outstanding all the way around. This place makes you feel like you're dining somewhere in the French Alps. It's a special place and highly recommended if you're looking for a unique meal in the town of Telluride.

Came here for our wedding (elopement) dinner. Researched many other restaurants in the area prior to making a reservation here and couldn’t have been happier with the outcome. They had us seated in the back corner where it was more private and intimate. They even brought us a complementary appetizer which was amazing. The wagyu tartar was awesome and so was the mushroom risotto. Mark (I believe was his name) helped us reserve the table months in advance and even helped when we called a few weeks prior to make sure we were still good. Thanks again for capping off a memorable day.

This spot is in a great location right next to the gondola. The atmosphere is great. They have great dog friendly patio seating here. The beers were great, as well as the fries. The pulled pork sandwich was okay. It was lacking in flavor, and the bun was soggy. The service was fast and friendly. Great spot to grab a beer and enjoy the town and incredible views.

Visited Oak at the Fat Alley in Telluride and was very disappointed with the food. I ordered the Carolina Pulled Pork Sandwich ($17) and the Smoked Brisket Sandwich ($19), both of which came with free sides. Unfortunately, both sandwiches were bland and unseasoned—the meats tasted like they were just boiled and dropped on a bun. No veggies, cheese, or garnish—just plain meat and bread. To make it worse, the bottom bun was soggy and fell apart when I tried to lift the sandwich. For the price, I expected much better. It honestly felt like a rip-off. Only reason I’m giving 1 star instead of none is for the ambiance—great indoor and outdoor seating. But I won’t be back.

Great bar and restaurant at the foot of the gondola. Fantastic location, good food and great beer and wine offerings. The chicken Caesar salad was delicious and the chicken wings were as good as promised!

This place has great food and great service, along with some great local beers on tap. We had their Cheese Steak sandwich and grilled Salmon Sandwich, and they were both great and delicious! They have some delicious wedge cut sweet potato fries!

As many others have commented, this is not really a BBQ place. I had the bbq chicken and the generic chicken I get at Whole Foods is juicier and tastier than this. My chicken was a bit tough and dry. It felt like I was eating yesterday's leftovers. The saving grace was the 3-burger slider. Those were actually a bit bigger than expected and they were not dry, but again, the bbq flavor was not there. Meh experience.

Food was good, service not so much. Staff was friendly, but getting their attention to get a dessert or the check was difficult. I finished my cider, and I was not asked if I wanted another. (Mind you, I have an open tab, so why not ask? How much do you want to bring in?) As I said the food was good. I got a half rack of ribs and a side of red beans and rice. For dessert, a slice of pecan pie. The ribs could have used a rub prior to being cooked and sauced, I think the rub would have added a bit of missing spice that the sauce didn't have. I did like the hearty pieces of peppers and onions in the sauce, though. Red beans and rice, again, need some seasoning. This is supposed to be a southern-inspired restaurant. The hot sauce on the table added what the red beans and rice were lacking. The pecan pie was properly warmed in an oven (evident by some slight crust blackening), served with a scoop of vanilla ice cream. It was a good finish to the meal. If you don't mind being left alone by servers at a full-service establishment, this place may be your cup of tea. While food is really nothing spectacular, it was still good.

Excellent ribs. A full rack is massive.

I was there on a Wednesday nite and it was really dead but the bartender was really nice and keep the place open a lil longer for us and kept the tunes going.... Nice and clean and I recommend.

Best bar in telluride. Great staff, service, and drinks. I had my wedding welcome drinks here and always make it a point to stop by when we're in town. I noticed a bad review and absolutely disagree with the "local". We had a fantastic experience with Lindsey and her team. I would recommend them for any event or casual night on the town.

Cocktails were amazing. Kind and friendly service. Lovely chill atmosphere. Side patio with Mountain View’s. Indoor space has a cool speakeasy vibe. We were craving margaritas and they weren’t on the menu but the bartender made them anyway and crushed it!

I am not usually one to leave a review (good or bad) but this experience made me feel like I had to. The bar itself was cool but the bartenders were incredibly rude. A guy at the bar was wasted and kept trying to talk to us and then bought our drinks without us asking and the bartenders gave us a guilt trip for not talking to him. We ordered birthday shots and they both poured themselves shots to do with us and then proceeded to charge us for the shots they did. Overall, bad experience. Would not go back or recommend.

Terrible experience. We came in with a wedding party on Thursday karaoke night and the DJ absolutely ruined our night. He was so rude, demeaning, and screamed at my friends for accidentally dropping a microphone. Would not recommend if you want to have fun with a group in Telluride. Many other places with better atmosphere and decent people!

This is definitely an immeasurable upgrade from O'Bannon's! the drinks are yummy. The bar tenders are kind and can make change and jump over the bar like Sam Malone. The sound guy for live music is excellent. The toilets flush and if you drop your scarf you can put it back on! When it was "obs" if you dropped your scarf you'd have to burn your scarff. I am so happy about the liberty. Go there if you're bar hopping in Telluride.

Swanky lounge with mini living room set-ups all over (board games included). I love the vibe. Great bartenders and drinks. Sometimes live music/dj. Oh and now you can order food from the new (best) Thai restaurant in Telluride, Wok of Joy (they might even deliver it if they have enough staff working that night). Could be a speak-easy if it was more deliberately hidden. It's also casual so no need to put your fancy dress on, unless you want to ofc.

Gringo tacos, pulled pork sliders. A+++ Engaged bartender. Denver Brewing Amber Lager was perfect.

My partner and I have been here many times. Georgia was our bartender tonight and she was awesome. Super friendly! Our party of 6 all enjoyed their food and had a great night. This is the place to go if your looking to get out of the hustle and bustle of Telluride and feel like your at your favorite local spot.

Stopped by after dinner so I can’t speak to the food, but awesome bar for drinks in mountain village! Simple place with divey vibes and friendly people. Both the staff and customers! Prices are cheap, pool table is a blast, and the bartenders were on fire with the music all night. Couldn’t recommend this spot enough!

Completely upset with the owner for lack of integrity. Set an event for my daughter's post-wedding party. Spoke to 2 other people before him (last fall and over Thanksgiving), confirmed the date with Adam in Janaury and we left it saying we would connect with the restaurant on food in April/May. Spoke to him today and said that he was booked for another private party. Said he must have gotten us mixed up! Will NOT support any business that has such a lack of integrity and business ethics. He had all our information!! Weddings are already stressful to plan and to have an owner like should not be an owner. And he laughed it off!!!!! Unbelievable!!!

Awesome pub!! We had some good food and really good drinks. We played pool and had a wonderful time in our vacation here in Telluride. Can't wait to comeback!!

The day we went we were the only patrons other than 1 guy at the bar. Didn’t expect much but the food was surprisingly good! We all loved our lunch. I got a turkey sandwich that was so delicious, and the fries were some of the best I’ve ever had. Perfect amount of crisp and fluffy. We sat outside and had a beautiful view until it got a bit too chilly and we went inside. The owner was rad too.

Shoutout to Kirsten for being so hospitable and FUN. The sliders were perfectly OK, the tater tots were the star of the show. None in our party were crazy about the Mexican offerings.

What an incredible oasis on the mountain at Telluride? Our group met for lunch daily, and we enjoyed every bit of the experience from the cocktails to beer selection to live music to food! And don't forget to slide down the hill a few times. The QR Code system went down on our last day, but the staff worked hard to accept orders at the counter and quickly deliver food. Well done.

