Best Restaurants for Special Occasions in Copper

I am so happy we gave Blue River Bistro a try. I had heard the cocktails were winners, but, wow, the food we had was the best of the trip!! The bison short ribs took first, followed closely by the salmon. My son’s Beef Wellington was done to perfection! The harvest salad was also delicious. Looking forward to a return trip when we return to Breck in the future!

Legends team was outstanding in every way. Each team member went above and beyond to make her experience special. We will definitely return at every opportunity.

We arrived for our reservation and we were immediately seated in the cutest window nook. My husband had a Dunkel and I had a glass of Prosecco- loved the glassware. Our family of four split two orders of cheese fondue, a pretzel, and bratwurst. It was delicious! One order of cheese fondue would have been enough for us. Service was wonderful! Highly recommend this iconic spot, it’s worth the hype.

As always, Aurum never disappoints! We love all the happy hour items and the great drinks. Also, they have some of the best waitstaff in Summit County. The manager is always on hand and available to help with anything. We will always go back.

This is our favorite Japanese restaurant in the world. Highly recommend all of these items. It is a perfect balance of cold and warm and the progression is great. Yellowtail jalapeño Oysters Nobu salsa Cucumber Sunomono salad Miso soup Black cod lettuce cups Octopus, King Crab and Yellowtail nigiri sushi Grilled cauliflower with jalapeño Miyazaki Wagyu beef Tuesday we just walked in and sat at the bar. You need to start lining up if you walk in at 4:30 and you either get last minute cancelled tables, bar, or sushi bar. Otherwise you have to wait for the second turn. For reservations on Christmas we were thankfully in Paris so the timezone was manageable, because reservations open up at midnight of the timezone the restaurant is in. Likely to sell out quickly on the weekends or peak season. Hope this helps!
