We went for happy hour and had a very nice time. They give you bags of popcorn We had an old fashioned and a margarita. Both were excellent We ordered the Brussels sprouts that were delicious but way too salty. People next to us loved the cauliflower appetizer and the wagyu burger read more

There is my favorite place in Telluride for food, drinks, happy hour, apres -- you name it. I appreciate the intimate environment, the fun cocktails and of course -- the amazing food. I've been to There during the pandemic when they were doing chefs menus only, and that was such a treat to try new things. Their a La Carte menu is great of course too, but I recommend you choose something you wouldn't normally get when ordering. All of it is fabulous. During Happy Hour, you can get get a great deal on waygu sliders (and more of course). I recommend getting reservations way in advance. It's a hot spot (and pretty small so limited seating). WARNING!!! If you ask to do a shotski they WILL ANNOUNCE IT to the whole bar on a megaphone! read more

The food was incredible and the flavors were amazing! The ambiance is personal and inviting. The space is small but definitely a must try if you can get inside. We will definitely be back for the Wagyu. Amazing! read more

Organized chaos! The guys running this place operate on the edge, but somehow it all comes together. there is a bit quirky and different, but worth your time and effort for great drinks and food. The inside reminds me of a glorified food truck, with few tables and bar seating, yet they turn out some tasty shareables. The cocktails are the BEST around, creative and with quality fresh ingredients. Good wine list by the glass. Service is not particularly good. We waited over 15 minutes just to order, then the Act 1 Brussel Sprouts came out immediately and we were still waiting for the first cocktail. btw, the bartender is a master--watching him work and make multiple drinks is a work of art. He is really Good. The food is pretty darn good as well. Duck bao buns good. The crab cake was just alright. The grouper tostado exceptional. Reservations required --they turned away several people who tried to walk-in. The vibe is lively and the place is really loud. read more

First time in Telluride and wanted to grab a bite to eat. Luckily the reviews brought me here. The place is small but full of character and has amazing food. We had the Brussel sprouts, wagyu skewers, bao buns with duck, and the lamb lollipops. Everything was delectable and the sauces were creative and delicious. The bartenders were so entertaining and welcoming. Definitely recommend. read more

The staff can improve by treating their guests with respect. I cannot testify for the food and drink because my group didn't even make it that far at this establishment. read more

If you eat at one place in Telluride, eat here. The Brussels are to die for. The waygu burger and cucumbers and all of it. Kudos to the kitchen!! Also shout out to Aubrey who made our dinner extra special! Cheers from Mellen! read more

A very interesting menu. The sauce on the duck bao buns made them delicious. The shiitake bao buns were just okay and tasted pretty plain. The deep fried Brussel sprout leaves were amazing! The cauliflower and potatoes were also amazing. I'd highly recommend those for sure!! read more

Food: 4/5 (some dishes are a reach. Specifically, the bao buns were not very good, though most everything else is tasty. I appreciate the menu's variety and willingness to be bold0 Ambiance: 5/5 (though it does get hot. AWESOME interior and vibe) Drinks: 5/5 Service: 5/5 (everyone that works here is super friendly) read more

We had appetizers and drinks- great place- very busy and you definitely need a reservation- we lucked out w a cancellation for a short window and sat at the bar- staff is friendly and laid back- the apps were great! The drinks were wonderful- I'd definitely one back for dinner if ever in town again. read more

The best of the best! This small 6 table (+bar) masterpiece is a hidden gem in Telluride. It's shocking how 3 people can run the front of the house so well, but these employees are geniuses at the bar and masters during all aspects of service. Plus, the music is fun...singing along to every word! Now let's talk food. I mean....WHOA! First of all, the drinks are delicious. I highly recommend the Saketini is you love Sake and martinis. I'm making this one at home! Each table gets a bag of popcorn. It tastes like it has bacon butter on it but the servers corrected us with how they actually made it. I unfortunately can't remember but it is delicious! We started off with the shishaki peppers. I couldn't stop eating them. We ordered a lot from Act I on the menu so we skipped Act II. From Act I, we we able to order two bun options on lettuce, since I'm GF. We also ordered the prawns and the wagyu. Both perfectly cooked! We finished the meal with sharing the lamb lollipops. Again perfectly cooked and in the end the entire meal was a perfect size for dinner. This place is amazing and I'm a little bit reluctant to tell you because next time I'm going to TRide I want to be able to get a table! Enjoy! read more

