We were looking for a low key atmosphere and this was definitely a relaxed vibe. The server was nice, but got the impression he wasn't normally the server. He took the order and someone from the kitchen brought out the food. Only one other table and a few people at the bar was a bit concerning, but we decided to stay. Place could really use some cleaning and updating. It reminded me of an old college bar that needed tlc. The menu had a lot of good offerings, but the food didn't taste freshly prepared. The chicken tasted premade and frozen. With so much competition in the area, it was surprising and disappointing . I guess it's fine if you have munchies while you're having a few drinks, but definitely not a place I would go to for lunch or dinner. read more

I have a theory that every restaurant that has a cartoon moose as their logo has amazing food, and Garfinkle's is no exception! This is the perfect spot after a day of skiing - the drinks were amazing (I had a hot chocolate that was delicious) and the food was great as well. I got a grilled chicken sandwic that was huge and tasty, and the sweet potato fries were some of the best I've ever had. Definitely recommend, and going here is a new tradition any time I'm in Vail. read more

I'm posting this review a few weeks late. The restaurant is located right at the base of a ski run. So, the ideal location at winter time for hungry skiers and snowboarders coming down the slopes. Everything on the menu looked great, prices were reasonable (for Vail/Avon, CO), and the portions were generous. Nachos and burgers are amazing! Burgers were cooked to perfection (medium rare we ordered). Now the details... Wow! This place was absolutely fantastic! In my experience, it is very rare to walk out of a restaurant and be in awe over the service (Cassie) and their food. Not to mention, to continue to talk about the dining experience there. Yes, of course it is 'bar food' or 'pub food' but in that category, this place gets FIVE STARS! What made the experience over and beyond great was the waitress -- Cassie (Casanave). Super friendly, very accommodating, fast and efficient! Cassie raised my bar on what good restaurant service should be! Next time we visit this restaurant, we are going to seek her out and sit in her section. I must say that I also noticed a camaraderie amongst the staff here. Everyone looked happy and they all seemed to treat each other like family. That says a lot about the good management here! I highly recommend this restaurant! read more

Terrible service, Avoid at all costs!!! Took my ID because they said it was fake, I'm 28 and look my age. Management and the servers were rude to me while I waited for the cops to show up and give it back, the manager even tried to kick me out while they still had my ID, which shows how much they care about service and how intelligent the people in charge are. The Police informed us this was a consistent problem with this establishment and wr should meet with the officer outside before the aggressive management lied to the officer about the situation. The police also told me that the scanner didn't say my ID was fake but that there was some other issue. I'm pretty sure the way they handled this was a crime also well as extremely unprofessional. I've been here before and the food isn't great and the bathrooms are gross. Stay away read more

Ambiance is what lets this restaurant stay in buisness. Mediocre at best food. Then add the fact that two of my sons' IDs were taken (ages 28 and 24). The restaurant would not give them back to us and would not call the police and told us that it was a crime to use a fake ID. Yes, that is a fact but these are real IDs so we called the police to get them back. Needless to say we will never be frequenting this restaurant and will not be recommending this establishment to any of my clients who visit Vail. The manager could have made this situation so much better by stating they just had to follow the rules but instead he became belligerent and rude. read more

Great patio bar in Lionshead, but don't be fooled by Yelp reviews making this bar come up #1 for happy hour. They do NOT have happy hour. Boooo. Knocked one star for that. However, they have a well curated bar with both local and global libations. As a gin lover, two of my favorites were here: Barr Hill Tom Cat and one from Mythology. Plenty of good eats. Even a vegan pasta and burger. Prices are normal for Vail. read more

My food and cocktail were delicious! I sat on the patio and it was a gorgeous day :) Meghan my server was nice and attentive. Cocktail prices aren't listed, but they're reasonable. The one bummer was that the first guy who came over to my table seemed annoyed to serve me. I stepped away from work for a quick bite, and looked at the menu ahead of time so I could order promptly. After he took my drink order, I told him I would like to order my food as well. He refused to take my food order at that time, and said he would take it after my drink arrives. It just seemed weird to refuse taking my order when I was asking to order and he had the ability to ring it in (ordering device in hand). He did come back a few minutes later with my drink and then did allow me to place my food order. I asked for a side of sauce, and I could tell he didn't intend to bring it (I was a server for many years and i didn't see him input my request). When food was delivered I asked the food runner for a side of sauce, and they brought it. Still tipped 20%, but it was not fun for my first interaction with staff to be bad vibes (Would give 4 or 5 stars, without the unfriendly first impression!!) read more

