Reviews of Mountain Standard (Restaurant)

Chris Wardman

Excellent menu and the best duck foie gras in Vale.

Indranil Ganguly

This place is so great that we had to break our holiday rules. Generally when we visit a new place every meal we try at a new place. However in this case out of our 6 meals in Vail, we had 5 here! Yes it was so good, appealed to entire family at the very first visit. Highly recommended by our Hotel concierge, and we found it so befitting as soon as entered. Menu is very simple to choose from but each and every dish (entree and appetizer) is so well prepared, presented, perfect in size and extremely delicious. We have no regret that we didn't try other so many restaurants in Vail :-) PS: Dont miss their southern pimento cheese from appetizer section.

Mitch Mensch

oh my god - 3 of us did drinks salads and appetizers and it was the best spent 2+ hrs - our waiter "Wavy Davy" was amazing explaining every dish as almost every comvo of ingredients was unique - we'd go back in a second

Shelly Floyd

Great view, food and service! Loved it!

Diane Barrington

Bartender had incredible menu knowledge. Recommended the chicken and it was delicious. BUT The butterscotch pudding dessert is one of the best things I've ever tasted in my entire life. !!

George Kassabov

Excellent! Excellent! U won't be disappointed! Everything was not just delicious, but memorable!!! Well done!

Travis Nilles

Great lunch place. The Burgers were fantastic, cooked to your liking. Drinks are good. The beer on tap was great! I had the onion rings on the side that had a great breading that had a kick! I would recommend going here!

Keng Hian Lim

Good service and atmosphere. Food is good too. Spicy BBQ chicken sandwich is great. Wedge salad with blue cheese is great.

Alexandra P

If you ever come here, get the bone marrow appetizer! It will blow your mind. Everything here is so delicious and rich in flavor. So many restaurants in Vail can be tourist traps with overpriced plates but you get your money worth here.

Amanda Herrera

This was a amazing place to eat in vail. We dined our on the patio and hearing the creek run while eating was very nice. All the staff was very nice a welcoming. We make a annual trip to vail and will add this to our list of regular places we go too. Food was amazing. Flavors plating all of it was superb!!!!

Eric Lind

Amazing meal, in particular the grilled octopus and Rocky Mountain trout, along with exceptional cocktails. Book reservations early or get there early on the day of to get a seat at the bar. Best restaurant in Vail.

Ed Emch

Fantastic restaurant. We really enjoyed it

Kim Tillinghast

Nice place - crazy busy

Doug M

Awesome food. Awesome service. One of my favorite places

Christian Birk

A great place where both food and cocktails are great. Hard to get a reservation, but you can do walk-ins for the bar. Highly recommended.

Creighton Shaffer

This place is awesome. They have great cocktails, oysters, salads, and sandwiches. Cobb salad was fantastic, made with a homemade ranch that was great. Burger was one of the best I’ve had, perfectly cooked and all toppings were fresh and crisp. Added cheddar and bacon, it was incredible. Don’t pass this place up, it’s well worth the wait!

Teresa Casalino

Best food here! The pate, the mushrooms on toast, whatever I ate there was delicious. I don't like "smoked" food but this was legitimately deliciously smoked. It did not upset my stomach, I wasn't burping up any sweet smokey burps. The food was savory! The paste was genius and the bread perfect!

Armistead Browning

We've been there several times and they are great!

Bruce Cavan

Always tasty with good craft beers and service. Sit at the bar. Always busy.

Jamie Cheesman

Awful customer service!!! I am not willing to order off a limited menu for a party of 18. It requires a three-course meal and I need vegetarian options for a couple of our attendees... Called and after asking to talk to a manager, the hostess deliberately hung up on me! Complete lack of professionality!!!

Kathryn Hagerty

Fantastic restaurant. We made a reservation and got there about 20 minutes early to hang out at the bar. Fairly crowded, but the cocktails were delicious and wine list good. The salmon was incredible - well cooked with nicely dressed roasted brussel sprouts and sweet potatoes. Bread pudding dessert was very tasty. Great service.