Everything was PERFECT until one specific server just gave us our check without asking if we wanted something else. Zero comment went we said everything was great. Very strange! If you want to be welcomed, have great cocktails and food, come here. Just don't except a thank you with your check. :/ read more

We love There. It is a quirky little (really, it is small) place, but perfect for Telluride and if you know the area, it is a no-brainer There is there. :) Reservations are HIGHLY recommended though we have been there when a couple of parties of 2 arrived and were able to be seated without them. The menu is small but good. Prices are high but it is Telluride. We really like the brussels, duck buns, elk buns, and their fun/free popcorn. Their drinks are very good, too. We have enjoyed sitting at a few spots inside, but the bar is fun to watch drinks and maybe strike up a convo. If you go and you are unsure about how you like it...go back again. It will grow on you. Staff are very nice as well. read more

Wow... Such mixed emotions.. on one hand I have so many great things to say about this place but sometimes just one thing/person can ruin the whole experience. If you like Rap music with the "N" word, this is your place. If you like a bartender pushing you to order and leave because they have more reservations behind you and you've only been here fifteen minutes, If you like seeing the staff take a "Shift Shot" every few minutes while you wait on your drinks, then this is your place. However, if you want excellent drinks made with a fresh and creative twist, and you find that Ritchie, the Chef is a genuine guy wanting each and every guest to have a genuinely delightful experience, then this is also your kind of place. So, I have mixed emotions and hence my mixed review. I'd return here for sure but I'd hope that T***** was not on duty. I've heard that "A company is as weak as it's worst employee" and in this case that is a fact. I regret not being able to offer a 5 star review because that would truly be my hope of any place I drop over $100 per head. Maybe next time? read more

Food was okay but the service was terrible. We were so excited to experience this place after walking by a few times and feeling the high energy so we were very disappointed in the service. Started off strong but then completely ignored by Tyler. When he finally came over he told us it was last call for food. Well heck we were there for 30 mins with empty plates waiting on someone to take our Act 2 order. Would not return. read more

I was so sad when the Denver location closed, but glad that the original Telluride location was still open! There's not a lot of seating available during COVID so make sure to make reservations ahead of time. POPCORN - Free appetizer! WAGYU TARTAR - delicious! SPICY DUCK BUN - Duck was delicious, but could have been spicier WAGYU SALAD - Always my favorite! Truffle balsamic and the wagyu is always perfectly cooked! Great meal and their drinks are fantastic too! You can also get everything togo including drinks. read more

Food was very delicious. The portions for the price you pay are $$$ They are going for a fancy vibe in food but the service and ambiance itself don't match the price you pay. Definitely not a place for groups. This is the perfect spot for a date night! Super cute place. read more

I'd give the eclectic, creative menu twenty stars if I could, but the bartender was so rude that it ruined our experience. We had a couple of creative, whimsical cocktails but the bartender and almost every staff we encountered were so unfriendly, it wasn't worth the whimsy. Our local friends warned us, they told us that they've left because of the attitudes, half way through their meals... but I was curious. I made a reservation for dinner, but we stayed for one cocktail. That should tell you something. To the bar staff: Get over yourselves, be nice to your guests. You're making food and cocktails not solving the national health care crisis... (would be great if you would with all of that hot air lol) And P.S., the other guests at the bar that evening thought the exact same thing I'm writing in this review. Why would you want a reputation like that? read more

I really enjoyed this location. The interior is special and the food is fabulous. The shishito peppers are delicious as are the duck bao buns, everything was perfectly prepared and just a treat for my mouth. Highly recommend this restaurant. read more

Hidden gem in Telluride. Great happy hour, great dinner menu, just don't forget to make a reservation!!

