    Fried Mozzarella
    Briana S.

    It's a great place to go after visiting Maroon Bells. I will say the cashier gave a weird vibe like it was an inconvenience for him to be taking our order. I got the Baja Salad with chicken. I thought it was pretty good. I genuinely enjoyed it. My husband got chicken tenders and he said it was dry. What was shocking to us was how crazy expensive it was. We got the salad adding a protein, chicken tenders, fried mozzarella, and a soda and a margarita, that all came out to $92ish. That was just mind baffling. So if you're coming here, keep in mind you'll be spending a pretty penny.

    Ate here after a morning walk at the Maroon Bells. It was not that busy around 11AM. We ordered a pizza and it did take some time. [[HIGHLIGHT]]You can sit anywhere, and they bring your order to you after because of the number you get.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] [[HIGHLIGHT]]We ate outside with a view of the beautiful green hills.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] The food was delicious and fresh, and the service was good.

    Surprisingly a great place to have a quick bite before you take a ride to Maroon bells! Ordered a few beers and their whips white pizza - most fresh pizza I've had! Staff was nice and prompt! The views are fantastic Ofcourse! We did see a private event happening outdoors. Overall loved it! Will recommend for sure!

    nachos and condiments
    Sarah D.

    Well what can say 27 bucks for a measly plate of nachos. The pizza is good also overpriced got 2 medium pizzas for 72 dollars. It is Aspen but seriously. And I couldn't even get extra guacamole when the nachos turned into just chips. Watch your bill too because they add the tip without telling you so you will end up tipping three times. I think I'll stick to eating at the carousel where the staff is friendlier and the prices are better even on the mountain. Where's the goodies?

    Solid casual spot in Aspen when you don't want to spend $50 on one dish. Large menu with a great variety of food options. Pizza's are incredible.

    Fried Oreos and ice cream
    Brenda S.

    We ate her twice while we were in Aspen. It was That good. Loved the chicken quesadilla. Also the mozzarella sticks we delicious! Definitely try the fried Oreos. Sooo good! Service was fast both times we went there. Beautiful view of the slopes.

    This place is a perfect place to grab drinks and food with friends. We came here after going to Maroon Bells for an elopement, everyone loved it. We had a patio table outside, enjoyed the outdoors, played with a few doggies, had delicious drinks, and shared some good laughs.

    Expensive but extremely fresh mussels
    Jess C.

    Aspen is famous for being expensive and crowded, but Aspen Highlands is the hidden gem. Highlands Alehouse was the main restaurant at the bottom of the hill. The pizza was so delicious, and the mussels (special) were fresh and savory. How do you even import mussels this fresh? Great convenient location for lunch which won't break the bank. Love that it's much less crowded than Snowmass and Aspen!

    Arugula and Prociutto salad- tasty!

    Incredibly rude woman working the cashier. Couldn't have been more unfriendly and unhelpful taking our order.

    Great restaurants bathrooms inside and street parking…read more Servers were very attentive and it gets busy so if you want a table i would consider making reservations. I came with my flight crew (just a couple of pilots in addition) and we just sat at the bar. I had the kale rotisserie chicken salad. The peanut dressing does have soy sauce so it is not gluten free, so they brought me a champagne vinaigrette instead. It was delicious. I got this during the cyclospora outbreak, because I'm a wild person now lol but they assured me they only get quality ingredients and super clean all veggies and fruit coming in. My pilots got the meatballs, creamed corn, and deviled eggs and they LOVED them.

    I liked the open bar and open kitchen style. While it does require a wait because they don't take…read morereservations, you can always call ahead to see how long their wait time is. They are pet friendly and have outdoor seating! Servers were very friendly although the serving can take a bit longer, depending on how busy they are. The French Dip came with lots of prime rib and a cup of Au jus, with horseradish to cut down on the heaviness. Crispy chicken sandwich was my favorite! It came sliced in three so the portion was massive. The chicken had more of a Japanese katsu style breading on it so it was super crispy. The burger was also a solid choice. Great bun to filling ratio and the spicy slaw was a complemented the burger well. The fries were pricey and I didn't realize that they weren't a side but an appetizer, but these fries were super crispy and delicious. You could tell that they were fried freshly on the spot. The creamy sauce it came with paired well with them! Deviled eggs were savory and had a kick from the pickle relish. This was my first time eating creamed corn and I liked it! It was warm and creamy, with a slight kick from the jalapeño slices.

    I ate at Jing last night with 5 friends with an 8:15 reservation. Everything seemed to be going…read morewell, We were seated outside on the patio at a great table and we were all comfortable and content. We were never informed that kitchen closes at 9.... Something that clearly needs to be stated for an 8:15 reservation. Aspen is a vacation spot and we're expecting to drink and be festive rather than be told that kitchen is closing and staff all want to get out of here. Jordan, our server, absolutely had no patience for us , especially For our celiac (gluten free) friend. She completely disappeared, as if her shift ended at 9.Erica , the manager, took over the serving duties and she clearly needs training on dealing with customers. As a chef/ restauranteur of 30 years i was absolutely appalled by the way Erica handled our criticism. We all agreed we have never felt more unwelcome in a restaurant in our lives. The food was average at best. I do believe at one point in time it was good, but standards have slipped. We ordered mapo tofu and was told they weren't making it today? Not we are out of it just "Frank isn't making it". There seems to be no leader or anyone in charge. what a disappointing experience and we will never go back. Period