Chris Geltz

Top notch food and drink

Murfam Post

Top level service and food. The Turkey Club, no ordinary club. Martin’s Soon-To-Be Famous Green Chili were all amazing. The location, formerly Blues, sits on an lazy stream along a shopping district. The Rotisserie Cauliflower was unlike any I have ever had.....just....Oh My!

Don DeFord

We only had hourduvers but they were all very good

Christopher J

Oysters were very good, a choice of east or west coast. We did 50/50. Green Chic pea hummus was great, burger good.

Lin Ob

Had to edit this review. Went here recently again and out of the several times I have been here I was blown away last time so I left a 5-star review. There was a problem with my order this time, the whole situation became very awkward. The waitress asked me to separate one of the two main items on the dish by myself and put it in a separate dish for them to remake. Weird!!! Just take the whole thing back and present me with a proper dish ! This is not a Chili's or Applebee's. They claim to have a real Chef, not sure about that now. It still did not come out right and in the meanwhile the main item became cold while waiting for them to remake the other half. They only comped a few bucks. No problem, I come here many times but will now go somewhere else along with the many friends we often dine here with, and gift certs we buy in the holidays. I have been here many times. The first couple times it was so so the last time I was really blown away and we thoroughly enjoyed our meal. Not sure if anything changed or if I just ordered better. The lunch Peri-Peri chicken is actually spicy which I loved

Julie Ahearn

Always a favorite in Vail Village. Great everything - service, food, drinks, vibe. Definitely make a reservation as it’s always packed. Must try: pimento cheese (with extra bread), pork shank, plus new additions to the menu - hummus and prime rib (easily split between two and they will plate it separately

Karen Smith

The most amazing food & special flavors! Service fantastic as well!!

Jeff Pawloski

Fantastic food and atmosphere

Russel Elkan

Poor service cold food... would not go back..

Jillian Battis

I love this place! Appetizers, mains, & drinks are all excellent. Service is great too.

Marcus Stevens

Always excellent. Great vibe, awesome food. We come here every time we are in vail!

Vivian Pan

Service was amazing! Food was equally as amazing! The lamb tartare and wine were so good! I can't wait to go back here when I come back to Vail.

Josh Evans

Cozy and delicious!

Devin Dozier

Mmm, mountain standard

nick berg

Delicious food, amazing atmosphere and the staff was super friendly! I would definitely recommend this place to all my friends.

linchikas .

MS has maintained high gastro standards for years. We didn't have a reservation for lunch and didn't want to wait several hours for the table, hence had our lunch at a bar. Salads, sandwiches and the rest of the menu is tasty and well done. The service wa attentive and we will always be back, when in the area.

Russell Creed

Excellent food. Excellent cocktails. Excellent service .

Daniele Bartolo Polito

Expensive!!!!! Overrated!!! A quality sandwich place??? Oh, Come on, you served me the Jamon Iberico and you called jambon in French!! No comment... At the question the waitress did not know what to answer me...embarrassing! No a slices of bread or a cracker or so to accompain the board of cured meat for 17$ and the Parma prosciutto, not ham, but prosciutto please was not even do, as it was salty and peppery instead of sweet....leave it please!!!!! I pay the "kitchen sauce" and just a loud aohw, the chef did not even pass by the table to say anything, maybe cause I commented the bread pudding dry and tasteless and the sauce was not even enough for half of it...........

Lena S

2 stars off for that “Vail attitude” (seems like the staff gets really tired of tourists and can’t even hide it) and very salty entree. Remarkable olives, and the rest of the starters were great. Perhaps, next time we would hear about the specials because the waiter actually bothered to open that morning email and read it. I worked in fine dining in my twenties, and I can’t imagine telling my customers that yeah, btw there are some specials but I forgot to read the email...

Emma Saras

It is a nice place, but it is also expensive for the portions of food they serve. One of the things i ordered was king grab expecting to see something nice. It was 4 crab legs on a bowl of ice. 28$ for that im pretty sure is kinda of expensive. Again. Its a beautiful place to eat and the serves is awesome, but i left the restaurant hungry.

Jeremy Baker

Great ambiance and ok food. Attentive service.

Glenn Jones

Great food and very friendly staff!

