Our waiter was trying his best, but what kept coming out of the kitchen was either overcooked or ill prepared. The setting and location are great, but the management is what is really spoiling this place. I highly recommend going ANYWHERE else. Don't waste your money or your time. more

I was with a rather large group who dined at this establishment and while the wait staff was great, very helpful and friendly-- the service was poor because of the amount of time it took to get our food. We received our courses out of order and the portions were disgustingly large. I made the mistake of ordering the salmon... more

My wife and I dined at The Chophouse in Lionshead last night. We had an outdoor table at 6:30pm. The weather and setting was perfect at the base of the ski mountain. Service was excellent and we enjoyed our food. My wife had grilled shrimp with polenta and I had a mixed grill or lamb, halibut and sausage. I also... more

Considering the price of a meal at this restaurant, the service and ambience are definitely lacking. I would recommend lunch, not dinner at this restaurant. The soup was excellent. wouldn't bother with the wine, since their selection is not good. For lunch, I would go to Pepi's in Vail Village! more

They surprised us in every possible way! This is definitely the first time that we did not finish our food at the restaurant that you pay $30/plate. The Cesar salad was salty, crab cakes did not have any crabs whatsoever, clam linguini dish – I still can taste it and not in a good way! Unbelievable! There were some rotten... more

I was excited to finally try the Vail Chophouse and unfortunately left very dissapointed. Although we had terrific service, the food was simply terrible. I ordered my Filet medium but what I recieved would have been better used on the nearby ice rink. I was shocked that a restraunt that calls itself a chophouse would serve such an incredibly over... more

Just returned from another Vail trip! Tried the new Vail ChopHouse in Lionshead's new village. unfortunately, our party of 4 was totally surprised by the lack of effort in every way at the restaurant. First, upon checking in, the maitre d informed us that she didn't have our reservation, and that this is a common problem at the Vail Chophouse.... more

A group of 4 of us (all men in mid 30's) just spent the holiday weekend in Vail, CO for a skip trip. We decided to close the trip with a steak dinner on our last night at the Vail Chophouse in Lionshead Village in Vail, CO. Unfortunately this was the worst steak house experience I have ever had. The... more
