Foo was great Service was great I feel they are way over priced Also, their "jumbo" scallops for $40 is three quarter sized scallops you can get from buying a bag at Costco. Very disappointed in that! Don't order them. They also put some kind of jelly in the steak Diane sauce which makes it sweet. Not my thing. Over all, it's a cool little place but the prices are insulting and they insist upon themselves a little. I don't think I will return. read more

EXCELLENT!!! We are on an extended motorhome trip with a week stop in Colorado Springs. I posed a question on Reddit about a nice place to spend our Anniversary. Peppertree came up several times, so I made reservations. Very glad I did. The staff work as a team; everybody assists you. I really liked this concept. My understanding is that gratuities are split among all team members. Service was outstanding with everyone friendly, smiling, and helpful. THE SOURDOUGH BREAD was some of the best I ever had. We started with an appetizer special. Lobster, grapes, and other stuff in a sauce that was delicious. It was pricey, but worth it for an anniversary dinner. I had the filet mignon and it was perfect. Wife had Steak Diane that was prepared table side by a friendly and appropriately humorous chef. When the flame started, I made some kind of comment and he replied..."I'm proud to say that we have had 27 accident-free days". The Steak Diane was delicious. Salads were fresh, cold and excellent. Baked potatoes were hot and served with plenty of butter, sour cream, chives, etc. I was surprised to see how small the restaurant was; less than 20 tables. I saw no coats/jackets; dress is casual and saw no shorts. When traveling in a motorhome, we generally don't take sports coats or other more formal attire. We did fit in just fine. The dining area provides plenty of space and is not crowded. The ambiance is "old style steakhouse" with a touch of elegance. I have one regret. If anyone from Peppertree is reading this, I was confused when computing the gratuity and didnt realize until this morning. I did leave a decent tip, but should have left more. Thank you for making our 51st anniversary dinner excellent. I highly recommend The Peppertree. read more

We stopped in here over the weekend and it was such a great experience. We felt like we stepped back in time when we received the great service from the hostess all the way to the bus boy. Every staff member at this little gem is friendly, helpful, and knowledgable. The uniforms of bow ties, as well as the table side service of the steaks was such a surprising and fun touch. Now on to the food. We ordered the Pepper Steak and the Steak Diane and shared bites of each. Both dishes were excellent and we loved the presentation of them. Next time we are in the area we will definitely be back. read more

Food is great but overpriced. Service and attitude suck. Go to Joseph's if you want a great pepper steak.

I think they should change their steak menu. None sound very good. My boyfriend tried the one with mango chutney and we both disliked it. It had nothing to do with the chef in our opinion. I got the special with garlic and it was FANTASTIC. The drinks and crème brûlée were also very good. The asparagus was bland. Service was amazing! The man who brought out our steak and cooked it in front of us was hilarious! Made our night a little more special. Ambiance was on the fancier side. People were wearing a wide variety of clothes; some people were in jeans, some were in more formal attire. read more

So 26 years later we finally make it back to the Peppertree which all those years ago was our favorite anniversary spot. Married for 32 years, we decided to give it a go to see if it remained a special place. For years, I have attempted to recreate the dish minus all of the flare and rich flavors on our grills. We were impressed with the restaurant and how fantastic it still looked and we always love the outstanding view of Colorado Springs. We booked our reservation through OpenTable and set the time for 6:30. We arrived a bit earlier than planned but the staff was accommodating and seated us immediately giving us the choice of three tables. After we sat down, we picked out a fantastic bottle of red wine and enjoyed the amazing culinary smells. We decided to go with our favorite the 6oz Pepper steak served with a salad and side of your choice. We both opted to try the Dill Vinaigrette which was superb and unlike anything I have had before. The fresh dill took the salad over the top. And I forgot to mention the bread that we were served before the bottle of wine arrived! Soft in the middle with a great crunch and my wife asked for butter which came out soft and warm. The service was perfect - never felt rushed and never felt like we were being watched. The staff had such amazing synchronicity and teamwork that made the night even more special. The table side cook on our steaks was also fun to watch as Rob delivered the perfect cook to my wife's well done filet. The filet was just as amazing as I remembered could cut it with a spoon!! The flavor of the mango chutney and the fresh cracked pepper sure made the dish of course the basting in butter didn't hurt ;) The baked potato side we ordered loaded with butter, cheese, bacon, sour cream and chives. There was nothing left at meals end. Then just when we thought we were done the staff served us an ice cream Sunday to celebrate our special anniversary event. When we finally departed for our hotel, we were waiting for our Uber when the owner, Max asked us how everything was and we explained how we made memories from the 90's with amazing dinners. He was super excited to hear our feedback and offered us a ride if we needed one. We already have decided that we will be back again! read more

