Steakhouse No. 316R

Reservations are a must as this is one of the hottest tables in town. Owner’s Craig and Samantha Cordts-Pearce know a thing or two about the restaurant business. They own four of the top restaurants in Aspen including The Wild Fig, Brexi, and CP Burger. The steaks are delicious with the homemade Chimichurri sauce and the branding iron onion rings are worth every calorie. http://steakhouse316.com/ .

Cache Cache

Cache Cache is an Aspen favorite for many years, whether sitting at the bar or in the intimate dining room, you are sure to have a meal to remember. Co-owners Jodi Larner and Chef Chris Lanter have brought a taste of Paris to Aspen. www.cachecache.com. Check out the menu at http://cachecache.com/dinner/

Matsuhisa

Matsuhisa Aspen is heaven on earth. The charismatic Nobu and the charming Nobuko Kang created what has become an Aspen institution. True Aspen locals never look at the menu, they order treats like “New Style Salmon” and “Yellowtail Jalepeno” by rote. Reservations are a must  http://matsuhisaaspen.com/


Casa Tua Aspen

Casa Tua

Many know Casa Tua from Miami, but Casa Tua Aspen is an entirely unique experience. It is both a restaurant and a night club. Owner Micky Grendene spends as much time as possible in Aspen to keep everything running smoothly and to perfect his top ski racing skills. The Casa Tua Ski Team is a force to be reckoned with.  Try the Casa Tua Ravioli with Burrata, it is a trip to Italy in every bite, especially when followed by the filet with foie gras. www.casatualifestyle.com
