Minturn Country Club

My family had a great time cooking our own steaks. TJ is always wonderful entertaining and has the best magic. The atmosphere is very Colorado. We come here every year we come out skiing.

Minturn Country Club is a hidden gem! The unique concept of starting with a salad bar, hand-picking your steak, and cooking it yourself is a fun twist on the traditional dining experience. It's a great spot for families - kids can get involved in cooking their own steaks, and it's a nice change of pace. However, be warned: if you're not confident in your grilling skills, you might want to stick with more traditional dining options. Our experience was enjoyable, and the staff was friendly. Worth a try if you're looking for something different!

Came here in the 80s as a kid with my family on ski vacations and again as an adult. It hasn't changed! (That's both a positive and negative). Great meats, basic country club salad bar, good appetizers and wine. Cook your own steak/seafood seems to dated but makes it fun! You can cook it healthier than a restaurant and will give your group plenty of interaction and fun chatting. Love this place

A cook your own steak place. Good choice of steaks and seafood. My wife had salmon and I had NY. Sides and salads were plentiful and tasty. It is a small place and does get crowded around the grills as. You cook but good place to strike up a conversation.

I really enjoy the experience of making my own steak at Minturn Country Club. We love going there every time we're in town. I recommend adding some truffle butter to the steak – it’s fantastic! The salad bar is excellent, and the atmosphere is great for kids. A def 8/10✨🥩🥗

Absolutely incredible experience! The steak was tender, juicy, and full of flavor. Nice experience with kids that you can cooked your on steak.The service was attentive and friendly, and the atmosphere was cozy Highly recommend for anyone who loves quality meat and a great dining experience! Great for families and big groups.

Cute place for a casual dinner après-ski. It’s a cook your own meal kind of place so it’s fun for younger kids. Salad bar is unlimited and we loved the grilled bread. Has a lovely char from the grill. If you don’t know what to pick as a side, highly recommend the double baked potato.

This is a grill your own steak place. Although they have other offerings. The steak includes a salad bar with other sides available at extra cost. Not to be missed is the Minturn Tater. It is an ice cream confection. Ask you wait person for details.

Sure, it's a bit pricey and you have to cook your own, but that's what makes it fun! The prime New York strip was great. Grilling garlic bread was very fun. Could you do it at home, for cheaper? Yes, no doubt. But it was a very fun evening out!

What a fun night! We took a Lyft for easy drop off and pick off. The inside is very old school and overall could use a spruce up but plenty of space and overall fairly clean. The staff were friendly and helpful. They explained the process and helped along the way. It's fun to grill your own steaks and chat around the grill. The salad bar is pretty basic but fresh. The twice baked potato, onion rings and fries were all nicely done.

This place is pretty cool. You order your meat/fish and then grill it yourself. We got the mushroom appetizer which was pretty good and then got a prime steak and lemon chicken. Both were excellent. It's a little strange grilling your own food inside the restaurant, but it ended up being a lot of fun. Seems like this would be a really fun place for young families with kids as well. We sat at the bar and our bartender was also a magician. He was amazing. He had some really cool tricks that really enhanced the experience. Highly recommend sitting at the bar. Awesome steaks + magician bartender + small Colorado mountain town = very unique experience. Definitely will be back here.

Very fun family tradition. My 12 year olds had a blast learning how to grill their first steak with their Dad. Everyone seems to order the signature twice baked potato but it only tasted of sour cream. I would try the truffle fries instead next time. The restaurant is crowded and fun and friendly, it is well worth the short drive from Vail and there is ample street parking.

A must visit. Fantastic old-school steakhouse, great service l, strong drinks, good vibe and excellent steaks. My family went skiing and stayed at Beavercreek. Thank goodness we found this place, what a treat. It is close to Beavercreek but worlds away from the overpriced food at a ski resort. The experience cooking their own steak will probably be the most memorable from our entire trip.

Service was sketchy, meat was choice at best. Been there a few times in the past and remember it being a lot better.

