On a pleasant summer evening the abiance of Vintage's outdoor garden seating is perhaps the nicest in the Sun Valley area. The menu has a somewhat limited range of offerings, a feature I generally find encouraging as it generally means these are the strongest offerings from this kitchen. The evening we dined the menu was augmented with quite a few specialties of the day. One of these we tried was 'smoked tomato with burrata'. The tomatoes were excellent, some of the sweetest and tastiest I've had in quite a while. The 'smoke' was a nice touch but was only really apparent on the red tomato. The yellow tomatoes were still very fine. And the burrata was a lucious creamy topping. The 'shouldn't-miss' items were reported to us by our server as the tamale starter, the duck and the chicken. We ordered all three. The tamale was presented as this huge corn husk package with shrimp 'exploding' from the top. The shrimp are seasoned with a tangy sauce and the whole tamale sits in a similar broth. The duck was nicely prepared, the meat being tender and flavorful. The shortcoming was the paucity of sauce. It was very nice, sweet but still savory fruit sauce. There was just not enough to pair with the amount of duck meat served. As for the chicken, it is nicely crusted (pecan I believe). My chicken was slightly overcooked, making it a tad dry. But the accompanying potatoes were outstanding. The wine list offers a nice selection of half bottles which I often find ideal for a dining couple. Our service was congenial and efficient. The grilled peach dessert would have been very fine had the white peach itself been sweet. But when serving fresh fruit, it can be a roll of the dice. read more

I would say a 7 out of 10....in the beginning, the service put a damper on our experience....salad and soup, very good, however, the chicken was fair. Honestly, after reading the reviews, the expectations may have been too high. read more

This name doesn't do this place justice. We stumbled upon this walking through the streets of Sun Valley and it DID NOT disappoint. We came in for a glass of wine before heading home and decided to try the shrimp tamale appetizer. There are no words to describe how delicious it was...13 dry spices to make the sauce for it paired with shrimp and a delicious aioli. I need 7 more just to be satisfied because it was SO good. The service was EXCELLENT. They deserve more than 5 stars. The hostess was great. Our server Robin was great with recommendations and gracious in every single way. The chef even came over to chat with us after our meal. We sat in the adorable outdoor patio. Definitely making this a go-to spot every time I visit from here on out. read more

Wish I could give it 10 stars. This was a phenomenal dinner. Perfect, romantic setting (we sat outside), amazing food, very friendly and helpful staff. We got the shrimp tamales, watermelon gazpacho with crab, and a burrata/tomato salad to start. Main course was amazing too. Only downside is the food was so good and filling, that I had no room for dessert. read more

There is no website. No ability to make a reservation on line. No Open Table access and when you call you get a message that the line is occupied or busy. In 2018 I don't care how good you are, making it this difficult to even try your place is either arrogance, stupidity or ignorance. Somebody get to these owners/operators and introduce them to the 21st century. I left a message as well, per instructions, that tell you don't assume you have a table unless they get back to you, which of course no one did. Have eaten in fantastic places in every major metropolitan area in this country. Have never encountered this level of absurdity. Vintage indeed read more

Where do I start. Small and to quiet. Could have used soft music. Went on Valentine's night with 6 people. Nothing special for occasion. Waitress was bothered when I asked her to tell me the scallop special. Scallops were under cooked and 2 tablespoons of couscous. Was size of most appetizers. There was no wine under 45.00 a bottle don't try to ask about the wines you may get sent to corner. The steak was tough and chewy. The only thing good was the Chicken and Ice Cream Balls. 6 people wine 2 deserts 500.00 That's criminal for dinner in a 1 room cabin Never will we return. Oh yes the waitress barely said thank you!!!!! read more

I normally don't write reviews, but I just had the best meal since I arrived sun valley 4 weeks ago! read more

