"Housed in a century-plus-old miner’s cabin with a magical backyard, this self-styled purveyor of “Colorado comfort cuisine” combines quaint cottage vibes with homegrown recipes for, say, trout in citrus compound butter with quinoa, apple, and sunflower seeds; bison sausage with shakshuka and whipped potatoes; and short rib with Southwestern veggie hash. For dessert, tableside s’mores are the next best thing to camping in the Rockies." - Rebecca Treon, Josie Sexton, Ruth Tobias, Nisa Sedaghat