3.5 stars. The Minturn Country Club is a novelty. Cook your own steak?... why not? It was fun. Every spice you can imagine with a good teriyaki glaze to add to the steak. We were given a suggestion of how long to cook the steak which I'm glad we shortened or it would have been well done. Salad bar?...Yes... iceberg lettuce but a variety of toppings. White bread from a sandwich loaf. Onion rings greasy, twice stuffed potato ok. But the steaks. The rib eye was tasty and tender but the NY was more gristle than meat. The magician wasn't there that night, unfortunately. A bit of entertainment is what we needed. I probably won't go back again..... once was enough.

Way over priced for what you get. The cuts of meat were decent but charging to cook it yourself on a lukewarm grill is not what I'm looking for. I can get a better experience from both meat selection and grill experience by staying home. Beer selection was severely lacking as well. However the staff was courteous and friendly

Delicious meat - with the added experience of grilling indoors. It turned out quite good, and kept us captivated while we waited, so we weren't wondering where our food was. We really liked the stuffed mushroom appetizer and the crab cakes. They have one dessert - it is cookies & cream ice cream with whip cream & hot fudge in the middle. All rolled in cinnamon & shaped like a giant potato. It was good, but you really need at least 3 or more people to eat it.

We were the first to arrive for dinner. Our waitress seemed either new or uninterested. The salad bar lacked options and had the traditional toppings, which were Ok. The single chicken breast I ordered was $20, which is ridiculous even considering the location. Our sides came out burnt and tough. The ambiance was lackluster for a small town restaurant. I would recommend trying somewhere else.

This place is as cool as it comes. Cooking your steak over the grill is fun and the selection is pretty great. The sides are awesome and the salad bar is good. The service is perfect and the vibe in the restaurant is cool. If you have a family or just want to chill at the bar, this place is perfect.

Poor quality food. Poor quality service. Depressing vibes. On top of that, why spend $45 for a steak that takes 20-25 min for you to cook yourself. If I cook myself it should be a lot cheaper. Probably a fun place with little kids, for a one time thing though.

Cooked it myself it was great. Cook some Texas toast on the grill slathered with butter it's great.

This is the coolest little restaurant. The people are the nicest people you will ever meet. The bartender is surprisingly the best magician you will ever meet. Such a fun evening.

I've never been to a restaurant where you cook your own steak. We had a blast at the Minturn Country Club. The service was outstanding. Our waitress Alex was so attentive and explained the process to us thoroughly. We ordered wine and some stuffed mushrooms to start. Then we headed to the salad bar. When we finished our appetizers and salads we all went together to the butcher station and picked out our meat selection and ordered our sides. We were told how long we should cook our meat. I chose a filet and baked potato. It was so fun. We sipped wine as we sat around the grill and chit chatted. One of our friends in the group is turning 60 this month so we celebrated his birthday with a Minturn Tator. At the end of the night, the magician came to our table and wowed us with card tricks. Honestly, we stumbled upon this restaurant and it's one of our favorite dining experiences from our Vail vacation. I highly recommend the Minturn Country Club.

It's amazing to me how some people just don't get the Minturn Country Club and why it's a priceless jewel for so many seasonal travelers and locals alike! If you are a friendly person you will be treated kindly and receive phenomenal service and a complimentary magic show! This place is great for all ages and is always willing to accommodate large families! I've heard people complaining about the pricing of the Wine and Meats! Really?!?! It's a restaurant in ski town America where affluent people vacation. How else are they supposed to be successful in such a competitive industry? Its really all about the experience of being with your friends and family and all cooking simultaneously! It's guaranteed for all laughs and smiles (if you're into that type of thing) You know having fun and working some meats on the grill (shrimp and fish are also a great option) This place is not for the crabby people who need to be pampered! It's not like you have to do your own dishes! Just let your hair down and have fun! You can tell from the reviews People either get this spot or they don't! I'll let you decide which of the two you would like to hang out with!

