Best Casual Restaurants in Vail

Great place for American cuisine and a few drinks. Not a stuffy place, very welcoming regardless of apparel. The food was delicious, had the salmon and bourbon burger and loved them both. Will visit again!

Fabulous experience! Really attentive and sweet staff, never let a cup get halfway without refilling it with water and the food was lovely. I’ll be dreaming about the Caesar salad, but won’t miss the cappuccino.

Lancelot’s is one of the original Vail restaurants. There is a reason they have been in business all these years. The food is excellent and always consistent. While they are known for their prime rib, two of us had fish, one person had veal and the fourth had the best filet I have ever tasted! Upon arrival, the owner greets you and is very friendly and accommodating (someone came in and did not have a reservation yet he helped them out). Our server, Nina, was absolutely delightful and helped make our experience very enjoyable.

We came away from a Christmas dinner here truly wowed. The friendly server named Jamoy took us through the menu with care, providing his recommendations. We started the evening with cocktails, well-balanced and refined. The biscuit was as hands down one of the best things I’ve ever tasted! The pimento cheese was savoury and delicious. The tuna tataki was fresh and delicate. And the wood grilled pork chop was nothing short of a piece de resistance! This menu was inventive beyond expectation. The melange of flavours put this place near the top of the heap in all of Colorado, in my humble opinion. I can’t wait to come back. Gratitude to the chef, servers, and other staff who made this such a delightful experience.

My family & I had a lovely time last night !! Our waiter was Christian he did a fantastic job answering all of our questions & made great suggestions !
