Puerto Morelos Restaurant Review

L'Oazis (lllll)
Rick and I found a wonderful little restaurant in Puerto Morelos. L'Oazis (http://www.loazis.com/) has lovely owners who wait on tables and create a welcoming atmosphere. The food is truly delicious and the prices are nearly inexpensive. We loved it so much, we went back the next night. Our favorite dishes were shrimp sambuca (shrimp in cream sauce) and grouper (in white wine and lime sauce). The linguini with clams and shrimp was tasty too. If you are ever in Puerto Morelos, you must stop here for dinner.

Colorado Restaurant Review #2


Pepi's (Vail) llll - Mom and Dad went to Pepi's after I left. They LOVED it. Mom said it was the best trout she ever had. Dad's dinner was good too. Service was fine.

Colorado Restaurant Review

Lancelot (Vail) llll - We loved Lancelot. The prime rib was excellent! A nice thick cut, cooked to our request, every bite very tasty, and oh so tender. The tomato salad with feta, basil, and balsamic was wonderful. And my mom liked her fish too. The downside - noisy, crowded, and the wait staff kept bumping our table as they went by.



Alpen Rose (Vail) lll - We also loved Alpen Rose. Cute and quieter outside dining. Less crowded (although we were there on a Sunday night, and all of Vail was quite deserted.) Bavarian-style food was very tasty. Osco Buco had good flavor and fell off the bone when I touched it with my fork. Dad liked his Hungarian Goulash but said it was a bit too spicy. And again, mom liked her fish. (Mom, add a comment so we can learn more about your fish!)


Ore House (Vail) l - We did not love the Ore House. The service was poor (no salt/pepper, bottled beer served without a glass, no bread plates, and some other stuff I can't remember.) The food was not good at all. My crab cakes looked like they were frozen, Dad's whiskey rib eye was tough with not good flavor. I think it was the first time I saw him not eat even half a steak. And mom ate about two bites of her chicken, which looked like it had a can of condensed soup dumped on top of it. The only good thing about that place was the location, and that was only if you could get a seat on the deck.


D-19 (Aspen) ll - This place was OK. Good service, nice outdoor seating and an interesting menu with lots of things to choose from (I almost tried the pea ravioli.) Mom and Dad both tried the chicken salad, which they both though was good but not the best ever, and $18 seemed high. I had the Angus burger ($15) with cheese, bacon, and grilled onions. It was very tasty, but I had to eat around the raw part - I ordered it medium. The fries were excellent.
