Splendido at the Chateau offers wonderful Rocky Mountain dining featuring hearty yet refined American-European cuisine. In summer, enjoy a cocktail or dine outdoors on our flower filled deck and enjoy great views of Beaver Creek Mountain. As the sun sets and the mountain chill sets in, retreat indoors and get cozy next to our lovely, double-sided, wood burning fireplace.
Splendido can comfortably accommodate a range of events including wedding receptions, family celebrations, cocktail parties, as well as business and corporate dinners with private facilities for catered meetings and seminars.

Our server was outstanding; she was remarkable and truly made our experience worthwhile. I can't recall her name, but she was a tall, thin, friendly vegetarian farmer living in Gypsum.

The Ranch House is always special but we attended a Wine Dinner which was outstanding. The ambience in the "glass house", the food presentation was beautiful and was also delicious, the service was wonderful and the staff knowledgeable about what they were serving and the wine was exceptional. All of the above with the view of the surrounding mountains and valley provided a perfect backdrop for a wonderful evening! Thank you to the Fanch's of Devils Thumb, and Rob of Devils Thumb and to Amber of Staglin Wines for a memorable evening!

Dined here opening night with their smaller scale summer menu, was delicious. I had the steak tacos which were fresh and tasty with a little squeeze of lime. My friend had the burger and fries thinking she would take half home and well, that didn’t happen - she ate the whole thing (and they accommodated her with a gluten free bun). Service was friendly and prompt. Lots of great cocktails and mocktails to choose from. The full menu which starts in July looks amazing, will be back for more!

The food was interesting and tasty, but the limited beer menu was disappointing.
