Campo de Fiori
It's a splurge, but then all of Vail is a splurge – and this is a worthy one. Where else in town can you slurp black mussels and follow it up with a proper spinach and ricotta agnolotti (half-moon ravioli), and then follow that with a grilled ruby trout, NY strip or a Colorado lamb rack? The risotto dello chef ain't bad either.
It's all served in a romanitc mediterranean villa interior. And the vibe is almost always wine-drenched and alive.

Lulu Wilson
This one's for the casual gourmet. You'll love the shabby-chic chandeliers, gold-washed chairs and exposed-brick interior, and the marble tables outside. You'll also love the branzino stuffed with lobster and roasted whole, the braised rabbit over pappardelle, the housemade gnocchi and the Colorado-grown lamb. The raw bar offers lobster ceviche, tuna crudo and oysters on the half-shell. Groovy all around.

Campo de Fiori
Authentic Italian cooking and festive Mediterranean flair have been the mainstay of this mini-mall kitchen off Aspen's restaurant row for more than a decade. The menu mimics its Vail sister. It's seasonal, the gnocchi house made, and the seafood – especially the calamari – is excellent.

Mezzaluna Aspen
Known for its delicious wood-fired pizzas and serious Italian grub, Mezzaluna is a favorite with Aspen's locals. The après-ski happy hour - from 15:00 to 17:30 - is usually packed. While you munch at the marble bar, check out more than 100 pieces of art on the walls.