Great happy hour! I loved the old fashioned and the cauliflower. I cannot wait to try the bao buns next time!

Came here for a cocktail before a dinner reservation elsewhere and ended up loving it so much we stayed for two cocktails and an app. We sat at the bar and had a great experience -- the complimentary popcorn right when you sit down is a great touch. I got two jam drinks: one with red pepper jam and rum and one with blueberry jam and vodka. Both were great and in a world where it's hard to be inventive with cocktails, they were like nothing I'd ever had before. Highly recommend. We had the cauliflower as an appetizer and were very impressed. Again, in a world where cauliflower seems so overdone, this was unique and the furthest thing from bland. If I'm ever in telluride again, I will definitely come back and stay for dinner. read more

Quaint spot by our Airbnb and seems like this place was popping so we dropped in! A tad bit away from the main strip of Telluride, the ambiance was not as overly crowded and more intimate. As for the menu it's tapas style. Our group shared some Brussel Sprouts and Shishito Peppers; not much to speak about in my mind. For my main bites I ordered the Smoked Trout Rillet and the Wagyu Steak Skewers. The trout was not as fishy as I thought; atop a crispy chip was a nice added texture. The cream and caviar help provide a smooth and minor salty sting to the palates. The Wagyu was the highlight for me. It was tender and broiled to perfection with just a tad bit of bleed. In the end, There was a nice away from the crowd stop for our group. Their beverage menu was delightful and the service was on spot! - Enjoy! read more

There, there, there. I really wanted to give a 5 here...the food is truly unique and perfectly plated, presented, designed. The space small and quaint. It is a tad pricey...but we are in Telluride. Sadly I think the service/ employees are influenced by previous insensitive and perhaps ignorant posts of yelpers. When we arrived at 4:15 the bartender immediately greeted us with "do you have a reservation?". We were there for happy hour...in a downpour..at the time there were 2 empty seats at the bar...and I had read online that reservations could not be made for happy hour. Her 2 friends pass by us...she greets them happily with "there are 2 seats at the back." I say...we do not...we are here for happy hour. To which she replies, "we have no more seats." I respond, "yes...I see they were just taken." She says, "they have a reservation...but I can let you sit at a table for maybe an hour." I had read reviews...I knew this poor reception might happen. We are seated...and I locate where it shows this establishment does not take reservations for happy hour. We order with our waitress who is equally curt and informs us we can only sit for maybe an hour. She returns with our drink and I try to show her where I read no reservations. She actually says, "you are being too technical." I check in on yelp...and...wonder do they know I check in? Because now our waitress is sugar and spice. I have waitressed, hostessed, cooked in a kitchen...have children who have worked and work similarly (my daughter bartends in the summers). I have an idea what it is to do this work; I have no idea what it is to work under the current conditions where restaurants are consistently so short handed. So...I am giving the place a 4. Truly it is only a 4 for me. Nothing I would return to. The reception and treatment (we watched as other couples were treated similarly) would earn this establisent a 1...but it is a time for all of us to be understanding and kind. I only hope the owner can build up their employees in spirit and work toward a better plan for this establishment. read more

So good!! A visit to There Bar is a must for your visit to Telluride. Make a reservation for dinner and order the wagu and greens.

Ambience is maximalist, but the standout was the food: Asian-inspired tapas style selections. Mussels were outstanding among several impressive dishes. Service was attentive without being intrusive. read more

This restaurant deserves all the praise it gets!! The shishito peppers were delicious with a combo of sweet and salty. The duck bao buns were outstanding and perfectly cooked. The real star of the show was the mussels! Highly recommend this restaurant! read more

Amazing drinks and food! We tried the rice noodles, venison egg rolls, fried chicken and the steak. Definitely recommend getting plenty of items and sharing, the menu is more of a small bites vibe. Service was incredible and super friendly! We will be back! read more

