Ludwig's Reviews List

Ludwig's

Ludwig’s – Ocean to Table – with our Executive Chef, Steve Topple. Steve specializes in fresh seafood and wild game, bringing a new and exciting twist to the Ludwig’s menu. The catch-of-the-day from Hawaii to Maine will be served at Ludwig’s the following day in a light and delicious cuisine. Steve will highlight his experience by preparing Colorado venison and elk with a uniquely tender consistency not typically found in wild game cuisine. Fresh ingredients, light and healthy, artfully prepared - the new Ludwig’s theme. Still present at Ludwig’s is the award-winning selection of wine, refined European service and attention to detail. Treat yourself to an updated Vail tradition.

"Ludwig's left much to be desired. We had the tuna pizza which came soaked in an aoli that masked the ahi tuna. The lamb chops were delicious but again, the sauce covered everything and one couldn't really taste the meat, the beets or anything else on the plate. The beef duo was only ok. Our real issue was that for the truly high prices, and such good ingredients, why didn't we walk out wanting to return??"

"I had picked this restaurant as i wanted a very special dinner for the celebration of my birthday. I was so disappointed with the quality of the food and the service. Very disappointed as the lamb chops were all fat and the fish not well prepared. Extremely slow service."
