Reviews on American food in Vail, Colorado, United States. North America's biggest and most popular ski resort, Vail is an alpine village in the heart of the Rocky Mountains. Long a favorite of serious skiers and jet setting celebrities, Vail now also draws a younger, hipper snowboarding crowd. Skiing is king at Vail Mountain and the Blue Sky Basin, but the area's vast splendor is perfect for hiking, biking, snowmobiling or scenery-gazing at any time of the year.

Make dining fun again. Four Seasons Resort Vail has reinvented Flame Restaurant with inventive twists on classic steakhouse favorites. Start off by tempting your palate with elk corndogs and a duo of dipping sauces, indulgent sides, such as truffled comte
Ate at this restaurant several times on my recent stay at the Four Seasons hotel. Everything was top notch as expected. There is plenty of seating the space and the staff is quick and courteous. I highly recommend the Belgian waffles. For dinner appetizers I recommend the Rocky Mountain Elk Corn Dogs. If you have an open budget the 40oz porterhouse wagyu was to die for. If youâre on a budget the filet mignon and the SRF Wagyu Flat Iron are great cuts. The hidden gem is the Maine Lobster Mashed Potatoes. Overall you get your moneys worth here.

Moe's Original BBQ is a Southern soul food revival with food prepared fresh daily with recipes passed down for generations. Dine in, take out and catering available for parties and events.
Wanted something quick that wouldn't break the bank for a family of 4. This was an easy walk from the Marriott. We got there at about 5:40, and were lucky to get a table--it was packed by the time we left at 6:30. Had the pulled pork platter with 2 sides--baked beans and cole slaw, and a piece of cornbread. All were good, and it came with a drink--great value for $12, especially in Vail. Cozy place with a little bar, but not a ton of seating indoors. Would definitely go again!

Reopening June 20th for Summer dining! Game Creek Restaurant is located at 10,300 feet, at the top of Vail Mountain. Enjoy a gondola ride and cozy snow cat ride or shuttle in the summer to an elegant European chalet, where the ambiance is charming and th
This time it was riding in the cab of the snowcat AND the bravery of the chef in making a dessert that delivered incredible chocolate flavour and texture - BUT that was not sweet.It's just so easy to chuck lots of sweet/salt/fat into everything to cater to the tourist palate and so nice when someone has the fortitude to try and make special food instead.I do wish they'd put Elk on the menu through the season as this was my second visit where it wasn't available. Also, an amazing lobster bisque we had last time had been kind of downgraded, now delivering a hint of lobster and a whole lot of butternut - way less special (and I guess someone had put the bite on chef to up profit yield).I think Game Creek delivers some of the best value in Vail and I wish they'd put the Prix Fixe price up 10% rather than cut corners. Maybe I need to try the Chef Special menu next time as he/she is to be trusted when the accountants don't prevail!

Voted #1 in Colorado by Zagat Survey, Sweet Basil has been a must for travelers and locals alike since 1977. The cuisine is creative contemporary American utilizing many cultural influences from around the world. Located in the heart of Vail Village, the
The chef knows how to prepare a plate that provides multiple tastes. I ordered the smoked salmon and it was served on a bed of swirled tomatoes, corn, avocado, diced tomatoes, a sweet sauce and I believe diced almond seeds. The taste of all of these combined was fantastic. Everything on the menu seemed to have the same type of experience. Staff was attentive and described each entree and gave their opinion on what others had experienced. Third time here and as great as before!

