My fiancee and I ate here before a magic show. Carolina was our server and she did an incredible job, being knowledgeable and informative while also remaining personable and approachable. She really helped guide us into understanding the cuisine more thoroughly throughout the evening. We enjoyed her company so much we are going to ask for her to serve us again when we revisit. The food was delightful and delicious. We chose the cheese plate and skewered pork belly as our first course. The cheese plate had a nice balance and the pork belly was marbled, tender, and juicy. We added a pear salad and calamari shortly after the first course arrived. The pear salad was light and refreshing. The calamari order was massive and could have been shared between more than two people. Our main course was the elk tenderloin which was cooked perfectly. For dessert we shared the peach cobbler and it was to die for. All and all would definitely recommend to family and friends, a must visit in Telluride.

If you find yourself with plans to visit Telluride, make a reservation here. Gorgeous view and delicious food. We found this place looking for vegan dinner options, and the menu did not disappoint. It gets a bit chilly on the patio but the heaters help. Stick it out for the sunset and then grab a drink at the bar inside!

Our waiter Robin was 10/10. Absolutely fantastic. The most stunning views I have ever seen. The food was extremely fresh and beautifully presented. We shared the salmon crudo, caesar salad with grilled shrimp, and the elk tenderloin. They were kind enough to split the elk tenderloin in the kitchen on 2 separate plates which was awesome.

Making a reservation that coincides with sunset is a must! Amazing views. The food was excellent and our server was enthusiastic and knowledgeable. It was a great dining experience. Definitely pricey, but worth the money on a visit to a place like Telluride.

Elizabeth was AMAZING! She made the night so special. Tonight my husband and I are in Telluride for my 30th birthday and she made the night so wonderful. The views were amazing, sunset over the golf course and mountains. We had great cocktails. I had the elk tenderloin and my husband had the rainbow trout both were amazing. We live in Colorado and I love elk but it’s hard to find. The elk here was amazing and his trout was very good. Elizabeth made the evening by being so wonderful, welcoming and so nice. She went the extra mile to ensure it was a great birthday. Thank you. 10/10 recommend!

Outstanding. We celebrated with an excellent dinner on the patio overlooking the sunset. Amazing view of the mountains, golf course, gondola and jets flying in. We got there early on a saturday and we’re originally seating inside at the bar but the host upgraded us to the patio. Great options for the vegan. The tables were distanced and felt safe during Covid. Feel so lucky to have enjoyed the evening there!

Me and my wife went there for dinner on one of the nights of our 5th anniversary trip. The waiters were nice, food was good and the views were fantastic. There was great service and it was not very busy but was in a very nice area. P.S. it was funny because the way we were dressed they kept asking if we were part of a wedding that was going on floor below us.

This was by far one of the most memorable dining experiences that I have had. We chose this restaurant to celebrate my 35th birthday and it did not disappoint. We are Houstonians, so we have access to some of the most unique dining experiences. Mylie was an amazing server, the atmosphere was breathtaking and the food was delicious. Valet parking is really the only option if you drive into Mountain Village and parking is limited in Telluride. But definitely worth the money!