Anna Scheuler

Had a DELICIOUS dinner here. The octopus appetizer was yummy. It came with garnishes that provided a nice balance to the sauce. I had never had lamb before and our waitress convinced me to try it. She even assured me that if I didn't like it, they would help get me something I would like. It was PHENOMENAL. It was cooked perfectly, had nice seasoning and had a great side of sweet peppers. The Rocky Mountain trout had a delicious sauce and was complimented by the mushrooms and dried veggies. Overall the service was great and all the dishes I tasted were delicious. My group got to sit in the outdoor section which had a nice view of the creek. I would definitely return to try other things.

Matt Monahan

Got seated before the dinner rush, at the booth in the back corner by the service bar and wine room. Plenty of knocking, and half hazard comraderie amongst the staff...as industry workers go it was homey, as dining experience goes the few small bites sufficed. On to Sweet Basil (Sister restaurant) for Entrees

Chris Gaun

Great lunch sandwiches, kids meals, entrees and full bar.

Alicia Robinson

The grilled octopus and olives from the appetizer menu were phenomenal with tonnes of flavor in every bite but there wasn't an overflow with the portion sizes that made us regret ordering entrees. The fish entrees were very flavorful but my husband's bass was particularly delicious.

Jennifer Simon

By far my favorite meal of our trip to Vail. Be sure to get your picture taken outside at the creek. So pretty!

A.B. Maynard IV

Awesome food, and even better service

Gal Zohar

So far this is the best food we found in Vail! Everything was top notch. Seriously good food with amazing attention to detail.

Tim Compton

Excellent club sandwich, juiciest ever. Onion rings are nice and crispy, beautiful venue.

antonio cecchi

Wonderful food and a great vibe

Rob Gregg

Excellent cuisine. Great service. High energy. Love it.

Matt Smith

Upscale, mountain/rustic casual dining at it's best. One of the places that are an absolute must when visiting the valley. The atmosphere is fun and laid back, the food - deliciously wood fired and prepared in an open kitchen design. Possibly the best meal you'll have all week. Don't sleep on the Pimento Cheese or Standard Wedge; paired with any of the tasty main dishes, you're in for a showcase of flavor

Tatjana J

Rustic and relaxed setting tavern where you can find delicious food cooked in traditional way using wood fire. The Optimus prime rib is a must try

Kristen K

Phenomenal food, from appetizers to main dishes. The chef and cooks have a flair for flavor that use unique ingredients together that create a party in your mouth, in all of their dishes. The staff is exceptional.

Cindy White

Make sure you have a reservation or you have to wait about 30 min. This goes for the bar area as well. Food is great! Very expensive for the amount you get.

Jared Goodman

Been many times and always great

Mark Newnham

I've been to this restaurant twice, a year apart and I was absolutely overwhelmed by quality of the food. The house manager recommend taking a table at the bar to avoid having to wait for a table for 2. If anything, it made the visit even more enjoyable, watching the bar staff at work. If you had any doubts, they absolutely know what they are doing.

Donnie Ozenne

Great place to grab some grub down in Vail. Has full bar staff was very friendly and young. The atmosphere was great and we hit it on a Thursday night and it was pretty upbeat. Definitely would go back again and even my kids enjoy the food and they're picky eaters.

D T

The food is amazing. One of the best steaks I’ve ever had. The service is 100 points. The ambiance is fun and casual The decor is cozy and very well done. I would recommend this restaurant for sure.

Brett Stephen

The service and food here are amazing. - Quick story of our experience - We brought 2 of our kiddos here and they really wanted to color some dinosaur pictures. They didnt have any dinosaur pictures at the host stand so, Donovan, the manager actually went and printed some dino pics for them to color. The staff here went above and beyond for us and our experience. We highly recommend Mountain Standard and will definitely be coming back.

Joseph Principe

WOW! Damn delicious.

Moon Duchess

Went here for a date night for the first time and was very impressed. The service was on point, I couldn't believe how fast they got our order out. The decor was rustic, chic, and romantic. I felt like the food far surpassed the price point, so you're more than getting your money's worth. The apple bread puddin was insanely decadent and delicious!

Kathleen Gray

The bar was rocking, excellent service

Michael Blanchard

Outstanding food and service, love this place!