Established in 2002, The Westside Cafe quickly became a local's favorite. 11 Years later, The Westside Cafe has won numerous awards and accolades for their consistently great food & service. Enjoy breakfast, lunch or dinner in a relaxed, olde Colorado the
This place used to be our favorite but the quality has gone down. Bloody Mary great as usual. My husband's eggs were cold and his french toast was hard as a rock and dry. They did give him new french toast which was soft the second time around and they comped it on the bill which we appreciated. My eggs benedict were okay, what I noticed the most was the copious amounts of grease in my whole meal! The english muffin appeared to be toasted a bit too hard but the amount of butter and oil on it was just not necessary. The hash browns were also drenched in oil. I felt like I needed a cleanse after eating. The ham was a bit thick and hard to cut. The day before I had the same dish at Northside in Avon so that was hard to stand up to, the best I've had! I think the atmosphere here needs some real updating - a farm fresh decor might liven it up. It feels old and dark and not very clean inside so luckily we were able to get a table outside. Sorry for the review but it's a bit overrated right now in our opinion.arvcolorado..so glad you enjoyed our awesome bloody-and thank you for the feedback-just helps us get better!! we have discussed all your food concerns with our kitchen and are actually planning a fall re-fresh of our interior!! hope you return and checkout our positive changes!! ty!!

From the creators of the legendary Sweet Basil in Vail Colorado, comes a fresh, innovative new restaurant. Aptly named Mountain Standard, this rustic and relaxed tavern aims to set a new standard in the Vail valley by using an ancient form of cooking.The
Mountain Standard has become one of our go-to spots whenever we are in Vail. We're grateful that it stays open in the off-season, when a lot of retailers and restaurants are closed. Everything here is great, from simple salads, to burgers, to the scallops that were on special during our latest trip. Highly recommend this spot!!

With a backdrop of floor-to-ceiling windows displaying uninterrupted mountain views and an expansive patio illuminated by firepits year round, The Remedy is the ideal destination in Vail to unwind, socialize and imbibe. The provocative bar program will se
All the food was phenomenal. The prices are quite high, but I'd say it's worth it once in a while! Also, it's Vail. Anyway, this place is famous for its hot chocolate, which is completely warranted, but the other food was got was great too. We had some yummy sweet potato things, to die for macaroni and cheese, and I had a good salad. The hot chocolate was brought with a production worthy of video taping. (See my photo caption.) I'm not giving a rating of 5 only because I wish there was more a nod to healthy selections, but based on taste alone, they deserve a 5+.

Vail's Legendary Breakfast Spot! The Diner specializes in traditional favorites and regional specialties using family recipes and the freshest locally sourced ingredients. Come by and try the house specialty German Pancake, a sweet crepe, homemade biscuit
Went here for our last day in Vail. We went for breakfast and the wait was about 30 minutes. This is a breakfast and lunch location and can see that wait times could vary. Loved the fact that they would not seat until all guests were there. The restaurant is owned and run by Chef Little and his wife. A great team that made sure all pieces of the morning were under control. The menu was unique and wished I could go back and try other dishes. Our breakfast was very good; the scramble eggs not under or over cooked, the pancake was the best I have ever had (the chef kept his secret ingredient secret) and nothing tasted like a "greasy diner". Loved it and will be back next year.

Open table 2011, diners choice most notable wine list, top 50
Excellent meal with exemplary customer service. From the host to the server and bussers the service experience was worked to perfection. Recommendations on chef specials, continued attentive service and even wheeling over a portable heater for our chilly outdoor experience. I canât say enough great things and I havenât even started talking about the food.....WOW!I ordered a couple of chef specials; the grilled peach palisades salad and the lingcod fish with white beans. Both were remarkable! The warm peach from the grill gently melted the point Reyes blue cheese into a heavenly combination with the bacon creating a magical moment to start our meal. The fish was cooked to perfection; crispy crust with a flaky and moist center. The white beans in amatriciana sauce absolutely sent me into a blissful moment. I could literally make a pot of those beans (wish I had the recipe) sit down to watch football and make a meal out of those unctuous freaking beans! Iâm serious! My wife took 1 bite (I was feeling generous) and she replied, âwow..I want your mealâ. Now thatâs not taking anything away from her flat iron steak she ordered, she loved it, Iâm just saying that those magical beans were ridiculous. Get the point? We loved the restaurant, the food, the staff and service along with the incredible Colorado atmosphere. Go have dinner here. Youâll be glad you did! Can I humbly beg for the bean recipe?
