We had steak tar tar and we eat a LOT of tar tars (all around the world). This was an incredibly delicious and unique dish. I would drive all the way from Arizona to enjoy it again. Additionally, we really wanted to sit outside (the summer day was beautiful, the river was running, flowers blooming...) and the bar staff went out of their way to make this happen. We had beautiful martinis (a MUST with steak tar tar!) Everything was so great, we ordered a second round. We plan to go back again before our week long trip is over as this was a truly amazing & delicious meal. read more

Finished out my trip to Vail with a great dinner at Slope Room. We had 7 adults and 3 young kids. We started with the Heirloom Cornbread, Hamachi Crudo, and Scallops + Gnocchi. While they were all good, the Crudo was definitely my favorite along with the table's. For my entree, I split the Bone In Bison Rib Eye. It was cooked perfectly. I also split the Brussel Sprouts and Mac & Cheese sides. The Brussels were amazing. Our server, Jackie, was incredibly personable and made our experience amazing. If you are looking for a nice dinner in Vail, definitely check out the Slope Room. read more

I loved this restaurant so much I went two nights in a row so that I could try more on the menu. The location is conveniently located in Vail Village. It's easy to get to by bus or if you are driving, it is right outside the Vail Village parking garage. The service was excellent and they were especially accommodating for finding a comfortable table we could sit at considering my husband was on crutches. The restaurant itself was really beautiful, every time I looked around I felt like I saw a new detail that I missed. Food wise - the Pan Roasted Jidori Chicken was knock-your-socks-off good. I normally don't order this kind of chicken dish because usually its a glorified rotisserie chicken but this was not like that AT ALL. The chicken was both crispy on the outside while being juicy on the inside and was paired with the most amazing sauce. I would order this again and again. The other two must-order dishes were the brussel sprouts and the cornbread. Chef's kiss - so so so good. We also tried the short rib - which was great, and the lamb ragu - which I liked (but not as much as the chicken). read more

The service is impeccable. The entire room was full and, even though there were only three (3) servers, every table was attended to. I noticed the manager helping to serve and bus persons never let an empty plate sit at our table too long. We had the cornbread, hamachi crudo, smoked duck, squash soup, and beet and burrata salad to start. For an entree, we had the NY rib eye and the mac n' cheese. For dessert, we had coffee and despite the coffee being lukewarm, the orange olive oil cake (which seemed to have been assembled as it was ordered) made up for it. Everything tasted like perfection! The vibe is hip but the clientele ranged in age while the dance music set the lively tone. read more

Fine dining in the Vail village. First of all the interior is pretty nice but it depends if you get a booth or a table, some booths are located in front of the fire place and some are just facing windows with the view of the parking garage, so very different experience. We got the parking lot view lol The dinning experience itself was very nice, but I think their tartare could probably be less creative, like if it was just regular tartare on a plate with some bread that would be better. We decided to get a couple apps and split one entree, and they brought the ragu already split into two portions which was really nice. For desert they had a olive oil cake which I had to try, and I gotta say, it's an acquired taste but nothing like any desert I had before. read more

The drinks and food were incredible. We started with the cornbread for the table and then each ordered our own entrees. I ordered the short rib and it was delish! Ambiance of the restaurant was laid back and lowkey but also felt elevated and elegant. My friend who we came with was wearing her bride to be stuff and so I was potentially expecting a drink or dessert on the house for her but that did not occur even though the table next to us got one? Could have potentially had to do with who we had serving us read more

The Slope Room did not disappoint. We went straight there after landing and left completely satisfied. Everything our table ordered was outstanding- especially the lamb lollipops, cornbread, beef tartare, and cabbage salad. The vibe was cozy and the music was spot-on (seriously, send me that playlist!). The staff were warm, professional, and genuinely helpful. We will definitely be back and recommending it to everyone. read more

We were really excited to try this restaurant. The food was good, but not quite what we were expecting. However the service was incredible. From our amazing waitress that was very knowledgeable and informative to the manager who quickly handled a concern we had. I would definitely give this restaurant another chance. The menu has many great options. I love that they have a pasta dish (which looks incredible), meat and vegetable options. read more

Where do I begin? We were having a lovely dinner. Food and drinks were great. I leaned over to tell my sister something and the chair broke and I collapsed to the ground. Instead of the manager asking if I was hurt , she gave A dirty look and handed me a new chair. I am appalled! Won't be back! read more

