Deer Valley Resort: The Mariposa
Reviews
We came here with our friends on the last night of our stay in town, they very kindly treated us to an amazing meal it was awesome but the service was the greatest of all, outstanding and we were so looked after. Thank you for making our last night stay very special
Our New Years Eve experience at The Mariposa...Food was above average, but the server had no business working a high end restaurant. He poured bottled water into my wine (that was over 2/3 full), then charged us for it. The topper...at the end of the meal he spoiled the marriage proposal that was supposed to occur but didn't (up to that point). What an imbecile. We should have stuck with our original reservation at Chimayo. Half the price and better food and service. Now engaged and atleast have a good story to tell.
Revisited in February 2013. They have reduced meat portion sizes to 2.5oz. Appetizers are also smaller than previous years. Although the quality is still excellent, the value for money has decreased. You will not have leftovers from this restaurant, unless you eat like a sparrow.
fabulous food in beautiful surroundings. make reservations far in advance! kobe beef carpaccio appetizer was a bit tasteless despite the presence of truffles, with minute slices of beef. for entrees i recommend the bison medallions and lamb enthusiastically. service bordered on obsequious but the deer valley denizens seem to like it that way. next time i will try the tasting menu. server very knowledgeable about wines and offered good advice.
Food is excellent, service can be a bit spotty at times which should not happen at the price point this establishment charges.
