We were 2nd table in restaurant seated at 5:30. We didn’t have any drinks or food ordered for 20 minutes+ and finally at 6:50 had to get our food to go as we had a 7pm performance. They were resistant to give us any refund for the food. Will not return-used to love it for decades as a place to go before performances.

Everything was wonderful- the food, service, menu and ambience. However, I am a light eater but left the restaurant hungry after my dinner with 3 scallops and a shared dessert of the black forest torte. Would have been nice to have some vegetables or bread that were part of the entry, or at least a heads up that everything is a la carte.

Overall positive experience at West End Social. The shuttle picked us up at our hotel which was so helpful. Our Server was Amber, she was professional yet personable. She knew the menu and helped us with wine selection. Since this was our last night in Aspen the food and atmosphere was stunning. Hope to return soon.

I ordered a typical breakfast. It was good but would have been better if it had been hot. I do like the ambiance and it is one of the few restaurants that tries to maintain a decent noise level. Usually, I have an excellent meal so this one surprised me a bit. The portions were large, it would be good for a big appetite but I might not call it a “good value”. It is likely competitive with high end choices here. I will still keep them on my list of preferred restaurants.
