    Matsuhisa continues to be a crown jewel in a valley of fantastic restaurants. The food is always exceptional with a variety of options to please all palates. The drink menu provides a number of tasty sakes, wines and cocktails. The service is friendly, helpful and attentive. I highly recommend to anybody who is looking for fine dining in Vail.

    After doing Omakase on two separate occasions. I was pleasantly surprised by the service and overall knowledge of staff. However, the two stars overall is due to the quality of fish used. The tuna belly fat and blue fin had a an older texture and flavor. Maybe it was frozen for a long period of time. Also they served me Toro when I ordered Otoro but hey it’s sushi vail, Colorado. Go to aspen if you expect the best. Sincerely Sushi snob

    Unfortunately, I was beyond disappointed by my experience at Matsuhisa Vail and I understand this is not the normal response from those that have dined here so I'm hoping this was just a one-off experience. I will start off by saying- the wait staff was fabulous and this review does not reflect their work. My issue lays with the food itself- its quality, flavor, and presentation. As most would, I came in with high expectations and was enthusiastic about the omakase experience. After the second of nine courses we started to feel like we were waiting for that "wow" dish. We tried to continue on to see the rest of the courses hoping they would be better. Yet they were not. I ended up feeling bored and disappointed. Not only that, but my husband and I both became ill after our meal. We were up all night getting sick. To top it off- it was our honeymoon. We called the restaurant the next day to warn the manager that something they had served the previous night was contaminated. They were incredibly short and really seemed like they didn't want to hear it. A brief condolence was offered then the call ended. Suffice to say we will not be dining here again.

    Amazing food and lovely staff. We probably ate for 3 hours straight. Only regret is that we couldn’t go again before we leave!
