Incredible views. Food was pretty good although I found the whole menu to be a bit too salty. Some of the portions were too small and overall too expensive. To start the amuse were cute fun bites. The bread and butter was absolutely delicious. The white asparagus was yummy but I found the whole dish to be kind of dry and needed a knife. Next the halibut was a yummy dish. Cooked perfectly. Found this dish to be a bit too salty and small. The quail was the most memorable dish. Cooked extremely well. Could've used more sauce and I found it extremely difficult and messy to eat with the plate it was on. The lamb was tender and very flavorful. Could've used more sauce. The panna cotta was aromatic and very good. Could've been deeper. The small desserts were very cute and yummy. The caramel was my favorite. Found the other two too small. The Paris Brest was light and super yummy. There could've been more filling. Pastry was perfect. Prosecco was nice and a good pour. The red wine pour was too small for price. Overall service was good but felt overbearing with the amount of servers standing and walking around. Valet was nice service. Outside area was beautiful. My mom tripped down the stairs though. Needs to be lit better at night, even for younger eyes it was too dim. Great experience for a special occasion. Would appreciate bigger portions especially for price. read more

Service - 5/5 Ambiance - 5/5 Food 3.7/5 Flagstaff House has been on my list for a while now, and finally made a visit for a special occasion. The servers are incredible - they look like paid actors with their impeccable server etiquette and the fact that they were always smiling lol. But jokes aside I was highly impressed with the service and professionalism. Ambiance was unbeatable. I don't think there's a bad seat in this restaurant. The tables overlook Boulder and there are floor to ceiling windows almost everywhere. The lighting was so purposeful, we even watched a server set up a table and get a ladder to make sure the lighting hit the table just right - love the commitment! The food was good but we weren't blown away. However, it was still very much enjoyable, especially combined with the service and ambiance as mentioned above. One notable mention is the focaccia they bring you before the courses. I'm still thinking about how tasty it was. Overall we enjoyed our time and I'm happy to cross this spot off my list! read more

Beautiful views and cozy environment. We had drinks at the bar with charcuterie board and a cheese board. Food was delicious. Bloody Mary was tasty. Sat by a fireplace on a rainy evening. My coat was checked into a closet that warmed. Valet parking and reservations are two of my favorite things. Our server was fabulous. Cleanest public bathroom I have ever visited. This is a classy place. We took some pictures from the deck when the rain cleared. Just an awesome experience. read more

I love Flagstaff House. Exceptional professional friendly staff. The cuisine is delicious and beautifully served. The setting is magical. Perfect for a special evening, birthday or just a wonderful treat. I have been to Flagstaff House many times and enjoyed it. Highly recommend Flagstaff House. The staff is very attentive. This morning, I was commenting that whoever hires the staff is doing a superb job. Seriously, every one is perfect. I also appreciated the fact that we were not rushed. The five course dining experience was very enjoyable. In addition, the portions are perfect. Not too small or too large so we could enjoy every serving. Thanks to the chef for the beautiful servings - very creative. I look forward to returning. It is expensive but worth it! read more

Flagstaff House Restaurant An iconic Boulder experience -- timeless, refined, unforgettable Dining at Flagstaff House is more than a meal--it's an experience that defines fine dining in Boulder. Perched above the city, the views alone set the stage, but what truly elevates Flagstaff is the consistency, grace, and attention to detail that carries through every part of the evening. The service is exceptional--polished without being pretentious, attentive without ever feeling intrusive. From the moment you're seated, the staff guides the evening with confidence and warmth, whether it's pacing courses perfectly or offering thoughtful wine recommendations. The wine program is outstanding and clearly a point of pride. Each pour is deliberate and elegant, with a deep cellar that caters equally to seasoned collectors and curious enthusiasts. Wine here isn't an accessory--it's an integral part of the experience. The food is refined and beautifully executed, balancing classic technique with modern touches. Each course feels intentional, showcasing high-quality ingredients and restraint rather than excess. Nothing is rushed; the evening unfolds at exactly the right pace. Flagstaff House is a place for special occasions, celebrations, and moments worth remembering. It delivers the kind of quiet excellence that only comes from decades of doing things the right way. A true Boulder institution--and one that continues to set the standard. read more