Great service. Drinks were good. Food was good. I just didn't like the table side prep. It made it noisy and distracting with the flames right behind me. It was a special anniversary celebration but for the price I would go somewhere else because it just felt too busy/noisy for me. read more

The service was outstanding. Every server who walked by our table worked together to make the occasion very special. The food was simply amazing. The table side prep was spectacular and delicious. Looking forward to my next visit. read more

Not impressed. It reminds me of an upper class mason jar. Food not worth the price. A view of a torn down hobby lobby. So I don't see what the hype is about. read more

Food was awesome and service was also really great. For a special event or nice date night you can't go wrong with Peppertree!!!

Took some family out to dinner. Very special place. Great service. Family had the halibut special said it was great. We had the chateaubriand for two. Excellent drinks. Very comfy chairs. Id also recommend the local wild mushrooms. read more

We had an excellent visit to The Peppertree this weekend. My fiancé and I took his parents for his dad's 86th birthday because we wanted somewhere special and they delivered in every way (see the pics--that smile doesn't lie!) From the moment we checked in for our reservation through our entire meal, the service and hospitality from their team was quick and friendly. All the food was delicious and we especially loved their specialities cooked table-side. The Peppertree is a must visit if you're in COS, and somewhere to go out of your way for too! read more

This was an amazing experience all around! We arrived earlier than our reservation so we sat at the bar and enjoyed a cocktail with Tyler, the bartender. We got sat earlier than our time slot which was nice and we had a great view out the windows. The service was impeccable and we were never waiting. While sitting we got to see a mama deer and two babies walk by and even enjoyed some fireworks. The drinks were great and so was the food. Chef Jake was amazing with everything he prepared and put out to our table. The table side cooking was such a nice a fun touch. Our plates were perfectly timed out to where again, we were never waiting! We will definitely be traveling back to Colorado Spring just to eat here again. Thank you for a great experience Peppertree! read more

we had a very pleasant time in this restaurant. The atmosphere was very nice. The food was excellent. I had the peppercorn steak and my wife had the steak Diane. They're both delicious. I definitely think I prefer the steak Diane a little better. desserts look delicious but we were too full to try. this is one of our favorite restaurants in Colorado Springs for fine dining. read more

Just remodeled was very nice. Looks out over the city. I had the pepper steak 8oz and my wife had the lamb chops double cut. Both were amazing. I like what I like but I would be happy with anything on the menu, knowing it would be the best I could get anywhere. Service was outstanding and friendly. It's Classy not cheap. I go there for special occasions, Anniversary and Birthday's. read more

Outstanding food and service. When you drive up to the underwhelming outside of the restaurant, your nose will pick up a delicious aroma wafting on the air! Once inside, you will see a newly remodeled 18 table main room and a cute 7 seat bar nestled into a cute wine display room. Service was excellent with a knowledgeable team. Wonderful shrimp cocktail appetizer with outstanding homemade cocktail sauce. We enjoyed the table prepared pepper filet, a wet aged bone in ribeye, delicious dill/cucumber and blue cheese salads, and augratin and baked potatoes that came with the meal. Pro tip: order the ribeye with sauce on the side. I couldn't believe the flavor of this meat. It rivaled every dry aged ribeye I've had in the past. We also enjoyed a side of Bernaise sauce. Cherries jubilee was prepared table side along with creme Brule. Chef John stopped by our table, and we learned a little bit about The Peppertree remodeling. Don't judge this book by its cover! Well priced for some of the best steaks we've ever eaten. Well worth the trip from Denver metro. Make sure to make reservations read more