Overpriced average food. Meat is fine but pricey. Side dishes are below average. Concept is good but not the execution. Very disappointing. Thai place around the corner is the place to go

All I can say is WOW WOW WOW!!!!! I think I had one of the best dining experiences ever. Let me take a few steps back and say I love a good steak house but this was next level. The must have Appetizers are the stuffed mushrooms and crab cakes! The mushrooms were stuffed with cheese and had an amazing breadcrumb too. The double baked potato was amazing and the rib eye was to dye for!! The cooking experience was something I'll remember forever. And the owner TJ made the night unforgettable... with a couple of INSANE magic tricks, Including sticking a card to the ceiling with our names on it. Thank you to Spencer and TJ for making my birthday week so special and something I'll remember forever.

Such a surprise. I didn't know that I would grill my entree but it was so good. The entire experience was fun and filled with culinary surprises. I highly recommend this one!!

You cook your own food. It's a novelty, but there is no value added. Go to a good butcher and cook at home before going here. The atmosphere and quality of the uncooked food isn't worth it.

This place is the absolute best. I've been going to this establishment since I was a young girl with my family. Many special memories that I hold on dearly too from this restaurant!!! Be sure to try the Minturn tator. You'll inhale it so fast you won't even have the chance to taste it!

I have to say I have a really hard time eating at places that are not sanitary. This place is not sanitary. It is filthy. I watched someone stick their hands into a topping at the salad bar and just eat it. Then when we were grilling our steaks on a dirty grill I watched someone grab the butter spreader from the salad bar, put it on their raw meat and dip it back into the butter at the salad bar. Everyone at our table was thoroughly sickened by it. It's actually a pretty pricey meal considering you cook it yourself. There were also disgusting open vats of teriyaki sauce and I'm not sure what was floating in it but people just touched everything and who knows if their hands were even clean. Then there was the utensil holder that had dirty utensils in it that you pick up your meat with. If this place ever had a health inspection, it could never pass in my opinion and I don't think I could ever go back there. It was everything I could do to just finish my meal.

I've been coming to this place for years with my family and it never disappoints. The selection of meats and sides is superb. Not to mention TJ provides the best bartending / magicking entertainment

Cool your own steak, and I must be a good cook the steak was amazing. Know this the sides are big and can feed up to three people. Also recommend if you have more than one person order one steak one shrimp and one chicken then share. I will be back

We had an awesome cook-your-own-dinner experience. -Rustic mountain lodge/tavern feel. -Friendly and helpful staff. -Good bartenders poor stiff drinks. -You pick your meat/fish to cook for yourself. They are very nice in helping you decide and then giving you cooking/seasoning tips. -Dinner comes with their extensive salad bar. There's also thick cuts of bread and fresh butter so you can grill up your own Texas toast.

Went out dinner with friends. The place is tiny with all steak i had to cook and make the salad all myself , i can do at home why do i have to go here? Its overprice and very poor services in town :( Parking is hard to find...

We visited this restaurant because two different people, One a local and the other from Texas, recommended it. Here you cook your own steak, make your own salad from the salad bar, and order any sides you want from the menu. I will say the steak was good, although I didn't think the cook-it-yourself process was entirely sanitary. it was a different experience, and the food was pretty good. I just don't think it is my kind of restaurant.

Stopped in here twice. Once in the fall (off season - it was super dead), and once a few weeks ago. Interesting restaurant concept where you can grill your own meat if you would like. Upon entering the restaurant, there is a "Butcher Shop" in the corner where you pick out the meat you would like to grill. Everything looks really good...meats ranged from chicken, strip steak, rib eyes, bacon wrapped filets, etc. I can't comment on the grilling process or experience because the four of us just stopped in for cocktails, shuffle board, and of course see the owner's magic tricks. The owner is a super nice attentive guy, as well as an extremely talented magician. It's pretty funny, this is not the type of place you would expect to go in and then see some a super awesome magic show from the guy behind the bar. When we arrived it was pretty busy, he could tell we were interested in seeing some magic tricks. After a few games of shuffle board, the bar dispersed quite a bit and he came right over to us and performed several magic tricks. It was really cool, and we appreciated how much time he took to perform his tricks. Incredibly entertaining, memorable, we loved it. The only reason I am giving this place 4 and not 5 stars is because the shuffle board costs $4 to play and it's on a timer. Not too much fun when you are playing an intense tie game and then metal posts shoot up in the center of the board to end the game.

