I can’t wait to go back again. I have traveled to many countries and gone to many upper scale restaurants, and this is in my top 3 as of now. I went in, and by the time I had finished my first bite, I was ready to make another reservation. No one was super overdressed, and everyone was so relaxed. It was refreshing. The service was impeccable. They do an excellent job at training the staff. Now, the food was just mouth-watering, an otherworldly experience.

A great experience overall. I love the inside decor and the outside seating looked really relaxing too. Wild mushroom soup was great. Enjoyed Trout for dinner and bread pudding for dessert. Didn’t have enough room in my belly to try all that I wanted.

First and foremost – what a cozy and beautiful location!! Pictures of this place don’t do it justice. And the valet is a lovely touch. Secondly – we were celebrating my birthday and the staff couldn’t have made me feel more special. Lastly – the food. Wow. We tried escargot for the first time (tasty), I had the Elk Denver Leg and it was outstanding, then we had dessert (I can’t recall what it was, but some form of chocolate dipped in an orange sauce). We had a lovely experience and cannot wait to go back!

Cozy mountain ambiance with friendly service, complimentary valet parking, and a variety of dishes not commonly found. A great way to start if these dishes are new to you is to get the meat sampler. We enjoyed the tenderness of the bison, mildness of the elk, and distinguishably gamey flavor of the emu. The cajun seasoning on the double-fried fries was a perfect contrast to the meat. The bread pudding has notes somewhat like a pecan pie flavoring, and the mousse and sorbet are lighter finishes. Highly recommend this dinner experience.

I can’t even tell you which part is more phenomenal – the staff, the food and drinks, the location, the ambiance – are all a solid 5 star. If I could give them over 5 stars, I would. We went to celebrate my husband’s birthday and this place pulls out all the stops when it comes to hospitality, food and drinks. By far one of the best meals we’ve had in the US. Mostly wild or exotic game, but executed eloquently enough for complex and novice palates alike. My husband could not get over (and still has not gotten over) how good the drinks were and how knowledgeable the bartender was. Though one would think the atmosphere would exude Michelin star finery, it’s actually more funky dive bar meets old traditional hunting lodge – tastefully eclectic. Can’t miss if you are in the area!

We went here for our honeymoon years ago, and just most recently for our anniversary. My vocabulary is inadequate to describe how delicious everything is. This place is special to me and my wife for helping us celebrate our marriage with delicious, close to nature food in a cozy and eclectic atmosphere.

My wife and I came to Gamekeeper for our anniversary in May of 2023. I had high expectations after reading other reviews and pondering the images of some of the dishes on Google, and I have to say that that night was one of the best meals I have had in quite a long time.

I thought I knew happiness before I ate at the gamekeeper, but what happiness I thought I knew was nothing compared to the pure joy I experienced eating this delectable food. I’m not sure if the staff has to get the food from heaven or if it gets delivered by angels, but either way the result is a perfect execution of delicious meals.

I recently went on my first visit to this restaurant – the entire experience was delightful! The food was delicious and the atmosphere very comfortable. In particular, I was impressed our waitperson was very aware of my dietary needs when I told her I have Celiac disease and needed a gluten-free dining experience. She was very helpful in giving me options and informed me that the kitchen could work to modify many of the dishes on the menu to suit my needs. I went with her recommendation, the Trout, and have no regrets. The rest of my family thoroughly enjoyed it as well. I highly recommend it – just be aware that you need to make your reservation far in advance.