We went to Flagstaff House for my son's college graduation, so it was a very special occasion for our family. That said, for the price, I expected the details to be handled more smoothly. I had requested champagne on the table for a toast and had to remind them. They were also supposed to have my son's name printed on each menu, but that was forgotten. The explanation given was that we arrived early, although we were only about 15-20 minutes early and had planned to sit in the bar first. I also later realized that while the five-course prix fixe menu was $185 per person, there were supplemental charges for certain menu items. The wagyu had a $42 upcharge per plate, and the quail had a $12 upcharge. I understand those charges may have been listed in small print on the menu, but my focus that evening was on my son's graduation and our family celebration -- not on studying supplemental pricing. I only noticed the extra charges later when reviewing the receipt and then looking back at the menu. For a group celebration at this price point, I wish those additional costs had been made clearer upfront. The food was creative and visually interesting, but overall it was more adventurous than enjoyable for my personal taste. The courses were small, and several had a gamey flavor that did not appeal to me. Several courses were barely touched by others in our party as well, both men and women, so it was not just my personal preference. At night, the location should offer a beautiful view overlooking Boulder, but the glare from inside the restaurant made it difficult to actually see much out the windows. I can appreciate the artistry behind the menu and the beautiful location, but for such an expensive and meaningful celebration, I expected the food, service details, pricing clarity, and overall experience to feel more polished. read more

We just had our wedding here and I can't rave enough about Annie, the events coordinator. The entire event went off amazingly and I don't think that would have been possible without the amazing staff at the Flagstaff House. The food was amazing and the location is very hard to beat for the greater Denver-Boulder area. The venue is best for more intimate events I would argue (we had 35 guests), but at no time did it feel empty or overly crowded. The staff did everything they could to make our day feel special. We have also dined here before. Again, amazing food, atmosphere, and service. I have had Michelin-starred restaurants that don't even come close to the Flagstaff house, so if you are in the area, put it at the top of your list. read more

My husband and I celebrated our wedding anniversary at The Flagstaff House, and the entire evening was unforgettable. From the moment we arrived, the service and attention to detail were truly next level--even down to personalized menus congratulating us on our anniversary. We chose the signature 4-course experience, and every dish was absolutely outstanding. As a thoughtful touch, we were even sent home with cranberry bread to enjoy the next morning. The staff was warm, attentive, and incredibly knowledgeable about both the dishes and the drinks, making the experience seamless and special. If you're considering visiting for the first time, like we were, it's 100% worth it. This is the kind of romantic dining experience you simply won't find anywhere else! read more

Single diner review (10/29/2024). I had high expectations for this restaurant on a recent holiday to Boulder and have some mixed feelings about my experience -- let me walk you through them. The food was interesting. As a solo diner I went with the Chef's Tasting Menu as it was the best way to taste as many dishes as possible. I also went for the zero proof pairing (as I had just flown in from DC that morning and didn't want all the alcohol). The highlight of the menu was definitely the Matsutake Dashi (black cod, rabbit sausage, bok choy) which incorporated bitter, umami, salty, and sweet flavors all on one plate. I also really enjoyed the amuse bouche of parmesean cracker with caviar and creme fraiche. I also really enjoyed the zero proof pairing -- all of the drinks were exquisitely prepared and showed a creative and varied approach to beverages. A disappointment was the Magret de Canard with a minuscule serving of duck and overly crusty apple dumplings. The biggest issue of the evening was pacing. I had a reservation for 7pm and my first course was served at 7:42pm (I checked the time stamp on my pictures). This was not because I was indecisive. I had a plan. I had reviewed the menu ahead of time. This was just the pacing of the staff. The other issue was the temperature of the room. I was FREEZING! I was seated in the back of the restaurant on a platform with one other table. The table below me had a space heater next to them. When I mentioned the temp,my waitress suggested I put on my coat. That's a bit disappointing for what is supposedly a fine dining experience. It has a great view of Boulder, but I wouldn't trust them with a special event dinner based on my service. Also, unless there are ramps and elevators I didn't see, this place is not easily accessible for people with mobility challenges. Be prepared for a 3+ hour dinner that should take more like two and plates that are more tastes than courses. read more

I only went to the bar for drinks before dinner somewhere else in Boulder, but this place seems pretty great. The views are amazing, the staff is nice, and the cocktails are spot on. I will say that being in the bar is really awkward.