A valley Classic! Always enjoy spending the evening bonding/having a few cocktails with friends as we cook our steaks on the large cooktop. I enjoyed the aged New York on this visit and it was amazing. Always finish off your meal with an amazing Minturn Tator!

Love, love, love, love! Can I say it one more time? Staying in Vail for a birthday weekend, and wanted to get away for one meal that wouldn't require taking out a mortgage. This place was perfect! Delicious food, wonderful service, and the small mountain town I remember from growing up around here. The meat is cheap, but high quality. I loved that I got to cook my own in over a well-kept grill with others. Time to mingle and meet people, while getting the steak I want. The staff are more than willing to help, if asked.

We have been going to the county club for years and years but this was the first time we had atrocious service and it hampered our enjoyment. Presumably due to Covid, there was not the usual selection from the butchers counter. We were a party of 4 and ordered 3 sides, tuna, a ribeye, and 2 bacon wrapped filet mignons. Our salads were brought to us but portions were meager, a far cry from the unlimited salad bar that is available during non-COVID times. The waitress/server did not tell us about wearing gloves or where the gloves were so that we wouldn't handle the marinade brush and we didn't stumble upon them until 1/4 way through cooking. Unlike the last time we were there about a month ago, there was no hand sanitizer available. When we returned with our dinners, the table had not been cleared of our salad plates and appetizers and we had to stand around waiting for this to be done before we could eat. Service throughout was delayed and inattentive despite the restaurant have very few patrons. When our entrees and sides were finished we again waited to place our order for the famous tater (ice cream) dessert but the server brought our check instead. When she finally understood we wished to have dessert, we were informed that there was only one tater left and that we'd have to share- not great during COVID time... the server again failed to clear our table before bringing the dessert, dropped it off but without extra spoons and plates so we could divide the one treat, and, we had to bus our dishes to another table in order to enjoy the dessert. We assume our server was new and not fully trained as every other experience we've had at MCC has been consistently good.

Very expensive for a small selection of steaks and you do all the work. No I mean that you cook your own steak and I had to bus our own salad plates. Apparently the waitress was too busy ( but we were the only people there) , 35 dollar steak not including any sides. Average salad bar with iceberg lettuce fake bacon bits ; very mediocre . No wonder the place was empty.

Spent the summer in the Vail area and went to a lot of places to eat. Unfortunately, this was one of the worst experiences we had. I'd been fishing with a guide from the Minturn Anglers down the street and stopped by for dinner. Service was terrible and the food not much better. It s a "cook your own steak" thing. I can cook steak but I also know how to pick them. There was not much quality meat to choose from. And the price, well, I'd just assume go back to the store, pick a better cut and cook it at home. Could do that for much less than what I paid here. There was better offerings just across the street at the bbq place - see my other review - where the crowd and food was much better. I was there one day when the owner of the Country Club in and yelled at the bbq places owner about people parking at his place. The bbq owner laughed after he left that the animosity was because Country Clubs business is failing. I think this is a bit of a tourist trap and not worth your time.

"Welcome to Minturn Country Club. Please walk to the counter and order at the Meat Market. You can pick your meat and sides, and then start cooking." Wait. What??? Yes, for $40 (price of a nice filet, I opted for the $19 NY strip) you too can cook your own dinner at this cozy, mountain restaurant. I mean, cooking my own steak is pretty sweet and all, but for forty bucks I expect a skilled chef to juggle razor-sharp knives and slave over my entree for at least 20 minutes. Not at Minturn Country Club, no sir. You gotta EARN that steak, son! Okay, gripes about cooking my own dinner aside, this place was pretty cool. The food was good and the atmosphere "good ole mountain town." The creamed spinach and potatoes were great with the steak and wine. I'll be back, but next time with tempered expectations!

This is the best restaurant in America. I will argue with anyone that doesn't agree, this is the idea of all things America.