Amazing!!! Worth every penny! We came here for my husband birthday. Didn't know it before we sat down but, they comped our dessert or a cocktail if he did t want dessert for his birthday. The appetizers were the best part of the meal. We got the focaccia bread with burrata, pork Kelley lettuce wraps and winter squash soup. All were amazing and filling so much so that were could have split an entree. We ended up ordering entrees before our apps came so we each got one - short rib and pork chop. The short rib was better. I didn't car for the sweet bbq like sauce that was over the pork chop. They provided a baked Alaska for my husband's birthday dessert. It is quite expensive of a restaurant but most of the restaurant in Vail are. If you're looking for a nice dinner and don't mind paying a bit more it's worth it. read more

Food was pretty good but not terribly inventive and was pretty pricey. We sat in the back room and I didn't like the furniture layout there- our table was in the middle and we kept having servers pass behind and on front of us. Didn't feel like they invested in a true restaurant build out and service was just ok. Didn't hold a candle to our great experience at Mountain Standard. read more

The vibes were we were sat by the fireplace and it was so so pretty, loved how quiet and classy it was The service was phenomenal, my water didn't get below 3/4 full at any point All the food was delicious but my favorite was the hamachi appetizer Didn't take photos of the dessert but the butterscotch ice cream was amazing, vanilla was okay (nothing special) My only critique is that our cappuccinos tastes sour which really threw me off. read more

Really nice, upscale establishment with food that matches the ambiance! I really liked this spot. My partner enjoyed his steak as well. Parking is nearby but it's a nice walk outdoors. Service here was excellent too, I wish I remembered our server's name (sexy lumberjack vibe). I would definitely come back here for a nice dinner in Vail! read more

Our family has eaten at some of the nicest restaurants in the world. We have tried every highest-end spot in Vail and Slope Room left us absolutely blown away. It was the highlight of our trip. The food was spectacular to say the least. We started with the duck appetizer and all agreed it was the greatest duck dish we've tried in 30 years of traveling the world. We then had the 20oz Bison Ribeye, the chicken dish and the pasta dish and we couldn't stop raving about how perfect they were. The chicken dish was easily the best I've ever had. I usually find chicken dishes horribly boring. This was ridiculously flavorful and so delicious. And we crushed the ribeye as a family. The Baked Alaskan we had for dessert too was perfectly built. The ambiance was lovely, sitting by a window and enjoying a gorgeous night. We are dreaming of coming back again as soon as possible! read more

Months after one of the best meals I've ever had in Vail, I just wanted to write a short review. Outstanding food, cocktails and service. Loved the Vesper cocktail. Fantastic short ribs! And friendly service. Already looking forward to going back next ski season! read more

Absolutely fantastic food, and the ambiance was beautiful. The service was good, but the waiter as getting a little annoyed with us. It's one of the best meals we had in Vail. Absolutely loved it. read more

We had a great experience here this week. We couldn't get in to Sweet Basil so asked the concierge for a recommendation. He suggested we go to Slope Room, and I'm glad we did! Our server (Diego?) was helpful and friendly, the ambience was cozy (despite the lovely high ceilings), and the food was really good. We had the hamachi crudo with some kind of delicious spicy pomegranate sauce, the excellently prepared Idaho trout, and a surprisingly tender elk. Even the cocktail (something with Indian spices) was yummy. read more

Wow! Compliments to the chef! Everything we tried full of flavor and with superb presentation. Well knowledgeably Staff and warm ambiance. Excellent choice of wine . Very family friendly with selection of kids meals. Do try their cod on bed of potatoes . I'd come back just for that! read more

Short: A beautiful, delicious, classic hallmark Vail spot. You'll definitely pay the price but won't be disappointed in the food quality. Love that they offer mock-tails! Long: 1) Service was great. Josh was very kind and explained menu items well. I think he got pulled in a few directions since they seemed to be short staffed for pre-season. There were no trash cans at the entrance, so my partner was stuck bringing in a red bull can he hadn't yet finished. Not something that was preferred in a nice(r) restaurant but we were hoping the server would have been able to take it at some point. Instead we were awkwardly approached with a glass of ice and a short "we don't allow outside drinks, here's a glass and I'll take your can" which was fine but incredibly awkward. 2) Ambiance was nice, the tables are a bit long to allow for the plate space but puts you a little far from someone across from you. It was pretty chilly, so bring a light sweater if you don't want to wear your coat. I was a bit disappointed in the lack of a coat check. If there is one, we were not offered it. Bathrooms are beautiful and offer soft towels for hand drying. 3) Food was very good. Surprisingly the $18 cornbread was in-fact worth $18. The butter is to die for and was an amazing breakfast in the morning. They pretty much served us a loaf of cornbread. Way more than we needed. We also had the steak tartare and that was very visually pleasing to accompany the great texture and taste. One of the better steak tartare's I've had. My partner had the pork chop which was ok, not mind blowing. The Brussel sprouts were cooked very well. The Mac and cheese is a MUST HAVE. I had the Lamb Ragu which was good but nothing to write home about. 4) Mock-tails - I was pleased to see these offered with some new types of alcohol-free alternatives. The "No-groni" is not worth it but the Raspberry Club is a MUST. So great. read more