We had a reservation at 5pm on 8/16 to celebrate my son leaving for college the next day. The reservation possibly needed to be adjusted, so I left messages with Kit during the day. She never called back, so our plans were ruined. I called the main number at 5pm to let them know we wouldn't be coming in... letting them know that we had to cancel because Kit never returned my calls. "Oh, that's because she's off for a few days." No apology. No admission that Kit should have changed her outgoing message. When I said I didn't want to be charged for the cancellation, the hostess coldly said that they would "grant" me a one-time no cancellation fee! No apology for ruining what was supposed to a festive send-off for my son. So, we celebrated our son's leaving for college with take out from another restaurant. Shame on Flagstaff House! read more

The service was impeccable! Everyone was very friendly and relaxed, despite the elegance of the establishment. The tasting menu was just the right size. The tuna Crudo stood out as one of my favorites with strawberry, pink peppercorn and balsamic. This was paired with a sparkling wine from Kent England which was surprisingly unique, delicious and perfectly paired with the tuna. I also particularly enjoyed the salmon course which was charred perfectly in order to appreciate the crispy skin and the black garlic. The next two courses of meat were very satisfying, with the lamb being my favorite, however who can go wrong with moral mushrooms aside the pork roulade. And they were not shy with the morel mushrooms. I also want to highlight the last wine we tasted which was a sparkling rose from France and absolutely wonderful in its light sweetness and perfect effervescence. Great place for a special birthday! read more

Near perfect score thwarted by grains of rice. Obviously the view is spectacular. Arriving for an early dinner, we were able to see the city of Boulder transition into nighttime with a near full-mooning as backdrop. Gorgeous. The service from start to finish was impeccable, which is what you expect from a restaurant like this. Waters always filled, clean napkins, foods presented in unison with staff knowledgeable about each meal and ingredient. Our meals and drinks were delicious, with one medium-sized exception, which I'll get to in a minute. The five of us decided to go with the four course dinner. Each dish was presented beautifully, each offered a progression of flavors that was well suited for the meal as a whole. My favorite was the lobster with risotto. Oftentimes this dish can be too heavy and dense, but all the ingredients were proportioned in such a way that the dish was light and flavorful. My main dish was where I met disappointment. I ordered the A5 Wagyu supplement, which came with sticky rice and lightly dusted with furikake. The Asian bent of the dish really intrigued me and I was looking forward to experiencing the flavoring of the meat "bleeding over" to the rice. Sigh. That mark was missed, by yards. The dish was beautifully presented. There was a ring of the medium rare wagyu atop a ring of rice dusted with the furikake. The rice however was cold and coarse, undercooked even. When rice is undercooked it's crumbly and chalky. That's what I experienced with every bite of the rice. I was hoping for warm, sticky, glutinous goodness but instead encountered something entirely unexpected and unwelcome. Again the meal here was fantastic. I really appreciated the rest of the meal and service. However, when you're paying $88 additional dollars for a Wagyu supplement, you should expect perfection. read more

3.5 rounded up... it feels bizarre to rate such a high end restaurant so low but... I have some issues. I want to say that first the service was excellent. I know in Boulder, staff tends to run young because of the university, but they were all lovely and informative. I've lived in the area my whole life and had high expectations. But I can say that at least half of the courses were hard to consume. I absolutely hate wasting high end food. But there were things I left untouched because I couldn't take a second bite. And I know some of that is personal tastes, but based on the opinions from the rest of the group, I wasn't alone. I was SO excited about the venison and "stew" but when it came, one piece of my venison was well done (I ordered medium) and the stew looked like it sat under a heat lamp for an hour... it did not look like they've shown frequently on social media. Also, PLEASE update your online menu to reflect current in-restaurant menu. I came in prepared for lobster for one of the courses based on their online menu and instead my option was soft shell crab, and I couldn't touch it. The views amazing, service great, and the quality of some food excellent. But a lot of it left me feeling meh which sucks. Also sucks that I don't really want to go back read more

