The Hotel Jerome is undoubtedly one of the most beautiful places in Aspen. There are two bars, but…read morewe chose the one at the back of the hotel. We ordered THREE drinks at the bar, and as a table opened, carried them to the table while the bar tender transferred our bill over so we could pay the waitress at the end. We ordered only 2 more drinks from the waitress and then asked for the bill. THIS is when she told us gratuity was already added in the bill, as she handed it to us. Was that because we were at a table? Why did nobody tell us that before? TWENTY-TWO percent automatic gratuity for getting us 2 drinks. $200 for 2 glasses of wine and 3 cocktails. So, my dear friends, check the drink prices and ask if gratuity is added BEFORE you order. And if $36 is steep for a drink; then just take pictures, use the restroom and then go to another bar. Trust me, the cocktails WERE NOT WORTH $36 + $8 tip + $4 tax = FOURTY-EIGHT dollars each!

No words were said from us the moment at the door to the moment we walked away. Will never return to this arrogant place and it's employees.

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.

we had one of those days where nothing went wrong but nothing really locked in either…read more around 5:30 there's kind of a quiet agreement that we're not cooking end up at bosq walk in and immediately realize this is not a place where you're going to steer anything. you're more of a participant sat down and the first thing that happens is you stop trying to get ahead of the meal. you just let it come to you small plates start showing up. not small like "light snack" small. small like "this has a purpose" one of them tasted like pine but in a way where you don't question it. like yeah ok this probably needed to happen at some point i noticed nobody around us was asking many questions. not because they didn't care. more like the room had already answered them there was a stretch where nobody at our table talked for maybe 20-30 seconds which is a long time and nobody panicked guy running the table had it completely under control. didn't catch the name but pretty sure it was barron sawyer. same guy i've now seen at multiple places doing exactly what needs to be done toward the end you realize you didn't make a single decision that mattered and that was probably correct walked out and nobody suggested going anywhere else five stars this place removes your ability to mess up dinner

I had the 5 course tasting ($195; note there is a 3% service charge - about $220 before tip). Will note that I wasn't quite "full" full after the 5 course menu, but I was more than "neutral," so it was enough food. I also had a mocktail; they had a floral sounding gin-based cocktail ($25) but I didn't want to drink alcohol (worried about having a headache) and they made me a mocktail version ($18) and it tasted girly and fun (just like I like my drinks!). There is downtown Aspen parking available around, it's all per hour and seasonal rates, plus residential parking which is a bit cheaper. I don't think there's any fully free parking anywhere in the area unfortunately. Will also just mention -- the bathroom was immaculate. Smelled lovely, and I dug the dark/black vibe. Def would rec a visit here!

While wandering the snowy streets (and fancy hotels) of Aspen one Saturday morning, we came across…read morethis gem located inside the Hyatt and made a pledge to return during operating hours. So glad we did. On our last night in town, we had reservations at a restaurant down the street and came here for a pre-meal beverage. Upon entering the Hyatt, a see-through fireplace to the left serves as your initial glimpse into the tasting room. Coming from the traditional mountain chic of the hotel, the Marble Bar's decor is strikingly different, with its HGTV clean lines / grey / white modern aesthetic. Yet it still manages to be wonderfully cozy with multiple small group sitting areas, complete with fur throws and the aforementioned wood burning fireplaces, as well as bar seating if that's more your thing. There is also an outdoor fire pit that looked tempting, but it was snowing pretty heavily, and we said another time. The place was quiet with only 2 other patrons when we first arrived, but after about 30 mins it was quite lively. The mixologist (not to sound pretentious, but 'bartender' just doesn't do her justice) was amazing. I'm so sorry I can't remember her name, but if I say Boston then it should be obvious who I'm referring to. She was a great conversationalist, excellent cocktail fabricator, and really helped get our evening off to a perfect start. We would have stayed longer if it weren't for those reservations. As for the most important piece, the beverages! We had 4 different whiskey based cocktails amongst the group, and all were absolutely fantastic - there was a lot of sharing. I had The Paragon and enjoyed it so much went home with a small bottle of the Moonlight EXpresso (not a typo) Reserve to try to recreate the magic. I was told it was one of the first liqueurs created by the owner, and the website has a recipe for cheesecake, which I certainly will be trying. The actual distillery is located in Carbondale (a road trip is clearly in order), but this tasting room outpost located in the Hyatt in downtown Aspen is very highly recommended.

I called them at 8:30 and they said kitchen is open till 9pm which was fair. We got there at 8:50pm and the hostess looked over to someone who looked like the shift manager and she said "sorry the kitchen is closed". I did not feel like arguing so we just decided to have some pizzas and drinks. That was a big mistake. I ordered what looked like a calzone (pizza that is wrapped) and it was the saltiest dish I've tried. Again we were trying to be mindful and too nice but I think we just went too far for being too nice. I then ordered the other pizza and it was honestly quite mediocre. The waiter was really nice and that's why I'm giving it 1 star otherwise it would be zero for us. They weren't even willing to provide salad. Come on! You can't even make salad in your kitchen? That was just ridiculous. And believe it or not, we had amazing food in every other restaurant we tried in Aspen so this was certainly a one off. My suggestion to the management team is to be honest about your the last call from your kitchen. If you close at 10pm and your kitchen runs till 9pm, you ought to be able to take orders till 9pm. Otherwise, be upfront and shot down kitchen at 8:30pm. Quite disappointed and not even sure if I would ever want to give this place a try.