This was an extremely disappointing experience. We were previously told by family to give this place a try. A group of 5 friends, and I were very excited to grill our own steaks, and have a unique experience here in Colorado. What we were greeted with was nothing other than frustration and dissatisfaction To begin, when we walked in, we were not greeted kindly. After being seated and waiting a little while, our waiter came with water, and then just took off....no menu, no information, nothing. We asked about it, and he said he couldn't give us a menu, but could not explain anything either....so we were clueless as to what to do, or what our options were in regards to drinks, appetizers, etc. AND THEN HE DISAPPEARED AGAIN. Finally, we were taken to the area where we were able to grill our steaks. There was no guidance, no instructions. We attempted to figure it out for ourselves, and ended up with a few raw steaks despite following the only posted instructions on the wall. There was no one there to assist, or answer any questions on how to avoid that issue. The food was decent once we finally cooked/received it all. (Some sides arrived after we were finished eating our entree because our waiter never returned for us to let him know we never received it.) Some of our fries had to be sent back also because they were cold. To top it all off, for the lack of service, and for the mediocre food and experience, our bill was more expensive than prior places we had tried that were 10x better all around. All in all, the concept of cooking your own steak with your family/friends is great. The potential for it to be a memorable tourist destination is there. However, the way this place executes it all makes it nothing short of a disappointing experience. We will not be returning.

I am giving them a 1 star because it is a Ripoff if you drink wine. They lure you with a cheap steak deal, free salad bar, but hang on! DO NOT ORDER A GLASS OF WINE!! This is where they make their $. $12.50 for a glass of house wine. 2 glasses of wine almost equalled of dinner cost and ,trust me, this place does not have the atmosphere or ambiance to charge that much for a glass of wine. Since we enjoy a glass with our dinner, there are so many restaurants much better for less. We will never return.

Highly recommend this place. The steaks are great and we had a blast grilling everything ourselves. Service was great as well. Loved the magician/ bar tender.

SIx of us came to this highly recommended restaurant and here is our impression.....in summary, overpriced and a poor value. Waitstaff was ok, but $35-$40 for a steak you have to cook yourself over a warm (not hot) grill is a little much. Sides seemed like they came from the frozen food section of a 7-11. Not good; one of our friends in our party of six couldn't eat the twice baked potato because it was so bad. Ordered 2 Old Fashioned drinks and both were the weakest we've ever experienced-quite watered down and just awful. When I read the 5 star reviews I swear they must have been from another restaurant. I don't mind paying for a quality dining experience, but $500 (including gratuity) for this experience was the biggest waste of money I've seen in a long time. Again, seems incredulous to see 5 star revues here.

This is the BEST STEAK HOUSE EVER!!! The wait when we got there was supposed to be 45 minutes, but luckily it was only 20!! Their service is spectacular, and they help everyone by giving suggestions such as how long to cook their choice of food, what they suggest to eat, and the most popular items. I would recommend all of the food there! The grilling will take some patience, because you DON'T want to undercook your meal just because you don't want to stand by the grill any longer. They have quite amazing magic tricks to entertain you! This place is family friendly, but don't have your kids get burnt by the grill! There is an all you can eat salad bar with many toppings to choose from. There are so many sides on the menu! All of the servers there will serve you your sides specifically when you are done grilling your entree. All of the meats are very flavorful, and juicy. I recommend this place to everyone if you love your meats!!! P.S. all of those hater Yelper's out there are just impatient and probably hard to please. My family LOVED this place and would beg us to go back!!

We went to this place on a $2.99 special night. There were 4 of us. We put our name on the list and waited over an hour, when we were told it would be 20 min. It seemed like people were coming and going but we were not being set. We kept asking where we were on the list and the owner (I think) kept on saying we were coming up soon. After a while we got to see the list. Everybody above us and everybody below us had been crossed off. They had been skipping us because we were not locals and we did not know the servers or hosts. They had been setting all their friends before us. Once we finally got seated. The one small grill they had to grill your steak was crowded. The sides we ordered were burnt and over priced. I would never go back to this place!!!!!

Everything about Minturn CC is 5 star. Food, Service, Price and even a target in the water closet, incase you spend too much time with TJ at the bar.