Came here for my husband's birthday recently. We found the whole experience pretty disappointing for a restaurant this expensive. First, the waitress spilled both my water all around my glass and later my wine on the bottom of the glass and on the tablecloth. She didn't apologize, attempt to clean it up, or try to get more wine since she spilled a not insignificant amount. My husband had to clean it up himself since it would have ended up on my pants. He spent the rest of the meal with a wine-soaked napkin - never got another one. The service was honestly lacking. The sommelier was great, but everyone else left a lot to be desired. I had an allergy that I informed the restaurant of when I booked the restaurant. When I went to order, the waitress didn't mention any allergy issues on the menu. After ordering, she came back and said that one of my choices had the allergy in it and told me to make another selection. The other two options were a meat I do not eat and an option with an upcharge. I stated that I wasn't excited about either one and she just looked at me so I picked the upcharge item. Throughout the entire meal, no one ever cleared crumbs from the table, which was a little strange considering how much they were hovering over the table to clear things the second you got the last bite in your mouth. The food was...fine. We had a few dishes that were great, a few that were fine, and one that was disgusting. Overall this was absolutely not worth the money spent. We will not be back or recommending this to anyone else. read more

It's an insult that they don't have a Michelin star. They are fully deserving for food, service, destination, attention to detail and presentation. What else do you need to know. Stop what you are doing and make a reservation right now. Outside seating is incredible. Special recommendation - they have a special cocktail - something like smokehouse- knocked my socks off. Captured smoke presentation with fire water so Smokey spicy and spectacular. Testing menu is great but the standard 3 course is amazing and reasonable. Dinner for two with cocktails around $400 with tip. read more

This was the first ever prix fixe menu i'd had a few years ago so it was a delight to finally come back. The service here is incredible, they truly go above and beyond which makes for a very special night along with the view. The little bites like the amuse bouches and palate cleansers that they gave us were delicious. We also added on the Scottish Smoked Salmon to start which was very good. The Alaskan Halibut was cooked perfectly, it was juicy and flaked apart nicely. The olives also added such a great flavor to it. My boyfriend's main course was the Texas Venison which he really loved. The dessert that I chose was the Mulberry pain perdu, i had never had mulberries before and they were delicious. Thank you Flagstaff House for such a wonderful evening! read more

Wow !! So great. The location - fantastic! Terrific views and from a variety of locations in the restaurant. The service was outstanding- from valet, to host, to servers and staff- great friendly team work. The food- scared a bit from a couple of detailed disappointing customer reviews, but we did not have that experience at all. You have 2 options -4 course option or chef's tasting menu. It is definitely pricey but well worth the experience. The quality of the food was outstanding, the presentation was art, the quantity overall was more than enough. It was an excellent experience and would rate it nothing less than 5 . Please check out the photos! They also gave plenty of other treats not part of the menu. Can't wait to return!!! read more

Rarely can you go to a restaurant having sky high expectations and have them exceeded. My wife and I experienced just that with an anniversary dinner. The small details and little extras made our evening rise to a sublime level as each course was somehow better than the last.

Worth every penny. read more

We celebrated our anniversary here and it was perfect! The views are stunning, the service impeccable and the food was beautifully prepared. This is the place to celebrate a special occasion in Boulder. We actually had 2 anniversary dinners when we were in town and this was by far our favorite. There is an option of the 4 course menu or a chefs tasting menu. And the tasting menu is offered with a wine pairing, but we opted to go with a bottle. The food is seasonal, so the menu does change, which is more reason to come again, especially if you are local to the area. We were there in the summer of 2022, so this review is a bit dated if you are looking for reviews based on the current menu. And unfortunately we don't live in CO, but will be back again if we are ever in the area. read more

