    Fabulous experience. Our first at Juniper, and certainly will not be our last. The quality of food and presentation was excellent. The grilled octopus is superb - beautiful preparation with cauliflower, a bit of chorizo, roasted pepper and gnocchi. Unforgettable. The halibut was terrific. But best of all - our server Dave. Knowledgable, helpful, uber-efficient. His timing was impeccable. Really looking forward to return visit.

    I’m a local and been coming to this restaurant for over 10 years Always been great. Tonight was an absolute disappointment and a total embarrassment. I had invited 3 friends for a 6:30pm reservation. We were assigned a table in an area where they had just seated a group of 30. Only one server for that section. We were able to get our drinks with difficulty and our food came at 8:30pm. If you know you have a big group coming and only one waiter, DO NOT take extra reservations and fill the space. It only results in an EXTREMELY bad experience for the customers.

    This was my third time dining at Juniper. We always plan our last dinner of our ski week at Juniper - it’s a lovely restaurant to celebrate the end of our week. Great food and service - pricey but worth it!!!!

    Excellent food, meticulous service. Trout was perfect texture and delicious, veal was superb and best creme brûlée in the Valley. Loved the cocktails. Everyone should try the Last Word cocktail…it’s perfect!

    Amazing experience! The food was phenomenal! Everything from the spicy cucumber, margarita, which had the cucumber, melon sherbet, inside of it, to the tuna, pokey tower, to the grilled octopus and chorizo, to the incredible veal, an angel hair pasta, which was so delicious! Will definitely be dining there again!

    This was one of the most enjoyable meals I’ve had lately. Food was outstanding, drinks good. Not cheap but worth it. It is a loud, bustling restaurant so if you are looking for more subdued, this might not be for you. But the 3 of us really enjoyed our dinner there.

    I greatly enjoyed my meal and because I'm relatively slim, I was comfortable with the tight seating. The lady behind me was slim too, but the backs of our chairs were touching, same for everyone at our table. Unfortunately for the bigger people at our table, my partner and I had to pull the table tighter against ourselves for them to squeeze into their seats, and the people behind them were larger too, so people had to stand and adjust their chairs. We were all back to back. All coats had to be checked and all purses had to be put on the floor under the table because there was no room to hang anything on the chairs. When I return, it will have to be during the low season. As good as the food was, it was just uncomfortable enough. I feel like people who drink alcohol may not notice after a cocktail or two, but it was stressful for me.

    Have been here numerous times. This time the food was very tasteless and underwhelming. Had to send one dish back and manager never even came over to apologize. Unfortunately for some reason this restaurant has gone down in quality and we won’t be back.

    Went twice in the month spent skiing in Beaver Creek. Excellent food and service. Only negative was we had a crappy table that backed up into the waiter and waitress computer and staging station. We asked nicely for a move as we were being seated, but the young hostess just said “it’s a table for three” even though there were four place settings. Understand that they are trying to fit as many diners and families as possible.

    Delicious food. Enjoyed the Veal Scaloppini and the Short Ribs. Our server, Cody, provided great service and had great rapport with us. I recommend sitting in the back area, more informal and a view of the creek.

    Our server Fred made the experience fun while taking seriously all our dietary restrictions. Some of the food was subpar, nothing to complain about just nothing special. Great octopus, great steaks and great mac’n cheese.

    Love this place; we are regulars when in Valley. Unfortunately this time my Halibut was a very small thin tail piece that should not have been served to any patron. I will keep going back as I hope this will not happen again.

    We had ribeye steaks which was very good. For appetizers we ordered the cheese platter which came with half an apple and lots of really stale walnuts which were not really eatable. Ambiance is nice but for the price no one should be served unbeatable stale walnuts, our expectations were higher

    Very expensive for very ordinary and boring food. Had the filet mignon, lobster, and veal scallopini. Lobster was dry and over cooked. Filet was fine but nothing special. Veal qas slightly over cooked and felt boring too. Overall way overpriced and not good value

    They were able to accommodate us when we called ahead to add more people to our reservation. I love when a restaurant does that! My daughter loved her filet, and she loved my cousin's rib eye. She's a harsh steak critic, so kudos to the chef. My veal was perfect as always, my cocktail delish, and the suggested wine pairing for the group worked wonderfully with everyone's meal. A great dining experience!
