New American restaurant · Eagle-Vail

"Opened in 1977, Sweet Basil is a fine dining institution that’s endured Vail’s evolution for a reason. Lunch and dinner focus on refined regional ingredients; first bites might include a winter mushroom salad and rabbit steamed bun, while larger plates might feature juniper-rubbed venison loin, wagyu from Snake River Farms, and Iberian duroc pork chop with honey bourbon glaze. Reservations are required for evenings and are often booked out a month in advance, but you can always try to score a seat at the bar, which is first-come, first-serve." - Katie Shapiro
