    Fried Mozzarella
    Briana S.

    It's a great place to go after visiting Maroon Bells. I will say the cashier gave a weird vibe like it was an inconvenience for him to be taking our order. I got the Baja Salad with chicken. I thought it was pretty good. I genuinely enjoyed it. My husband got chicken tenders and he said it was dry. What was shocking to us was how crazy expensive it was. We got the salad adding a protein, chicken tenders, fried mozzarella, and a soda and a margarita, that all came out to $92ish. That was just mind baffling. So if you're coming here, keep in mind you'll be spending a pretty penny.

    Ate here after a morning walk at the Maroon Bells. It was not that busy around 11AM. We ordered a pizza and it did take some time. You can sit anywhere, and they bring your order to you after because of the number you get. We ate outside with a view of the beautiful green hills. The food was delicious and fresh, and the service was good.

    Surprisingly a great place to have a quick bite before you take a ride to Maroon bells! Ordered a few beers and their whips white pizza - most fresh pizza I've had! Staff was nice and prompt! The views are fantastic Ofcourse! We did see a private event happening outdoors. Overall loved it! Will recommend for sure!

    nachos and condiments
    Sarah D.

    Well what can say 27 bucks for a measly plate of nachos. The pizza is good also overpriced got 2 medium pizzas for 72 dollars. It is Aspen but seriously. And I couldn't even get extra guacamole when the nachos turned into just chips. Watch your bill too because they add the tip without telling you so you will end up tipping three times. I think I'll stick to eating at the carousel where the staff is friendlier and the prices are better even on the mountain. Where's the goodies?

    Burrata Salad
    Morgan S.

    Solid casual spot in Aspen when you don't want to spend $50 on one dish. Large menu with a great variety of food options. Pizza's are incredible.

    Fried Oreos and ice cream
    Brenda S.

    We ate her twice while we were in Aspen. It was That good. Loved the chicken quesadilla. Also the mozzarella sticks we delicious! Definitely try the fried Oreos. Sooo good! Service was fast both times we went there. Beautiful view of the slopes.

    Patio

    This place is a perfect place to grab drinks and food with friends. We came here after going to Maroon Bells for an elopement, everyone loved it. We had a patio table outside, enjoyed the outdoors, played with a few doggies, had delicious drinks, and shared some good laughs.

    Expensive but extremely fresh mussels
    Jess C.

    Aspen is famous for being expensive and crowded, but Aspen Highlands is the hidden gem. Highlands Alehouse was the main restaurant at the bottom of the hill. The pizza was so delicious, and the mussels (special) were fresh and savory. How do you even import mussels this fresh? Great convenient location for lunch which won't break the bank. Love that it's much less crowded than Snowmass and Aspen!

    Arugula and Prociutto salad- tasty!

    White House Tavern is a perfect example of Aspen casual done right…read more The restaurant sits in a charming historic house and has such a warm, relaxed energy -- great music, friendly staff, and a lively atmosphere. The crispy chicken sandwich is honestly one of the best sandwiches I've ever had. Perfectly crispy, juicy, and balanced with just the right amount of heat. The kale salad and fries were also excellent, and everything came out quickly despite how busy the place was. The service was upbeat and welcoming, and the whole experience felt effortless. If you want a fun, laid-back lunch or dinner in Aspen without sacrificing quality, this is absolutely the place.

    This place was very highly recommended amongst all of our friends and relatives that live around…read moreAspen, so we had high hopes. The service was wonderful, we got our food very quickly, and the ambiance was adorable. A little loud but nothing too crazy. The food itself was fine. We ordered the duo dip, French fries, the French dip, and the chicken sandwich. The guac and the other dip were really good and we loved the chips too. The fries are pretty much what you'd expect, except once they got to room temperature they became super hard and not very edible. My husband said the French dip meat was good and tender, pretty good flavor overall. I had the chicken sandwich which was huge! They split the sandwich into three wedges and I could only finish two. I liked the texture of the chicken was nice and I liked the slaw on it, however, the flavor overall was kind of lacking. I would say it was a bit overhyped. Overall, it was a nice experience for a decent price and I'm glad we went. Would we go back? Probably.

    As it turns out, the best food in Aspen was hiding in plain sight…read more My partner and I just spent a glorious week at the Aspen Meadows Resort for a conference. When we were not attending related events, we met friends in town for dinners at rather well-known restaurants -- all were just fine. Quite good, even. But not... great. Then, with a bit of luck and a determined snowstorm, we found ourselves having to stay in Aspen for two additional days. Luckily, we were welcomed back at the resort and, hunkering down with the weather, decided to simply stay put and have dinner on property at West End Social. Due to the weather, we practically had the place to ourselves, which was genius, as we were able to spend even more time with our utterly delightful and endlessly competent server, John B. What followed was easily the best meal we had in Aspen. The pâté was insanely delicious, the pork chop was the best my partner has ever had, and the focaccia (the focaccia!), wildly delicious -- crackling at the edges, deeply earthy, and, I suspect, lifted by a whisper of cornmeal. The only tragedy was that we found ourselves unable to cross the finish line to dessert. And so it was that we came back again the next evening. We ordered an entirely different assortment of dishes (save the otherworldly focaccia), and once again -- perfection. My job back in Massachusetts is to write about local food, farms, and chefs, which is to say only that I think about food -- a lot. And so it is that with total confidence and unbridled enthusiasm I can say -- West End Social, with its gorgeous space, exquisite food, and outstanding people who make it all happen -- is a gem.
