Mountain Standard

Founded in December 2012, the creators of the legendary Sweet Basil opened Mountain Standard as a rustic and relaxed tavern setting a new standard in the Vail valley by using an ancient form of cooking. The majority of Mountain Standard’s menu is prepared via the most primal cooking method: over an open and live wood fire. Mountain Standard is the only restaurant in the valley to devote themselves to this age-old way of cooking. The food at the restaurant has rustic, bold and honest flavors, focusing on the purest ingredients in the Rocky Mountain region and beyond. Service, like the cuisine, has that perfect balance of providing a first-class dining experience with a more casual vibe.
