Best European Restaurants in Manitou Springs

The owners were great as well as the service. Our starters and cocktails were fantastic, my main dish was the sirloin stroganoff and the edges were rare but towards the middle it got very blue so packed it up to bring it home. The seasoning was great but it was a lot under done. I think my wife was a little underwhelmed with her pierogies but the duck sausage was delicious. The desserts were great too.

The food was incredible and they easily accommodated for gluten free. The waitresses were incredible and you can tell they work hard to make your night special!

Our server was not as attentive as I would have liked. It was Valentines Day and the winery had a special menu. After we were seated at our table, we were given the regular menus. When our server vame to get our drink orders,we had to ask for the special menu. We ordered a bottle of white wine which arrived at room temperature in a metal wine bottle cooler with ice at the bottom. At the end of the meal, our server did apologize for being slow. The owner made her presence known to everybody. She went to each table several times to chat and check on the customers. She made us and everybody feel welcome. The food was delicious! We started with crab stuffed mushrooms. My wife had the seated scallops and I had the New York strip steak. The scallops were seasoned and cooked perfectly, not salty or overcooked. I ordered my steak rare and it, too, was cooked perfectly. For dessert, we had the New Tork cheesecake and the key lime tart. Our overall experience was a fun night and a great way to celebrate Valentines Day.

Perfect Valentines date and we are looking forward to coming back so we can try more! The interior is so unique with many little sitting nooks and feels like you’re on a cozy European patio. They make a delicious Lemon Drop and he enjoyed the New York Sour. The White Wine Brie Fondue was lovely, especially with the ASTOUNDING Olive Bread. I will come back for this alone! There was non-olive bread for the olive haters as well as broccoli, cauliflower, carrots, apples, and grapes. The fondue was switched out for a grill for the mains- he enjoyed the Surf & Turf, especially the turf, and my Vegetarian Entree included polenta, hearts of palm, baby corn, asparagus, mushrooms, peppers, squash, vegan andouille sausage, and more. The roasted baby potatoes and mini mozzarella fondue with each entree were also nice, and there were 6 dipping sauces to try. We got a Dark Chocolate Baileys Fondue to-go which came with cheesecake, brownie, pound cake, iced blueberry loaf, graham cracker, pretzel, pineapple, banana, strawberry, and apple. But the best part of the night was when our very attentive server came with a rose for me and the check for he. Thank you, Mona Lisa, we will be back!

John serve just very well. They have nice happy hour deals and all of the food we had was delicious! I especially recommend the mahi bacon tacos.
