“A mix of Mexican food, wild game birds and ribs are on the menu at The Minturn Saloon, a popular eatery in a historic building in Minturn, not far from Vail. It’s as homey and affordable as Vail is upscale, and typifies Colorado cuisine at its best.” – AAA Magazine

Minturn has menu items for everyone and one of the favorites is the quail. They also offer nightly specials and children’s menu.

Another amazing thing about Minturn Saloon is that they don’t cut corners. All of the salsas and sauces are made fresh daily.

The restaurant is a fun and informal place that it evokes the feeling of home and family. They were also praised for being reasonably priced. If you have a special event or a small gather, Minturn Saloon can also accommodate special bookings, catering, and reservation.
