Best Dining in Aspen Valley is Juicy Lucy’s Steak House – Glenwood Springs Eats
Places To Eat In Glenwood Springs
When we decided to change our life and escape the hectic city life we started seeking out our paradise. Living on the California coast was great, but packed regardless of what entertainment we picked to do. We had learned about Colorado and the wide open spaces, especially on the Western Slope with towns like Aspen and Vail that are smaller communities, but also popular cultural centers.
Flying into Grand Junction we started east on Interstate 70 to check out Aspen and Vail. It was late afternoon when we arrived in Glenwood Springs and felt this would be a great place to spend the night and then decide on Aspen or Vail in the morning. We elected to stop at the old and quaint Hotel Colorado and after settling into our room we wanted to discover what Glenwood Springs gave us to see. The front desk clerk recommended some small shops to see, but when we inquired about fine dining he suggested it depends on the food you want to enjoy. Being in Colorado I wanted a nice steak, but my sweetie insisted on seafood like in California. I explained to her the nearest ocean was several miles away, so the seafood should never be ashigh quality as we could get at home, but she insisted. So her suggestions was a small eatery directly across the bridge called Juicy Lucy’s steak house where we could have the best of both worlds.
Once we had finished visiting several unique shops we found Juicy Lucy’s Steakhouse and after a short amount of time at the historic bar we were shown our table. As I looked over the menu I noticed the best meal for me, Colorado Elk Sirloin. Organically grilled elk sirloin sliced and served on sautéed portabella mushrooms, but I was impressed by the {fish|seafood|fresh catch| selections on the menu. I was even more impressed by their daily specials like; Broiled Sea Scallops stuffed with Alaskan King Crab or Fresh fish Mequite Grilled over the BBQ. I had to inquire about the age and quality since it was certain the closest ocean was many miles away. He implied they only purchase the freshest ingredients and the seafood is flown in fresh six days a week. My wife choose the Sea Scallops and I will tell you this if you had no idea you were in {the rocky mountains|Colorado|dry regions of the country| you would swear you were at a seafood restaurant by the beach.
The next day we decided on Carbondale, and couldn’t get over the small pueblos from all over the Aspen Valley. In this valley we could sled in the winter, fly fish in the summer, hike, bike and be by ourselves, or go to a fun event or concert almost any night. We found our wonderful retirement place and knowing that regardless where we settled in the area we were only a short trip away from the greatest seafood in the middle of the Rocky Mountains. Who would have thought that a fine dining establishment named Juicy Lucy’s Steakhouse would facilitate us make one of the best choices of our life.