Great little spot with a perfect wine selection, beer selection is lacking but beer probably isn't too high on their list. They have a 5 star menu and that included a burger. As a burger connoisseur I had to try it. They used a kind mix of beef, I recall top sirloin and rib eye with blue cheese. Again, the char was perfect and I'd have to say that they could take the top spot on my Sun Valley burger list if I got it medium rare and not medium. It wasn't red in the middle. They put together a perfect mix, the blue cheese couldn't have opened up the palate for the taste of the burger any better. I tried it with and without ketchup, go without and make sure you get cheese and burger in one bite. Delicioso! read more

Amazing restaraunt in Sun Valley, Idaho! My husband had the steak and I had the halibut. Both were incredible! I wish this restaraunt was in my town, I would go weekly. Don't miss out if you find yourself in Sun Valley, Idaho. read more

Love, love, love this place! The new owners have maintained the quality of food. Always a must when we visit Sun Valley every year! read more

Vintage - Halibut cheek with saffron rice, jicama, watercress and avacado - Venues & Event Spaces Near Me - Ketchum, Idaho

We were a little late calling in for reservations, so sat indoors instead of out. On a summer evening, the outdoor patio looks delightful. Inside the cabin was quiet and roomy. The waitress was exceptionally informative and friendly - very positive impression. She acted like it was her personal restaurant and the impression she gave of it was critical to our experience. We had crab cakes as an appetizer that were excellent. My wife had a daily special sea bass that was good with a very tasty sauce. I had a daily special "comfort plate" which was basically a sampler of several meats - pork, sausage, beef, chicken, spare rib. The chicken was ordinary but the rest was excellent and tasty. The chocolate pie dessert was to die for. HIGHLY recommended. In general, a little pricey, but it was our 25th anniversary dinner and we felt it was worth the price. read more

As good as it gets! It was our 32nd Anniversary dinner. I won't share the table number, because it was the best table in the house and I want it to myself! Each course was unique in flavor and wonderful. As soon as we sat down, we were given a basket of home baked warm, soft in the middle, light crust topped bread. The waitress called the salad their signature salad, with unique flavors and beautifully presented. The main course of scallops for me and lamb for my husband were perfectly cooked and presented. Our small changes were made with a smile and perfectly done. The dessert, also a signature dessert, was perfect in every bite. Do not expect large portions, but do expect perfect food! read more

One of our favorite restaurants in Ketchum. Unfortunately they don't seem to know how to modify got Covid requirements. Reservation made weeks in advance to sit outside. We arrive on time and all outside tables are seated. Offered inside to wait it out at minimum 30 minutes it probably more like an hour. We told them when made reservation not comfortable being inside. So we just left when that was all that was offered. No effort at all or apology for overbooking. Didn't acknowledge the departure or mistake in seating. read more

This truly is one of THE best restaurants in the world..hands down! If you are going to Sun Valley you MUST make reservations ahead of time...it only seats 20 read more

Vintage is quaint and tidy with spot-on service and delicious food. Pricier but absolutely worth every penny. We will come back every year.

Omg. They talked me into the duck and it was hands down the best duck in the world! The burrata salad was epic to start and they pointed us to a great wine at great value....owners/staff lovely. read more

We were lucky enough to speak to Rodrigo who welcomed us as if we were long lost family. Based on the reviews from friends (as well as those on Yelp), we asked him to surprise us - for isolation reasons we only had 45 minutes... and what a masterpiece it was. The oyster soup was easily the best we've ever head (Europe or US). The fresh oysters were fantastic. Rodrigo's take on the shrimp tamale is as fresh and earthy as anything I've ever had from either my Mexican grandmother or any chef in LA or NYC (and as you may guess/know, LA has some spectacular chef-takes on tamales). The range of spices -literally- gave us a food buzz. The fish and risotto were perfect - and thank goodness they kept us in fresh sourdough baguettes which were a perfectly tangy way to sop up the sauce. Thanks to Alejandra and Robin! The best meal experience we've had in a few years. Btw the Sea Smoke (a fantastic wine) was a perfect match -to say it was equal to the task tells you how special Rodrigo's talent is. BLOWN AWAY that we found this in mid-Idaho... Wow. read more

Terrific burrata! Great service and very accommodating with a newborn! Just don't ask for ketchup and mustard lol.

