After reading all the reviews, I had higher expectations for Alpenrose. Service was pretty slow, but friendly, although I wish he had asked if we wanted dessert before just bringing our check. I ordered schnitzel, which came with spaetzle and 3 salads- cucumber, red cabbage, and potato. Hubby ordered the monte cristo, which also came with the salad trio. The... More

This is the first place we ate at when we visited Vail. We loved the German menu! Each entree came with a sampler of German salads: cabbage, cucumber, and potato. It has both indoor and outdoor seating with a great view of the mountain.

We love visiting this restaurant when we ski in Vail. We arrived without a reservation but were quickly seated. The wait staff was friendly and efficient. We ordered the Goulash and the Beef tips over Spatzle. The goulash was just a larger portion of the goulash soup and while tasty would not be something we ordered again. The beef tips... More

We lived in Germany so were really excited to try this place. Not really authentic; the waiter didn't know Hefe Weissen from Weiss Bier, the beer was cold...German bier is not served cold. The Goulash was too acidic and greasy, again not authentic. The desserts we had were delicious the pear almond tart was authentic. We were surprised that a... More

If you are a Swiss patriot you will not be disappointed. This is a must place to eat every time we go to Vail. The service staff was five star plus and will accommodate any number in your party. You may eat al fresco or inside whatever your pleasure. Menu selections of Swiss food abound. My mouth waters as I... More

Best value in Vail. Delicious, Brat and Beer lunch. Brat, sauerkraut, red cabbage, German potato salad, cucumber salad,, rolls and choice of beer, $12.95 in high season. Don't miss the Alpenrose when visiting Vail. The desserts are wonderful as is the mulled wine.

My family of 4 had dinner here and we all had great dishes. Lots of choices on the menu from soups and salads to various entrees. Moderately priced for vail. Approx $25-$30 per entree for each of us which was more than enough food. Take out deserts in the front, small bar and indoor/ outdoor seating. This was our favorite... More