Holy moly. What a life changing dining experience! We came here to celebrate our wedding anniversary and what a celebration it was. The staff here is thoughtful, attentive and simply on point. Sheila our server was a delight and knowledgeable about the menu. We drove up, they have complimentary valet, and walked to the host stand where they knew who we were and were ready to seat us and we were also greeted with a happy anniversary! The view is stunning which adds to the entire experience! We did the regular tasting menu and were blown away by the taste and presentation. Such a sweet and thoughtful touch here - they customized the menu for us and wrote us a message! I mean., how incredible. And then they got the valet staff to place the menu in the car for us! I'm generally not a gal that's into the tiny little pieces of food and always feel like I'm going to leave hungry. Not at flagstaff! We were STUFFED. The house made bread of the week was delicious (it was an herby garlicky roll) and the starters, amuse bouche, entrees were incredible. The smoked salmon canapé was delicious although in hindsight we didn't need it because there was so much food. 1st course : pate and crudo. The pate offered a sweet and savory combo but wasn't my favorite. 2nd course: quail and blackfish - delicious! 3rd course: filet and lamb rack - both a must if you eat meat. Perfectly cooked to medium rare and accompanied by a tasty sauce. I loved the little twice baked potatoes that were served with the steak. 4th course : dessert we had to pack to take home because we were stuffed. They sent us home with some homemade little candies/ macaroons and some zucchini bread. Taste was not a favorite but the thought and service, again, was incredible. You're coming here for an experience, annnnd that experience will prob last 2+ hours so plan accordingly! The staff seems well trained - they pace out the dishes and keep a close eye on those dining. Also, when you go to the bathroom, they move out of the way, stop conversation and make you feel like you're the president or something. It cracked us up because we weren't used to such incredible service but it made everything that much more special. Also loved that they had some light music in the background - indie ish music that was not pretentious and felt totally relatable which helped with the ambiance. Thanks to the crew for making it such a special anniversary dinner and thank you Sheila!! If you have a special occasion to celebrate and want it to be memorable, flagstaff is your spot. read more

It's amazing how beautiful the views are at the Flagstaff House in the evening. The lights of the city below are extraordinary. We booked our reservation more than a month in advance, be prepared to book your table a while in advance as they are generally booked solid. The restaurant is located up a windy mountain road. Luckily there is valet parking to help you when you get there. We had reservations and had to wait only a short while to be seated. The service was excellent. I didn't like a drink I ordered based on our server's recommendation and they replaced it right away. The food was good though slightly under seasoned. Honestly if the food had been better this would definitely have been a 5 star review. We will likely return to try the menu next season. It's a perfect place for an anniversary or special occasion. The service is fantastic. read more

Ho-.. Lee-.. S***. This has to have been the WORST most EXPENSIVE food I have EVER eaten for THIRTEEN HUNDRED DOLLARS. Short answer: top tier views, poor tier service, virtually inedible food, and ABYSMALLY exorbitant prices. If you want to spend over 1000 dollars for fancy food go to ANY other restaurant in boulder. Long answer: We ordered the eight course chefs choise meal, so take into consideration that this may have been the cause of the terrible food. If you DO go to this resteraunt, which you shouldnt, then do NOT order the chefs choice. The first and ONLY good item were the canapés, they came in tiny little salmon bites for some reason. The second dish was a quote unquote "Asparagus mousse" What we got was essentially a mosquito coil of asparagus flavored baby food. The third dish was claimed to be a French onion SOUP, what we got was not even CLOSE to a soup. Essentially it was deep fried cubes with an onion-esque liquid in the middle. The fourth dish was the Columbia river sturgeon, I was expecting fish but instead got a plume of smoke down my throat. Once the mysterious gust had cleared I was left with a "fish" that was closer to a block of smokey wood than any food I can think of. The fifth dish the "spring garden". But I think a better name would be "scoop of dirt we found on the side of the road". It had fake "edible" dirt that consisted of dried, ground up mushrooms, several sad little plants, and some brown pieces of mystery meat that was said to be rabbit. The remaining items were green apple gelee, Blackstrap venison ham, Colorado lamb, quadrello di bufala, st.German Pavlova with rhubarb and lime, and dark chocolate torte. I won't get into the details of these because it's unnecessary, but they were all equally inedible. Closing, I know that resteraunts can't be perfect, but the poor service and awful food was UNFORGIVABLE when compared to the grand total cost of this meal, which was 1300 dollars. If i could leave less than one star, believe me I would. read more

