This place was highly rated in the reviews I read, but... dinner was at best average. My husband's filet mignon was less than the best, and my pork chops were dry. It was expensive too, certainly not the food I would expect at that price....Staff tried really hard, but that didn't save the meal.More

Traveling and eating on vacation this summer ended with my favorite restaurant in Colorado! “The Snake”, as it’s affectionately known by locals, continues to serve delicious food in a woodsy-mountain environment. It is popular, so you should make reservations in the fine dining side. Not...necessary in the pub part which serves good pub grub. Authentic Colorado at its best!More

I was passing through on business. The outside of the building had a nice western look, which is a plus for a traditional Northwestern Steakhouse. Inside was nice as well, but it was a bit of a letdown. It kind of gave a sawdust on...the floor tavern feeling. The place was very busy. And all the staff was hussling about in a professional manner. The menu was nice. It didnt overwhelm me with a long list of food to order. It did, cover a multitude of tastes. The waitress showed up promptly and took my drink order and left me a menu. By the time she returned, I had time to scann the menu. As instructed by the menu, i asked about the special. It was porterhouse steak. Which is a favorite of mine, so i ordered it, medium, baked potato, and mixed veggies. I also orders calamari. The calamari came and it was fried in grease that should of been changed. You could taste that it was burnt. When my meal arrived, my steak looked more like a 12 ounce T-bone, not a porterhouse. The baked potato was wrinkled, which indicated pre-cooked and maybe microwaved. I cut it open and put the butter in. It never melted. The baked was luke warm. As far as the mixed veggies, they were very…very cold. I will not go back again. The only reason i gave a rating above was because my waitress was exceptional!More

Hello, We actually have never had calamari on the menu. We also have never had a porterhouse steak on the menu as well. We can’t really comment on items we don’t serve at our restaurant. Thank you.

A delicious dinner after a long day of skiing. Make a reservation. Don’t miss it. Best steak I’ve had in a long time.

Best restaurant of our trip. The food was excellent and the service was too. It’s pricey, but so is everywhere else, and the food here is soooooo much better. The alfredo pasta is spectacular.

This saloon has a bar side and fine dining restaurant. We ate in the white tablecloth restaurant and had 3 delicious meals and appetizers. We enjoyed large mussels and onion rings for appetizers. For our entrees we had Prime Rib, Rainbow Trout and Shrimp scampi...dishes. All of our food was excellent and I'm from San Francisco and NYC so I understand quality dishes. This is a rare find in Keystone. The restaurant was full and so was the bar/bar restaurant side of the place. Reservations recommended.More

Food is okay. The staff is incompetent one bartender doesn’t know how to check ids and one doesn’t know when the kitchen closes. Over all the staff is terrible, drinks over price and owner doesn’t care about their customers.More

Went with a group, they handled us with ease, which is not always the case elsewhere. The food was excellent, had a steak and it was excellent. The wait staff was on top of it. Would eat here again.

This is not a place that you would drive by and think- “white tablecloth dining”! We always have a wonderful dinner here, food and service are terrific. Good to have a reservation as it is often full even during the week in the summer.

I got a filet Migon. It was cooked perfect. Very juicy and tender. Bacon was good too. Salad wasn’t very good though. All in all a solid steak house for the price! Also make sure you make reservations.

This charming woodsy restaurant has been here many years - a bit of an icon in the area. We always eat at least one meal in the dining room and do more than one HH in pub when we visit. Even with covid and all...the difficulties The Snake has consistently served great food in a warm friendly way. It is very popular so be sure to make reservations in advance. Kick back, be flexible in these trying times and enjoy not being in rush hour trafffc on a highway!More

I had prime rib which included potato and vegetable. I ordered a salad and it was enough for a couple of us to share. The prime rib was huge and I had enough for lunch the next day. Fun place with great service.
