    Excellent meal and great ambiance reminds of times in Germany and Switzerland. Great vibe and excellent service. The meal offering is very authentic and true to my experience in Europe. Authentic but not kitschy. Even after the Covid challenges, Alpenrose continues to shine in Vail! Highly recommend!

    Incredible food, quality and service. We all enjoyed our wood and wine greatly and will highly recommend. Only thing i wish was different is that we were told what the market price was to previously ordering. Our mistake too that we didnt ask because when the check came, we were in sticker shock that our steak dish was over $325 . Very high quality restaurant and expensive. If you are prepared for that then it was absolutely incredible and we will be back for sure.