Samiya Akhtar

Tried their salmon entree and butternut squash hummus, both absolutely fantastic

Erica Hartley

Best restaurant in town hands down! Went to dinner here twice in a one-week trip. The service is top-notch and the food is unreal! Highly recommend this restaurant to anyone visiting Vail and can't wait to come back

Rebecca Bass

We have eaten here for many years and it was really great. This year I felt the choices weren't as good as before and the drinks were not as good either. Sorry, hope this let's you know you may want to rethink some changes you've made.

Bright Star

This is an amazing place. The food was imaginative, visually appealing, with great flavors. The sweet pea hummus is too die for! The atmosphere is wonderful with the stream in the background. Adam, our waiter, was excellent; very knowledgeable, interesting & personable. Definitely an AAA+ experience!!

W E

Great spot...onion rings wedge salad, turkey club.. all excellent

Shari Gordon

We had lunch here about a week ago. I had the chicken which was very tasty, my mom had the burger, loaded. It was delicious, but it wasn't until we left that she realized there was no cheese on it and she paid $2 for it. She kept talking about it. Server wasn't as attentive as we would have liked. But still, great location and ambiance, very comfortable, food was terrific and we would return.

Kimberly Chaffin

Slow service, pretty good food, comparable prices to surrounding dining options. Would consider eating here again on a less busy night

Christopher Massaro

Best food in Vail, and great service. Grit did a fantastic job waiting on us and recommending the best things on the menu. Highlight of my trip.

Matt Pankau

Unbelievable. Don't leave Vail without trying this place.

Michael Teahan

The best dining experience in Vail! Mark our waiter was exceptional. The salmon and the pork shank were awesome. Very much recommend Mountain Standard.

Aleksey Bakharev

Foodie paradise, although quite expensive. Book ahead of time, really hard to get into. Casual atmosphere. Solid beers and wine. Bone marrow appetizer was great.

Benjamin Powell

Terrific food and drinks. Great atmosphere and staff. The bar makes a pretty killer old fashion. The ham biscuits are a great starter. The pork shanks tasted like they were slow smoked and fell off the bone. Must eat here

Maryam AlAwadhi

Delicious food in a cozy restaurant.

Jessica Long

Nathan Keil

Stopped in yesterday (9/27) for a quick bite and a drink while on a one day vacation from Denver on the recommendation of a friend. Was immediately greeted with a smile. Great environment, clean restaurant. I sat at the bar, Logan (??) was very attentive and friendly. I had the el Diablo sandwich and it was delicious. 10/10 would stop in again.

Very good an busy even during slow season.

Jack Douglas

Sooooo good and Jami Harper was absolutely the best cook she made my meal to perfection

Juice Blare

Wonderful! Most definitely a wonderful place it was a great experience I would most definitely come back here again and again and again and I will invite people to come here because it is definitely worth the time and the service and just having people be Hands-On when you need them immediately it's just a great experience overall Bravo ok!

Anna Borg

Went to this place twice while in Vail because the first time was so good! We ordered the chef special, and it was amazing. Can't wait to go again the next time we are back in Vail!

Joshua Weiser

Excellent food. One of the more down to earth places in the Vail village, which I appreciated. Just know that there is no parking for this spot or pretty much anywhere in Vail village, but you can drop people off fairly nearby.

Gina L

So amazing! From pimento cheese to chaco tacos!

Peter Kreinheder

Just returned this season for the chicken mouse and turkey club. Charles our server. One of the best service experiences ever. Congratulations.

Marius McAteer

First time in Vail and this spot had the highest rating and most reviews so decided to give it a whirl. Man, A-1 service and food quality all the way. New England clam chowder to start off tasted like it was whipped up in Boston harbor. Got the Pho-French dip for lunch and the beef just melts. Craft beer was good as well. Staff made it the experience quite enjoyable

Michael Black

We popped in for lunch. Apparently we were lucky to get in without reservations. The place quickly filled up and had a line at the door. We started with the mushroom toast which was absolutely amazing. My wife and I both had the El Diablo chicken sandwich which was also very good. We got kind-of skimpy chicken (as in the chicken was very thin inside the breading) so it lacked a little flavor in that regard, but overall it was fantastic. We'll definitely be back!

