    The Tunnel was a unique experience in combining unique tastes and courses into one dinner. the service was excellent and Chef carefully explained the courses and what to look for in the wine pairings. We sat in the Communal room. it was mind broadening to have conversations with all the different attendees.

    Special “speakeasy” feel in a private room - 5 or 6 course led by the chef. Really fun experience for our teenagers too! Perfect finale for our trip to Telluride.

    Wonderful 6 course meal that changes regularly. I appreciated the chef coming out with each course. He is warm and clearly enjoys what he does. Unless your group is big, you will be seated with other people. We had a nice time getting to know the other people at our table.

    This was our second visit to The Tunnel and the food was once again excellent as was the service. We of course chose the wine pairing with our dinner and highly recommend doing so. This is a great dining experience. We will definitely be back.

    The "speakeasy" style the Tunnel has curated made for a truly unique and exciting experience. The food was delicious and well thought out and executed. I highly recommend the Tunnel as a one of a kind dining experience.

    It is such a cool concept in Telluride and the communal dining is an awesome part! Cocktails were great, and the structure was great also. Honestly/ the timing made it not the most ideal- we were in there for over 3 hours for a 6 course meal, with lots of waiting for the wine and the next course. Wine pairing was ok. Most of the food was delicious- some was not very hot/warm. The service was incredibly warm and fun (besides the timing). Would recommend as it’s a really unique experience! Maybe a smaller party would be better?

    Hello, I am sorry your experience was not any better that evening. We were 1 kitchen member short that evening due to a injury on the hill. Our apologies it is usually done in a hour 1:45 minutes. As we have to turn the room in a 2:15 minute time frame, there also was a couple late parties that held up the evening for a little while, let us make it up to you next visit. Thank you Mark
