Best Restaurants with a Tasting Menu in Manitou Springs

We always love dinner at Ambli but tonight was next level. The menu was creative and so flavorful. The lobster dish our favorite. The sea bass was cooked perfectly and the sauce for the fish seriously made us want to lick the bowl.

Every Valentine’s Day we treat ourselves and have been to many Valentine’s Day special menus at various 5 star restaurants. I randomly stumbled across the Cliff House and decided to book. Everything from the ambience to the staff to the pianist was impressive. The historic building was beautiful, the food excellent and our steaks were just right. I recommend it for sure! We will be back!

Melody our server was outstanding. She was knowledgeable about wine pairings and the menu. She was attentive, but did not make us feel rushed. Sea bass and rack of lamb were delicious. Only improvement would be the seating. Our table was within 1.5 feet of other guests on both sides. This reduced the overall ambiance as conversations did not feel private. Couple next to us asked to move for this very reason. Great food and service, improve the layout of the tables to increase privacy and ambiance.

Always amazing and not sure how often they rotate the menu but it’s always spot on good. Excellent wine list and suggestions. Love the location.

We went to Four by Brother Luck for my birthday and we did the four course dinner. Because it was my birthday, they gave us 2 glasses of a sparkling wine free. We had the jalapeno poppers and spinach tortellini for Course 1. The poppers are extremely delicious and the tortellini had a wonderful sauce. Course 2 was Duck Green Chili and Lamb Stew. Both had very nice flavors! Course 3 was New York Strip and Black Garlic Cod. The sauces on the steak were very nice and the cod was crispy. The lentils under the cod added a lot of flavor to that dish. For dessert we had the orange sopapillas and the banana chiffon cake. Both were very nice. It is expensive to do the four course dinner, but for a special occasion it was worth it.