WOW! If you haven't dined at Vintage ... why not? Each and every plate (or bowl) is absolutely savory. I started with a glass of the Bella Glos Pinot & I'm happy I did as it paired wonderfully with the Shrimp Bisque and Cajun Oysters (perfectly spiced-bivalve mollusk, or about a 3 on the New Orlean's-spicy scale ... ranging from 1 to 11 (as this food goes to ELEVEN). My wife's choices, the "Vintage Salad" to start followed by the "Duck"; yeah "Duck" ... I didn't say the chef could write, but boy is he great at cheffing! And furthermore, I hoped to educate you on the Burrata with balsamic caviar, Vanilla Panna Cotta and the 1999 Chateau d'Yquem but my tummy was full! Very. read more

Ordered a steak rare and it came back past well done, my S/O ordered the scallops which were undercooked, appetizers were either surprisingly small or not what was advertised definitely not what we expected for the level of ratings it previously received. read more

Chose this restaurant by chance and so glad we did!! A beautiful place with the most amazing food and service. We had the Tamale appetizer, scallop dish and elk steak, finished with desert- It was just phenomenal. We'll be back! read more

Spectacular dinner at Vintage tonight. Continues to be the best restaurant in Ketchum. Sat outside on their large shaded patio. Shrimp tamales are the bomb.....a perennial favorite. Had the Elk Chop special which was the best game dish I've ever had. Always top notch. read more

The outdoor area was lovely & the wait staff was very courteous. Awesome wine menu including mini-wine bottles & a good small selection by glass. The crab cakes are AMAZING and we definitely could have ordered a 2nd serving. The watermelon salad was light & well done, though I could have used a touch more contrast to the sweet of the watermelon. For dinner we had the cod with a sweet corn risotto & it was perfection. read more

The best food in Ketchum Id. We go every time we are in town. great food & wine... don't miss it.

Top 10 list! All 5 meals were amazing. The duck was out of this world as was the special crab stuffed trout. I am still not sure how they made grapes taste like apple pie. The service was amazing! The Vintage is a must, make your reservation in advance as there are only 7 tables in the historic cabin. Can't wait to go back.!! read more

Excellent service formal without being pretentious- extensive wine list- the meal was excellent. We dined there with our children so it is relaxed enough for dining with kids however you will pay for an adult portion as this seems to be their main clientele. As to the meal itself: some of the appetizers were not available and were replaced with a few others that were seasonally appropriate as well as delicious. We ordered their asparagus and grilled shrimp soup which was outstanding - for main courses we had the fish of the day Halibut with kale and cheesy mashed potatoes -delicious- the fish was cooked just right and felt very fresh; the chicken encrusted on pecan although very flavorful and served with a cranberry orange compote was a bit on the dry side. Son ordered rack of lamb: two hefty little chops cooked on the rare side though ordered medium rare- son was thrilled nevertheless since it's better than overdone. One little thing was that it could use a better trimming of the fat cap but it's understandable. Hubby ordered crispy half duck-HUGE portion actually. The skin was not crispy as offered but again it was extremely flavorful and presented on a wine reduction with actual grapes and a wild rice pancakes- For dessert we ordered the naked stranger the flour less chocolate cake although it's not a cake really more a dense mass of dark chocolate on a pond of delicious berry wine reduction and accompanied by vanilla ice cream. Also ordered the bread pudding on a whiskey sauce reduction - it's is served piping hot!!! And it's to die for IMO!!! Very light density and crusty on the bottom - the raisins are on top so if you don't like them you can set them aside. All in all : agreed best meal so far in Ketchum!!! Will be back today for lunch:P!!! Pictures posted. read more

Acceptable wine selection, apps were tasty. I was expecting to get wow'd by the duck but wasn't. The steak that my wife had was excellent. I'd try again based on their great attitude, good service and what appears to be a very custom approach to food prep. read more

Food is great but service isn't the best. Really got the feeling if you were not a regular you are not worth their time. Asked waitress what does she prefer out of two things and her comment was everything we serve is good. Finished our bottle of wine and nobody asked if we wanted another one nor were are water glasses filled at any point in three hours. Ask for more bread and was told "yea but it will be awhile". Ordered coffee and dessert. coffee came out right away the two scoops of ice cream took 45 minutes and never once did anyone offer to refill my coffee. There is other places in town I will drop $500 next time. read more

First time here and the food and service was out of this world, can t wait to come back .