Stephanie Chenevert

This place was almost awesome ... The food was excellent, but we had to ask several times for water (upon arrival), and it felt like we were forgotten at times... Super friendly and would recommend.

Trevor Ten Brink

Great food with the service to match! We enjoyed the tuna cruda, the pimento cheese, the bone marrow, and the chicken entree. The bone marrow was just okay. Everything else was awesome. The chicken in particular was fantastic. The flavor of the banana molé perfectly complimented the smoker rotisserie chicken and the yucca fries. Well done!

Craig Woods

PORK SHANK! Love the food and the margaritas! Great service and cozy dining room.

Christine Weber

Attentive staff. Phenomenal service. Fantastic food. The shrimp po boy was flavorful-the smokiness of the shrimp was balanced perfectly with the slaw, green tomato and heat. And the dessert was to die for! Apple bread pudding with house-made brown butter ice cream drizzled with caramel and garnished with an abundance of hazelnuts. YUM!

Jacquelyn Ferrito

Amazingly delicious food. Wish we had more friends in the area we could recommend the restaurant too. The bartenders are also artists as the drinks were artfully and perfectly prepared. Chicken liver was one of my all time favorite dishes. Definitely recommend!

Jonathan Blackwell

We only had a short trip planned to Vail, but the Mountain Standard was the place we went there for a summertime excursion. Right on the river down the stairs from the children's play fountain on the main path, Mountain Standard is very well staffed and always has something interesting on the menu. The table next to us had the King Crab, and we shared the Ahi Tuna Crudo, buttermilk biscuits with sea salt and cured ham, and "the best wedge salad in America" as one fine diner stated. Go between lunch and dinner or make a reservation for busier times.

Karen Lester

Great space. Delicious food. One of the main places we eat when we go to Vail!

JA

Great spot! Stopped by for beer and snacks during bad weather great snacks and great service by Keith!

Gayana Grigoryan

Very delicious lunch here. Liked the vibe. Struggled to find it a bit because Google kept sending me to the main path and didn't understand that we were in a village, but keep looking. It was definitely worth it.

Ioana Neagu

Delicious and super friendly service. We tried the Diablo chicken sandwich and the rotisserie chicken salad. Both absolutely delicious!!! We also had their berry lemonade which was tart, not sweet and actually delicious.

dellana tafoya

I HIGHLY DO NOT RECOMMEND this place $140.00 for regular sized burger after i asked what is their biggest burger , they got my order wrong , the fries are extremely small burn and stail

Leopoldo Rodriguez

They have some of the best specials around

Maximiliano Valdes

Love the crudos here, also the bike marrow, great place

DAVID Prendergast

Great service, good bar food.

Ben Blonder

Oh fantastic food and fantastic cocktails.. service was over the top good!! Love love that place!

Bruce Hrabak

The entrees are incredible. The mix of flavor, color and texture is perfect. I love getting a meal where the chef is an artist mixing just three right flavors on the tongue. Our wait was very short and the seat by the river was perfect. All in all will definitely be back.

Vadim M

Good food and service, overpriced as almost everything in Vail, but it should be expected.

Paul Helmbold

Though a little pricey, the food and cocktails are the best anywhere.

Kelby Schuetz

What a fantastic meal. Everything was delicious, especially the kale salad and chicken liver pate. Our server Eryn was amazing and very informative. We will definitely be back!

Beth Mark

Great food especially the olives

Tony Berkman

Delicious shrimp fritters and excellent cocktail selection. Friendly staff.

Gabriel Villegas

Love it. Great food, great environment

Cameron J Brown

Best lunch in town

Thomas S. Mackie III

Great experience. We didn't make reservations on a Saturday night and they were completely booked (whoops). We were pleasantly surprised that the bar staff runs their own waitlist and it was only about 30 minutes before we got seats. The staff was fantastic and the food was really good. I loved the bar vibes and even with other people waiting for tables around us we didn't feel rushed or crowded at all. My favorite dishes were the Lamb Tartare and surprisingly the biscuit, but there were tons of things we didn't get the chance to try. Will be back next time we're in Vail!

