• Nice Al Fresco environment.
• Snobby hostess, undercooked pasta.

“Perhaps the snobbiest restaurant in Aspen. Reservations would be recommended. We arrived, the hostess told us we could wait 15 to 20 minutes for an inside table or go sit under an umbrella by the hotel pool. I went out to look at the poolside tables (to see if they were worth the immediate seating), then came back in because I did not see any open tables. The hostess seemed very annoyed and reiterated her offer for an inside table. After we were eventually seated, our waitress arrived and took orders. The food was, overall, very good, although my ravioli was undercooked and not very warm. On average, a person would spend about twenty to twenty-five dollars on lunch (including tip). Unfortunately, someone made a bit of a poor call by using plastic plates fashioned to look like wood.”

• The presentation was outstanding and matched the flavors and taste.
• Our failure to order the extremely expensive wine rendered us invisible to the wait staff.

“The presentation is unique, artistic, beautiful. The food is beyond delicious. A very romantic decor, but the tables in the upper balcony are
<>close together and private conversations are impossible. Service was good until after the 4th time of being told that we did not want wine with our meal, the waiter decided to ignore us. Purchasing wine would have doubled the bill and their tip. We were left sitting with our dirty dishes for at least 20 minutes. I saw her approach our table at least 4 times only to turn on her heel and serve those around us or walk off altogether. The meal with 2 appetizers 2 entrees, 2 coffees and 1 dessert cost $30 tip, but considering the cost of everything else in Aspen, it was the very best value.”
