My husband and a friend visited Kelly Liken this past week. The food was very fresh, superb quality and very accommodating. Our friend was a vegan and they were happy to make dishes to fit his needs. The desert was amazing, along with my vegetable lasagna. I highly recommend this restaurant. more

I had heard lots of good things about Kelly Liken from friends (and reviews) so I finally gave it a try. When we walked in the door, we were treated with a very warm welcome and you could tell this place is run by professionals. I wish the professionalism of the staff carried over into the preparation of the food.... more

I've lived in the Vail area for 8 years, so I make it my business to try a variety of different restaurants. I like to make knowledgable recommendations to the guests staying in my rental condos. My wife and I finally tried Kelly Liken, and we were not disappointed. I half-feared that it might be overpriced and pretentious, but I... more

Four of us went here for dinner on our recent trip to Vail and after a short discussion it was declared the best restaurant we visited on our trip. The food was excellent. I had scallops as an appetizer and then short ribs for dinner. Each dish was full of flavor and delicious. I also tasted the rack of lamb... more

Kelly Liken continues to underwhelm me. I went back again thinking it was me last time as this restaurant receives a good deal of positive press. It is just a nice place with slightly above average taste. For a place of this stature I want to experience a tremendous wow factor with each bite. Just not happening. The decor is... more

We came to Kelly Liken with the highest of expectations. As big city foodies we were transfixed with the idea of local products from one of the nation's richest game states. Result: sweatbreads as advertised.....not on the menu. Foie gras....from upstate NY. Picking nit aside, the service was poor with a waitress who explained nothing and never relented in her... more

We had high hopes for this restaurant, based on NY Times and Frommers reviews, and were not disappointed. Reservations were easy to make and we were greeted by friendly and attentive staff. Our waiter described the dishes in some detail, but quickly brought the sommelier when asked details of wines on the very interesting list. The sommelier was quite friendly... more

As we strolled the Village yesterday afternoon, Robert, the dining room manager, greeted us as we walked by the entrance to this delightful establishment. He offered a look at the menu, and without pressure, wondered if a reservation would be desired? The menu and ambiance of the place made that a must, and we returned at 6 to enjoy a... more

After Hearing wonderful things about the restaurants in Vail, I deceided to give Kelly Liken a chance. The service was lacking in information and knowledge of the menu items, if it wasn't written on the menu they were clueless. In fine Dining you expect to pay more, but you also expect to be satisfied with the meal. Perhaps if the... more