Trip Wynne

Delicious burgers on toasty buns and juicy beef, with a beautiful river running through the area.

Jon Foley

I’ll preface that I didn’t eat here, but that is because the host staff was rude and deceptive. We called twice to make sure they had space for 4 of us to come in and were told “yes we have availability, come on over”. When we got there we were then told we could only sit on the wet patio outside. We told them we had just called and they said they had availability. The hostess replied ‘yes availability outside’ Why not just say, “yes we have seating outside’ when we called - before we made the walk over?

Greg Czech

Food was excellent, thought wine price of 17 for basic house wine was high

Anna DeWald

Slow service, forgetful staff, set with empty plates before us for quite some time. Food was alright. Unfortunately one of the few places that was open off season.

Natalie McBride

This place has a lot of ambiance and makes for a nice night out. Food was delicious and portions were pretty sizeable. It's on the pricier side but not as bad as some other places in Vail. If you like olives they have a very nice appetizer. Also their chicken was amazing!

Ellen Simon

OMG! Try the bone marrow appetizer and the beef cheek! Aidios! Mahita!

Melanie S

We sat outside, and it was beautiful! Right near the water, amazing food, and equally great service! Really wonderful way to end the day in Vail

Nader Banilohi

Great steak place in Vail! The bone marrow is a must try on the menu! Very underrated dish on the menu! Perfect place to bring a date! However, be ready to fork out some money because nothing is cheap here!

Jack Douglas

Sooooo good and Jami Harper was absolutely the best cook she made my meal to perfection

Juice Blare

Wonderful! Most definitely a wonderful place it was a great experience I would most definitely come back here again and again and again and I will invite people to come here because it is definitely worth the time and the service and just having people be Hands-On when you need them immediately it's just a great experience overall Bravo ok!

Anna Borg

Went to this place twice while in Vail because the first time was so good! We ordered the chef special, and it was amazing. Can't wait to go again the next time we are back in Vail!

Greg Moore

Love the food, fantastic cocktails, and the service is premium.

Joshua Weiser

Excellent food. One of the more down to earth places in the Vail village, which I appreciated. Just know that there is no parking for this spot or pretty much anywhere in Vail village, but you can drop people off fairly nearby.

Gina L

So amazing! From pimento cheese to chaco tacos!

Peter Kreinheder

Just returned this season for the chicken mouse and turkey club. Charles our server. One of the best service experiences ever. Congratulations.

Marius McAteer

First time in Vail and this spot had the highest rating and most reviews so decided to give it a whirl. Man, A-1 service and food quality all the way. New England clam chowder to start off tasted like it was whipped up in Boston harbor. Got the Pho-French dip for lunch and the beef just melts. Craft beer was good as well. Staff made it the experience quite enjoyable

Michael Black

We popped in for lunch. Apparently we were lucky to get in without reservations. The place quickly filled up and had a line at the door. We started with the mushroom toast which was absolutely amazing. My wife and I both had the El Diablo chicken sandwich which was also very good. We got kind-of skimpy chicken (as in the chicken was very thin inside the breading) so it lacked a little flavor in that regard, but overall it was fantastic. We'll definitely be back!

Stephanie Chenevert

This place was almost awesome ... The food was excellent, but we had to ask several times for water (upon arrival), and it felt like we were forgotten at times... Super friendly and would recommend.

Trevor Ten Brink

Great food with the service to match! We enjoyed the tuna cruda, the pimento cheese, the bone marrow, and the chicken entree. The bone marrow was just okay. Everything else was awesome. The chicken in particular was fantastic. The flavor of the banana molé perfectly complimented the smoker rotisserie chicken and the yucca fries. Well done!

Craig Woods

PORK SHANK! Love the food and the margaritas! Great service and cozy dining room.

Christine Weber

Attentive staff. Phenomenal service. Fantastic food. The shrimp po boy was flavorful-the smokiness of the shrimp was balanced perfectly with the slaw, green tomato and heat. And the dessert was to die for! Apple bread pudding with house-made brown butter ice cream drizzled with caramel and garnished with an abundance of hazelnuts. YUM!