We decided to come here due to all the recs via TikTok, yelp. The ambiance was great, we were seated promptly, and welcomed with smiles. We were immediately told the kitchen was "slammed" at 8:45pm, so we went ahead and ordered both apps and entrees. We received our apps about 30-40 minutes later. The Caesar and tuna tartar was delicious!! We then waited for almost another hour for the entrees!! We ordered the NY strip (tender and flavorful), the lamb ragu (had the flavor of a snowball from the mountains, topped with immense ricotta) and the chicken (flavorful as well). While waiting for our dishes, the waiter never really checked in about when the dishes were to arrive or asking if we wanted any other drinks in the meantime. We felt discarded if we're being completely honest. We simply wouldn't return because it was not worth the money or time. read more

The highlight was our amazing waitress Alex Dunning. She was efficient , knowledgeable helpful and personable. The service was exemplary..food was a let down as to previous experiences at this restaurant. read more

Meh. Food was ok. Salad sucked. Ribs were good but potatoes with it were crap. The sweat potatoe side was awesome. Pretty pricy.

Incredibly disappointed with our experience at the slope room. We had high expectations going into the night, we arrived 10 minutes before our reservation due to the late fee policy but were not sat until at least 15 minutes after our reservation. Our server dunja was incredibly dismissive and messed drink orders, which we were very understanding of, however an entree order was messed up, she offered no explanation and then came back with a bowl of soup instead. The entree eventually came out around 10-15 minutes later when everyone else was finished with their meals and was left uneaten. When we voiced concern about the entree being comped, she laughed and accused of us wanting the "entire meal comped" which was not the case. She then proceeded toll her eyes walk away, she took off the entree but threw the check on the table and stormed away. Food was amazing but for paying $700 for this meal we were incredibly disappointed in the service. read more

My husband and I came here for a decadent date night and it did not disappoint. We started with apps, the pork belly and the house made focaccia bread -- both were DIVINE. The service was also great, and the atmosphere was quiet, sophisticated, and the decor was gorgeous. For our entrees, we each got steak and we split some sides. We decided to do the flight of steak butters -- highly recommend a try, just once, for fun. read more

This place had a certain vibe that I could tell it was trying to persuade. The decoration and the way workers were dressed all matched. Although I wish the music was a little different. I just feel like it was out of place compared to the rest of the restaurant. Service and the food was great. I got a pork chop that had a very interesting field of flavor and it was very good. The only thing about the pork shop is that it was pretty chewy. Other than that, great place and would love to come again. read more

We sat in the front room with the amazing photography. I was recommended the chicken which did not disappoint. The level Of flavors were amazing. The venison was tender.

We made a reservation the morning of on open table for later that Thursday evening. This was my second time eating here - the food, and the service, are always spot-on. While the restaurant was pretty full, the lighting and separation between tables/booths creates a very intimate and cozy feeling. Our server was great and made drink and food recommendations that were spot on. I'm slowly getting better about eating beets - and can say this dish with the ricotta and walnuts was delicious (and made me want to eat more beets). The pork chop I had was amazing as well. Highly recommend if you're in the area, looking for a nice dinner and great cocktails! read more

The best restaurant we ate at in Vail. The food was so good we ate there twice- once at a table, and once at the bar. Both cases the food and service were excellent. The room is beautiful with a nice warm feeling. All the choices (there were 4 of us) were top notch. The best was the bison steak which is big enough to share, and the pasta with lamb rags. Great appetizers especially the scallops with grits. Desserts were all excellent and almost forgot the cocktails were great. This restaurant could be in a major foodie city and compete. I'm not sure how you cannot give 5 stars- great food, great service, lovely atmosphere. Go! read more

