Our favorites were the panzanella salad with fresh peaches, tomatoes, goat cheese ect - so so good. Then the eggplant, steak with the pais butter (curry flare), lamb kabob (the kids fought over it) , chicken (we all fought over that) and the potatoes. Also the special dessert peach dish with corn bread and brown butter was incredible. Service was amazing and everyone was so kind. We sat outside on the patio, a rock wall around us, Edison bulb lights, and the jazz fest was going on so we had beautiful music in the background on this warm summer night. It truly was magical. A must do.

Let me tell you, there was a not an ounce of food left on the plates! Multiple people at the table said that this was one of the best meals they have ever had and I have to agree. You just have to try it for yourself. I'm distraught that this meal is so far from home. Unbelievable. And that's just the food! Deserves a Michelin star. The ambiance is beautiful and moody, and the service is impeccable! Our waiter, Brenden, was amazing! He was genuinely so kind and knowledgeable about the menu, and you and truly tell that he loves what he does. Brenden added so much to the ambiance and dinner as well. He was passionate about the farm to table experience! Overall, amazing amazing meal. Deserves the 5 stars more than any other of my 400 yelp reviews.

We split the ribeye, and my fiancé and I had to take home a to-go Box! Dark chocolate awaits at the end of the meal, flourless chocolate tort to die for! I'm a huge fan.

We tried it for both brunch and dinner, and had a great experience for both. Service was good during both visits. Dinner had about a 40-minute wait, while brunch had no wait at all. Since it's located in a mountain town, the dress code is definitely casual--but I'd say this is one of those places where you could easily dress it up a little if you wanted to. The atmosphere is fun, modern, and relaxed, with a great location. Definitely worth checking out if you're in town!

This had to be one of the greatest meat meals of my life. We were in Mt Crested Butte, an amazing…read moremountain town with an adorable downtown dotted with great dining. 212 Elk Ave is the location of the aptly named 212 restaurant. They specialize in live fire cooking and we were lucky enough to get a booth right across from the action as you will see in the pics. They use a mix of red and white oak to control the heat along with a series of movable grill plates. We started with a delicious Strawberry Salad that also had watermelon radish and delicate greens lightly tossed in a vinaigrette. Coming from Arizona, I had to try the Pozole and thrilled I did. The rich red broth gave light to the chili heart of this very complex liquid. The pozole had great texture and the shredded pork was tender and outstanding. An excellent example of this favorite dish. The most amazing entree was the main course. It was a shareable Half Elk Rack. While I like medium rare, when it was brought to the table, I thought it might be too rare. As soon as I tasted it, I realized it was perfection. It was so tender and the chew was great, especially on the end pieces that had an incredible bark on the outside. Elk is an extremely lean dish so to add some unctuous notes, they take Fois Gras, and as the fat renders, add huckleberries before putting it in a blender to create a heavenly base. We couldn't resist dragging every bite across the serving plate to savor the magic. As a side dish, we ordered the squash which was also perfectly roasted over the live fire and complimented the dish.

I liked how it actually had N/A liquor in it. My husband got the SECRET GARDEN - loved the lavender earl gray. For a starter, we split the BAHN MI QUAIL - super inventive, never had quail before. Kind of hard to eat around the small bones but loved the stuffed flavors! For dinner, we shared two dishes: ELK SAUSAGE & PEPPERS PASTA and PORK CHOP. The pasta was very so-so, nothing that blew me away. However, the pork chop was super tasty - loved the sauce. For dessert, we shared limoncello sorbet - perfect amount of refreshing and loved the fun strawberry powder! Our server was super nice and attentive. Really nice experience overall!

We loved our meal at The Breadery The Flamin' Pickle Martini was out of this world. Hands down one of my all time favorite drinks. There is a kick, but it's not overpowering, same with the pickle flavor. It was top notch. We started out with a few types of the sourdough. They came out hot and perfectly baked. Highly recommend you order the special sourdough of the day (whatever it is, it will be amazing) and to try some of the spreads (if you like beets, you need the beat goat cheese spread). I ordered the spaghetti and added meatballs. The noodles were amazing, the sauce was perfect, and the meatballs added a nice touch. Honestly, you can't order anything bad here, so order whatever sounds the tastiest. It's the best!

I didn't even get to take a photo of the pretzel because I completely annihilated it. It was phenomenal. I came to my senses enough go photograph the sandwich, it was also amazingly good. I passed the loaf around to everyone at my table and we all really liked it. I also got a cute little mason jar for my drink which is so cool. The eatery is inside a little shop so the vibe is very granola in the best way. It smells incredible inside. The staff is also so incredibly nice and gave me several recommendations and made it all seem like incredible options. The price point is high, but i'm learning that's just Colorado in general.

When we first arrived, the hostess let us know that they were experiencing staffing issues…read moreinforming us that the food/service might take a little bit longer, but that they'd be happy to get us seated. The patio was gorgeous, and the food was my favorite meal I had while visiting Crested Butte! I was amazed at how quickly we were helped, especially considering them being short staffed on top of them hosting a wedding party. I mostly wanted to leave a review because our server (I believe his name was Daniel) was incredible. As somebody who works in food service, it can feel like a lot of pressure to tend to each guest, but he was incredibly kind and helpful throughout our entire meal! I asked him for a recommendation between 2 brews I was deciding on, and even after I said I trusted his judgment, he STILL brought me both options for me to try, so that I could decide for myself. He recommended we also add the cheese fondue for the pretzel we got as an appetizer, and I would trust the man with my life... lol. I experienced firsthand how wonderful of a server he was, and was absolutely appalled by the treatment he received from the guests at the table next to us. I understand things happen and communication can be difficult when there's so much going on, but they were giving the server a hard time when they received a drink they supposedly hadn't ordered. The server was able to get it removed from their bill, and it seemed like it had been handled politely and quickly. Not long after I saw their food arrive, I watched one of the guests complain about something... Daniel immediately took it back to the kitchen to fix it, but as he walked away I noticed the group of men laughing at him. While Daniel remained patient, and did everything he could to satisfy them, it was incredibly disheartening to see somebody so kind, who'd been working incredibly hard, be treated the way he was. It seemed to me as though they were finding humor in making him run around. While I like to assume best intent, watching them laugh as he addressed their concerns and rushed to fix them made me feel as though they'd done so on purpose. Daniel took it like a champ, and still continued to check in with us throughout the meal. I hope Bruhaus knows how grateful myself and so many others are, to be served by such kind people! THANK YOU
