Hazie’s

Cute cozie bar at Thunderhead Lodge with great views down the mountain. Pricey as they have you over a barrel. But the views…

We stopped here on a Bloody Mary adventure and happened to get a bowl of soup while there. We Sat at the bar. Best bar seat views around. Bartender was friendly And made great drinks. Actually all the staff was nice… they ask where you are from .And it seems we always find someone from the area or surrounding area. They give recommendations on what runs to go on according to level… far more than bs chit chat. Any who… we only had a bowl of soup and bloody Mary. Bloody was great… bowl of soup was by far the best bowl of soup I have ever had. It was beef barley. And it tasted so good. It was a cream base but not heavy… it had a fresh vegetable taste… beef was flavorful and tender. Amazing. .can’t wait to go back and try other items!

I realize and appreciate that we visited Steamboat during the busiest week of the year. We always love sitting at Hazies, enjoying the most beautiful view on the mountain. This was no exception. 5 star views, but 1 star service at best. The staff all seem to have an attitude that they’d rather be anywhere but there– I don’t blame them, though, I’m sure the snow calls them! Anyway– we made 1:15 reservations, finally seated at 2:00. They are usually out of several menu choices. We waited so long to place our order. Waited ages to receive our food– extra ham was requested for the croque madam. The saddest looking Sandwich arrived with a n egg on top that had been fried hours before, the extra ham?– it was just tossed on top of the whole plate! Kind of insulting, as there was an $ 8.00 extra charge. 20 minutes after ordering a bottle of wine, it came. If you make the mistake of showing up hungry on a busy day, just do the little buffet for $ 25 ($ 18, if you don’t get the meat).

We had 8 pm reservations. Seated at 8. Did not receive water until 8:30 pm. Restaurant overbooked and understaffed. If the holiday is the busiest time of year and everyone has reservations– wouldn’t you plan ahead? It’s 9:30 pm and no dinner and have had to aggressively ask for water refills and our drinks. Temperature in room room hot as hell and no view. Lights are up too high so you can’t see anything out the window. Very slow service. I feel sorry for the wait staff. Chef probably really good. Had one crab cake. Delicious and the soup delicious. But crying kids, sauna, no view and no service not worth it! Don’t do it.
Food was good. Waitress and staff nice. Just need to get the basics down better for the holiday crowd.

Not worth the view…
I cannot disparage the view; it is very nice. However, the food and service are atrocious. The wait staff takes an inexplicable amount of time to bring each item (including drinks and even bread). I ordered their tomahawk ribeye, which the waitress forgot to write down properly, so I go a normal ribeye. Perhaps the waitress thought I said «give me the worst steak you got with as much fat and gristle you can. Oh, and please make it so rare that it is barely, edible.» That is the steak I got. Seriously. The. Worst. F#$&ing. Steak. I. Have. Ever. Had!
When I pointed this out to the manager, they offered me 20% off my dinner (only mine, not the rest of the table). If that meal represents 80% of their ability, then this place has really gone down hill (no pun intended). My family has been going to this restaurant for ten years. This will be the last.

This has to be the worst restaurant with the best view in Steamboat. The food was not good at all. My steak was full of fat and grizzle. It got stuck in my teeth so bad all I wanted to do was go home and find some dental floss. The waitress tried to explain this ribeye is marbled for flavor as if I had never eaten a decent piece of meat before. It was marbled all right… with fat and grizzle. I would have preferred Sizzler. That’s when the condescending manager came over and talked down to me as if my steak was good and I didn’t know what I was talking about. He did comp my steak which I didn’t eat anyways. I was so disgusted I lost my appetite. The fixed price meal plus cocktails and appetizers is about $ 125 a person. Totally overpriced. By the way don’t sit downstairs unless you want a shower from people upstairs. It has a great view but it’s not worth eating there. Fancy overpriced food that tastes mediocre at best.

Was really looking forward to this dinner with my family, was very disappointed in this restaurant. For it being a highly rated top tier restaurant it was a big let down. Service was mediocre at best ! Water glasses were not refilled had to ask all the time, my son beverage was not brought to him had to have waitress reminded. The salad and appetizer was delicious ! My husband main course was was awful he had the ribeye and it was full of grizzle and fat ! and the wait staff proceeded to inform us that is due to the marbling !! «what» I have dine a lot of places I don’t think I need people to tell me about marbling of meat!!!
Dessert so so
Won’t be going back
Manger was not that nice
They did comp my husband meal
Over price place tourist trap! But great views!

Great mountain dining and bre prepared to pay for it! Hazie’s has a view that can’t be beaten in Steamboat … It is a great place to relax with a absolutely stupendous view of the valley.
Great service and the manager always stops by to make sure that your experience is a great one. (One time I mentioned that my Elk steak was cooked past (Medium to my request for Med. Rare) what I ordered and they manager had another one brought out. Wouldnt accept that I didnt need them to do that)
My only improvement would be the portion sizes … i know everything goes up the gondola or in a snowcat during the winter, but at those prices, a little larger portion size would be good.

We went up last night, very disappointed in the service, our server was a sweetheart she was just overwhelmed. The Manager walks around smiling and grinning, but he should of stepped up and helped his Servers, we will go again, for Lunch, Not Dinner.

The food was really good, the experience was great, but there were a few errors during our meal and it was very hot upstairs for our dinner. It is pricey so I would have expected really perfect service. However, the views are outstanding and the menu had a very good selection.
I’m not positive I would go back, expect for a special occasion or only to see if the service improved.

