From the very moment I entered L'Hostaria, I was charmed & impressed! If you are looking for a wonderful, authentic Italian dining experience, look no further. Without question, L'Hostaria shines in every category of critique. I was warmly greeted by a friendly host (so many are snotty in Aspen), who offered me 3 prime seating choices at 8:15 pm on... more

Two friends and I had dinner there. Fortunately I did not order salmon, but both of them did and were disappointed, saying it lacked flavor. I had a tasty seafood stew in a tomato based broth, and amazingly, the fish chunks were tender and juicy. Wine by the glass was average price and good. We had a table in the... more

The spot is very crowded. The food is ok, average, nothing special. The staff forgot quite often to bring missing items, e.g. cheese, bread. The wine selection is huge, but quite pricy. more

I usually don't write food reviews, but I and my friends were so Dissapointed with the L'Hostaria restaurant, that I felt it to be necessary to warn others about how bad the dining experience is there. I and several of my friends stayed at the St. Regis which is very nice and a classy place to stay. The concierge at... more

I'm a big fan of Italian food, wine and ambiance. In fact, my wife and I search it out on every trip. I had the occasion recently during the Audi Aspen World Cup to entertain a dozen VIPs. We were all friends so something intimate was desired to celebrate a special occasion. And we had a few Aspenites in the... more

My wife and I went to L'Hostaria in late October of 2007. Not many restaurants were open as it was the off season. We had heard that L'Hostaria had good pasta, so I thought we would give it a try. I order the home made spaghetti and my wife ordered the nochi. I thought the spahgetti was rather average and... more

I have eaten in Italian food establishments across the US and in Europe and I must say that L'Hostaria ranks among the best. Even better than most in the little Italies of Boston, Baltimore and New York. I have never had a better Maile anywhere and this dish ,which is a specialty at L'Hostaria, has become the standard for me... more

We're Aspen locals, 10 years, and this is our favorite place. If you want great atmosphere and food, but not the snotty local attitude, this is your place. Nice restaurant, not for the little kids, so go, you'll like it. more

If this place is ranked # 4 in Aspen, I just don’t want to go to the rest of the list....yes, the place’s atmosphere is nice, but the food is just mediocre. Italian? Well, I guess overcooked pasta is called Italian too. But maybe if you were 21, you would love it. Have a slice of pizza anywhere else and... more
