    Wish I could have tried it. The reviews looked excellent here. The look is more bar vibe than restaurant. We couldn't seem to get anyone to acknowledge us to be seated. We were the only two people there, too. Finally left.

    I come to the Fitz every time in Vail. I love the patio. Great place before concerts at the Ford Amphitheater.

    The Fitz for happy hour is very special... the menu, ambience, service and entertainment on special days. Stop for a bite and drink prior your Amp concert.

    Came here for dinner after a hard day of snowboarding on Wednesday. I made reservations but honestly, it was pretty dead so you can just walk in. The restaurant is located inside a hotel and offered free parking inside the garage which is a plus in Vail. The food was great for the price. We got the poutine to share and it was amazing! Completely hit the spot. I had a burger with truffle tots and the tots were absolutely delicious! I highly recommend this place for dinner if you're ever in Vail for a ski vacation.

    Lovely patio

    Beautiful, peaceful patio overlooking the creek to enjoy a drink and a bite to eat. Flower boxes everywhere, very friendly, attentive service, and peaceful vibe. We enjoyed a Fire on the Mountain cocktail and martini, and split a Fitz burger with tater tots. Everything was excellent. Thoroughly enjoyable.

    We went here because they had reservations at the last minute. The whole staff was so friendly. They were getting ready to close for a month but still so accommodating for us. We had a nice relaxing date night. They let us take our time. We enjoyed the food and drinks and the view and it was very peaceful.

    We had dinner here two nights as we were staying at the Vail Manor Lodge. The food is always solid and the service is sometimes questionable. Great place to go to before a concert in Ford Amphitheater.

    Easily our favorite spot in Vail. In fact, we loved it so much we came here twice! Without naming names, we made it a priority to visit all of the "must go restaurants" in Vail during our recent ski trip. After building out our itinerary, we still had an open evening without a dinner reservation. After scrolling through Yelp, I came across an unassuming restaurant in a hotel a short walk from ours that seemed reasonably priced and unpretentious called The Fitz. There weren't a ton of reviews, but the reviews were really good. Even though no one I knew that frequently visited Vail had mentioned the Fitz, I went ahead an made a reservation. Thank goodness I did... this place was absolutely incredible and blew all the "must go" Vail restaurants out of the water. Service was phenomenal, friendly, and quick. The drinks were generous and delicious. Old Fashion was great. The different flavored Moscow Mules were great. However, their spicy margarita was the drink we couldn't stop ordering. Most importantly, their food was so so good. The cheese curds are a must get appetizer. The 10 oz flat iron was perfectly cooked, melted in your mouth, and was packed with flavor. Also really enjoyed the truffle Mac and cheese and the Brussel Sprouts. We loved this place so much, we cancelled our reservation for our last night and came here again. Couldn't recommend this place enough!

    Excited to have dinner here!

    Food was good but away from town and tucked in back of house with the bar. Service started out great and then our server just checked out.

    I was in the mood for some wine tasting and since I couldn't get to a vineyard. I decide to my own…read morewine tasting. Jeremy was very nice. He was not only our bartender but was also one of the owner along with Samantha who I got to meet for the first time. Everyone was so friendly and was definitely a win connoisseur. I love their happy hour from Vail. Everything was price reasonable. I love that you could get any wine for 3 ounce for half the price. That allowed me to try almost every wine on the list. Yes. I was very happy when I left It's definitely a hidden gem. Will try to come back!

    Visiting Vail for a quick getaway a few weekends ago made me realize (again) that this mountain…read moretown renowned for exhilarating outdoor activities is a foodie destination with so many options to choose from Michelin-recognized restaurants to something more casual. And to stumble upon this chic and inconspicuous cocktail bar in the busy downtown was something I wasn't expecting and became a treat after a nice stroll through the town after dinner in my hotel room. From the moment I stepped inside, I knew I was at the place where my heart was calling for. There were two gents at the bar and one of them warmly greeted me and said I could sit anywhere I would like. I hence picked one of the bar seats. Except one table that was occupied by a couple I was the only one. I appeared to have picked the right time; I had the whole bar to myself (eventually though, several different groups of people streamed in; only a few of them sat at the bar close to me. The bar was spacious enough to comfortably accommodate a little over 10 people.) Jeremy, who greeted me upon arrival, was a super host. As soon as I explained that wine is my usual got-to, he said he could mix and match reds and whites to create a "flight" based on what I had told him as to my likings. His extensive explanations as to what sorts of reds and whites the bar offers/serves was (of course) all in his memory. His eloquent speech with no filler words truly impressed me; he sure is a wine connoisseur. What he picked for me were... -2024 Pepiere "Les Gras Moutons" (Muscadet) -Kobal "Bajta", Hazole Belo (aka Orange Wine) -Sandlands "Red Table Wine (Lodi Red Blend) With his wealth of knowledge, after giving him only a hint of what I liked, what Jeremy selected for me to sample/sip was a superb choice. All of them were world-class excellence with elegance and beauty. I carefully and slowly sipped each one little by little to truly immerse myself in the art of wine. Yes, wine is a piece of art for sure. I think I said it correctly at the beginning of this review. This is a cocktail bar with variety of spirits which Jeremy could easily concoct just about anything from gin-based one to vodka-based one to tequila-based ones to whiskey-based one to name several. For those who don't drink, their zero-proof section also has something interesting to browse and choose. Not to mention, rotating pilsner or IPA on tap to name a few from the beer section as well. If you need a little bite to eat, their (changing) food menu has a good number of New American-style plates. The bar originally opened in a different building back in 2015 (I believe). They moved to the current location in 2019. They also offer various different classes so you can expand/extend your knowledge. So for your next foodie vacation in Vail, make sure to include Root & Flower in your list.

    Remedy Bar at the Four Seasons in Vail was such a lovely experience. The space itself felt light,…read moreairy, and relaxed. 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.

    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.

    Me and my family had an amazing time here after a long day of skiing we decided to get dinner here…read more Wow the food and vibes of the place were IT. Our server "Claudia" was a delight very insightful about the menu and we had an awesome conversation.

    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.