What a rip-off. I had the "Prime" NY Strip Steak which was $39. First of all it was not USDA Prime. It had a lot of gristle and was incredibly chewy and I had to cook it myself. Matter of fact I bent my fork cutting into it and had to literally saw through the steak which was cooked rare. It was like a playground. There were about six kids running around, yelling and jumping up and on the tables. Then, how do you tip? I cooked the steak and got my salad. The waiter just brought me a single glass of ice tea. I had to ask for the check.

This not a Country Club at all. There is no elite membership. There is no tennis. There is no pool. There is no golf. There is no dress code. There is no gift shop. It IS pricey, but hey, who comes to a place called "Country Club" expecting "inexpensive"? Please, don't be that moron. Plain and simple, this is a meat PALACE where the entertainment and the appeal is YOU cooking your enormous meat at a grill surrounded by friends and family. Sure, you could be doing this at home, but you are probably on vacation in Beaver Creek or Vail, so you are far, far away from your own grill. Besides, how many times have you let friends and family cook on YOUR grill. (We all know that you have "one hottt grill".) So, to recap, it IS pricey AND you cook it yourself. Get over it. Who comes to a place where everyone KNOWS you cook it yourself and then complains that they have to cook it themselves? Please, don't be that moron. I dined at the Minturn Country Club. Ten of us, 5 adults and 5 kiddos - two 5-year olds and three 10-year olds. Potential train wreck. One five- year old spilled a large trough of ketchup on the floor and then crawled through it. One ten-year old took a picture of said five-year old, wouldn't show it to her, removed the memory card, acted younger than the youngest child, threw a temper tantrum... Our waiter, Evan, was there with a stack of napkins, fresh beverages, a fork to replace the one dropped into the ketchup on the floor... He was graceful and made sure every age was satisfied by the end of the meal. I saw a lot of families here, cooking together, laughing together, and doing what families do together. I saw an engaging bartender entertain 5 hungry children with his sleight of hand as we were waiting for our drinks to arrive. Magical. You come here for the entertainment of watching family and friends cook large slabs of great meat themselves... family style sides, family style atmosphere. The only one you have to blame for a bad steak is yourself. You want it Medium Rare? Eight minutes a side. You cook it. You want a $120 bottle of red wine at the fine wine price of $60 (sounds like "turducken") that you can sip on during the entire cooking-eating-observing-ketchup-temper tantrum time? You drink it. Skip the salad. It is included with the entree and all-you-can-eat but I took one glance and kept walking. Uninspired light green lettuce not befitting the history of Minturn (in the 1920s Minturn was known as the "lettuce capital of the United States"), bacon bits, chickpeas (as opposed to those fashionable "chic" peas), cottage cheese... YaaaaAAWN! If you are wanting leftovers, eat all you can. A romantic date spot this is not. I questioned the good judgement of a young couple sitting at the table next to us. Somewhere between our table's squeals of magical delight, the ketchup bath, the temper tantrum... I am imagining either a discussion about birth control or a choosing of the first baby's name, depending on current level of commitment. THEN I SAW IT. The dessert that they had chosen had ALL 20 of our eyes on it... it was as large as a baby's head! This was by far the best dessert that I never had. NEVER. "The Minturn Tater" named after a large spud, but could have been named "The Minturn Baby Head" ... cookies and cream rolled in cocoa powder, smothered in whipped cream, chocolate sauce, and sprinkled with toasted almonds. They ate the whole thing. Minturn boomed in the late 1800s because of the Railroad and also the mining prospects long, LOOOONG before Vail and Beaver Creek were a glimmer in any developer's eye. Today, Minturn is a small town of about 1,000 people that is firmly ensconced in tourism. Six Important Facts: 1. Beaver Creek to Minturn is about 15 minutes and Vail to Minturn is about 10 minutes. 2. Kid friendly, group friendly, family friendly. 3. Full Bar. Bartender is magical. #3 follows #2 for a reason. 4. Arrive between 5:00-6:20 if you do not want to wait for a table. 5. Top 5 meats include a 12 oz Kobe Filet ($44.95), 16 oz USDA Prime ($38.95), a 16 oz USDA NY strip, 22 oz Porterhouse T-bone ($35.95) and a very Large Filet Mignon ($38.95) but you can also get slow cooked baby back ribs that THEY cook ($21.95), Lemon Chicken Breast ($11.95)... 6. Best sides include Side Sweet Potato Fries ($3.50), Onion Rings ($3.75), and Twice Baked Potato ($3.75). MY COMPLIMENTS TO THE CHEF.

