Almresi Vail

Almresi was recommended by friends and we were absolutely delighted by everything! Food and service were exceptional, at a pretty reasonable price for Vail. Highly recommend the raclette, generous portions. And the decor and ambience were cute modern Tyrolia. We really felt like we had stepped into an Alpen lodge. Well done and will be back!

Our dining experience was average, everything from the food to the atmosphere. The one redeeming quality was the service which was great - attentive and friendly, albeit the vibe just feels unauthentic and overdone. The atmosphere feels very touristy and definitely family friendly (which is great!), but we were looking for a more intimate date night spot and this is not the place. We had a later dinner reservation and it was way too bright inside, the food was on the blander side, and even items such as the salad came presented beautifully - but was really just iceberg lettuce and nothing to write home about in terms of flavors. We had 2 different entrees, the pretzel and a salad all leaving something to be desired. The drinks were good though! Would not come back and would recommend trying other spots in Vail Village.

Unmissable taste of the Alps in Vail. I’m from Switzerland and this is the best and most authentic alpine restaurant I’ve tried in the US. The German draft beers are the best in Vail (if you’re into European beers) and the traditional Swiss/Austrian/German dishes are delicious. The first night we ordered the “Raclette Grill & Fondue” dish that lets you grill raclette cheese, sausages, beef, and much more. As a traditional raclette meal requires, cornichon pickles and small potatoes were correctly served alongside. We came back the next day and were just as gratified. The pretzel with cheese dip and the “Resi’s schnitzel” served with spätzle were equally authentic and tasty, though the “Alm Pasta Südtirol” was disappointingly bland. The service and ambiance were fantastic. The owner and our amazing server Hendrik were both German, the staff wear traditional Bavarian clothing, and the wooden interior feels like a cozy chalet. Make sure to finish your meal with digestif shots of the sweet schnapps.

Been coming to Almresi for years and this Swiss inspired restaurant never disappoints. Great schnitzel and even better fondue. Delicious wines and cocktails too. Can’t wait to come back.

Fantastic place in Vail to get genuine Austrian / German food. The sauerkraut is terrific. The food portions are very big so don't be afraid to order one cuz it will feed two of you. Make sure you get the pretzel to start

This was our second time eating here. This time was our 10 year anniversary. The food was absolutely delicious and we felt like we were back in Switzerland. It is nestled at the end of a shopping area surrounded by trees and water. The staff put the experience over the top and I would give 10 stars if possible! We didnt know they closed at 9; we were enjoying ourselves and the food so much. Never once did they make us feel that we needed to leave or hurry through our dinner. We overstayed by 50 minutes and not once did they elude to the overage of time. It was the perfect dinner from food to setting to great staff! Thank you for an amazing anniversary!

Einfach wunderbar!! From the ambience, service and food, absolutely awesome. My wife and I dined here for the 1st time yesterday and were highly impressed. All the servers and other staff were either German or Austrian, so it was very nice to be able to order and communicate in my native tongue, surely a great way to add authenticity. We sat outside overlooking the creek which was very romantic. My wife had the salmon and I had the pork, both great and the sides reminded me of Omi's cooking from back home (Berlin). The dessert choices are nice and ours was truly delicious! Followed that with adult coffee and 2 shots of schnapps! The 'Chef/ manager/ owner'is also extremely pleasant! Highly recommend if you're in Vail and looking for a nice Austrian/ German restaurant, you won't be disappointed. All photos taken onsite by myself.

The food was fine, but it was DIFFERENT, for sure. I did not like the melted cheese fondue. It was mixed with vine, and I don't drink, so the taste of alcohol was not something I was looking for. The mushroom soup was good, and the Pork Shank was good. In general, the food was Okay but not Wow. In Colorado, it is normal not to have food or customer service in general. I'm not sure what the buzz is all about it!
