    Our family has been visiting Vail for well over 30 years. This restaurant has it all and we love it! We love the cool cozy atmosphere, the dining’s room open spaces, the ambient lighting and snow covered trees just outside the expansive windows. The wait staff are professional, courteous and knowledgeable. The food is delicious and the entire meal is a culinary treat. The Left Bank is one of our favorite dining out experiences, and is excellent choice for a special occasion.

    Fantastic food and drinks- great service. My first baked Alaska ever and it was great. We got dishes we just don’t find elsewhere. Great meals all around.

    The Left Bank was a favorite for years. We took several years off as our son’s palate improved. He loved the meal tonight. So did we. Back in the Vail rotation!