Damn! this is such a mid restaurant to go to in Veil. I expected better since its in Veil and you know how boujie this place gets. My girfriend and her friends went to this place expecting a good meal after a long day of snowboarding, but mann I rather go to our local Wendy's to get these dishes. First, the customer service is terrible to begin with cause our server kept missing our order and our friend waited at least 30 minutes to be served at. I understand it is busy, but it should have been expected around this time of the season. Anyways, the food is mid, well except their wagyu burger (the only good part of their menu). Oh yeah their beers are pretty good actually.. other than that.. do not even bother ordering any. I ordered their bison burger and wow it was dry as a dessert in my mouth. They have caffeteria style buns, which is ridiculous for a $25 burger and fries. The prices that they charged does not match the food that they served. Yes, I am aware that we're in veil, but damn are you that selfish to provide better quality food. Cmon now, gotta step it up! Utterly dissapointment :/ read more

Stopped by with a friend who didn't want to spend a lot of money for lunch at Vail and this place fit the bill. You have to set your price expectations because tax alone is almost 10%. Anyway, my friend liked her brisket sandwich and fries. We saw plenty of our server and the person bussing tables was also kind (my friend had 2 fries left and it's totally reasonable to think she might be done. He asked first and that was appreciated). It was breezy so we sat in the back where it was very comfortable. My spicy chicken sandwich was good but a little too pickley compared to similar sandwiches I've had. I loved that the potato soup wasn't too salty. This is a very solid place for late season resort food. read more

This was probably the best place to go to for some after skiing grub! If you're wanting a beer and some good nachos or sandwiches/burgers, this is the place! We were able to walk in and find a table around 5:30ish on a Saturday night. They just closed the patio after we arrived since it was getting dark. Best starter is the platter of nachos - for a party of 5, we dominated it! I ordered the Reuben sandwich and it was a solid sandwich for dinner. Service was pretty good, our waiter was helpful and continued to check in on us throughout visit.

Dinner reservations are available 30 days out on Open Table, and they go instantly. I heard them quote 2+ hours for walk-ins, so definitely plan ahead if you can! Cocktails: I've always loved their cocktails, so even if you don't have dinner here, you should at least check out the bar. I've never been disappointed in any drink I've gotten. Dinner: - Butternut baba ganoush: all the flavors of baba ganoush but with butternut squash, and the warm pita was great - Fire roasted tomato and chorizo soup: a bit on the thinner side, smoky, interesting - Buttermilk sea salt biscuit: rich, flaky, with extra butter, country ham, and red pepper jelly - Warm pimento cheese: I don't usually care for pimento, but their's is great with grilled bread. They also use this on their burger at lunch - Wood grilled octopus: nice wood fire flavor, great ham hock beans underneath, grilled avocado - Crispy brussels sprouts: interesting flavor with the grilled avocado sikil pak - Wood fired pork chop: tender, generously sized - Grilled cobia: wonderful warming pineapple coconut curry, charred pineapple, and fresnos for a kick - Seafood diavolo: very flavorful (my dad found it too salty), served over polenta Lunch items: - Fresh catch: Argentenian shrimp and polenta - like shrimp and grits, very flavorful - Grilled cheese and soup: always a good combo - Burger: we added the onion rings, which had a good kick to them They also had a really solid kids' menu, which I appreciate. Despite how busy they are, service is attentive, and the manager came by personally to check in, which was a nice touch. Food and drink pacing was also good despite it being packed.

Other employees helped with service, including clearing plates and inquiring if we needed anything. The restaurant is definitely number one at customer service and I loved how everyone worked together. Even though the restaurant was busy, we did not feel lost in the shuffle. It was clean and inviting. They offered an array of choices, so there would be something for everyone if you decide to dine here. The food was good, preparation and display were done carefully, but the taste was overall just ok. The appetizers we chose were Warm Pimento Cheese, which was mildly flavorful, but good, and Prime Beef Carne Apache, which had no flavor at all. The main courses we chose included a pork dish and a chicken dish. The chicken had great flavor, but was placed on a bed of potato wedges which were not all completely cooked through. We felt this took away from the overall dish. The accompanied sauce made with yogurt and poppyseed did not add any flavor to the dish. The pork dish had great flavor. The drinks accompanying the food were made well and tasty. The kids menu has an array of choices as well, and our choice of macaroni and cheese was a hit! We ended with a frozen snicker bar dessert that tasted exactly like a frozen snickers bar. Overall, we had a very nice evening and would definitely visit again.

We stopped in at the Red Lion after skiing…read more It was crowded and we were looking for an outside table for six people. Only four of us were there as the other two were across the street at Christy's returning their rental skis. There was a table of 6 but the hostess said she couldn't sit us until the other two arrived. Right then, a guy walks up and asks for that same table. He was by himself and she gave the table with six chairs to him. His full party was clearly not there but she sat him anyway. Why is that allowed? Clearly favoritism. And to be clear, two of his friends showed up and the other three never arrived. So, at that point we told the hostess we were now a table of four and she said we could sit at a table that had 3 chairs. Well okay....we took it. We grabbed the table and asked other tables around us for the extra 3 chairs and everyone was nice enough to give us the extra chairs. Our server, Suzanne was excellent. Very attentive, friendly and immediately brought us our drinks and food. The nachos were tasty. Drinks were good but pricy. I give Suzanne 5 stars, food 3 stars hostess 0 stars. Treat everyone fairly and respectfully. The hostess could use customer service training.