We had a great time skiing and then a great time recharging with live music and refreshments on the mountain. You will probably find a seat for your group but it helps to not wait too long. It gets crowded the closer to noon it gets.

Wonderful view, but the food was just ok, was pricy for what it was, and tables were very hard to find. There are better places on the mountain. They do serve a variety of food and alcohol and have (limited) indoor and outdoor seating.

Great place to take a break and grab something to eat on the slopes. Prices are high, and it's sideways crowded, but the food is hot and good

Best stop-over ever. Outstanding drinks and special beers. And if you are ever so lucky you can get a chili dog with your what-ever drink. Beautiful stowe.

Best margarita and setting combo in the USA! Nice generous pour with a Grand Marnier floater! Live music, sunshine and more skiing make this the best Margarita in the USA! See disappointing margarita in previous post and best Bloody Mary in next post!

Great margaritas ($8) and beer selection. Pricey of course but awesome views and live music make it worth it in my opinion.

Really expensive, but food was good. Pasta portion was small in relation to the price ($40+) but the chicken parmesan was a large portion, and good. Service, meh, but the nice lady working nearby tables picked up the slack.

We were craving authentic pasta, and while Telluride doesn’t offer many options, this place seemed to be our best bet. Despite mixed reviews—some saying it was overpriced and others calling the food mediocre—we decided to give it a try. Unfortunately, the reviews were spot on. The menu claims the food is “made to order,” but my veal marsala told a different story. The marsala sauce was so separated that it was essentially just oil poured over the meat. My wife’s bolognese wasn’t any fresher—the sauce tasted flat and uninspired. If “made to order” simply means plating pre-made food when you order it, then yes, they’ve mastered that. The service was… confusing. While we were attended to regularly, we never knew who was actually our server. At least three or four different people came by to take drink orders, and it was unclear who to approach when we needed something. Overall, I wouldn’t go back. It was the most expensive meal of our trip and easily the worst. The small Italian spot near our home serves genuinely fresh, made-to-order dishes for a fraction of the cost—and far better quality. On a positive note, the ambiance was nice, but that’s hard to mess up when you’re dining on a patio surrounded by mountains.

Expensive but pretty decent Italian place if you are in the mood for it.

Thank you Bruno for the recommendations outstanding service. Bruno was our waiter, host, and wine specialist. He is a top notch person and made our experience enjoyable. The food is exceptional. I haven’t tried one thing I didn’t love. The lasagna is the best lasagna I have ever had and the bolognese is the real deal. The service is great..the ambiance was nice and romantic. Thank you for making our trip!

Was not impressed with service. We scheduled a reservation and when we arrived there was no record for our reservation. We are accepted but I noticed many others experienced the same situation. Communication is lacking. The food was okay, didn't amaze me in any way.

This place blew me away...it was so good!!! My wife and I split gnocchi and lobster ravioli and I loved both. It is a REALLY expensive place, but worth it. I would definitely come back to try something different.

Absolutely impeccable service, attention to detail and food quality is top notch. Highly Recommend this place for lunch or dinner.

Great place to hang out and enjoy some excellently crafted cocktails! We were staying in Mountain Village and I always love visiting local distilleries whenever we travel. I don’t believe they make anything at this location as it seemed to just be a tasting room/bar. It was still a little early in the afternoon so we had the whole place to ourselves. The bartender was super friendly and make some fantastic cocktails! I started the afternoon strong with their Rye Old Fashioned and my wife tried one of their mocktails, the Shandy. They actually had a really long mocktail lost so even if you aren’t in the mood for a cocktail, their mocktail options were fantastic. We both thoroughly enjoyed our drinks and we ended up hanging out for a while as the atmosphere inside was really great! We had a really nice time just the two of us although I would imagine this would be a great place for a group to come and grab some drinks! Great place, great cocktails, great experience - we’ll be back!

Love this place for more than just the pours, but the story behind this brand, while tragic, is incredible. The is a comfy little spot with a pool table, popcorn machine, and little nooks for different groups to hang out in. The staff were amazing and held the story of Abbott close. Their passion was inspiring and you should definitely swing over for a post meal pour or cocktail. I didn't try the whole line up, but the whiskey and the pineapple cocktail were great. Grab the limited release Abbott's Reserve Batch 1 if you can. Only down side is there isn't food here. So grab food before you come out, or plan your spot for a little late night snack.

Loved the menu so much we had 2 extended visits during our stay in the village. The vodka mule, chairlift, & spiked hot chocolate were my favorites...they also make a pretty good margarita! The warm cocktail options were perfect on a sub-freezing day ❄️❄️❄️ The distillery has a very homey feel (& great bathrooms)...it was as if we were at home in our own living room. Only negative is that the service will be much slower when a crowd is there, as the bar/mixer area is very small with only one bartender.

Great place! A must go! They make their own whisky, vodka, and peppermint schnapps. $5 drinks are a great deal, and they are strong too. The snuggler (hot chocolate with peppermint schnapps) is DELICIOUS! Cute cabin atmosphere with a pool table, some tables, and a couch.

The most amazing drinks! Dusty was an awesome bartender and explained each drink I was interested in. We went twice on our stay! Will definitely visit again if ever back in Telluride.

Best drinks in town and best vibes too. Collin is the absolute best bartender. Every time we go there we are welcomed in like family for a relaxing fun time.

Our favorite place in Telluride. We hang out at the distillery for a hour or two playing cards after every hike. Collin is amazing and always takes the time to get to know everyone who walks in. The cocktails are amazing (highly recommend the peach mule in the summer). Our favorite part: not only are dogs welcome, but treated like royalty every time

Siam Restaurant in Telluride: The ambiance was warm, cozy, and inviting—with a unique blend of mountain charm and Thai elegance. The staff was friendly, attentive, and genuinely passionate about the food and service. Especially Mark. We tried several dishes. The Pad Thai was perfectly balanced, the Thai basil stir-fry had just the right amount of spice, and the curry was rich and aromatic. Every bite was fresh and flavorful. You can tell this place takes pride in quality and authenticity. A must-visit if you're in town—don’t miss it! On a side note: Telluride is Expensive, so expect to pay three times for everything, whether it's food, shopping, or entertainment. Be prepared... Or pack extra snacks

The sampling appetizer was phenomenal with an exceptional peanut sauce! The curry and noodle entrees were good. The restaurant has a nice decor and being popular, as soon as we got in it filled up every seat. It can be noisy at times but not to an unpleasant level. Our server took our orders as soon as we got seated and the food arrived timely. Good service. Happy we booked an earlier time.

We had the curry puffs and red curry! Perfectly cooked and extremely delicious. We tried the Mad Mango but it was extremely spicy! Our waitress was kind enough to make it again for us and toned down the spice quite a bit. Overall, great place!

Unfortunately had a really negative experience with the food at Siam. I understand that Telluride is pricier in regards to food, which I accept. What I am not a fan of was the actual flavors of the food. I ordered the ginger and garlic beef and it might be the most disappointing meal I have ever had. The beef genuinely looked boiled and completely unappetizing, the sauce was extremely watered down, and I genuinely could not finish it. The chicken satay was mediocre and the pad see ew didn't taste like pad see ew at all. I absolutely love Thai food, so this was extremely disappointing overall, especially when you considered the price. The only thing that tastes as it should, was the white rice.

my family and I came to eat at this restaurant. We were very excited and actually waited an hour and a half just for that restaurant. but we were met with very rude staff that had one of our guests at the table delivering the checks to our own table instead of the server. When we confronted her about a 20% gratuity that we did didn’t feel was fair due to the poor service with a wrong order, rude staff and ultimately having us be our own servers we let them know that we are happy to pay the bill, but that we are not pleased with the 20%. After that, the manager came to us started escalating. The situation didn’t offer any apologies and even offered to call the authorities. we were very excited to dine here and was very disappointed in the service. it is not worth your time you are met with rude staff. There is much better places to eat in town. and the hostess was not pleased to sit our party. making us feel like an inconvenience.

