Un must cada vez que visitamos Vail. La comida es deliciosa de la mejor calidad, el servicio excelente, son súper amables y profesionales, nuestro mesero Jackson muy atento y al pendiente de detalles como conseguir opciones de pan y postres sin gluten. Vale mucho la pena venir! Única observación, ojalá te dieran la opción de porciones más pequeñas del fondue de queso, la ración de 2 personas (que es el mínimo) alcanza como para 4-5 personas si es que quieres pedir otras cosas del menú y no solo comer fondue de queso, si van solo dos personas es demasiado para que lo tomen en cuenta ;)