I hadn't been to a "cook your steak yourself" place since I was a kid and when my sister suggested it I was hesitant but do yourself a favor, put that hesitation out of your mind and go have fun in this place. It is a blast. You are probably in the area for winter or summer activities around the ski areas but are tired of the restaurant scenes so go see a real 1800's Colorado town of 1,000 people that is only one exit away from Vail and Beaver Creek off 70. For appetizers you have to try their stuffed mushroom caps that arrive to your table in a baking dish where the mushrooms are filled with parmesan stuffing and baked in a creamy chicken based sauce. Very rich and very tasty. Another must-have is the newly added breaded zucchini appetizer, it was crispy with a light crumb breading served piping hot with a chilled sauce, delicious. For dinner take the ticket your waiter gave you and go up to the butcher counter and pick a prime bone in ribeye or filet, a prime NY strip or for less costly and lighter meals get the marinated chicken breast, skewer of shrimp or kabob of steak and veggies or one of several fish they have daily. They give you cooking time instructions on a large board on the wall near each of their two grills. A home made teriyaki sauce is available on the grills. You can see that the hot parts of the grill are in the center so you can back the temp off by pulling things to the edges. The Country Club has a full bar and very reasonably priced wine list along with any kid friendly beverage you would need. Locals tips - 1) Get the salad bar not because you want a salad but so you can take the pineapple, mushrooms and onions from the bar and grill them along with your meal. 2) In the off season they offer a $2.99 steak (not going to be one of these great prime ones) in order to keep the crowds coming in and I am told that the grills are 2 people deep during those times. All in all the Minturn Country Club is the opposite of a country club, its fun not stuffy, it can be a good value if you want it to be and it can be hilarious to watch friends and loved ones take control of the grilling.

Such a fun restaurant. A concierge recommended it to my parents 22 years ago and we have gone every vacation since! Such a fun experience, especially when you have a few drinks. The food is awesome. This time I went for the small NY strip which was great, some salad, spinach, asparagus, and a double bakes potato. The Texas toast definitely is the icing on the cake. This place is fun, family friendly, well priced and delicious.

$22.00 for a steak you have to cook yourself?! Hmmmm, not so sure about that. Steaks were ok, some were looking a little grey around the edges...Service was fair, not very inspired. A bit overpriced for what you get.

I try to stop in and cook my own steak but this restaruant is usually closed when I'm passing through. I had the opportunity to treat some friends for dinner here but we arrived on $2.99 night. Wholly nutsacks, the place was packed and most of the regular menu items were not available. The meat selection was pretty poor and the grill was overloaded with people (mostly kids) who have never cooked their own steak. I won't return on $2.99 night - it sucked.

This place came with high reviews from friends and family...we were very underwhelmed. We were greeted by an exuberant manager when we entered but things went downhill quickly. We were stuck in the back of the restaurant and had to flag down our waiter several times. Our waiter seemed to be annoyed that we were dining with two children, ages 10 and 7. We didn't understand how this place worked or what to do after we ordered our drinks! It turns out we weren't properly informed. The salad bar was great and grilling our own steaks was a lot of fun. We got back to our table with our steaks and once again had to flag down service staff to inquire about our side items and ask for more drinks. Our side items arrived after most of us were nearly done with our steaks. The side items tasted good but were obviously supposed to come out 5 minutes before our waiter brought them, they were cold. We were going to order desserts but decided to spend our money elsewhere. When we got the bill we were surprised to find out that they charge for refills. I'm more than happy to spend $150 in your restaurant but felt gouged by having to pay for 6 sodas to the tune of roughly $18. Our server did not tell us that they charge for refills and when I inquired he said that "the bartender makes us". We waited up front upon exiting looking for someone to talk to but never saw a manager other than our initial entrance. It could have been that they were just having an off night. This place has a lot of potential... we'll never be back to find out. Dine elsewhere!