I would have posted a picture of the food but it was too good to take the time for that! I got the Khao Soi and my wife got the Panang and would HIGHLY recommend. We are very very picky with our Thai food. The owner came over and talked to us for some time and it made the experience even better. Super friendly to tourists and will be back every time we visit.

The food is good The service was very bad. Waited 15 minutes to be greeted. There were 3 servers. 2 servers standing around doing nothing and our server was having a lengthy conversation with another table. Ordered our meals and food came out timely and was good. We ordered desert. After waiting 25 minutes with a disappearance act from our server we just wanted the check and to leave. I walked up to another server to ask for our check and to make sure the dessert was cancelled, the server literally ran away from me stating over and over. I’m not your server, I’m not your server. I went into the kitchen area and asked another server for our check. Got it and left. Also, before our server disappeared, I was having my soup packed up to go. The server never returned with my to go soup we paid for. It was a very bizarre dinner. Disappointed

Our first trip to Telluride and what a way to start. La Cocina de Luz is a must try if visiting Telluride. We were greeted by someone from their very friendly staff and were seated immediately. Free chips and two types of salsa were brought to the table. The salsa was fresh and delicious. My wife ordered quesadillas and they covered the entire plate. I ordered the special of the day which was a pan seared rainbow trout with quajillo peppers and garlic. Holy cow it was amazing. Everything tasted so fresh. If you see it offered you HAVE to get it. It was also nice to have several of the employees come by our table to see if we were enjoying our meal. We assumed it was the owner and the chef. 5*’s for La Cocina de Luz!

Order at the counter, keep your tab open for drinks and food. The margaritas are delicious. Chile relleno with red or green sauce. The green sauce is a poblano pepper sauce, a tad spicy and delicious. The red pepper sauce is guajillo pepper, also amazing. The food is fresh, the salsas are amazing. The staff is very attentive and friendly. Bonus, the bartender is a paisana.

Decent Mexican food overall, but not particularly memorable. I had the large burrito with two sides, choosing carne asada as my filling. While it was advertised as marinated and grilled skirt steak, the texture leaned more toward pot roast than steak. The beans and rice on the side were fine but lacked seasoning and could have used more flavor. On the positive side, the guacamole was delicious, and the salsa bar was a nice touch with plenty of options. We also tried the queso fundido, which was solid and enjoyable. Good spot for a casual meal, but not one I’d go out of my way for.

Food was amazing!! Menu had lots of great choices! Definitely recommend when in town! Photo is of the fish and burrito, great flavors!

Absolutely fantastic Mexican food in Telluride. We're so grateful that there are so many vegan options here! Love the self serve chips and salsa bar, I feel like that's what makes a true Mexican spot. The customers here were pretty rude, but that is not a reflection of the restaurant itself.

Casual Mexican spot in the heart of Telluride, serving breakfast until 11:30, and a lunch/dinner menu after that. Order at the counter and they’ll serve you at your table. Big portions, we left full. Love that they have vegetarian and vegan options; ordered the vegan plate which was tasty. They have a limited alcoholic drink menu - serving beer, wine, and margaritas (also have coffee drinks and juices). Staff was friendly, vibe was casual. Lots of art decorating the walls.

La Cocina is the best!! Everyone that works here is so kind, the food is great and the atmosphere is great! And they have really cute outdoor seating when the weather is nice! Definitely go if you’re in telluride, one of our favorite spots :-)

I am a bit at odds writing a review because everyone will know that this place is by far one of the best (if not the best) in Telluride. Small, intimate, something like 12 courses, each one absolutely dialed-in, a fantastic wine pairing and stellar service. Worth every penny as there is no POSSIBLE way I could ever recreate this on my own....ever (well, except maybe the water botte, I could buy that and pour on my own I suppose). It was my better-half's birthday, and the staff took the time to write her a very personal, and heart-felt card....you just don't get that focus and attention to detail anywhere anymore. A very worthwhile splurge, fantastic food, exemplary service, great setting, and with the Chef Mike providing an explanation and back story for every course...could not have asked for a better, more personalized experience!

What an amazing place and food!!!!atmosfere 5 stars, food 5stars, service 5stars. From beginning to end everything is delicious, unique and tasty. This one most talented and creative chef. Get to the tunnel before everyone discovers it.

We had the pleasure of dining at The Tunnel last night, and it was a great experience from start to finish. Each of the eight courses was inventive and showcased attention to detail. The chef personally introduced every dish, and his passion for his work was evident throughout the night. We were especially impressed knowing how difficult it is for him to get support in the kitchen at this time—it’s incredible that he’s able to deliver this caliber of dining night after night. The front-of-house team was equally outstanding, providing warm, engaging service that made the evening all the more enjoyable.

We went here to celebrate our daughter's 24th birthday. We didn't really know what to expect but it very quickly became the highlight of our trip to Telluride. All of the kids (ages 24, 21, 13) - even the youngest one... have been talking about the food and the overall experience for days after. The education of both the wine and the cuisine was fantastic. The food was excellent. The staff were superb. In fact, we ended up making friends with the 2 other tables in the room and by the end of the night we were all singing Bohemian Rhapsody together. Best night ever!!!

We had the gastronomic pleasure to dine at Tunnel last evening with our daughter and son-in-law. Every course was so interesting, thoughtfully planned, and delicious. No weak courses, and there were 10! The dining is intimate, only 12 diners in a beautifully decorated space. The chef presented and described each course in detail, from the ingredients to the inspiration. Its only been open for 6 weeks. Please support this new venture so it will be open next time we are in telluride!

Absolutely The Best new restaurant in Telluride! Beautiful and intimate setting with only a handful of tables. Every part of the 10 course meal was beautiful and delicious, taking you on a food journey, and leaving you deliriously happy. The wine pairings were also fantastic, I'll be buying some bottles for sure.

What an exciting reboot of a unique concept for Telluride! Very intimate; it’s like you are at a private dinner party. Excellent food quality, great wine pairings, and phenomenal personal service! I’m ready for another visit!

Good pizza. Pizza is premade so it’s ready to go by the slice or you can order a fresh pie. The Cesar salad we ordered was good as well. Easy to access from skiing at Mountain Village.

Crazy Elk Pizza is by far the best pizza place in Mountain Village. This is an order at the counter, then bring your food to your seat type of place. We have had the pizza here a couple of times. It is solid. We also like the salads as well. A highly recommended place for pizza in Mountain Village.

What a bummer… place looks to be awesome. Service and staff ruin it unfortunately. Order a pizza and felt like I was in trouble for it. Sat at the bar to wait for it and never was waited on for a beer even. Bummer…

The pizza was so good we ended up having dinner here the entire time we were in the Mountain Village/Telluride area! Really friendly & accommodating staff. If you’re looking for a really delicious & relaxed meal this is definitely the place to go!

