| With it’s cool jazzy modern decor, high ceilings and big bar, this is really the hot spot in Telluride for those looking for some late night action. The late night menu available Thursday through Monday is tops in town with snacks of Brie, scallops, smoked focaccia, soup, Caesar salad, fries and sandwiches. And if you’re really hungry you can order up a plate of lasagna or steak frites. The dinner menu is more extensive with a wide variety of pastas, pizzas and entrées ranging from beautiful plate of grilled seasonal vegetables with Polenta to chicken, fish, veal an steak---all prepared with touches more typically Californian than checker-tablecloth Italian. |
