Second dinner while staying in Vail. Another great experience. Alina our server was very friendly and attentive and shared some interesting news about her home country with us. Food (soup du jour, braised short ribs and prime rib) was excellent. Good selection of wines. We liked our bottle of Sand Point Merlot very much.

We had dinner on a Tuesday night at Northside Kitchen. We had a reservation. Unfortunately we could not score a booth, but our table was fine too. Our server Christine was just lovely, so energetic, friendly and attentive. We ordered the tuna tartare as an appetizer and the prime rib as our main dishes. Everything was just delicious. Paired with a nice bottle of Merlot we had a wonderful dinner. To our surprise they took 25% off due to mud season which was great. Not sure what the kitchen surcharge really does ( if it pays for the kitchen personnel roll it into the prices for the dishes). Looks like the ridiculous “resort fees” etc.. It appeared that they were somewhat short staffed, but the two servers (with the occasional help of the manager) did their best to provide excellent service.

Had a NY Strip and could only eat 2/3rds of it at best. Really tough cut also was served Luke warm... GF had a pesto past dish that was pretty flavorless - everything else was great for the most part but wouldn't dine here again

We dined at Northside Kitchen for Mother's Day! The staff was so welcoming and attentive. The filet and ribeye were prepared perfectly and the sides quite delicious. We also had the pleasure of eating some of the donuts they prepare on a daily bases I assume. They were light and amazing. This was our first time in Beaver Creek and I will absolutley dine at Northside Kitchen the next time I am here!

the Host greeted us warmly ; and had our table ready . The waiter Alex was most friendly and attentive, and knew the menu well. We had a delightful evening with very good service from Alex. The French Onion Soup was just the way I like it, not too salty ; and with lots of onions under the gruyere ! The tuna tartare was excellent ! We had the Lobster Colorado which came with a filet mignon and lobster bits and tiger shrimps . Again done very nicely The wine selection is excellent, and was delighted with my choice of Legende , a Medoc from the Rothschild chateau . We had bread pudding and icecream for dessert

Best food (& best value) in Avon / Beaver Creek. The bolognese is made with fresh pasta in-house, and the Lobster Colorado (surf & turf) featured a tenderloin cooked to perfection, and huge amount of lobster and shrimp. A must-visit! And they gave us a free bag of coffee when we mentioned we were out!

First time dining at Northside. Selected based on reviews and it was a terrific dinner. Service from Zach was excellent and appreciated that the manager checked in on us. Steaks were slightly overcooked but nothing that warranted it being sent back. We would eat here again.

On vacation at Beaver Creek. Great find! You wouldn’t expect to find great food and ambience in a place between a gas station and the medical center. The short ribs and trout were done very well- melt in your mouth and fish done perfectly. Beware of the steak rolls! Spicy! We are

Northside Kitchen has become our “go to” restaurant in Beaver Creek area. It is always outstanding. The food is very good- amazing short rib. We love the tenderloin egg rolls or the tuna tartare appetizer. Martini arrived with the perfect layer of ice. Wine list is excellent and pricing of bottles even better. I purposely did not finish my entree as I wanted dessert. The donut bread pudding did not disappoint. The staff is the perfect amount of attentive - an ability to properly staff a restaurant has been lost in recent years, but not at Northside. There is a personal touch we appreciate. Will continue to return to Northside. We have never been disappointed in any dish here. Also recommend the halibut and the Colorado lobster.

This restaurant was such a wonderful break from all the cheap burger and fries on the hill! It had a lovely clean, ambiance. White table cloths with roses and candles, but yet our “big kids” (14 & 11) were still aloud to use crayons to play hangman or tic tac toe while we waited. Host and waitress were very friendly and attentive. Kids menu was great value, large enough servings for our children and it came with healthy side options. My husband and I ordered Prime Rib & Filet, both were done to our request well and sides were fresh and delicious. I can’t recommend this restaurant enough! We were even gifted a bag of donuts on our way out for the kids! Excellent service!