I was visiting my parents last week , and they decided to go to this restaurant for dinner. My steak was cooked to perfection. My parents felt the same about their entrées. My father really enjoyed the lobster bisque. The service was excellent. All entrées were served at the same time. The noise level was perfect. It appeared everyone was able to have conversations at their respective tables without any issue due to noise. Also appreciated the beautiful view. Also, the Bananas Foster was delicious. read more

This was amazing!! The staff is phenomenal, just wonderful. And the food? The side table cook is exciting and the taste was oh so delicious. Awesome place to celebrate a special occasion as it is intimate and impeccable. read more

Top notch service! From the minute we arrived we were spoiled. The bartender came and took our orders from the table then served us amazing dirty martini's. Done right! Even got the wine breathing so we were ready to drink it with our meal. The caesar salad was made table-side, garlicky and so damn good. Served on an icy cold plate and the lettuce was cold and crispy. Not everyday you get a COLD salad plate. We ordered the pepper steak and the steak diane. Cooked to perfection and the chutney on the pepper-steak was so unique and went very well with the meat. The diane was served with a table-side sauce that I hope to copy at home. Don't blow it by not ordering the bananas foster. The care and love that went into it was so special. It was fantastic. The service was impeccable. Beautiful view and so inviting. Well done everyone! read more

Newly renovated in 2024. Amazing experience! The owner came to introduce herself and told us about the 20 year history of the restaurant.

PepperTree Restaurant is a great place to dine for a special occasion or an upscale dining experience. They have a great menu and a lot of the dishes are cooked tableside. I started my meal with the seared scallops on a bead of Thai chili sauce. My aunt reconsider of the Chateaubriand (pan seared center cut filet mignon) for two, with a baked potato and vegetable medley. For dessert I ordered Apple pie à la mode. His meal was outstanding from start to finish. The Chateaubriand was cooked table side and flambéed (cooked with liquor and set it alight briefly), which provided an amazing dinning experience. This is a great local and upscale restaurant. I highly recommend this restaurant for a special dining experience or special occasion. The staff was extremely efficient and friendly, as well as the prices were not very expensive for the food and service provided. read more

Went here for valentines dinner right after we got married. We both got the table side pepper steak with scalloped potatoes and an appetizer of escargot. The scalloped potatoes and escargot were to die for. So flavorful and perfect. Was not a fan of the sweet fruit compote stuff they put on top of our steaks. We prefer our steak savory and flavorful. Because we were celebrating getting married that day, they didn't charge us dessert (chocolate cake). Everything was delicious and reasonably priced. Will definitely return. read more

2nd time enjoying the food and atmosphere at the peppertree restaurant!

Came here to celebrate a birthday dinner and the whole experience was amazing! We made reservations for 5:45pm and ended up getting there half an hour early and they were able to accommodate us, no problem. The waiter at the front took our coats and we were seated shortly after. They gave us some bread with butter while perusing their drink and food menu. They have a really nice collection of beer, wine, cocktails, whiskey, etc. I ordered the 8oz. Pepper Steak with the fully loaded baked potato. The steak is cooked right in front of you next to your table. I'm amazed by the waiters who are dressed all fancy and are able to cook our food without making a mess on themselves. Definitely go check this place out for a special occasion. When you come here, you're definitely not on a budget. read more

One of the most delicious places I've been to. Really popular and known for their pepper steaks. I'm so glad that I went with that choice on the menu. The steak was so tender you could literally use your fork to cut it. The appetizers were equally amazing. We had the shrimp cocktail, portabella mushrooms, and scallops and they were all delicious. Beautiful view of the city, really great wait staff, and the atmosphere was great. Also I had one of the best bread puddings ever! it was to die for! read more

Wow this restaurant was amazing. The service from the staff was top notch. As soon as we entered they ask if they could take our coats. All the servers and cooks were super friendly. The team work is great! Everything we ordered was delicious. By far the best restaurant in Colorado Springs (we have been to flying horse, cowboy and prime25). We have never experienced steak prepared table side and we were floored with how good and buttery the steak was, my husband ate it in minutes haha. Both desserts were tasty! And since we came for my husbands birthday they added a candle which was so thoughtful. We will be coming back for sure! read more

Well once again I'm in my happy place. My wife and I have been going to The Pepper Tree since we started dating. Now we are here for our 30th Anniversary. It remains our favorite place in the Springs (and yes we have been to the Cliff House, Briarhurst, Carlos, The Penrose and others...all very good) We just so enjoy the food, ambience and service at the Pepper tree and will continue to be our nice restaurant of choice for a nice evening.