The fajitas are generous and delicious. You definitely will have leftovers. The burritos are quite large, but a perfect combination of ingredients. To top it off, an extensive list of tequilas for on the rocks or a creative margarita. A casual, but yummy spot for a date night or group of eight. One caveat...there are no reservations, but you can join the waitlist once you are headed their way.

We were staying down the street from The Four Seasons and wanted to pop in for a drink after dinner…read moreat the Remedy Bar. We walked in and it appeared to be a quiet night, we could see the bar was pretty empty. The hostess asked if we were staying at the hotel and we said no, we were dropping by for cocktails and wished to sit outside. She told us we could sit inside at a couch area by the entrance. One of our friends walked through the bar and noticed the fire pit seating areas were available and asked a server if we could sit there instead. She looked at us and said she would have to ask the hostess if any were available. Clearly they were and they didn't want our group sitting there for some reason. The bar was practically empty so not sure what the issue would be, perhaps it was because we were not hotel guests. After not getting back to us we just sat ourselves outside. Our server was Nivas. Nivas was not overly friendly but she was attentive. We ordered a couple rounds of cocktails. They were pricy but good. The fire pit tables are very nice. If you can sit outside at a fire pit I would recommend doing so.

Such a relaxing but chic spot to enjoy a meal after being out in the mountains. Our waitress was not overbearing and gave us enough time between bites to take it all in. She also made sure we got the full experience with the hot chocolate to marvel at its glory! The food was excellent, but the butternut squash soup was truly outstanding. It had a beautiful natural sweetness with a subtle hint of apple that made the flavor feel layered and comforting, and the pepitas added the perfect little crunch. It was one of those dishes you keep thinking about after you leave. We also ordered the hummus, which tasted incredibly fresh and crisp, light, bright, and perfectly refreshing alongside the richer dishes. But the real star of the experience was the hot chocolate. It was absolutely decadent and comforting, easily one of the best cups of hot chocolate I've ever had. Rich, smooth, and the perfect treat in a snowy Vail setting. Overall, Remedy Bar delivers a beautiful atmosphere, delicious food, and a cozy mountain-luxury experience. I would absolutely recommend stopping in if you're visiting Vail.

The red sauce on this pizza is SO GOOD!…read more We got a couple different kinds and what stood out to me was how flavorful the red sauce was. I also really liked the toppings to cheese ratio. My favorite topping was the sausage, but they were all super tasty. Also the location is perfect, I've been walking this place for years and am so happy I finally got a chance to try it! The inside is also feels like an old school pizza shop, which is very cozy and welcoming. I think they also do pizza by the slice, but I was with a group so we gotta a couple mediums and they were perfectly cooked. Service was super attentive and overall really liked this place!

My girlfriend and I walked in and got sat at a table. 5 mins in the manger lady comes over and starts making my gf and I feel so unwelcome. She was suppose to reserve that table for the owner. But there was no reserved sign on the table when we got sat there. So she started to tell table around us about the table issue and it made us feel so uncomfortable. On top of that she was giving us attitude the whole time. Now the owner... I feel terrible for the people who have to work for this lady. After 30 mins of us sitting there and having a drink and some snacks. She walks over and gave us some much attitude and was said "WASNT THERE A RESERVED SIGN ON THIS TABLE? Because this is my table!" we quickly replied no there wasn't. Whole time the manager was also there rolling her eyes at us and giving us a face. These ladies continued to make us feel so uncomfortable for the next couple minutes. So I just paid and left. I didn't even want to pay to be honest. We're paying customers, we did nothing to be treated this way. The owner is some old grumpy entitled lady with some money. I WOULD NOT COME BACK.

Perhaps people are upset with the vail prices or the delay during a busy time. Look it's not the best food I've eaten but it's definitely on the right side of good. The truffle fries are a must have, as they always should be! The street taco was more chili cheese dip but it was very good and with coleslaw and one in a tortilla it's fantastic. It isnt cheap but it's vail so if you expected different you didn't do your homework.

Service was lacking big time. Food came very late and it was very difficult to get our server's attention. Waters were seldom refilled. In one word- Service was disappointing ! Coming to the food : We got Chicken Wings which were very different but not in a good way. I would rate them 7/10. Assorted dumplings did not have any dumplings. It had bunch of shallow fried shrimps, gyoza and chicken sate kind of appetizer . Very misleading menu item. Ordered quesadilla for my kid and it was not good. My wife ordered a Mezcal drink which was watered down a lot. The only saving grace were the desserts which I must say were truly mind blowing. The Toasted Pineapple Gelato was one of the best I've ever had ! (a big reason I am upgrading my review to 3 stars from 2 stars) and the chocolate bomb was amazing too. Overall - We will NOT return to dine in here but we will be back for desserts for sure if we are in the area !
