   The food was amazing. We had a great wine recommendation from the sommelier. We loved our table by the window looking out on Vail mountain and the atmosphere. The let down was the pacing of the courses. It took more than 45 minutes between bread and salad courses. Not acceptable timing and they didn’t seem to acknowledge the kitchen pacing issue.

   I hosted two dinners at Tavernetta and the service and support we received from the restaurant was incredible! I had guests arriving at different times so we made two reservations and the restaurant worked with us to get everyone fed. The food was amazing very well presented and it tasted wonderful. Make sure you have the burata! Thank you Tavernetta Vail!

   Exceptional experience from start to finish. Wonderful selection of northern-Italian inspired dishes with carefully curated flavors. We had the olives and almonds to nibble on, followed by a mixed salad - plenty big enough to share. The buttermilk chive dressing was incredible. For mains we chose the Malfaldine with short rib and the Linguine with lobster. Both were perfectly portioned and bursting with flavor. Service was five stars; warm and engaging from everyone we encountered. Great value for a luxury experience in Vail. We will be back!

   We were anxious to try Tavernetta's Apres'-Tivo. Let me say, we had a wonderful experience! The spritz menu had too many fun choices to try in one sitting. We also ordered one Spirit-Free beverage. I don't recall the name, but they had a few thoughtful choices. I really love the trend of restaurants extending their bar program to include interesting Spirit Free drinks rather than just Coke, Sprite and iced tea. We enjoyed all that we tried. There were 5 of us and we ordered 2 orders of focaccia bread, 1 Robiola E Fruta, 1 Coppa, 1 Piatti Di Cicchetti, 1 Arancini, 1 Casio E Pepe and 1 Burratta. It was exactly the right amount of food. We didn't end up eating dinner that evening. The Burratta is made in Italy specifically for them and came atop a delicious sun-dried tomato, marcona almond pesto. Delectable! The Casio E Pepe had pasta that was perfection and a rich sauce that had everyone saying ummmmm with each bite. Our fail here was ordering it after we ate the other items so we didn't have any focaccia bread left to mop up the sauce. We won't make that mistake twice! The real story of the night is one of kindness. One of our party has a severe allergy and asked some questions about cross contamination and what might be safe to eat. Our server discovered the arancini we'd ordered are fried in the same oil as the allergen. Without us asking the kitchen made a separate batch in fresh oil so our diner could enjoy some too. Amazing! That thoughtful gesture had 3 of us in tears. Our business has been earned for life! The staff were a very efficient team with everyone removing plates, filling water glasses and taking drink orders. Go! Enjoy Apres'-Tivo or dinner. Spread the word!

   Absolute fabulous experience! Every dish outstanding! From our starters of GF Focaccia, burrata and carpaccio to all our pasta dishes to the mac daddy Porterhouse! So flavorful! Tavernetta is a must do!

   Truly one of the best restaurants in Vail! Exceptional service, a great wine program and delicious food. The whole team is engaged, focused and attentive. Food was terrific! Risotto and Rigatoni were hits. Burrata wow! And beet salad was a tasty surprise. Don’t hesitate on the wine! Staff knows their stuff and it’s worth it!

   We had an amazing experience at Tavernetta Vail from start to finish! Right from check-in, the staff made us feel welcome. We grabbed drinks at the bar first and sat outside to enjoy the amazing views. Once we got to our table, our server Denni took such great care of us. Super friendly and knowledgeable, she gave awesome recommendations and made sure everything was just right and the food was delicious. Great food, fantastic drinks, and outstanding service. Can’t wait to go back!
