Telluride and Southwest Colorado Restaurant Reviews

View all »

With dining options ranging from creative contemporary cuisine in the posh ski resorts of Telluride (and to a lesser extent in Crested Butte and Durango) to no-frills American fare in down-home ranching communities, no one has any excuse to visit a chain restaurant here. The leading chefs are tapping into the region's local bounty, so you can find innovative recipes for ranch-raised game, lamb, and trout. Many serve only locally raised, grass-fed meats. Olathe sweet corn is a delicacy enjoyed across the state in restaurants and grocery stores. Seasonal produce is always highlighted on the best menus.
