From the creators of Sweet Basil in Vail Colorado comes a fresh, innovative new restaurant opening December 2012. Aptly named Mountain Standard, this rustic and relaxed tavern aims to set a new standard in the Vail valley by using an ancient form of cooking.The majority of Mountain Standard’s menu will be prepared via the most primal cooking method: over an open and live wood fire. The only restaurant in the valley to devote themselves to this age-old way of cooking, the food at this exciting new restaurant will have rustic, bold and honest flavors, focusing on the purest ingredients in the Rocky Mountain region and beyond.Service, like the cuisine, will have that perfect balance of providing a first class dining experience with a more casual vibe. There is no smoke and mirrors here - no fuss - just simple, honest, from the heart service and cooking. The beauty of the creek side location is mirrored by the high energy vibe of this dynamic restaurant.

While visiting Vail we came across this gem in Vail Village. Excellent menu, excellent service. Comfortable ambiance and lively bar. Nice craft cocktails and wine. The apps were great. We were a party of 7 and all of our entrees from Burgers to Salmon was excellent. I would highly recommend this place.

We really enjoyed the evening even though it started out difficult. We had one in our party in a wheelchair and noted that on the reservation, but they initially tried to seat us upstairs. They did find a place for us on the patio. Restrooms were downstairs and inaccessible.

The service and the food are both 10/10. I’d argue this is a perfect order for two.. 1. Tuna Tataki 2. Yellowtail Jalapeño 3. Miso Cod 4. Sushi Combination dinner x2 Also had the tuna crispy rice which was delicious. The miso eggplant is excellent and different enough from the miso cod that it’s worth ordering both. The rock shrimp tempura was yummy but I preferred the fresh dishes over this one. Great miso soup too!
