Cubano
Eddy M.

Honest dine in review: Come well dressed, and look like you can pay the bill... but also, please enjoy the view as the Garden of the Gods in the background is amazing with a bite... even if it's mid. 1.5/5 I just finished enjoying a relaxing day at the Spa in Manitou and arrived in comfortable clothes to walk in to this dining establishment. Had a hat on which I was asked to remove (understandable), yet there was someone eating in a hat? Service was extremely slow, and while others were asked if they wanted dessert, I was given a check when I wasn't finished with my meal and told there would be no rush. Short, and simply put... dress nice or be a member of the establishment otherwise... you may have a similar experience. Might be worth the view, I wouldn't go back. -Cubano: 1/5 As you'll see in the picture. It's a small sandwich, dry, not enough Dijon sauce, extremely dry for the pork which tasted more like dry tuna, and seemed very underwhelming... However, the homemade pickles were good! This is a new addition to the menu and it felt as if it was trying to be something it wasn't... fries were good and accompanied by a small amount of ketchup. For $20+ and a $6 Arnold Palmer, this combination left you wanting more unfortunately. 1 star for the view as it's divine, and I'll be generous and share another star for the whole experience as it was underwhelming, and felt as if I should've worn a suit to have received better treatment...

Breakfast burrito was just okay for the price
Trisdon M.

We really enjoyed our experience at Grand View restaurant. The place is definitely aptly named as the views are spectacular. We came for brunch and the food was pretty good, but not necessarily worth it for the price. I tried the breakfast burrito and my sister tried the eggs Benedict. Both were pretty good but not anything particularly noteworthy. The service was friendly but the kitchen was a bit slow (it took about 25 minutes for our burrito and Benedict to come out). We didn't complain though because we got to sip cocktails and take in the view. I guess overall, it's a great place to experience for a nice view and decent food, just expect to pay a bit more than you'd expect and accept that the food won't knock your socks off.

The view

First, can I just say that the view at Grand View is absolutely beautiful. I mean, it really is a grand view (I included a picture of me in front of the view haha)!! It is so pretty we even witnessed an engagement! Magical doesn't describe it! Anyways... let's get onto the food and drinks. The drinks are as extravagant as the interior. They smoke the old fashions and use really pretty garnishes. They're really good and the bartenders are really kind and have great personalities. I will say, the only problem was that we didn't put in our food order for about 15 to 20 minutes after getting drinks. They're busy, but that is one thing to keep in mind! We sat at the bar for context. Either way, we enjoyed the bartenders and weren't too bothered! I think the main reason this is 4 stars versus 5 is the price of the food and the portions. I know this is at a resort and is quite fancy, but $34 for pea risotto (with no meat) is crazy. I make risotto at home and you can make at least 4 portions of this for that price on your own time. The pork belly was also dry. But the pesto was fantastic on the chicken pesto pasta. And the German chocolate tart was very decadent! I just feel like the pricing is a bit much for what you receive. But it does taste good. Anyways... I thought it was very nice! You're paying for the ambiance and drinks more than the food. But it was all beautifully presented and with great company, it was a perfect night.

Mussels
Joungkeun L.

Amazing view. Mussel and Filet mignon were excellent. The mashed potato went perfectly with the filet. Other dishes were ok, but the lettuce in salad was very dry and we couldn't finish. The impression on food is mixed, but the view alone is worth to visit.

Beautiful venue, excellent service, and delicious food. Went there to celebrate my niece's graduation and had such amazing time there. Our server was excellent, friendly, funny, and attentive. The views are breathtaking. The food and desserts delicious. This place is recommended for a celebration and/or a date.

Glass or rose at sunset
Kristen M.

My partner and I came in for sunset date night recently and were very pleased with our time here! The staff was able to accommodate an earlier reservation for us which was very kind. We were seated promptly and had excellent service the whole night from our server Sammy (Sami?)! The views are truly incredible and I felt fortunate they placed us near the windows so we could have a front row view of the sunset. I enjoyed everything I ate- the bread started, Caesar salad and chicken parm. And zero complaints about the cheesecake and bread pudding desserts! I definitely recommend trying this spot and I would love to return in the future

The three stars is for the view, server and the complimentary bread. The actual courses we ordered were not great for the price. My husband ordered the roasted chicken and we give that dish 0 stars. The taste just wasn't great. We actually sent it back and the server offered another dish or free dessert but my husband had lost his appetite from his two bites of chicken. I will say the views were so amazing, it's a shame the food didn't match up.