Jacquelyn Ferrito

Amazingly delicious food. Wish we had more friends in the area we could recommend the restaurant too. The bartenders are also artists as the drinks were artfully and perfectly prepared. Chicken liver was one of my all time favorite dishes. Definitely recommend!

Jonathan Blackwell

Christina Bergmann

We went there after reading the reviews for our 35th anniversary. My husband ordered the chicken and I ordered the trout. My husband got a biscuit and this should have been a clue it was so gross and smelled like vinegar. Who could eat a biscuit with vinegar jam? Plain nasty! He has been sick all night. The chicken was covered with white yogurt white cream all over and was super spicy like horseradish sauce. I suggested he send it back but being a man, he decided to suck it up and has been ill all night. The trout was just ok nothing special. It was like in a bowl of broth and seemed like boiled. Kind of gross. So our Anniversary dinner was over $100 and we both are feeling queezy. What a disaster! Definitely would not recommend.

May be we came at the wrong time - food very average. Price expensive. Staff awesome!!

Anthony Sicola

We had an awesome dinner at Mountain Standard! We walked in without a reservation and needed to wait about 15 minutes for a table. We hit up the bar and had a nice conversation with the bartender about bourbon and he ended up making us the most amazing Manhattan and Old Fashioned we've had in a while. We were seated outside while the Tuesday race series was going on and we watched while we ate pimento cheese and peel and eat shrimp. The waiter was super cool about letting us enjoy our food and wasn't trying to rush us to order our entrees. We ended up ordering the pork shank served over mashed potatoes and the hangar steak, along with the requisite glasses of wine to go along with them. Dessert looked amazing, but ended up passing on that. Mountain Standard was an enjoyable place to eat with awesome staff. Highly recommended!

Nicholas Simpson

Really cute place. Reasonably priced for Vail. I can totally see myself eating here often! Service is outstanding!

Randi Freyer

food was ok overpriced not a great place for groups bigger than 4

Alexa Andre

So effing good. Awesome food, worth every penny Cassie (our waitress) was amazing We had the pepper cheese appetizer, I had the catch of the day and it was god-like. For dessert (even though we were stuffed) we had this chocolate pie with ice cream. Can't wait to be back

Анна Голик

Pork shank with cabbage

Richard Struble

Great place to hang out and have a drink. Friendly staff as well.

Max Biller

Very good food. Some dishes are really creative - and taste great. Nice service at the Bar, good Drinks. What do you need more?

Ethan Tidwell

Absolutely delicious food for decent prices. The drinks on the other hand....... a bit pricey.

Becky Creighton

The food is really good and the service was personable. Billy was our server and he was great, made us feel very welcomed and was attentive. Great wine selection too.

Kyle Bartlett

Nice ambiance, close to the creek with outside and inside seating. Had the octopus appetizer, chicken and the salmon entrees. Very flavorful food. Price seemed on par with surrounding restaursnts

Steve Evans

Well made cocktails, cool atmosphere and the staff was very attentive. The menu is delicious and unique.

Nicci and John Sutliff

Usually a stellar place. Hostess was rude and our food was sub par. Will try it again as it has been a favorite.

Jennifer Rossman

We had the pimento cheese and biscuit apps, trout, and Nashville hot chicken sandwich during lunch service. The location along the river in Vail Village is lovely, and if it’s patio weather, you can’t beat the location. The vibe is relaxed, modern, polished. Great drinks menu, but the pimento cheese is the only thing worth noting. The trout was under seasoned and the hot sauce on the sandwich was too oily. Unique options but not worth the price, even for Vail. I would come back for happy hour for apps/drinks.

Vikramsingh Solanki

Wait times are long but the wait is worth for the food and cocktails. The price is bit high but being in Vail it's standard pricing for all restaurants around. We ordered trout, crab cakes, few cocktails. Ambience and vibes was really great. Good place to have some cozy time.

