**15/10; iconic, must be protected at all costs**…read more My girlfriend and I are in Vail for the weekend to watch dogs jump into water, as one does. We're staying at the Grand Hyatt, which has been... fine. Meh, if we're being honest. A local recommended Mountain Standard, so we tried to make a reservation on OpenTable and quickly learned they were booked solid until tomorrow (a great data point, btw). But, being the swarthy pirates that we are, we showed up anyway; and thank sweet baby Jesus, we found two seats at the bar. Our barkeep, Gummow, a fellow swarthy pirate, was excellent in every possible way. His bar back, Rowan, could not have been a better support man. Together, they delivered the kind of service that makes you remember why hospitality is an art form. And the food? Absolutely to die for. My girlfriend had the oxtail, and I had the mock paella. Both were incredible. The service, the food, the environment; every facet was dialed in. We will be going back tomorrow for lunch, possibly dinner, and possibly to inquire about monthly rent. As a former service industry worker myself, real recognize real. This place and these people are it. Mountain Standard is iconic and must be protected at all costs.

They were able to get us in with a 30 minute wait. We got lucky and sat at the bar while we waited. I had a margarita while I waited and on an empty stomach it hit quick. We ate the Pimento cheese that was delicious and split a biscuit. Pimento cheese was delicious. For the main meal we had the Oxtail ravioli and the Pork Shank. The Oxtail was delicious but didn't look appetizing. The pork shank was delicious Little pricy but overall a nice experience.

It was tasty, but I had a bit of buyer's remorse when I saw the other's dishes. I had a bite of the Schweinshaxe (pork shank) and Resi's Schnitzel which were both delicious. Some of the table was still hungry after our entrees, so we ordered some Bratwurst Bites and Pretzel to top off the meal. To finish, we had the chocolate fondue. Overall, it was a great meal in Vail Village.

I want to give kudos for a very friendly, attentive staff. However, the cheese fondue dinner was a…read morecomplete disappointment. The amount of fondue was absolutely paltry, especially given it was supposed to serve two people and cost $80. We had a nearly full basket of bread remaining after eating all the cheese. They also provided boiled potatoes and blanched vegetables to dip in the cheese along with dried fruit but that only made the meager cheese situation worse. It was more appetizer sized and even the fondue itself was bland and lackluster with no flavors of kirsch, wine, or other seasonings. We had to go somewhere else to actually get dinner. I appreciate the waiter discounting our meal to try and make up for it. The portions of the other entrees looked good so maybe go here for those and skip the fondue.

Additionally, we really wanted to sit outside (the summer day was beautiful, the river was running, flowers blooming...) and the bar staff went out of their way to make this happen.

We plan to go back again before our week long trip is over as this was a truly amazing & delicious meal.

Our server was extremely knowledgeable and helpful with providing recommendations. We started off with the bread and fondue. The fondue was a big hit with our table, and the cheese was so tasty. The bread was also good, and had a nice unique taste. For mains I tried some of the following: -steak frites: delicious and cooked perfectly, and a huge portion of delicious fries -mussels: definitely a miss, and tasted a bit too salty and the sizes were pretty inconsistent -filet: amazing -mushroom ravioli: absolutely horrible, literally the worst ravioli I've ever had -cacio e pepe: sooo tasty, but tastes was more like carbonara vs a traditional cacio e pepe. I liked the presentation and really loved the pork too. I would definitely recommend sticking with the meats here, as the pasta and seafood were major misses (except the cacio e Pepe was amazing) Overall a solid option for a nicer meal, but not the greatest place ever.

We weren't asked if we wanted it split - this made it $25, which was not worth it. I opted for the table side cacio e pepe which was super cheesey and also had delicious pork belly blended in. My husband had the burger which was 2 larger patties combined - we only wished it could've been cooked more medium rare because the flavor of the meat had so much potential! We weren't hungry for dessert but the table next to us got a unique mason jar dessert that looked like it was packed with chocolatey goodness.

Maybe they mean the squished up bun was smashed. Skating the line between meatball and UFO shaped, the burgers were absolutely obliterated on the grill. Idk, maybe they used a commercial dehydrator to dessicate the beef. The tomatoes on the burger were surprisingly stunning, flanked by a red onion slice so thick that it would need a steak knife. Fries were yummy.