BBQ Chicken was amazing! Their crust is the best..

Delicious food, friendly staff, gorgeous Atmosphere.

Charge me for 3 pizza but only give me two and the cashier doesn’t understand ?? Or pretend that he doesn’t + did not give me my receipt

Great spot but Justin was a jerk! Great atmosphere but horrible service from Justin. We thought it was going to be a great spot that wasn’t busy but Justin killed the vibe and made us leave after 1 drink

The best dive bar ever--Justin is a great bar tender. Our group loved Buck Hunter and all the other arcade games. We brought in food from La Cocina de Luz across the street and it was great. Perfect pre-wedding party.

Classic basement dive bar/Irish pub. They have two pool tables and darts. Great place to crush a couple cocktails and play some bar sports when the weather is bad outside. Careful though because you can end up spending hours in this establishment without realizing it. Bartenders are awesome to chat with.

Total local place, cool speak easy feeling with classic arcade games. The owner takes pride in their arcade collection, the pinball machine will provide hours of entertainment, bonus, coin machine in game area. 2 bar size pool tables, a bar that stretches and occupies both rooms. Great prices, and 2$ Rolling Rock, plus strong drinks.

On arrival we met Andrew, the owner, and he gave us a warm and friendly welcome which we appreciated. Cool bar, great music and an array of old time computer games, pool tables and darts. Stella on draft, and lots of other options. Good conversation a bonus. Five stars.

Great place, staff great also but tips start at 40%? Really, Is Tulleride really that hard up? Just saying

Great basement dive.

Excellent on mountain spot to have a drink and enjoy the sun outside. Prices for beer were very reasonable for being in mountain. I recommend getting your drinks in the old cabin. They have hot drinks in there and draft beer.

Great place to take a ski break, listen to live music and soak up some sun on a blue bird day!

I mean, if you want to/need to take a break while skiing or boarding, this is the spot to do it. There is plenty of room to handle crowds. Grab a spot inside or outside to really soak in the views on a clear day. Grab just a drink or some food. Service was quick and staff super friendly. When you're done, just drop right back onto a run.

Awesome place to rest and have a bite to eat. Nice menu of sandwiches, chili, baked potatoes, assorted beverages. Friendly and fast service. Often live music or a DJ. Cool outdoor seating areas like a beach and indoor in their cabin.

4 stars for prices, but I guess it is location. Food and drinks are amazing, especially the double Marg's. View can't be beat. Covid prep is awesome even with the Texas diaspora! People are very respectful of masks unlike many places in the western slope. Only con is I remember the brats being bigger when I was a kid, but maybe that is the downside of growing up.

Amazing if you ever get the chance to come. Winter it's a great place to stop get warm in summer a great place for a wedding .

Fun place to make a stop and rest while skiing/snowboarding.

We didn’t plan to eat in Timber Room. We were just walking around the area and my sister got hungry. So we’ve decided to try out the place. I walked in and asked the bartender if we need a reservation and he was very polite and said no, as they were not busy that day. So we got seated and ready to order. My brother-in-law wants the 32oz wagyu steak prime rib and so does my sister. Good thing the server explained it to us that one order is good for 3 people. So that’s what we did and we also ordered a couple of food. Although the steak is quite expensive but it’s worth it! We had great experience. The service and the food is perfect! We will definitely be back when we visit Telluride next time. Dine in on 09.27.2022 at 6:50pm

The vibe of this place is amazing. The cocktails are also fantastic. The food, especially either of the salmon dishes, were not fresh which was unexpected for this level of restaurant. Was not impressed with any of the dishes except the burger was okay.

1st night of opening for the season and everyone was still trying to find their vibe but service was top notch and the food was fabulous. Some items were not available but the servers were super accommodating and so nice. We would absolutely come back.

We paid $600 for what we were told was a wagu and ended up to be Cisco quality steak We thought per the photos that is was a farm to table. Frankly I have been sick after leaving the place. They placed this in cooked meat with pathetic un flavorful poor quality sides. No serving utensils. The knives could not cut the hard tough meat. Disgusting. My son left the food untouched. I forced myself as it was so expensive, I thought perhaps something’s is wrong with me. I asked for serving ustensile 3 times. The food was cold Don’t go

The Timber Room wasn't opened when we first visited Mountain Village in December of 2020. It's located within the Madeline hotel and they did a fantastic job with the layout and decor of this establishment. The Timber Room is definitely a great place to visit in Mountain Village if your looking for a higher end apres experience after a long day of skiing or hiking.

Loved the Timber Room & our meal/service was terrific. So we’re their cocktails & flat bread. Can’t wait to go bk & suggest reservations.

Thank you, Reuben!!! —- Absolutely incredible experience, I went here over the course of a week and Reuben made the occasion memorable for my time in Telluride. Reuben gave great recommendations for hikes, food, and most importantly, he makes very tasty cocktails!

We went specifically to hear a band play at Alibi so the drinks were not inexpensive, but beer was average price. Not a very large place, but adequate space and clean. They had a dance area, a long bar with many, over 20 bar stools, some cushy couches & chairs in the back to lounge in and play some free table games. Two bar tenders worked non stop to serve. We didn't eat there, so no comment.

Awesome Staff and good vibes!! There was a complaint about the back not being able to hear the music well, then I saw someone go make a small adjustment on the deck and it sounded absolutely fantastic!

Really enjoyed our visit and the cocktails. It’s a new bar and we stumbled upon it accidentally, and incidentally it was exactly what we were looking for. Great original beverages & delicious and strong for the price! We came back later for a band playing live music (that was great), but they honestly shouldn’t have been charging a $15 cover because it turned a lot of groups away so it was pretty empty. If we hadn’t been there earlier I wouldn’t have paid either and the band was good! They should reduce or remove the cover (at least during non peak season) because they’d likely make more money but overall it was a fun place to spend the night!

Place gets popping on the weekends as one of the few places to go dance w live music. Bands Dj’s and everything in between.

Exceptional cocktails and great service. The Tzatziki Martini worked very well-- it was delicious. As were all the clarified drinks.

Love this bar! Incredible atmosphere and great live music. Thankful that this place exists in a sea of generic, elevator-music filled, over-priced places. This and Wood Ear make our Telluride experiences legit. We’re locals that have moved back after being away and places like this make us appreciate our home town again. Thank you Alibi!

Great atmosphere and great DJ.

Rústico Ristorante is Avery outstanding Italian place to eat. The food is lovely the service is very friendly and the atmosphere is great. Overall a very awesome place to eat! Definitely recommend!

This is the best Italian food I've had since I was in Italy. The service was impeccable and truly warranted the accolades this establishment has earned. I really can't wait to come back for another visit. I had the Rigatoni Arrabbiata which was incredible. It had the perfect amount of spice. My wife had the ravioli which were so delicious and tender you could really tell they were made in house.

Went to celebrate my wife’s birthday and had a fantastic meal. We were very thankful that we seated in the cozy main dining area because the other areas looked rather sterile and uninviting. My wife’s fettuccine with creamy mushroom sauce was amazing. I had the spinach, ravioli special and it was good but not special. The house bread served with the meal was excellent. Service from Mateo (?) was friendly, helpful and attentive.

Great place to have a glass of wine or cocktails, food is outstanding and the service amazing! We ordered the tomahawk pork chop and pasta there.

I attended a buffet dinner party, and the food and staff were top-notch. The party was held on their outside patio and created a fun environment. I highly recommend this place for a special event.

