Vail Mountain is opening a new restaurant this season on December 1 called The 10th named in honor of the 10th Mountain division. The restaurant is located at mid-Vail, some of us at the Antlers were lucky enough to be invited to their soft opening to try out the food, see the new building and all the amenities they have to offer. The menu has a great selection and I was surprised that the prices weren’t as high as I was expecting.
I think the consensus in our group was that the best part is the slippers provided so that guest can be completely comfortable while they dine. The 10th is a full service restaurant where guests can have a nice sit down lunch complete with a server and all. It is a nice alternative to the busy cafeteria style restaurants through out the mountain.
I have to admit my favorite part (I know it’s weird) is that the bathroom door handles glow red when they are occupied!
They do recommend reservations, something that will take some getting use to for most everyone. But, you can do it through opentable.com, so that is handy!

The new Vail restaurant looks wonderful! It is a big upgrade from the so so dining that I have had on the mountain in vail in the past. Hopefully it is as good as it looks!
