- BPBret PolvorosaMar 19, 20265.0Crazy spot - no food stamps accepted here. Lunch of a life time with my kid Gino, his roommate besty Serada from U of Oregon and her step mom, Macie. Bluebird day - memory of a lifetime. And the snow was juicy as heck.
- ECEllie CaswellMar 8, 20264.0The food took a very long time and wasnt great, but this is definitely more of a bar/hangout place than restaurant. I wouldn’t come back for the food but id come back for the vibes!
- FCFranca CullenJan 24, 20265.0Bon Vivant is a beautiful mountain restaurant in Telluride. When we went for lunch, the indoor area wasn’t open, but on a sunny day it’s honestly the best place on the mountain to go. The food is the best-cooked of any mountain restaurant I’ve tried — really well prepared, flavorful, and comforting. Plus, sitting in the sun feels amazing: it naturally warms you up, and they even provide sunglasses, sunscreen, and Bon Vivant hats so you’re protected from the sun. A fantastic spot for a sunny ski day.
- SCShelle “Cshelle” CancholaJan 14, 20204.0Expensive for a quick sit down and rest & replenish your energy with some great food & tasty beer. The food was fantastic and the service matched the vibe. The only thing missing was a fireplace! The views are amazing!