Peppertree Restaurant - Steak Diane - Steakhouses Near Me - Colorado Springs, Colorado

Views are great, as is the service, and fun/tasty/classy/next-level cocktails, but after that? Phbbbbt. Decor has a very early-2000s Oklahoma trailer park vibe. Eek. But the food? No. Just no. Their signature steak is table prepared, to which I was like...hmmmm oooook not sure but I'll try it. It was an unseasoned slab of meat seared on a propane burner in a steel pan. Horrifying. My brain overloaded at all the things that were done to that poor piece of beef. Even the mango whatever they put on it (???!???) tasted flat. So come in for a maple or chai old fashioned, or maybe a cocktail tailored for you specifically, and then relocate to Souper Salad. read more

Good but worth a $250 check for 2 people? We had 2 old fashioneds (maple smoked bourbon-we could taste the maple but not the smoke) and 2 glasses of wine. My husband got the onion soup (delicious!) and pepper steak. It was cooked at the table, so quite a show by a friendly chef. However, he ordered it medium and it was medium rare. My husband does not complain. Ever. I ordered the spinach salad. Expecting a bacon flavor or a bit of warmth, it had neither, but it was delicious. Because I'm gluten free they brought me special bread. I love that they did this but it had no flavor even with butter. The cart with the cooking supplies has current jelly on it. It was a wonderful addition to my bread. I hope they supply it in the future. I ordered the sole with veggies. The sole was amazing! Or the sauce on the sole was amazing. Veggies were ok. Summer squashes, an onion chunk, and an orange pepper slice. The onion was the best. A celebration requires dessert. We ordered the cherries flambé. Very good but a bit sweet for my taste. Ask to cut back the sugar if you like it tart. All in all, glad we tried it but we won't go back. Well maybe in 4 decades. read more

The food is awesome, the steaks are melt-in-your-mouth great. The views are cool; it's a small space, so that's to their advantage. The advised dress code is business casual, we dressed up, I wore a very nice hat (I'm in the stages of growing my hair out post pandendemic, but it's not a hair style I would want to present to a "fine dining" restaurant.) I was told I could not wear my hat in the dining room, awkward. While seated, we noticed several people around us wearing sweats and beanies and the unspoken rules became very clear that, if you aren't in thier "group", you are out. It was uncomfortable and kind of ruined the whole experience. I won't be going back. read more

Went in for Christmas Eve, experience was great, food was ok. Appetizer: Lobster on a puff pastry was disappointing because it sat in a plate of sauce/gravy that made the pastry mushy:soupy. Way too soggy and defeated the purpose of having a puff pastry. Arnold Palmer: unsweet tea with unsweet lemonade, while I enjoyed it, my partner did not. He wished either the tea or lemonade was sweet. Christmas cocktail: I could only drink about 1/4 of it. Really strong so some may enjoy that, I did not Bread: Warm and delicious Salad: Caesar salad was made table-side and delicious, best part of the meal Main course: bison strip steak with blue cheese was great. My only complaint was too much glaze and not enough blue cheese. Dessert: Bananas foster was made table-side and was ok. Turned into ice cream soup almost immediately even though we tried to eat it quickly. Only ate a few bites before we stopped because it was soup. Service was excellent, ambiance was excellent, food was ok, paid $340 for 1 appetizer, 2 salads, 2 main courses, 1 dessert, 1 tea, 1 cocktail. I wish they would limit the "sauces" as the food itself is delicious and doesn't need to be drowning in sauce. read more
