Anyone been to Samplings restaurant in Frisco, CO?
 

I love using www.opentable.com and stumbled upon Samplings and found their website makes my mouth water? Anyone have a review?

Hi amwosu, I am not familar with Samplings but there sure are a lot of wonderful restaurants in SF.

May I gently make a suggestion? People in San Francisco tend to not like their city called Frisco. It is best to use the full name or just SF if you are writing is fine. Best wishes and let us know how this restaurant is!

I believe the OP is referring to a town in COLORADO named "Frisco". It's near Breckinridge ski resort.

Thanks, Love. I'm sure, though, that she means Frisco, Colorado in Summit County.
No, amw. I've been to a few throughout the area but not Samplings. I'll ask around. Many friends at work also visit Frisco, Dillon, Breck, etc. quite often.

UHM, yes that is CO and not CA is it not? Sorry amsosu, I am the one that erred, I didn't read your title correctly. No wonder I have never heard of Samplings! And thanks padams and JRP for catching my mistake.

if LoveItaly paid closer attention to the title of this thread, she would have saw that it clearly indicates "Frisco" followed by a CO, not a CA.

Would have "saw"? LoveItaly very graciously appologized for her mistake so why the comment?

her post didnt exist before i began mine

My goodness vinceneil, you must have gotten up on the wrong side of the bed today. Hope tomorrow is more pleasant for you.

FYI my second post is clocked in at 10:00pm. Yours is clocked in at 10:01pm. AND YES MR. GRUMPY, I AGREE, IF I HAD PAID MORE ATTENTION TO THE TITLE I WOULD NOT HAVE MADE THE ERROR I DID!!!! Anything else you want to gripe about, LOL.

yeah, as a matter of fact. you ignored the post i did at 10:38, which explained i didnt see your other post. skim reader are we, ehh??

No harm LoveItaly. SF is on the to-do list for the next year. I'll take your advice to heart.

Back to Samplings, when I checked reservation time availability for Saturday they only have a 5:45pm time so it makes me think its at least a fairly popular restaurant. Even on Sunday I can't reserve anything close to 7pm.

JRP, wish I had more time so we could share a drink and talk about our favorite team. DH will be in Denver for a meeting Thursday & Friday, picks me up at DIA in the evening then we're careening toward Copper as fast as possible. My brother bought lots of Four Passes in the fall so at least the skiing will be inexpensive! Can't wait!

OK vinceneil, your second post wasn't clear. But a question..but don't bother answering it please. In fact I will make it a comment not a question. In that padams and JRP nicely adivsed me that I had erred why did you feel the need to add your comment "if I had paid closer attention". Such a waste of effort and so unnecessary unless you enjoy belittling people.

amwosu, I am glad you are coming out to SF next year. And have fun in Colorado, everyone does. Hope you get a reservation worked out at Samplings. Maybe someone will cancel at the last minute. Take care.

amwosu - if you go I'd love to hear how it is. My husband and I stay in/near Frisco a lot this time of year and we're always looking for new places to eat.

yale- I made a reservation and I'll let you know how we like the place.

If you can get a copy of the CME magazine (maybe see if you can get one at their desk at the airport?) they have a 10% off coupon.

Catbert- does CME stand for Colorado Mountain...., Copper Mountain....?

And good suggestion! Thanks.

Thanks BLYVAIL- I've even used them to get my son to Aspen but it didn't ring a bell. I was thinking in terms of a newspaper name.

So where else should we go Coskier? I think we'll keep the reservation since its just for tapas on Sunday night. If its nothing special I won't be too disappointed.
