Best Lunch Restaurants in Steamboat Springs

Wonderful Christmas dinner experience at Yampa Valley Kitchen. We had wonderful food - roasted squash appetizer, the short ribs, salmon and pasta bolognese. Generous portions. Everything was delicious and gorgeously presented. Our server - Trinity? - was very cordial, friendly and had an inviting big smile. My favorite holiday songs played softly in the background - loud enough to hear but not overwhelming that we cannot talk. The restaurant’s decor is tasteful and current. We all would highly recommend Yampa Valley Kitchen.

Both the service and the food were amazing - we loved the variety on the menu so tried many different things and all were very good. We'll definitely be back!

Another amazing experience at E3. Our favorite restaurant in Steamboat, by far. The food is delicious and the service is impeccable.

Food was delicious! We are a family of 4 and went with our 2 young children and split several Tapas and 2 main dishes. Definitely go during happy hour for 30 % off Tapas and 50 % off drinks. Don’t skip the crispy Brussels sprouts & short beef rib tapas, and the Quesobirria Tacos are a must!

The staff was so excited to be open again after 5 closed seasons and it showed! They were excited and knowledgeable about the menu. The food was delicious and the “fixed” menus options met all dietary expectations. The cocktails were creative and tasty. The service was very personalized and attentive. The views are breathtaking and riding the gondola up the mountain at night was entertaining. Such a memorable meal. Shoutout to Jay our primary server.