Excellent. Had dinner here for my husband’s birthday and everything was delicious. Great bread for the table, great wine list. Sat outside with their patio heaters and it was perfect. Accommodating for lactose intolerance 🙂 I had mushroom risotto with no cheese and it was super delicious! Others ordered the Rustico spaghetti and mushroom fettuccine. Tiramisu for dessert! Would highly recommend.

Fabulous Italian restaurant in Telluride on Main Street with an excellent wine and cocktail menu.

I really liked the interior: warm lighting, cozy booths, as well as inviting “nooks” to be seated. The bar appeared an equally inviting space to belly-up to. The fries were fantastic, but the burgers left a bit to be desired. Had they been served at the medium we requested when ordering, perhaps they wouldn’t have been so dry. But, at the medium-well temps they were served, there wasn’t anything resembling juice or liquid or wet or… in any of the bites. Service wasn’t very attentive. Nice. Just not overly attentive. The soda had to be requested from another server as the food had arrived in-advance of hubs’ drink. Pretty sure it sat empty again for a bit before the server noticed. We also had to hang around upon finishing our meals waiting for the server to show up again so we could request our check. Again, nice people, just not overly attentive. My consideration is to the degree Floradora was busy (not very) staff was bored and lost track of us for hanging out with other staff members.

This was my first experience with Floradora Saloon, In Telluride, Colorado. I was hoping it was going to be great and got mildly good. For the price point I was extremely disappointed. I ordered in the middle of the day, on a Saturday and the truffle fries, looked like they came from a wrong order, cold but good flavor. They would have been delicious fresh, I do believe. I ordered the Duck Egg Rolls with really high expectations. Very cold --also-- seemed to be a pre-made batch, no crunch, kind of soggy, again good flavor over all. In the right setting, this would have been an outstanding meal, it just was not that way, this time, for me. I would still give this restaurant a chance if its also your first time. I didnt have a good "food" experience but the staff and service was great. Also including a picture of the up-to-date menu.

The moment we walked in this entire staff treated us with care and kindness! Just to mention a few we began meeting Zoe who was the friendliest greeter! Then, our Server Robben was professional, and fun giving us great recommendations! The tasty local bone in rib eyes were served hot as was the squash soup. We were celebrating and felt like Lindie the Host understood this going out of her way to make it a special night! The vibe of this historic Saloon is just cool and the reason I mainly come is, in my opinion, the view of the best Peaks in the world! My husband enjoys the inside atmosphere too so trade off and come two or three nights on your vacation! The street music was incredible too- acoustic guitar!!

I loved this place! The bartender, David, was amazing as well. The only decrease in stars was due to being out of the duck eggrolls and salmon at the start of the day. Seemed like the kitchen didn’t update David. The squash fries rocked! Otherwise drinks and food were stellar. We even went back again to have the eggrolls before we left. The Diablo chicken bowl is amazing. Try it!

Everything was AMAZING. The chicken sandwich on happy hour menu was phenomenal, the mac and cheese, the fries, the sweet potato chips..all great & the staff was so friendly

This was one of our first stops in town for dinner. The food was excellent. The atmosphere was great. And the service was good. I had a the cheesesteak sandwich and fries. It was top notch. The fries were seasoned and cooked well. The sandwich came with an au jus— an unexpected but delightful surprise. My wife had an Atomic Chicken salad which she ranted and raved about. While we were there the owner came by and told a story about the most famous honing pigeon. Clearly he is a charismatic guy. The staff were polite and attentive. It’s definitely worth the stop.

Steak asparagus, truffle fries, and a side salad was amazing! Steak entrée by far the best on the menu

Breakfast was so tasty, they have beakfast burritos, breakfast sandwiches. Steamies also had a coffee bar with iced coffee, hot coffee, hot cocoa and mochas! We got a dirty chai that was phenomenal. Opens pretty early and has cute outdoor seating.

On vacation and staying in Ouray. Visited Telluride and wanted a quick bite so stopped here. Throughout my colorado trip, i’ve had mediocre food with high prices and just ok food overall. However, this place is the highlight of my trip in terms of food. The fancy restaurants around town couldn’t cut it and this burger joint surpassed them in terms of food quality and pricing. I had the yeti burger and my date had the colossal with fries. Absolutely everything was delicious. And the prices were REASONABLE, not crazy like the other local restaurants. The service was great too with a good selection of sauces available and food options. I wish this kind of food quality was more common in this area. 10/10 recommend.

Sign is a lie. Not fresh at all. Bacon was freeze dried. Burger appeared frozen. Milkshake was icy no creamy. You are better off at any other place in town.

Absolutely best milkshake I’ve ever had in my entire life. Carmel espresso. Delicious. Went back 3x for lunch. Dinner. Milkshake during corvettes and colors. Thank you everyone for a great week A+++

We always enjoy stopping by Steamies for a delicious lunch or milkshake! The employees are helpful and friendly and the service is usually pretty quick. All the food I’ve ever had here has been delicious, but I especially like their burgers and fries. Also the fry sauces that they have available are great. Milkshakes here are also top notch. Overall I’d definitely recommend stopping in Steamies if you’re in town!

If you're looking for burgers, shakes, and craft sodas, then you'll love this place.

We had the Steamie burger with regular fries & the Yeti burger with sweet potato fries. They were good but really nothing to write home about. IMO, a little over priced (but it's understandable for the area). The young man at the counter was very pleasant - Best part about our visit.

Located within the Inn at Lost Creek, Siam's Talay Grille was a great little breakfast buffet spot for us in the mornings. We stayed at the Madeline next door but were able to visit here for their breakfast buffet that is free for guests of the Inn and 18 dollars per person if your not a guest. In any event this is a good spot to keep in mind as it can be difficult to get breakfast in the village if you get a late start to the morning. Talay has plenty of room and both the views from the deck and buffet were great. Service was good too!

We didn't have a reservation so we sat at a high top in the bar. Worst bar stools ever. So uncomfortable. Normally I wouldn't mention that but given it took FOREVER for our food to come out, the uncomfortable seats just made it worse. At one point my husband and I just stood at our table while waiting for the food, because the stools were so uncomfortable. When our food finally came out my shrimp was undercooked - it was partially translucent. I took one bite and couldn't eat it. The bartender offered to send it back but at that point we had waited so long I just wanted to get out of there. So I just ate the fried rice portion of my dish and that was it. My husband had a beef dish that was good, but it had too strong of a coconut flavor for my liking. They took 30% off our food for the long wait, so at least they tried to make up for it, and they did offer us dessert but we declined. The only good part of our experience was the bartender - he was great!

Excellent green curry with fried tofu and jasmine rice. Enjoyed sitting in the bar area which offers a few tables. The bartender was very accessible and attentive.

Decent thai food in moutain village. We were able to sit right down during the summer season. Staff was nice. They were out of most beer on the menu and cocktail and wine menu were pretty bad. Noodles were very overpriced ($30+ for drunken noodles). The food was actually better than I expected and I enjoyed it. Noodles were cooked well, sauce was good, chicken was cooked well. Weird part is there were carmelized onions on the pad see ew which is def strange and not traditional.

This place had amazing Thai food. Dumplings were awesome, noodles were awesome. Highly recommend the khao soi. The curry was amazing. A little light on the spicy side (it's at a ski resort), but I they give you a spice rack to spice it up.

This place is SO fantastic - we ate there two nights in a row during our recent visit to Telluride. Everything we ordered with delicious and the service was super friendly and helpful. A great experience!

