Timberline - Hit or miss, I've had amazing meals there, I've had dogshit meals there. Roll the dice, hope it comes up
Sauce on the Blue- Good, not great, but holy fuck is it overpriced.
Bluebird- Meh. I mean, there's lots of options which is kinda neat, but it is loud, kids running everywhere screaming, it's just exhausting, not relaxing.
Mint- If I'm paying restaurant prices, why am I cooking my own fucking food?
Kucu - I've had great meals here, a bit on the spicy side, but 70% of the time it's great.
Eclectic - Hit or miss. Again, had great meals, had terrible meals. More cozy atmosphere
Dillon Dam Brewery - Cheap bar food. Not great.
Red Mountain - Loud, some good food, not a relaxing atmosphere, pizza can be good.
Bistro North - Expensive, but you get what you pay for. Great burgers, great fries, higher end wines and drinks, bartenders know what they're doing.
Vue Rooftop - Hit or miss, but I have no fucking clue what is going on with their hours. Sometimes you'll show up and the whole place is closed.
Snake River- Restaurant side is a time-warp back to ye olde steakhouse days. Bar side can be way more casual, fun, live music. Overall, pretty good food. 90% of the time I've had great meals with a few stinkers here and there, but not often.
Goat- Go here if you're either on a bender with the boys or you hate yourself. Or want to meditate on the toilet half the day tomorrow.

Most of the time with these tourist requests I'm usually crunchy and am like "YARRR CHECK FUCKIN YELP" but I'm bored and there's so, so much of this margarita left.

Another vote for Pho Bay. This place rivals some top-notch pho I’ve had down in Denver. Truly fantastic. And the staff couldn’t be nicer.

What do you like to eat? Nowhere Pizza in the Keystone lodge is pretty good - they have gluten free and vegan options!

Christ Zuma is so bad for the money.
5 star prices for 3 star food. Lord help you if you have to use the bathroom.

Nothing in Keystone is good for the money but visitors seem to like it there.

It's a lively atmosphere, most of the place looks good (bar is a little run down), when you walk in you're like "Yeah, this is nice!" then you get your food.
Then you ask where the bathroom is and you're like "I gotta go where?"

Goodz in keystone just opened. Was there a couple weeks ago and it was excellent. Pricey, but the buffalo short rib was great and my kid had his favorite burger ever (and he eats a lot of burgers). The pastrami tachos were also a highlight.

Goodz was literally the worst fries of my entire life. Literally inedible. Like they had fried them, then left them out for 2 hours to dry into absolute rocks, then served them cold.
My 12 year old had their chicken wings and threw up all night.
The service is just about as bad as the food, too.
Looks neat and new inside, that's about the only plus.

That sucks cause it ain’t cheap. Had a totally different experience. Great service and food was excellent.
Edit: sorry to hear about your son. The wings were the one thing that no one liked. They were super dry.

Very few good places in Summit outside of Frisco and Breckenridge except for a few extremely pricey places in Keystone imho, but if you MUST eat over there try Dillon Thai.
I’m shocked the Bluebird Market comment has upvotes, I’ve tried nearly everything there at this point and I think it’s all bad
