" I have to rave about the food here! Tried the famous truffle fries and was not disappointed. They were crispy, flavorful, and worth every penny. The atmosphere felt lively, with a great mix of locals and tourists. However, I felt a bit rushed during my meal—our server cleared our plates too quickly. I love the concept and vibe of Ajax Tavern, so I’d give it another try, but maybe on a less busy night. " (*Curated Review*)

" I can't say enough good things about Ajax Tavern! Everything from the view to the service to the food was impeccable. I tried the wild mushroom risotto which was like a hug in a bowl—so comforting! We also enjoyed the charcuterie board as a starter, and it was beautifully presented. The staff was attentive and genuinely pleasant, which made our dining experience even better. Don’t skip the dessert; the chocolate lava cake was heavenly. " (*Curated Review*)

" It was our first time at Ajax Tavern, and we were really looking forward to it given the rave reviews we had read. The location is fantastic and makes for great people-watching. Unfortunately, while the ambiance was cozy, the service didn’t live up to our expectations. Our server was nice but noticeably overwhelmed. The food was okay; the truffle fries were good, but the burger was overcooked. We enjoyed our time but wouldn’t rush back. " (*Curated Review*)

" I had a great time at Ajax Tavern! We went for drinks and a light meal after skiing all day. The view from the patio is stunning, and the vibe is perfectly cozy. The appetizers we ordered were good—especially the charcuterie, but my main dish was a little underwhelming. The servers were friendly but seemed very busy. Overall a nice place to unwind. " (*Curated Review*)

" I visited Ajax Tavern recently with friends after a long day on the slopes, and it was everything we hoped for! We ordered a variety of dishes to share, and I was especially impressed by the Bolognese and charcuterie board. Everything was bursting with flavors. The service, while busy, was friendly and accommodating. The atmosphere was vibrant and relaxed; just perfect for unwinding after a day of skiing. This will definitely be a new tradition for us! " (*Curated Review*)

" I had the chance to try Ajax Tavern this past weekend, and it didn't disappoint. The atmosphere was buzzing, and we found ourselves seated right by the window, which was perfect for enjoying the evening views of the slopes. I ordered a seafood dish which was average but well complemented by the vibrant ambiance. I would definitely recommend this place for a lively dinner experience! " (*Curated Review*)

" Absolutely loved my experience at Ajax Tavern! The outdoor patio offered spectacular views of the mountain, and the atmosphere was relaxed yet lively. I ordered the Wagyu burger, which was simply divine and paired perfectly with their crispy truffle fries. The staff was attentive without being intrusive, and I appreciated their knowledge of the wine list. I’ll certainly be back next ski season! " (*Curated Review*)