I was excited to celebrate Valentine’s at Hazie’s which I haven’t been to in over a decade. Riding the gondola at night is worth it all by itself. Unfortunately the gondola ride at night and the view from Hazie’s are the only reasons to go. There are great options on the menu but everything is very lacking in taste. It will be drinks only for now on. Lesson learned.

It’s pretty interesting to be at the top of the mountain and take the gondola up at night. The views are probably better still when there is some light out but it’s definitely a different vibe to feel like you have the whole mountain to yourself. Ordered the bison carpaccio, lobster roll & tiramisu but had a taste of the duck wings, Hawaiian tuna poke, beef barley soup, Rocky Mountain Elk Strip Loin and chicken fingers. We also ordered the Aldersheim pinot noir (very smooth). Everything I had was delicious! There are also huge panoramic style windows to enjoy the view. Really cute — the oil for the bread actually had a cursive «H» drawn in there with balsamic vinegar. The bison was yummy and although the lobster roll was served a bit colder & with more veggies than I would like, it was solid. There was a decent amount of lobster in there. Tiramisu was served in a glass and disappeared pretty quickly. Never had duck wings served that way before and it was good. The tuna poke was delicious as well and vanished shortly after it was served — the «wontons» that accompanied it was quite good with just the right amount of crunch without feeling like you’d crack a tooth on it. Everything that was served with the elk dish including the elk was tasty — my only complaint is that it wasn’t a bigger portion.

This place is a must for me every time I’m in Steamboat Springs. The view is amazing and the food is too. Last time I went, for an anniversary lunch, the service was a little slow in the beginning. But otherwise I’ve only had wonderful experiences here!

It took a minute to get service (drink order), but the manager noticed and reminded the wait service. It was probably a fluke because After that, wait service was impeccable. I had the swordfish club. The bread was a little too buttery and overall it was delicious! My smokin hot girlfriend had the grilled cheese. I took a bite and loved it too. Portions were normal, scenery was perfect. With the dining on top of the mountain, there is a Great view of the town below. Prices were fair considering the location.

Hazie’s, located in the upper gondola station, is the best bar with a view on the mountain in my book.
There’s a choice of buffet, with carving station, or ordering from the daily menu.
The bar is especially popular with the locals.
If Brian is tending bar, be sure to try one of his signature Hot Bloody Marys, the key ingredient being high-​end vodka, infused (i.e. marinated for days) with several types of chili peppers. A wonderfully complex and refreshing cap to a great day of skiing the ‘Boat.

Back in Steamboat for the Pow and Hazie’s is still kick’n it.
Rode up on the Gondola after dark — very romantic, private ride, with blankets and a gazillion stars — yes it works! Ok about the food.
Drinks at he bar overlooking the Yampa Valley and the town of Steamboat:
They infuse vodka with everything — try something you’ll like it. If not try it again — I guarantee you’ll like it.
The view is incredible.
Crab and Artichoke appetizer — wife says one of the best appetizers she has ever had.
Elk tenderloin — perfectly prepared and delicious.
Sea bass — tender, flaky, and full of favor — it was the catch of the day so it varies.
They have a decent wine list and at around 9,000 feet ASL, the martini and a few glasses of wine, the view — it just works!
Yep, this is a winner!

Try the infused vodkas. I had a cherry martini that I am still craving so much that I’ll b getting another tomorrow and I am going to try and replicate it at home. The food is lovely. Even the French fries are a savory level above ur average French fry.
Beret salad, potato leek soup, blue cheese burger, everything was a step above the ordinary and the staff are exceptional. I’ve been twice and intend to eat and drink here for lunch every day I ski u til I have to head home. I wish they served dinner. I’d expect some ridiculously delicious offerings.

We recently went to Hazie’s for dinner and had a great time. Joey was our server and he was great! He was obviously having issues with other difficult tables (which I only noticed because I have worked in the service industry as well), but he didn’t skip a beat and was still very attentive and a joy as a server. The food runner and everyone that we encountered in the restaurant was extremely pleasant and helpful.
I would highly recommend Hazie’s! The prices are high but you should be expecting that before hand. Great food, great service!

Nice place on the Mountain for Lunch or to take the Gondola for Evening Dinner.
I stop about once a month for a bowl of soup and a Jasper (local name for an Arnold Palmer). The staff is top notch and the ambiance is a step up from the Stoker Bar immediately below. I visit Hazie’s to relax after a hard morning powder day but most of the time it is either the Food Court at Thunderhead or Rendezvous, The Deck at either place on a Blue Bird Day or just ski to the bottom for home or maybe Slopeside.

We stopped in for lunch on a snowy day. We did not have a reservation but it was only about a 15 min wait for a table for two. The hostess updated me often with what was going on with the table we were getting. There is a bar to the right and a small seating area to the left (past the salad bar). There was also a loft area for seating but I think that is only used for dinner. There are great views from every table.
Once seated, it took a little bit of time for our waitress to arrive at our table. She apologized for our wait when she arrived. We had a voucher for two free glasses of champagne so we decided to use them. She returned with the champagne and warm bread (both were delicious). I opted for the «Waldorf Chicken Salad» while my fiancé had the «Chicken Shepard’s Pie.» I was shocked at the amount of food my lunch had. The plate was overflowing! My fiancé said his was just the right amount for lunch and a day headed back to the slopes. I was only able to eat half of my sandwich along with the meat from the second half, a few sweet potato chips (this made me sad as they were very good) and my fruit. The desserts sounded very tempting but there just wasn’t any room left.
Good food, good views, nice service and rather decently priced for the amount of food you get. We will most likely be stopping back in during our next trip!
