Those looking for a fine-dining restaurant that comes with stunning mountain views, memorable food, and an intimate vibe should be sure to check out Grand View at Garden of the Gods Resort in Colorado Springs.

Let’s start with the scene – the restaurant’s panoramic windows show off Pikes Peak from what’s perhaps the best viewing angle in the city, with the mountain standing tall in the backdrop of the picturesque Garden of the Gods. Plus, the windows face west, meaning a great chance at spotting a Colorado sunset during dinnertime.

And the vibe doesn’t stop with the mountain views – warm wood decor, a fireplace, and elegant lighting inside the restaurant are sure to set the mood.

There’s no let-down when it comes to the food either – every course is exceptional, from the appetizers to the entrees to dessert. With entrees priced in a range of roughly $19 to $53, there’s enough variety to please most palates and price points of those looking for a fine-dining experience.

The drink selection is also noteworthy, as several in-house sommeliers drive an excellent wine list, with bartenders serving up specialty cocktails that are truly unique.

You’ll want to remember to save room for dessert. The selection, including various pies and cakes, is top-notch.

It’s also worth noting that while much of the Garden of the Gods Resort is private to members and guests, the Grand View restaurant isn’t. Any member of the public can check it out and a reservation is recommended. Those looking to simply pop by for the views and vibes may also consider a ‘happy hour’ visit, where some items and drinks are offered at a discounted rate.