Rotini Alla Vodka ($25). I didn't try this, but I noticed this had the same volume of pasta as the kid's pasta dish. Tue lunch 2024-04-09

Tons of reservations available. Made for 6 people at 11am on a Tuesday, booked the night before. Service was professional and patient with our two little kids. Our server had children of her own and was great with ours. Family friendly in the sense that they do have a kid's menu, but there were no other kids there, and no coloring activities available. Not surprised given the slightly more formal nature of this restaurant. $194.46 total including tax/tip for 3 drinks, 4 entrees, 1 side, and 2 kid's entrees. Pricey for ok food, but you're paying for the view which was indeed gorgeous. * Chopped Cobb Salad ($17) - 4 stars Ample blue cheese, ranch, and bacon. Could have used a little more lettuce as it was pretty intense. * Sauteed Trout ($34) - 3.5 stars The yucca root purree and spiced sunburst squash were amazing. The trout was well done, and personally I like mine a little pink in the middle, and I couldn't really taste the chili-lime glaze. * Kid's Rotini/Hot Dog ($10/$12) - 3 stars Very basic meals; the hot dog and bun were quite big. * Rotini Alla Vodka ($25) No rating as I didn't try this, but just noting that this dish had the exact same volume of pasta as the $10 Kid's Rotini. Of course, this had nicer toppings, but perhaps not fifteen dollar's more of toppings.

Filet mignon
Laura P.

This meal was completely unforgettable! We were lucky enough to snag a table outside with the stunning views of Garden of the Gods at sunset. I didn't expect the food to be good, given that it doesn't have to be to bring in tourists with the view it has, but it was spectacular. The pasta Provençal blew my mind: the noodles were made from scratch, and the tomatoes marinated in tremendous garlic, butter and seasoning. The filet mignon was also perfectly cooked and hardly needed a butter knife to cut. Cocktail and wine menu are extensive as is the dessert menu. Service was excellent: staff cared a lot that we were happy and enjoying ourselves.

Food was way overpriced and not good - dry chicken and bland fish. View is amazing, so rating is just food.

From the parking attendant trying to kill us to the cold food, our Thanksgiving dinner was not so great. I'd say hard pass.

Update to my review from ~8 years ago. We STILL love this place…read more My husband loves the soup and the cake! We went most recently for brunch.

It's not often that I can say every item I order is great but at Shuga's everything really is…read moregreat. Shuga's Favorite Cafe Tray is an order that could satisfy one's entire meal but is best when shared as a starter or if you are looking for a light meal. The Mediterranean selection with the hummus and tapenade is amazing with the coconut shrimp soup being a must try with its creamy and spiciness. Though I love the almond butter cake the most to add a little dessert to the meal. The Madame of the Pletzl is one of the best breakfast sandwiches I've ever had. The bagel is perfectly salted and has a wonderful crunch the sandwich needs. The egg melts into the sandwich, mixing with everything it needs to. The ham is fried up to crisp it up a bit but the ham seems to be lacking flavor wise compared to everything else in the sandwich. The Cuban Mojo Sandwich also is an amazing sandwich. The pork shoulder is crisped up nicely and works so well with everything else. The winter soup was a tomato soup with some grilled cheese croutons and it is the best tomato soup I've ever had. The tomato soup isn't puréed, there are noticeable definitions in the tomatoes in the soup. The soup isn't too acidic which is the usual issue in tomato soups. The croutons really amplify this dish on to another level and I just wish there were more in my soup. I can't wait to come back here and my biggest issue will to try and order new things.

The Seoul Bowl absolutely steals the show here. Thinly sliced bulgogi, layered over rice with crisp…read morevegetables, kimchi, and a sunny side up egg creates a rich, balanced bite every time. Once mixed together, the yolk coats everything into a delicious fresh dense bowl that's deeply satisfying without feeling too heavy. The crispy calamari was a great, light, crunchy meal. The octupus pieces were thick and paired well with the sweet chili sauce. The breading wasn't distracting but rather adding to the flavor. The thai chili salmon plate was bright and fresh, with a nice balance of glaze, greens, and noodles. Overall, higher quality for lower price. We will be returning. Cocktails were just as thoughtful as the food -- vibrant, fruity, sweet, and beautifully presented. If you come here, order the Seoul Bowl. It's comforting, flavorful, and easily the standout dish on the table

It's a very cute place to walk into, as it has warm lights and greenery lacing it's exterior. The first site, really, is the counter of delicious sweets. I think it gives you an idea of what dessert *could* be dessert, or what you may want to take home for a late night snack. Don't remember the service.