A H

This whole experience was life changing for me. The service was phenomenal and everything that I ordered was beyond anything that I’ve ever imagined. I ordered the pork shank and omgggggg wtfffffff

Kelli Meador

Technically we came during "off season". The restaurant itself is cute, located right off the creek. When you walk in your welcomed by warmth and the amazing smell of fired wood. I had the steak and my spouse had the pork shank, we shared the brussel sprouts. The food was delicious, the shank was out of this world and the steak came in a close second. The sprouts were crispy with a delicious peanut citrus vinaigrette glaze. We would definitely come back again.

Aisha Niehaus

Great food and staff

Remington Johnson

Great service, excellent staff and food. For sure try the shrimp grits, it definitely will knock your socks off.

James Kemp

Absolutely delicious. The bone marrow appetizer was the star of the show, besides our waitress Cassie who kept the drinks full and the food coming quickly / correctly.

Sarah

I was very excited to try this restaurant, as it had many great reviews, but it definitely was a let down. I think this restaurant tried too hard to have an edgy mixture of flavors, but they just didn’t blend well. Out of the 4 of us, no one really liked their meal. I did like the atmosphere and location, though. There was a great selection of drinks, as well.

Christopher John Lindstrom

Delicious and off the hook cuisine for the critical palates out there. I have rated them before and the kitchen takes the time with all dishes to create a refined culinary experience. You will not be disappointed with anything on the menu.

Alison Diven

We loved our first meal here so much that we came back the next day. It was by far our favorite restaurant in Vail. The food is so creative and flavorful, and the service and ambience were great too. I especially enjoyed eating midweek lunch on the patio for a relaxed vibe.

Mark Zimmerman

The manager ... not the hostess or the waitress... the manager lied to us. Think about that, because this is an expensive place, and supposed to be nice. I wouldn’t blame the staff, because they lied on behalf of the manager. We liked the food, and the service is good. We sat at a table that was not level, Asked to be moved, and we were lied to that no other tables were available. When we talked to the people who got a table that was available, they verified that the manager had lied to us. As a business owners, my girlfriend and I would want to know that a manager was lying to our customers. Owners of Mountain standard, are you there??? If I were you I would want to know. Fire the manager. He sucks. I came back from the bathroom to find him arguing with my girlfriend. Give me a break. Mark Zimmerman Zimmerman Metals

Joshua Swanson

We had a great meal and they where awesome with our kids. We visited during the GoPro games and they town was packed but they handled it with no issues.

Seth George

My mouth was watering as soon as we walked in, and the "Pho-rench dip" did not disappoint. Not the easiest to find if you aren't used to Vail, but absolutely worth the five extra minutes to find it.

Spencer Dierenfield

Great service with a nice view of the river! Relaxing but upbeat and vibrant!

Bryan Van Blair

Simply fantastic! Everything here was great. You will enjoy the place. We had the trout, quail, monkfish and a few deserts. This place really puts forth the extra effort to make sure you have a nice experience. If you are looking for a wonderful place to eat in Vail this is the one.

Ross Bentzler

Good food and service. We went for lunch, they didn't have the largest menu I have seen but everything looked really good. The shrimp po boy was good and was more of what I would think a mountain take on a PO boy would be. The sauce and grilled shrimp had a more BBQ style taste then a traditional PO boy

Dion Lomax

My friends and I visited for restaurant week and we each tried something different. Each meal was prepared perfectly and the ambience was perfect. The open kitchen adds to the experience. I will definitely go back.

paul biggs

Very popular spot due to the creative and delicious food offerings. Be sure and get reservation unless you don’t mind waiting.

Clark Mercer

Great meal, consistently good service. Excellent options for everyone, 6 of us. Enjoyed the drink options.

Karen Torres

The clam chowder was delicious! So was the lamb tartare and octopus appetizers.

Stewart Johnson

My new favorite place to eat in Vail.

Chris Kesler

Interesting menu, very unique flavors, it was fun to see the kitchen staff working. Our waitress was surprisingly rude. Funny how poor service can ruin a meal

Dillon Leitner

This place is great! Great cocktails, great food, and great setting right on the creek. Portions were pretty big and food was flavorful. My only knock was our server was either too busy or didn't care about us. The guy who filled our water answered all our questions and took our appetizer order. Try the bone marrow and tots!

Greg Calhoun

Great service and phenomenal food! Abby made the whole experience exceptional!

Amy Kilgore
