Great spot in the early summer. The outdoor garden is fantastic. The food is really good, certainly worth the visit. This was the best place in steamboat for breakfast. We tried 4 others and we returned here.

Quaint little garden home with thoughtful bites and creative coffee and cocktails (proof and zero proof). Got the smoked trout Benedict and it was yum! The cinnamon toast crunch latte was special, too!

Delicious food! Presentation of our food was beautiful! Very nice atmosphere. Friendly staff. We will definitely eat here again when we are back in the area.

Delicious and carefully sourced. They have a full selection of cocktails that they make with or without alcohol. Food was very good. Their veggie burger is made in house which is always a plus. Very tasty! I started with the Bok Choy Salad and had the veggie patty with the YVK burger fixings with the Orange Julius 0-proof cocktail. Staff was great!

Finally, I got around to having a meal at the Yampa Valley Kitchen, and what can I say? I am impressed. YVK has this wonderful sunny ranch house vibe that welcomes you into its well lit dining room. The staff there were amazing and very friendly. Their menu reminds me of upscale home style cooking. Everything is made from scratch and is peaced together wonderfully. I had the potato chips and onion dip as an apatizer, and it was wonderful. It reminded me of having that as a snack as a kid. For my main dish, I had the Muther Klucker sandwich. The chicken was cooked perfectly, and the combination of sauces and topings gave the sandwich completely that I got to enjoy even after I was done with my bite. I particularly loved the suttle sweet spicy that lingered between bites. All in all, I highly recommend stopping by. It’s a great place to eat. Be warned you are looking at the higher end for prices, my non alcoholic drink, app, and meal came out to be about $50. I would definitely say the food is appropriately priced as it is clearly hand crafted.

Great food, service was a little slow – but it was busy/crowded for Sunday brunch, and the atmosphere was cozy. This restaurant is located in a historic house, which gives it breakfast at grandma’s house vibes.

I wanted to give Yampa Valley Kitchen more stars, especially because I love its sister restaurants (Mambo and Besame). However, the food was not up to the standard of the other restaurants. All of the potatoes we were served (in the rosti, the home fries, and the side of french fries) were overcooked – not exactly burnt, but so overly crispy that there was no moisture left. Very disappointing.

We went there for our special night out. Food was good to excellent.

Brent Holliday

Had eaten here previously and it was ok so when We had visitors from out of town ( 5 of us in total) and Tried 2 days in a row to dine there. 1/2 hour delay the first day so we decided to eat elsewhere , no problem they were busy so we understood. The 2nd day Sunday at 11AM we checked in and the Host said “ for a party that size it will be AT LEAST 2 hours” seriously??? It was not that busy (no cars out front and two empty tables on the patio). nor was it like we had a bus load of people, it was 5 of us. We will not bother trying again even if it is just my wife and I.