We popped into the slope room to have a quick bite after a long day of travel and it did not disappoint! We ordered a few of the smaller plates and shared because it was too hard to decide on what to order. Josh was an amazing server with lots of suggestions for us!! We order the sizzling wagu beef which you cook yourself on a hot stone at the table, garlic shrimp served on sourdough, crispy Brussels with charred lemon, and a sunflower kale Cesar salad. They even own their own coffee field in Ethiopia where they grow their own beans and then roast them locally in CO! Overall fantastic experience and we'll be back when visiting Vail. read more

We had a party of 6. Ambience of the restaurant is nice but food was subpar. Ordered the caesar salad and asked to add chicken, but was told I would have to order the additional chicken entree priced at $45. Ordered 4 steaks (all over $75) and none of them were cooked how they were ordered. The dry aged New York strip was $110 and came out completely raw. They took it back to the kitchen and supposedly cooked it more with it already cut open so it became tough and almost inedible. Sides were expensive and lackluster and served lukewarm. Server was very understanding, and removed the New York strip from the bill. read more

It's a really nice place for a fancy dinner and they do a good job of accommodating different group sizes. We were 13 of us in our group and they had made really nice arrangements to get us a good size table where we could all sit comfortably. The food wasn't all that and their servings are rather small. We ordered a few appetizers and an entree for each person and yet everyone was hungry. They are also very pricey so make sure to see their menu ahead of time. The biggest disappointment was that they didn't have their filet mignon, which is what most of us were looking forward to order. Their lightings aren't the greatest to take family pics. The hostess in the front was very friendly, however, our server didn't seem very interested to have much of a conversation. read more

I heard this place had incredible food so I was excited when a friend planned dinner for our group while staying in Vail. The menu is pricey which we obviously knew going in to dinner, so that was expected. They have a 3 course pre-fixe dinner which is only really good if you want dessert. We aren't huge dessert people so we ordered off the basic menu. We started with the shrimp appetizer which was the highlight of the meal for me. Large shrimp over sourdough bread in a garlic scampi butter sauce. It was truly an amazing appetizer. The drinks were so so. The extra dirty martinis didn't have hardly any olive juice in them. When ordering a second round, we had to ask to make them dirtier and then they arrived in smaller glasses. The elote old fashioned had a charred to pretty much burnt slice of corn on the cob in it that gave no flavor to the cocktail at all. When trying to eat the corn it was too burnt to eat. A good gimmick to get people to order it but not worth getting. Our dishes arrived and the server seemed confused. once all plates on the table we noticed how some of the same dishes were different proportion sized than others. For example my salmon looked to be about an 8oz portion, but others looked like 4oz. The 8oz wasn't even that much food but it was soaking in an absolutely delicious miso sauce that I could have drank. My husbands 24 hour beef short ribs were mostly fat, not a whole lot of meat to eat. Overall the food was okay. The service is the thing that really got me. Our server ( Kibo) was foreign and maybe there was a language barrier or something, but he was pretty curt with us on anything we asked. Many questions we asked him, he would simply say no and walk away. No smile, no greeting, no personality. The food runners were nicer than him. I agree with a 20% tip for larger parties, but sometimes I feel like they should actually earn that, not just expect it and treat people poorly. Overall, I would say this place is okay. I would go back for happy hour and get the shrimp again with some wine. Maybe next time I am in the Vail area. read more

Nice ambiance but recent visit had poor service with waiter who could care less we were there. Manager was accommodating and nice. The seafood fettuccine was tasty with a curry sauce . The truffle Mac and cheese had very strange taste and consistency and my son did not like it even after being away at camp. The children's menu had super small portions- 3 small bites of cauliflower as side. I guess this is Vail. read more

Had a lovely dinner here. The food was tasty although expect small portion sizes. I was going the chicken dish would have more gnocchi but there were less than a dozen pieces of it. Still both the chicken and pork chop were very flavorful and they had a great whiskey selection. We made a reservation but were told the bar was the only available seating. This was surprising given the restaurant appeared to be half empty. However the bar seating was pretty comfortable and attentive. Given the prices and crowds of Vail, I would go back here again however, if this was in Denver it would be a one and done read more

Came for drinks and apps before a local wedding. First off super cool place. Love the vibe. The staff was very friendly and attentive. Cocktails were on point. Especially loved the corn whisky one (don't recall the name). We had the tartare which was very solid and the charcuterie plate which was even better. It had all kinds of interesting surprised and fab cheeses and meats. Overall the atmosphere really caps it off. Will most def be back again. read more