We came here for a cocktail + some apps before a dinner ressy elsewhere. Wow, we are so glad we did. We started off with a jam drink. Life changed. I wish they offered these in Kansas City. I ordered a tequila with raspberry jam. HOLY DELICIOUSNESS!!!!! We started off with the brussels sprouts. Got them extra crunchy + they were probably my favorite thing we ordered. Next, we ordered the spicy duck buns. The guys really enjoyed them but to me they weren't anything special. Papas bravas was the next item we ordered with a fried egg on top. Super delish but the brussels were probably the best one. Lastly, we ordered the mussels. They had so much flavor + fed all of us. We can't wait to come back when we visit! read more

Amazing food, excellent drinks, very poor service. We've been here twice in a row on our last two visits to town and both times have left extremely impressed with the food and even more irked by the service. So much so that we will not come back on our next trip. Last time 3 of us were waiting outside past our reservation time. The bar tender then let in a group of 6 people who didn't have reservations right ahead of us, they were seemingly his buddies, as he told them they need to make reservations next time... During both visits we were rushed out by giving us a time limit on our table and telling us another reservation was coming so we had to hurry up... They made us feel like we were overstaying our welcome as we ordered plate after plate and drink after drink. I understand it's a small place, but they need to come up with a better solution, this is rude and unprofessional. The food and drinks are great and this is the exact type of place you want to sit at, chill, order small plate after small plate, drink after drink; and just relax and talk with your friends. But, unfortunately you cannot do that here. It's a real shame, and in writing this I truly hope they change their service model because I would gladly spend $500 in a night here if they ever actually just let me... read more

Small, quirky, local, fun, music, boozie, friendly, foodie. Just a few words to describe the vibe at There.

Really innovative menu and personable service. This is a great quant venue in a beautiful town.

Small, quant, completely fun and hip restaurant with an equally fun and knowledgeable staff. read more

Way overpriced with small shareable bites that are a bit hilarious as to how small they are and how expensive for miniscule portions. Had a salad as a main course and it was a very small portion of romaine lettuce with a teaspoon full of yogurt type sauce. Nothing else. No nuts, no veggies etc. Try at least guys. Noise was overwhelming, impossible to converse. Waiter was a bit too cool for school. May be a good place for drinks ( large bar crowd) but not for a real dinner. read more

We visited Telluride during the off seasons. Found out 'There' was one of a few restaurants that was open. (Thank goddess). We've ordered each peach and coconuts flavored cocktails, it tasted so good. The bartender legit put extra love in our drinks, I got pretty buzzed after a drink, haha! Then we ordered pork belly, chicken, duck steamed buns were also delicious!! The chicken lettuce warp tasted like Korean spicy chicken. I was impressed! read more

Tiki bar, so was very excited. BUT the Drinks are over priced and not good. Food menu was lack-luster (6-8 items tops). If you have a small menu, make sure to make your options desirable. Ordered the elk dumplings, way too salty. Staff seemed unorganized. Felt chaotic with 4 servers on and not a lot of tables to take care of. Music was so loud inside I could barely hear myself talk. It is definitely a tourist spot. read more

Whenever we visit Telluride we always make sure to visit There! Love the food & cocktails! We usually just order a bunch of the small bites to share - perfect for indulging without feeling like your over indulging! It's very small and eclectic. Service is always excellent. They have an excellent cocktail list with talented bartenders. The Pork Belly skewers are a must! The Tuna & Wagyu Tartare are amazing! And I love the Elk Lettuce Wraps! read more

Always consistently above the fold. Excellent recipes. The best Brussels sprouts you have every tasted a must try. Spicy duck buns are one of their staples and the burger is also always a winner. The bartender are true mixologists and take every drink very seriously. At THERE you should experiment on any cocktail you have never tried before they will make it right! read more

Food is great. Love the Pisco Sours! You get a very different set of food choices and drinks. This restaurant is unique and delicious. Highly recommend. Always busy and hard to get in because it is such a small place (which is part of its charm). Make a reservation (and if none available sometimes if you call they can still squeeze you in). read more
