Revel Lounge

The Food and Craft Cocktails at the Revel Lounge within the Hythe Hotel (Vail, Colorado) were amazing! I was there on business for 5 days and ate at the Revel Lounge at least once every day. Everything I ordered was top notch, especially the Grilled Cheese & Steak Sandwich!The lounge has a good vibe and the staff was welcoming & attentive. Cassandra, one of the bartenders, makes the best Old Fashioned - apparently she also works at a local Whiskey Bar so that math adds up! .

The place has a nice vibe, relaxing atmosphere and comfy chairs. There was a guy playing guitar (and flugelhorn) who wasn't all bad, though not exactly memorable.My wife wife had a drink called a Figgie Smalls, which I thought was terrible, but she drank it and smiled. My Jack Daniels on the rocks did not disappoint, it seldom does.We ordered something called the Revel Raclette Epicurean Experience which was neither raclette nor epicurean and not much of an experience. Raclette parties at our house is one of my wife's favorites, so maybe our expectations were to high. This however, was not anything like any raclette we've ever done.There was no cooking the food on a hot griddle and no melting the cheese. There was a finger bowl of melted cheese served with pickled veggies and a few chunks of over-cooked elk. Very disappointing for raclette fans.

Ok. This place. It has some good qualities. The best one being our waitress which was an absolute sweetheart so I just wanted to say that first and foremost. But the food...oh where do I start. We ordered the filet medium and a burger and it took an hour for our food. Hubby got his filet 10 minutes before I got my burger as well. Bread rolls? Don't recommend. Looks like paper. No good. The burger was not that great but it was edible and I loved the fries. There's also the issue of differing menus so the filet plate hubby ordered, didn't match. Thought he was getting whipped potatoes and asparagus but got a green paste with colorful cauliflower instead. When we asked the waitress about the menus, she did mention that there was an issue and that someone really needed to proofread these menus lol. At the end of the day, we would say that our waitress should be running the place because she was the one actually paying attention. This hotel is super crowded and it seems like there's just some things that need to be fixed. Maybe they will fix these things and they will be amazing in the future, but right now I will not recommend this place.

We were staying at the Hythe and decided to check out the restaurant on a chill Sunday! It was off season and a Sunday which probably accounted for how dead it was so it was a bit baffling that the reservation required a credit card up front and would have charged $25pp fee for no shows - as when we saw we were about the only patrons we would have left of not for the fee.The atmosphere was dead but food was great! Lovely cheese plates featuring local cheeses, a water melon salad, an eggplant veggie dish and grilled artichoke! Service was kinda a miss! The completely forgot one dish then included it on the bill along with the entire order from the party behind us! I imagine it's better in season but food and drinks were good!

I spent a lovely evening at Revel with some friends who were staying at The Hythe. We ordered a charcuterie board and wine to start. My favorite part was the honeycomb. Then for my entree I ordered the Colorado Trout and whipped potatoes and it was very good. I loved the ambiance of the restaurant and hotel. Our service was great and the manager of the restaurant made sure to check in with us and ensure we had a great dinner experience. I would love to come back!

We stayed at the Hythe during our trip to vail so naturally, we found ourselves going to revel basically every day for some apres ski drinks and snacks. They usually had live music which was great, the ambiance was dim and cozy, and the drinks were all delicious. The service was friendly, but the drinks did sometimes take a while to arrive. We tried a few food items here and everything was delicious as well. Some cocktails and a charcuterie board is the perfect post-ski pre-dinner vibe. Highly recommend!

Elegant modern hotel with very hip restaurant. They had a DJ at the restaurant playing great music that set the mood wonderfully. Yet he never made it about himself. The decor is spectacular and the service is very good and the menu has great selection and flavor. Highly recommended.

We came to eat here on numerous occasions in the past two years. Their breakfast is pretty good. Although I have to say I was unable to cut through the pancake which was a part of their open buffet type of a set up. Selection is ample for breakfast. For lunch we had Colorado Mountain Trout which was very good, Elk Tenderloin which was ok. ( the steak knife was not provided) and server not particularly interested in that fact. Our teenager had a Truffle Pasta with grilled chicken which he loved. For dinner on a separate occasion we had trout again :). The mushroom carpaccio was dry. I do want to point out the mushrooms were fresh and of a great variety. Indeed the best mushrooms forest would offer :). The Wild Game Meatballs were the best! Highly recommend this particular dish. Although it was not clear what wild game was involved in the dish. The menu is quite limited. I ordered the Hythe Spritz and was told by the server that that drink was not available??? Mysteriously, the Hythe Spritz appeared on our bill at the end and we had to ask for it to be removed LOL

The drinks were so good and Revel is a great place for a night cap if you're staying at the hotel. The sandwich and salad were amazing and easy shareables.

Service was the worst - they automatically give themselves 20% tip and have no need or desire to serve appropriately No checking in Food - 7 course tasting was horrible Not fresh, cold, tiny portionsAmbiance- lovelyWould not recommend this place beyond water and drinks
