This restaurant was very disorganized. After we were seated, it took a while for a waiter to take care of us. It was almost an hour before we were even able to order our food. Then it took another hour for half of the table's soup and salad to come out. We waited another 30 minutes to get the other half of the soup and salad for the table. When our main dishes came out, it was cold.

The dinner was mediocre for the price. They serve breakfast, and it was excellent. At the dinner price point it needs to knock you over, and it didn’t come close.

Ordered Colorado sea bass for two. Entree came as a whole fish on a platter with head and tail intact. No way at the table to parse it out. Had to send back to the kitchen to be filleted. Incredibly poor and impractical presentation. Taste not all that great either.

We chose the Gessner Strakhouse because it was convenient considering we were staying at the Grand Hyatt in Vail. It was a wonderful surprise! Galo, our server was amazing. He made suggestions that were out of our meat and potatoes, comfort zone, but we tried them and they were delicious. He was very attentive to our needs. We sat outside overlooking the river to complement our delicious meal. It was memorable, for sure.

The steak was not as rare as it should have been. Totally medium rare. Certainly not the best New York I've had. Service was medium to slow. Crab tator tots were a fun combination. Definitely worth trying. The green beans were excellent. The restaurant seems to have a pretty good crew in the back of house. Challenged a bit on the front. I probably would not go again and spend that money. Bummer since I'm a Globalist with Hyatt...

The quality and taste of the food was excellent. Somewhat expensive but portions were quite large. Service was good, but as more tables were occupied, the level of attentiveness slowed.
