Title: A Culinary Delight at Cosmopolitan - A Hidden Gem at the Base of Telluride Ski Mountain
Rating:
Nestled at the base of Telluride Ski Mountain, Cosmopolitan, the signature restaurant of Hotel Columbia, proved to be a culinary gem during our business planning trip. From start to finish, our dining experience at this establishment was nothing short of exceptional.
The $19 bar steak entrée, available all evening at the bar, was well worth the wait. Cooked to perfection, the steak was a delight for the taste buds. The standout, however, was the Brussels sprouts and mushroom combo that accompanied the steak-- an outstanding combination of flavors that elevated the dish to new heights.
The Lobster Corn Dog was a unique and memorable dish. The lobster and shrimp sausage, coated in cornmeal tempura, served with remoulade, was a culinary masterpiece. So delightful was this creation that I couldn't resist ordering some to go, ensuring I could savor the flavors once more.
The Crispy Shrimp & Calamari, with crispy lemons, limes, and a sweet & spicy sauce, were everything their description promised and more. Each bite was a burst of flavors, leaving us with the perfect combination of crispy textures and tasty goodness.
To round off our evening, a couple of Classic Cosmos and a Black Manhattan proved to be a perfect ending. The expertly crafted cocktails complemented the meal beautifully, adding an extra layer of sophistication to an already exquisite dining experience.
The ambiance at Cosmopolitan was inviting, and the attentive service only enhanced our overall enjoyment. The stunning location at the base of Telluride Ski Mountain, coupled with the culinary expertise showcased in each dish, makes Cosmopolitan a must-visit for anyone seeking a memorable dining experience in Telluride.
Our evening at Cosmopolitan reached new heights, thanks to the exceptional hospitality provided by G, the star behind the bar. Seated in the heart of the action, G's politeness and insightful service transformed our dining experience into something truly extraordinary.
G's attention to detail and warm demeanor were evident from the moment we took our seats. She navigated the menu with finesse, offering valuable insights and recommendations that guided us through a delightful culinary journey.
Cheers to Cosmopolitan for an unforgettable dining experience!