Siam Talay in Mountain Village elevates Thai tasting menus with impeccably fresh, authentically prepared dishes—like perfectly seared scallops, flavorful curries, and inventive elk—set in a cozy yet elegant mountain‑sunset dining room, though service can be a bit leisurely during peak times.

I ate my average bacon cheeseburger here for lunch. Very average. Lots of tater tots!! My son ate his zesty buffalo wings. Nicely seasoned. There was no real server, just a bartender who brought out the items from the kitchen. Never saw or received any utensils.

Delicious Reuben and hand-cut fries! Buffalo wings were cooked to perfection 👌 Great service and atmosphere 👌 Definitely one of the highlights in Telluride!

Had the Friday burger and fries special for $10. That was a good value and the burger wasn't bad. The men's room was in bad shape, graffiti, holes in the wall and dirty, so I don't feel a 4 or above is warranted.

We went for lunch on July 5. They were extremely busy. One gal for ordering, preparing drinks and delivering food. Saw her take a Tequila shot with a customer while working. The French fries were COLD. Two ketchup bottles were empty. A hot sauce bottle on outside deck had mold in it! I ordered a cheeseburger slider and it was barely edible. My order was in the same basket as my sister’s. Two different orders/purchase's You won’t see us again!. Also water cooler was empty even after I told the cooks. Very disappointed!

Best value for money in town. Great service, nice deck. Ladies night 1/2 off?? In there like swimwear.

Our favorite place in Telluride! One of those small town pub feels. Very awesome staff each time we went! One of the best southern fried chicken sandwich I’ve ever had. Great prices as well!

I ate there on Taco Tuesday and the food was great and inexpensive. This is the local favorite for Telluride residents so that should tell you something. Parking is free after 6:00 pm so keep that in mind

Weirdest place ever. You can tell by the other reviews here and I have to agree this is truly the Alpinist and the Ghost. The experience was peculiar to say the least… upon coming in no one helped us until we asked them where to sit. Then about half way through our dinner they asked us for the name on our reservation… not sure why that matters halfway through the meal but okay. Also the place was literally empty so not sure why we even needed a reservation. As for the servers, they were physically present but aloof — basically I don’t know if they knew they existed. As for the food… most mediocre fondue ever! Not to mention they were also out of half of the sides and cheeses. Then for the dessert they were also out of strawberries. They served us chocolate fondue with pound cake and cookies which they literally opened out of a plastic wrap right next to us and put on the plate. Not to say it was inedible but they charge you some very steep prices considering the quality of the food and service. The restaurant as a whole was a weird vibe. They were blasting the strangest music ever. Bathroom is a mess with a bucket in the middle of the floor catching the leaks from the ceiling. Only highlight is that my family cannot stop laughing about this comedy of errors. Can’t forget that two days later they call us and say they have an open tab and demand we pay. We paid the night of the dinner and trust we were not going to pay again for this. Just when we thought we escaped the ghost haunted us again.

I recently visited this fondue restaurant, and I must say it was a disappointing experience. First of all, the prices were outrageously high for what they offered. You would expect a premium experience for such costs, but that was far from the case. The ambiance was terrible, with holes in the ceiling that made the place look run-down and neglected. It really took away from any potential enjoyment of the meal. To top it off, the service was incredibly slow. We waited ages for our food, and when it finally arrived, it wasn't even worth the wait. Overall, I wouldn't recommend this place to anyone. Save your money and find somewhere better to dine.

When we got there we had to find our table ourselves. When we ordered our drinks we had to go to the bar and get them. My daughter even had to go to the bar to get water! They were not coming to the table to check on us except for when we ordered food. My daughter asked for hot chocolate and the waiter said that they didn’t have that even though it was on the menu. I also asked for Prosecco and they also said they didn’t have that but there was a bottle of it in the bar. Apparently they started kicking people out of the restaurant because they allegedly couldn’t serve them. We were a party of 13 with 5 children and they took an extremely long time to get our food, it took more then an hour and a half for our fondue and salads to come (the salads had nothing cooked in them). They brought out one dish at a time for a party of 13. After we got our food we were eating for a little bit until the fire alarm went off and there was only one exit which was a very narrow staircase. We were outside for about half an hour while the fire alarm was still going off for a little smoke in the kitchen and our party of 13 was standing outside. One person from our party of 13 went inside the restaurant after we were told there was no fire and the people working there told us it’s all of the staffs first day with no manager present.

The most bizarrely bad restaurant experience I've had in my life. Somehow it was the first day for everyone there (seems to be a re-occurring theme in other reviews) and nobody was trained. We were told to get our own drinks from the bar. Food came either incredibly slowly or not at all. There is no way this place would survive anywhere but a tourist town with a fresh supply of new customers who don't know any better. Avoid at all costs.

Beyond disappointing experience here with my group of 10. Several things were greatly missed. The service was sub par, the ceiling had multiple leaks with buckets set throughout the restaurant and bathroom, they were completely out of beer, the cocktails weren’t great. The fondue is overpriced considering all you get is seasoned ciabatta and apples, which weren’t even cut evenly. The chocolate fondue came with old Strawberries. The ambience was weird and quiet with music playing on and off. I’m very disappointed that we wasted our group dinner night on this place, I would avoid at all costs.

We have come here for the last three years and this meal was the absolute worse. The place smelled like body odor. We waited one hour for drinks. My kids ordered Shirley Temples and we had to send them back multiple times because they weren’t made correctly. The food was mediocre and some of the filet tasted like Salmon. We were never even asked how we wanted our meat cooked. The quality has gone down and service was terrible. The prices are so high but after all this is Telluride. The building where restaurant sits is falling apart as there are multiple leaks in the roof. I had to use coffee filters to dry my hands from bathroom. I am not sure how health inspector has not closed this place down.

My first impression of the Alpinist and the Ghost was of its (rather narrow) entry hallway. This was because, while we had a reservation for 7:30 PM, we were not seated until more than an hour later. The group next to us, who also had a reservation and were forced to wait nearly an hour, could not fit into the hallway with us. Once we were finally seated, we found that, implausibly, the dining room itself was even smaller than the hallway. The décor of our room (there were two in the restaurant) could best be described as effortless, in the sense that clearly, zero effort was put into it. It was seemingly also used for storage; its corners were filled with extra chairs, extra fondue machines, extra coat hangers. The room was so cramped that our waiters physically could not serve the people seated at the back half of our table. Notice the plural use of “waiters”—this is because there were three kind but extraordinarily confused waiters working our table tonight, all three of whom arrived at our table at different times to repeatedly offer us menus, food, and the check in a kind of Groundhog-day-like cycle. The waiters’ confusion extended to the menu, too; when we ordered the salmon salad, we were told confidently that the salmon salad was not on the menu. When we showed our waitress that the salmon salad was indeed on the menu, she remained clearly unconvinced, but acquiesced: “Okay, I’ll put it down, then.” After an extensive wait time, we were served a plain salad instead. After a string of mishaps—dishes ordered but forgotten, incorrect dishes served and wait times that rivaled the hour it took us to even get seated, our correct food finally arrived. It was at this point that we realized how misleading the menu really was: an over-70-dollar fondue only included bread, apples, and cheese. You had to pay an extra $56 for a side of meat. The other dishes were similarly sparse and incredibly mediocre, especially for their offensively inflated prices. By the time our second waiter offered us the check for the second time, we were tired, unsatisfied, and ready to leave. It took a mysteriously long time for our credit card to be swiped (upwards of 15 minutes) even though the restaurant was otherwise completely empty. This allowed us plenty of time to reflect on our dining experience, which we couldn’t help but laugh at, if only because it seemed like a heavy-handed parody of what a bad restaurant should be. In conclusion: within the Alpinist and the Ghost, laws of time, space, and civility were obsolete. Only Murphy’s Law remained: anything that could go wrong, invariably did go wrong. Joking aside, though, the meal was close to $80 a head (we didn’t drink; we should have), no efforts were made to truly apologize for how late we were seated despite our 7:30P reservation nor for the string of mistakes made. The best we got was “it’s crowded” and “this is out of our control”. The other family waiting in the hallway next to us included an older woman who clearly had Parkinsons and had been waiting close to 40 minutes by the time we started chatting (commiserating) together. Our family goes on a ski vacation once a year. We work hard all year to have a nice vacation, and nice meals on our vacation. To say our experience was mediocre is an overstatement; that the dinner was almost $400 adds insult to injury

