Best Historic Restaurants in Telluride

The Thanksgivng dinner we ate tonight was prepared from scratch and was truly delicious. I usually don’t like buffets as the food is often cold and mass prepared. But this food was fresh, served hot and was just like a buffet at a friends’ home, although I estimate they served several hundred people.

The service and ambiance were top-notch and by far the reason I would go again. Traverse was a fantastic waiter and made our anniversary special! My wife had the filet mignon, and I had the New York strip. We both thought our steaks were great, and the grilled garlic cloves paired nicely. Additionally, I highly recommend you get the bread as a starter. The bread and the butter were sensational.

Amazing food, drinks, and service! We enjoyed the elk and duck, both were fabulous and paired with delicious wine by recommendation of sommelier.

Food was good but a bit overly fussy. We enjoyed scallops, poullet, the salad and croque madam which had a too-rich sauce. All desserts were outstanding: mousse, profiteroles and a lemon curd tart. Champagne was wonderful. Fixed price menu is constraining. Would prefer ala carte options.
