Alpinist & the Goat

Had a lovely time here with my friends. It is an intimate setting but I liked the smaller feel. Gabriel was fun and super helpful / even gave us a proper wine service tutorial. Fondue was really good and we left full and happy.

So the food was delicious, but it's probably overpriced. Our dinner for three was over $200, and we didn't get anything special. Having said that fondue is typically expensive and the meal was delicious.

Definitely do not recommend. When we arrived we were one of like 3 people eating there and the service was still super slow. The food was about $25 per person for just cheeses, bread and apples. We ended up not wanting to spend over $100 dollars for a meal so we decided to just get the dessert fondue which was still way overpriced. When the dessert arrived we got grocery store pastry’s, and cold cups of chocolate and caramel. The dessert also came with wrapped short breads. Then the dessert also had 4 scoops of rum ice cream with raisins inside, not good tasting at all. The food was awful and probably only costs like $10 combined and we paid $36. If you cancel your reservation they charge you $24. Also, the waiter mocked us for not wanting to spend a ridiculous amount of money on the bad quality food. The atmosphere of the restaurant was also terrible. We were seated at a tiny table and the tables around us were dirty and some had rags and cleaning supplies just sitting on them. The music was very loud and obnoxious as well.

The service is absolutely terrible. Our party and a couple of others was left waiting without acknowledgement to be seated. When we were finally acknowledged there was no “thank you for waiting or sorry for the wait”. After getting sick of waiting (yes we had a reservation), we eventually walked out. In comparison to literally every other dining option in Telluride this place is terrible.

The service was very very very slow. It was my 3 year olds birthday and she waited almost 2 hours to have a piece of bread. My twins were miserable waiting for there drinks and whining for food. I can’t blame them it was absolutely ridiculous for children to wait 2 hours for food.
