    Italian buffet
    Lisa L.

    I apologize for taking so long to leave this review. I am forever grateful to the chophouse for an incredible evening celebrating my son and daughter-in-law to be on the evening of August 29, 2024.. we were planning a destination wedding in Vail and I was in charge of the rehearsal dinner for 60 people and welcome party for 150 people. I had never been to Vail so most of the planning was site unseen. I worked with Stacy throughout the process and she continued to calm my nerves and make things easy for me. She helped me plan a beautiful Italian buffet, a nicely designed table layout, microphones for speeches, and the chophouse is very own homemade Limoncello at each place setting to cheers the special couple. She even brought in a chef from one of the Italian restaurants in the area to add a special touch to the meal. After dinner, we welcomed 150 guests with an incredible display of hors d'oeuvres and desserts. [[HIGHLIGHT]]The indoor area worked perfectly, the bartenders took care of our guests Incredibly and the indoor and outdoor space was just perfect.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] [[HIGHLIGHT]]Not to mention the beautiful view surrounding us.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] Again, I am forever grateful to Stacy and highly recommend the Vail Chophouse for any event. I also want to mention Joey. I met with him the day before the event to go over any last details. You could tell immediately from interaction with Joey and Stacy that they were very well-versed in putting together events like this. Their team of people did an excellent job. Don't hesitate to book this place if you have the opportunity. Love and respect to the Vail. Chophouse!

    Prime rib french dip
    Alli N.

    This place has it all! Delicious food, impeccable service and the views, well they just can't be beat! My boyfriend was out snowboarding and I got to enjoy a quiet lunch here, people watching and drinking with mountain views. Highly recommend the prime rib dip! If you're into horseradish sauce, get an extra on the side. I opted for that over dipping in the au jus. Also French onion soup was really good, probably 9/10 but would order again if I was craving it. Don't miss this spot!

    Pork shank
    Ken L.

    Nice, classy but not pretentious restaurant. The pork shank fall off the bone good though the grits were a bit of a surprise, not bad at all but in my mind I was expecting mash potatoes. The waitstaff was excellent!

    Overcooked salmon on bed of wild rice cooked al dente with micro greens and cranberry confit on top
    V H.

    Disappointed. Hotel concierge said this place was fine dining. Decent food. I had the sea bass, my husband had the NY strip and my daughter had the salmon. The salmon was a little on the overcooked side but everything else was wonderfully cooked, including the sweet potato fries. The place didn't seem so busy so I couldn't understand why they didn't allow us to dine earlier than 8:30pm which was a little late for us. Staff seemed to enjoy themselves more than ensuring patrons felt tended to, so it made the place less "fine dining" with professionalism. [[HIGHLIGHT]]Lighting was alright - could have been more festive considering it's the day after Christmas.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]]

    French Onion Soup, Ribeye split for two, sides of Brussels Sprouts, Mash & Lobster Mac with Bloody Merry.
    Anton B.

    This is a great place; Great View of the Ski Slope, good food and service. We were able to get a reservation on Open Table for same day. We ordered the steak to share and they split it in half and served us individually. The Brussel sprouts were some of the best we've had and the ribeye was perfect. The lobster Mac was just ok. The Spicy Bloody Merry with candied bacon was on point except for the huge celery stalk! Also this is a great place for few beers apres ski.

    Filet Mignon
    MaryJean Z.

    Very solid good food. Lobster Mac and cheese was fantastic good size pieces of lobster. Filet and NY pictured were very good with a compound butter. Green beans were solid but nothing special. Overall a good meal fantastic location. The food was reasonably fast. Looks like they have a set up for live music but there was no one playing. Outdoor and indoor seating. Drew our waiter was good!

    Colorado lamb chops! Best thing on the menu.
    Biru S.

    I really enjoyed my pilgrimage to the Vail Chop house. I came craving a rib eye but ended up having the Colorado lamb chops which were the best I ever had. [[HIGHLIGHT]]I met some really nice folks while eating at the bar and the service here was great.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] I got nicer photos on my proper camera but ended up attaching some basic photos off my iphone because it's easier. Wayne and Susie... it was a pleasure meeting you if you see this review .

    We had a great dinner that was close to perfect only complain I have is the oysters are a little small and steak had some minor issues but everything else was perfect

    Sking to drinking!
    Debra U.

    My friends and I always put this stop on our list for a good dinner, great drinks and awesome atmosphere. We love listening to Phil and the dollar game is FUN. We are always happy with our food. The bar mixology never disappoints a d add dancing. Just perfect for a night on the town. The TVs at the bar are a nice addition.

    Filet Mignon and French Fries
    Julianne S.