We had a great experience dining here. We didn’t have reservations so we sat upstairs in the first-come-first-serve section. They have an extensive cocktail menu. We ordered the Brussels sprouts then the brisket and pork belly rice plates. Both were delicious. I would highly recommend this place.

After a recent trip to Texas, Texas/Asian fusion is one of my favorite cuisines and I was impressed to find this spot in Telluride. My husband and I shared: - Grilled Brisket Nigiri - Buttermilk Chicken Rice Bowl - Pork on Pork Ramen - Raw Berry Bar All of the savory items were fantastic. The nigiri and rice bowl were my favorites. The chicken was so crispy and I loved the sauce. The ramen was also very good. I loved the BBQ twist on it. I personally didn't love the raw berry bar. I was hoping for more passion fruit flavor, but it wasn't as flavorful as passion fruit typically is. My only complaint is that the service was very bad. We were the only ones there and the waiter was ignoring us watching TV. If I'm in Telluride for dinner again, I would absolutely come back here.

This was a nice treat for dinner after driving, hiking, and shopping all day. Many of the restaurants were closed since we're here between tourist seasons. But that was fine because we wanted ramen as soon as we saw their menu. My girlfriend is vegetarian, so the Mushroom ramen was perfect. I had the Pork on Pork ramen with pulled pork and pork belly. A superb broth with an egg and many good veggies. We also had the Buffalo Cauliflower for a starter which was also excellent. Our server Danielle was the only one on duty in the bar, yet she was so friendly and efficient. Unfortunately we got so full that we couldn't have one of the 3 enticing dessert options. Maybe next time.

How does this not have 5 starts?! First of all our server Danielle was knowledgeable and so kind! She told us about everything that goes into making their delicious brisket and told us it’s smoked for 12 hours! They had an incredible mocktail menu with adaptogens and delicious flavors. We tried the buffalo cauliflower with coconut ranch and the brisket ramen. 10/10 must try if you are in Telluride for Dinner! Atmosphere was also great 👍

Genuinely enjoyed every bit of this dining experience!! Food was 😋 perfect! Chicken Ban Mhi, brisket and pork belly Ramen, And a Jasmine rice dish with Peruvian, sweet peppers and barbecue tofu. 10 out of 10. This was at the upstairs bar area which was so nice! Love the feel of everything. Impressive selection for upstairs bar. Jeff, our bartender was attentive & worthy! Took the Asian slaw salad home with blackened shrimp and the red pepper vinaigrette was insanely unique! Cashew cabbage as a side with the sandwich was my least favorite. Not flavorful and too much of everything. Underwhelming. Last but not least, I had the waffle sweet potato fries and they were to die for. Quite possibly the best I've ever had in a sweet potato fry!!!! Check this spot out! I'm looking forward to trying everything.

What a cool little place we stumbled upon. We didn’t have a reservation but they were able to accommodate us. Food was excellent and drinks were unique. Loved the fusion concept, highly recommend!

All great things here. We got the brisket Raman and the pork rice dish. And just wow. My mouth is watering thinking of all those flavors. It’s was a great meal! And the waitress was super friendly. The interior design is special too. A Great food stop for sure. Drinks at happy hour were wonderful also.

We shared several dishes among three people, and every plate was executed perfectly. The Caviar Eggs, Octopus Española, and Hamachi were absolute standouts—bold, balanced, and beautifully plated. The quality of ingredients and attention to detail in preparation really came through across the entire meal. The venue itself is clean, modern, and thoughtfully designed—elevated but still welcoming. While the service wasn’t quite on par with the food—somewhat inattentive and not especially warm—it didn’t take away from the overall experience. Definitely worth a visit if you’re in Telluride and looking for a refined yet creative culinary experience.

Walked in for dinner and was able to get seated quickly. It was a bit noisy due to a party behind us having a great time but was completely different after they left. We had the hamachi, burrata & octopus to start (all were fantastic, octopus was cooked well). We split salmon for entree (melt in your mouth) and had tres leches for dessert. Best meal we’ve had in telluride.

Small intimate setting with good ambience. Quality food and extensive wine list. Staff is randomly dressed and doesn’t appear to serve any specific table - unusual but makes for good service. A bit pricey and was surprised to see an additional service charge titled “employee health.“ Overall a good experience.

Delicious food, unique presentation, lovely outdoor ambiance. A fabulous dinner!

A little pricey but good service and lots of options to share or try lots of small plates. The corn and crab risotto was fantastic- just the right amount of sweet and texture. The salmon really embraces the citrus poached flavor.

I attended a private event here and was blown away. The food and drinks were absolutely amazing, but the real highlight was the staff. They were professional, friendly, and went above and beyond to make sure everything was perfect. Highly recommend!

My husband and I rented out Side Work for our wedding reception dinner. It was the best decision we made! Maury made planning of the event so easy, which was a dream. The service was unreal! Hunter, Josh, and Will were amazing! The dining experience was so intimate and perfect for any occasion. All their cocktails especially the espresso martinis were amazing. As for the food, the filet, hamachi crudo, and spinach and goat cheese empanadas were UNREAL! This place is such a hidden gem of Telluride and I can’t wait to go back!

Everyone was tired so we decided to have dinner at the hotel. It couldn’t have been better. We were at a cozy table near the fireplace. We had Chelsea who was our server and she was bubbly, attentive and very sweet. She helped us select a nice bottle of wine to kick off things off. We all started with either the Tomato or Butternut squash soup and everyone said both soups were outstanding (we’re all from New York City and a critical crowd) . Our main entrees were also very tasty. In the end the 6 of us couldn’t imagine having gone out into town and and been at a noisy, crowded restaurant after a long day of skiing. This was a perfect evening!

We ate here twice for breakfast and dinner. Dinner the first night my wife and I had the Aztec soup. This was an awesome tortilla soup that was filling and satisfying. The chef can adjust the heat according to your taste. On the dinner we had the ribeye steak and the bone in pork chop. Both entrees had an excellent presentation with sauteed vegetables surrounding the meat. The ribeye steak was placed plated with drizzled balsamic vinegar and wilted spinach. For breakfast, we had eggs benedict and french toast. The french toast was thin, sliced french baguette on a plate with drizzled raspberry sauce and two pieces of crispy bacon. All the meals we had are as good as any restaurant we have had in Telluride. For the dog lovers there is a table and chairs in the lobby of the Hotel Telluride that the restaurant staff will bring your food to. The staff is friendly and attentive.

