I have been coming here every year and the quality of food and selection is always above par. Their signature item is the French Onion Soup! Must try. This beautiful restaurant, nested inside the Broadmoor is absolutely beautiful with amazing food and ambiance. Every year they have something different so it never gets old. Perfect for dates and meetings - although it does get very loud. Maybe they should think about some acoustic paneling. My favorite here is their French onion soup (no one can beat it) and I absolutely love their fresh bread the butter. Portions are decent and their service is great. If you are alone they do have 5 bar seats which don't require reservations. Recommend: pastas, salad and soups, seafood. Very fresh. Seasoned French fries Do not recommend: burger or steak - last time it was hard and undercooked.

We had an early flight into Colorado Springs and this lunch was our first meal of the day. The restaurant had a beautiful sunroom where we ate. I ordered the French onion soup and you guys... they gave me fancy scissors! I was like umm what even is this for? It's for the CHEESE! The soup was the best French onion I've ever had in my life. The scissors actually were very handy to cut the cheese as I ate the soup. We also had shrimp cocktail and my bf had the steak. Everything was great! There was a family celebrating a birthday, so I think it's that kind of special occasion restaurant. We didn't visit the bar area but they had fresh oysters which looked really good. The servers were super nice and checked on us often.

We come to the Broadmoor about once a year and usually do our large family dinners at the Tavern (La Taverna). This evening our waiter Roy was on point with our service and more than accommodating to requests and making sure the kids were happy. For those of you who do not have kids, there is some anxiety with taking the younger ones out to a nice dinner as they can easily derail the evening and having staff that make sure they are having a good time relieves that pressure. We ordered a variety of items including steaks, some vegetarian pasta's, pork chops, and a few side dishes and everything was delicious. My tenderloin was cooked perfectly to a medium rare and the bearnaise sauce was exactly the rich and creaminess that I was craving. The atmosphere at the tavern is also great and the fact that they have been serving patrons at this location during times when most arrived by horse or train adds to that old world nostalgia. I would argue that they also have some of the best french fries as they are shoestring cut, crispy, with just the right amount of salt.

We went for dinner last night and everything was fantastic! We had a wonderful server Guillermo who made sure we were well taken care of. He was funny, nice and attentive and gave great recommendations. Half of our table ordered the French onion soup. It was delicious! The cheese on top was perfectly crusty and they gave you scissors to cut the cheese pull with. I ordered the scallops for dinner and my husband had the short ribs. My scallop dish was delicious and perfectly cooked. The sauce in the bottom of the plate was scrumptious, I could have had that as a bowl of soup! I thought the short ribs could have been more tender but they were still very very good! Overall fantastic first experience at the Broadmoor
