Perched at the gondola stop 10,551 feet up, between Mountain Village and Telluride, Allred’s capitalizes on its position with enormous windows that frame the snow-capped mountains and rustic stone walls; a timbered ceiling adds to the alpine atmosphere. Creative American dishes include elk short loin and four cuts of Colorado steaks. It is also perfect for sunset cocktails on your way down to Telluride or for stargazing over coffee on your way back up. The 30-person private dining room is ideal for celebrations.