    We really enjoyed this restaurant, the ambience and service was great. It's a little more upscale and priced higher than some of the other places around this part of vail. Food tasted great as well, and my fillet was cooked. Perfect. My husband enjoyed the baby back ribs and the fries were a great side.

    **15/10; iconic, must be protected at all costs**…read more My girlfriend and I are in Vail for the weekend to watch dogs jump into water, as one does. We're staying at the Grand Hyatt, which has been... fine. Meh, if we're being honest. A local recommended Mountain Standard, so we tried to make a reservation on OpenTable and quickly learned they were booked solid until tomorrow (a great data point, btw). But, being the swarthy pirates that we are, we showed up anyway; and thank sweet baby Jesus, we found two seats at the bar. Our barkeep, Gummow, a fellow swarthy pirate, was excellent in every possible way. His bar back, Rowan, could not have been a better support man. Together, they delivered the kind of service that makes you remember why hospitality is an art form. And the food? Absolutely to die for. My girlfriend had the oxtail, and I had the mock paella. Both were incredible. The service, the food, the environment; every facet was dialed in. We will be going back tomorrow for lunch, possibly dinner, and possibly to inquire about monthly rent. As a former service industry worker myself, real recognize real. This place and these people are it. Mountain Standard is iconic and must be protected at all costs.

This place is popular as we walked by 45 minutes before and already a bunch waiting as they have great creek side seating for maybe 6 tables. If being a tourist you should walk by and check in for waiting list seating as this place can be crowded. We came early and sat in the bar and I found it pretty hospitable the bar staff especially Rohan was great and helped pick some local whiskey. Got seated when our guest arrived with great seating. The food was good although not memorable as what I expected. Hard to compare as one of my first times at Beaver Creek Village. I can definitely see dropping by the bar as I'm sure there wouldn't be the wait needed for tables

My girlfriend declared the salmon the best she has ever eaten. I chose the schnitzel, one of the chef's favorites, served with new potatoes and green beans. It was fantastic, and the portion was so generous that I took home enough for a second meal. The espresso martinis were outstanding as well. Be sure to save room for dessert.

All of the dishes were decent, but the prime rib--which I expected to be the highlight of the meal--turned out to be EXTREMELY tough. I struggled to slice it even with a steak knife, and it was also quite flavorless. I ended up leaving most of it unfinished, as shown in the photo. I had hoped the server would ask if anything was wrong with the dish after seeing so much of it left on the plate, but he didn't. Considering the quality, the prices were on the higher end. I'd recommend going somewhere else if you don't want to experience the worst prime rib dinner.

As anticipated, the place was gorgeous...with a slightly formal air. Given that it was in the Vail Village (near the ski slope), my husband was able to enter the place in his rugged ski suit. Despite the ambiance, it was a bit dead. I was disappointed with the lack of French music overhead...though maybe it was on so low, I didn't hear it? There were plenty of breakfast-brunch options, but on the menu, some items were noted as taking 20 minutes (which we didn't have time for!), so I was a tad bummed about that. In any case, my husband chose this Huckleberry Bacon French Toast, and I ordered the Maryland Crab Benedict. For drinks, we both just ordered plain coffee. As expected, the foods were good. I was more impressed with my husband's choice, this super-fancy french toast. Not only did it look amazing, it tasted spectacular! Mine was good, but disappointing at the same time. I really liked the Crab Benedict, but I only half-liked the side salad (basically just Arugula with a few Walnuts and Figs). The total bill for these items ran over 100 bucks... which, was to be expected in Vail. However, for such a pricey breakfast, I felt that I should have absolutely loved it...but it felt short of that. Overall, I just expected a bit more from this breakfast experience. Again, the decor was gorgeous, but the ambiance wasn't fully there (because of the lack of music?). Service felt a bit short-skimpy as well. Foods were good, but mine especially (Crab Benedict) felt a bit lacking. Let's just say that I've had Crab Benedicts as just as good for half the price...and with better sides. Maybe lunch or dinner experience is better here? In any case, am glad we checked out the place...but I doubt I'll choose it for breakfast again.

The others ordered trout, wiener schnitzel and the ribs. Everyone said their filet's were cooked correctly but all needed seasoning. The béarnaise sauce was light and tasty. The trout was good, ribs were good but not fall off the bone. The other person didn't care for the Wiener schnitzel. The spatzle was hard and crunchy. No flavor. None of us understood the side of scalloped potatoes and broccoli. The scalloped potatoes seamed like they came from a box. Then a few pieces of broccoli thrown on the plate.

Although Russell's is a nice restaurant and our server Bowen was excellent, the food is not on par with the prices.

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.

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.