The food was amazing! We had the duck. Outstanding. Atmosphere is lovely, clean and cozy.

Six of us visited Vintage in January based on a great recommendation from a friend. We were the only guests for most of our dinner. One other couple came in as we were just about ready to leave. It has a great atmosphere, other than that, it was a big disappointment. The tiny appetizers were flavorful, though the somewhat arrogant server was perturbed when the ladies ordered them as entrees. I had the $40 steak special which was fairly ordinary. The wine was very overpriced at $45 for an OK Chardonnay and $72 for so so Cabernet. Maybe it was because we were the only one there, but all of us felt the server hovered around us creepily listening to our dinner conversation. read more

Really quaint cabin with a unique menu. Everything was so delicious and we wish we could've ordered the whole menu. Also they have a long list of specials! Really great atmosphere and wait staff was so friendly. Would definitely go back! read more

Where do you start, do you start with the fact having outrageous prices doesn't make your food any better, or that Sysco really isn't a place where a restaurant that dubs its self as "nice" should get there produce from. Why don't you guys actually try something new, change up the inside and maybe think out of the box on your menu. It isn't hard to keep making something that you know is going to sell, and never changing it. But it is hard to do something new, something that you have never done before, something that actually takes talent. Theres no reason to call someone chief if your kitchen just works like a factory day in and day out, pumping out the same old stuff you always have. read more

Disappointing experience especially based on reviews. From the moment we arrived for our reserved time, I had doubts. We stood awhile before being greeted, then a very rushed young man asked us to wait while our table was set. That was ok... not a great start but I overlooked it. Unfortunately it didn't get better. Our waitress was rushed and short with us... always in a hurry to move on. Starters were good and my friends' entrees were good, but my chicken was shockingly undercooked. They comp'd the chicken and 2 desserts which was gracious, but combined with the poor service, I won't go back. read more

I've been coming to Ketchum/Sun Valley for 20 years. In that time, there has never been a better restaurant in the area than Vintage. In fact, it's up there with some of the top restaurants in Seattle, New York, and elsewhere. It is not a place you will forget. Vintage is small, so make your reservations in advance. Somebody should order the shrimp tamale for a starter. Everything here is good. Don't miss it. read more

Overall, this place is a lovely spot to share an intimate and unpretentious meal. The service was exceptional - warm and friendly but genuine and not over the top. The wine list was impressive, and the menu rotates based on what's local and seasonal - which I love! It was my mother and I's vacation, and it was a perfect spot for us, but would also be great for date night, small adult groups, etc. The rustic cabin walls mixed with candles and linens were a great combo. The food was all very well prepared and plated. I would recommend this spot for any special meal. read more

My Eye of the Rib steak was terrific as was all the other food. The shrimp and sweet corn tamale appetizer was scrumptious! Great service too. read more

We had a wonderful meal at Vintage. Lovely, warm atmosphere; delicious food; genuine service. We went with our two kids and they were very accommodating. I would definitely recommend it, and would return if we are ever in Sun Valley again. read more

Inside or outside, do dinner here. Great wine selection here if you know what you want (Somm was willing but needed some depth). Our table shared starters and entrees and could not have been happier with the selection and portions. Fresh fig with burrata balsamic and caviar was plated perfectly and tasted better than it looked. The bitterness of arugula salad proved the essential offset to the heavier sauces for the steak and pecan crusted chicken. We were well attended but did not feel rushed. read more

Delicious food, lovely atmosphere and friendly staff. Sitting outside under their heat lamps is beautiful! The food is always fresh and delicious and they have really great specials! Reservation suggested! read more
