221 South Oak
A local favorite, with small, seasonal menus playful with world flavors. In a cozy historic home, dine on watermelon, blueberry and feta salad in summer and five-spice shortribs with sweet potato wontons in winter. Vegetarian menu available upon request.

The on-site restaurant at the Hotel Columbia is one of Telluride's most respected for fine modern dining – can you resist Himalayan yak ribeye or lobster corn dogs? The food is certainly inventive, which makes up for sometimes snooty service.

New Sheridan Chop House
With superb service and a chic decor of embroidered velvet benches, this is an easy pick for an intimate dinner. Diners can start with a cheese plate, but from there the menu gets Western. Pasta comes with a creamy wild mushroom and sage sauce. Meat eaters should try the elk shortloin in a hard cider reduction. For a treat, top it off with a flourless dark chocolate cake in fresh caramel sauce.
