I seldom click on the fifth star, but our visit to Geronimo was so outstanding in every way that I couldn't stop myself. From the moment of entering the door, the staff was quietly and confidently helpful. We were immediately escorted to our table in a lovely, uncrowded (and quiet) room. Our waiters were knowledgeable and helpful with menu choices, accommodating special dietary needs and generally taking care of us. Finally and not least, the food was splendid with a number of innovative dishes along with several old favorites -- selecting just one entree was not easy. Overall it was a delightful experience, and one we hope to repeat before long.

Izanami did a great job on Thanksgiving Day! They took excellent care of us during our visit. My reason for the 4 stars for the food was because the pork was a bit dry and the cranberry sauce was too tart. But…the star of the day was the GF apple-ginger pie. The crust was divine. If the chef would give us the recipe, we would be so very appreciative! Overall, an excellent visit as always!

Santa Cafe provided us a warm and memorable Thanksgiving experience!! Our original plans were unexpectedly re-routed due to over two foot of snow in Telluride. Santa cafe was an unexpected and amazing surprise with the most savory and delicious food anyone could ever imagine and their staff giving up their Thanksgiving day to make ours special. Many thanks to all of you…and your hospitality, much appreciated! My husband enjoyed the calamari and I enjoyed the pillowy, pumpkin ravioli. This followed by the filet on celery root puree with scalloped stacked potato and herb side dish. I enjoyed the amazing bone in chop with some sort of pearl pasta in the most amazing wine reduction sauce! Waiter, somalier, stopped by and then the manager with a gift, it was a jar of hot rum mixture to take home and a sample at the table. It was delicious! Thank you for such a memorable experience!

We are Spanish and can verify that the food is authentic Spanish. The morcilla pinxtos were excellent, the lamb albondigas were bigger and tastier than we expected, and the baguette and olive oil were excellent. The espresso was also excellent.

The eggs Benedict and steak and eggs were excellent. Good salad dressing. Rather expensive and light on the hollandaise sauce, but of high quality. We were placed in a quiet seating area distant from a noisy crowd.