Holy Moly what a wonderful dining experience. I'm referencing the entire customer journey from making the reservation until we said Au revoir. Our 5-star experience began with a phone call the day before our visit. I had noted on the reservation that this was a very special event dinner. I was asked if we had any dietary restrictions as the chef had planned something special for us. WTHeck x 10. This has never ever happened to me before. We did our due diligence regarding the expected dress code and poured over their menu. We settled on the four-course menu. My (wrong) assumption 4 small plates and we are ordering burgers back at the hotel. Upon arrival (Uber) we were greeted by name and escorted to the host station. Again we were greeted by name and were congratulated on our milestone. We were shown to our table in the corner away from the other diners and as requested we had a table next to the windows. Our server JT quickly arrived introduced himself and provide us with personalized menus. JT was fabulous his attention to detail and his in-depth description of each course were well appreciated as we are not French cuisine aficionados. Our pre-dinner Martinis were perfectly done along with a Comp appetizer. Our journey then began with the tough decision for each course as there are 6 options. I opted for seafood for each course. My Kaisendon (sashimi), Loup De Mer, and Alaskan Halibut entrees were spectacular. My taste buds were going bonkers as we eagerly awaited our next course. Plus one went for a meat themed dinner. I did get to sample the pork belly and filet entrees and yes they were delicious! Not so fast between courses we were offered additional Chef specials as well as a sorbet to cleanse our palette. With almost fully satisfied stomachs we awaited our dessert. My Golden Sesame Egg almost put me into a chocolate comma. But we were also offered a 3-plate tower of additional desserts including more dark chocolate. Lastly, JT arrived with breakfast bread to have with our morning coffee. Why 5-stars: Service impeccable, Entrees off the charts delicious, Attention to detail superb, Make you feel like you are the only patrons, yes, and Venue is beautiful sitting on a mountain top with gorgeous views. read more

Came here for our anniversary based of recommendations and everything was absolutely stellar. I've been to several Michelin-star restaurants and Flagstaff House's service was beyond anything I've ever encountered. They called ahead of time to ask more details about our anniversary so they could print "Happy Third Anniversary!" along with the date on the menu. After we ordered they then said that the menus will be waiting for us in our valeted car after dinner. They even offered to box up the empty bottle of wine we had with dinner to keep as a memento. Everyone we interacted with from the valet to the server was professional, extremely thoughtful, and still very personable. All of that, with an insane view over Boulder makes this the best restaurant I've ever been to. I cannot recommend this restaurant enough. read more

Our son is a foodie and had us take him here while we visited Boulder. The views were spectacular and the atmosphere very nice for a formal dinner. We did the 7-8 course tasting menu with wine pairing. The food was very good. Notable were the Chilled Summer Squash Soup, the savory rice pudding with truffles, the foie gras and the delicious apricot dessert. The wine pairings were outstanding and as good as some Michelin dinners we've had. Service was also very good. I wouldn't be surprised if Flagstaff shoots for a Michelin in coming years. This is a great place for celebration dinners. Ours took a little over 3 hours with all the courses. read more

Holy hell! If you're looking for fine dining in Boulder, look no further than Flagstaff House! I came through twice within a week. Initially, with my lead and I just had to take my hubby here when he came for a visit. First, there are phenomenal views of Boulder! Second, come hungry!!! In between each serving they give you palate cleansers. You can choose the four-course menu, chef's tasting menu or just a la carte! Both times I came we just chose a la carte. But we really wanted to try everything! One of the items I tried on my first visit was called "Tuna Sandwich" It is not what you think it is, so it peaked my curiosity - how would they do a spin an American classic? Well, they used Hamachi tartare, on brioche spread with cornichon relish, added some pickled quail egg. It was delightful! I am also a huge fan of lamb, so I ordered the Colorado rack of lamb and lamb shank. It was very filling and so much flavor, not gamey at all! When my husband came with me he ordered the Venison - tender and juicy. They have a great wine list and the wall of whiskey, OMG... Service is phenomenal, too! Make sure to make reservations! And they also provide complimentary valet parking. read more