During Telluride Fire Festival last December, we had diner here twice. So fantastic! The food is delicious and the service is wonderful.

This restaurant is located in the lobby of the hotel. While cozy it was a bit surprising the restaurant was not separate. Service was good. Food was fine.

Incredible experience. EXCELLENT service and the food was very high quality

Pretty solid. That pesto sawse, tho. Get that chicken pesto, ask for more bread, sop it all up. Ow! NY steak was pretty good.

Amazing trout dinners expertly prepared by Chefs Arturo and Bud. Served with pappardelle Alfredo, carrots and garnished with micro greens. Very pleasant bistro atmosphere with a rustic Colorado flair. Nice attentive service.

Great place to hang out. The Old Fashioned was spot on. They have good happy hour specials from 3-6:00.

This was the first restaurant we ate at when we arrived in Mountain Village/Telluride, CO. The guy at the counter was very friendly and knowledgeable about the menu. He suggested food items for my wife and she chose a chicken wrap, I believe. I ordered the cup of chili and it was delicious. Cool view from the table as Mountain Village center is beautiful. Beautiful buildings and architecture.

We didn’t actually eat here—and that’s telling in itself. The setup is a mess for a restaurant. You stand in one line to order food, then another line to order from the bar. After that, you’re left to hunt for a table and hope you can find a spot before your food gets cold. It feels like a gamble, not a dining experience. On top of that, why can’t I order both food and drinks from the same person? Instead, it’s double the waiting and double the hassle. And then, just to add insult to inconvenience, they prompt you for a tip while ordering. A tip…for what exactly? Handing me my food? Making me stand in line twice? Finding my own table? We decided to skip the chaos and went to Tomboy Tavern instead. I’d recommend the reader do the same.

Great service, GREAT burgers(grass fed), and absolutely incredible Fat Washed Whiskey! A locally sourced, grass fed, steak fat - with incredible whiskey - are ya kidding me! Don’t forget the beautiful design and fur!

Tracks is great for hanging out mixing and mingling local wildcards and tourist riffraff. Jeremy a chill Quick bartender. Coffee, ice cream, sandwiches snacks. Chips Izzi etc. Clean tables indoor and outdoor. Close to live music in the plaza. It's like mountain village version of "Cheers".

We loved this place!! The food is great and the customer service is amazing, especially from a really professional and sweet guy named Zach, who didnt only provided us with exceptional service but recommended food which we loved and came for more the next day. The ice cream is the best cream I've ever tasted, the chili was super tasty, the hot chocolate was delicious and the nachos were so good I can wait to comeback and make my while family try them!! We'll definitely be back :)

Very tasty food, though a bit expensive. I had the chicken teriyaki bowl and it was fabulous. The veggies were cooked well and the chicken was very tender. We also had the chicken noodle soup and it was amazing! Definitely a good spot to grab a quick and tasty lunch

I came across this spot on Google Maps and thought, let’s give it a try. It’s a chill, small restaurant with a laid-back vibe and a few outdoor tables. You order at the counter, and they bring the food out to you. We got the tin can nachos and the fish tacos. The food came out fast, and the tin can nachos had a fun, eye catching presentation. The person who brought it over was super friendly, which added to the experience. As for the food both dishes were excellent. The nachos were flavorful and satisfying, and the fish tacos were incredibly fresh and packed with bold, well-balanced spices. Their high Google rating is well deserved. Definitely a place worth checking out—you won’t be disappointed.

Great vibe. Nice tequila bar. Excellent location. Food was good but in my option needed some refinement. I just don’t love large chunks of zucchini but maybe that’s personal preference. Nice hot sauce collection. Wish the vegan nachos had more chips to sauce ratio. But overall can’t complain and would dine here again even if not my first choice. Immaculate vibe

I really enjoyed the tacos here and how they are unique! The staff was really friendly. We enjoyed eating our tacos outside with wonderful weather and enjoying the environment.

I have eaten all over every state and even out of the country. This is the best quality food for what we’re eating I’ve ever had! I had the beef nachos and the taco nachos. Absolutely amazing! The shrimp tacos were the best ever! Amazing service don’t miss out on eating here.

Was really good tacos and some unique flavors. Loved the green chile queso! We got the carne asada, shrimp taco, biria, & duck.

Uno Dos Tres Tacos & Tequila is THAT GIRL!! We are so incredibly thankful to this establishment for working with us as we held an intimate ceremony in Telluride. During the planning process we reached out and the owner called us and openly discussed all our options: private event, catering, or even simply ordering to-go, and we appreciated the transparency and respect for our budget goals. We opted for to-go and everything was prepped perfectly, allowing for an easy transition that we could send a family member to pick up the paid and tipped order. Everyone loved the tacos!! We (bride & groom) loved it so much we came back the next day to sample more of the menu. I cannot recommend enough, the staff was kind to us, the food was prepared well, and the guests were happy!

Great tasting taco shop. À la cart menu with lots to choose from. Very nice place to sit outside on a small patio on a summer evening. Margarita was decent although we did not have the house Margarita. Chips and guacamole had a very small serving of guacamole. We still enjoyed the food and I would recommend.

There should be a 0 star option. Everytime I go here I'm disappointed. Either My drink doesn't taste right or the employees are just rude. No smile. No what can I get you. Nothing.

Not a place I would recommend if you are trying to use stars or an ongoing promotion as apparently they are not Starbucks-starbucks was what I was told! No restrooms inside but there is a public restroom around the block if you need one. I would rather try the local cafe instead of dealing with all these limitations!

Jamie the batista was having a rough day. Poor attitude and was very confrontational when asked to remake drink.

Be warned this Starbucks does not participate in the rewards program or most offers made by official Starbucks. You can earn rewards but you cannot spend the rewards here. I assumed the whole point of Starbucks was selling a consistent product and experience but this store does not participate. Might as well spend your money at a local coffee shop.

Don't know what happened but not great coffee or service....used to be great and better than most Starbucks... especially on service with the consistency expected. Laura was awesome but have not seen her lately and wish she was still my barista.

To be honest it was a amazing coffee but the service was horrible I have never seen a Starbucks that treats you disrespectfully only one teenager named Julian was a gentleman he asked how my day was going and offered me everything I asked for I have not seen him in a long time

Best Starbucks in Mountain Village hands down! Great staff. Always enjoy coming in when visiting.

Best bar in Telluride! We had an incredible time at this spot, but Kyle absolutely made the night. Not only was every drink on point, but he brought the perfect mix of personality, humor, and professionalism. You can tell he loves what he does. If you’re in town, grab a seat at the bar and ask for Kyle

This is a really cool bar with great drinks. I loved the art work and my husband said it was the best smoked old fashioned he's ever had.

Down to earth, great community, cocktail chemistry is dialed in and on point. Dog friendly as well. Good peoples

So good I had dreams about it! Must try the old fashion, stop and give it a shot you won’t be disappointed! 😋

Chris and Mitch were the ideal hosts offering us an cool, intimate bar atmosphere. The drinks are creative and delicious! The topped off a great Telluride day! Check out Lumi posing!

Absolutely loved it here. Had the smoke em if you got em old fashioned and my wife had the maverick. The staff was really friendly and the ambiance could not be beat. Both drinks were amazing and the artwork really made this place special. Will definitely stop in again next time we're in Telluride.

Phenomenal drinks in a chill atmosphere.
