Tipsy Trout 7412 Mountain Road, Stowe, VT 05672

"Been here a few times and don't think it's worth the bad score. The menu reads well and is interesting - the taste and freshness back it up pretty well. I'm highly spoiled so I could pick it apart but I think it's nice to use the valet service and go there for dinner and drinks - very simple and a nice hotel."

"Best food we had in Stowe, super fresh, good mtn vibes, great service."

"We were here a few weeks ago for our engagement dinner while staying at the spruce resort. We had a great experience when we were one of the three tables there for dinner on a Saturday night. We went back after a day of skiing for a 5:30 reservation on Dec 24th for two. The hostess sat us at the bar top that seated 4. I quickly asked the hostess if we could be seated at the booth instead of the uncomfortable high table. She quickly rejected us saying that it was already booked. The table we were at (against the wall) rocked excessively, after getting annoyed I asked if we could swap the table that didn't rock with the one we were sitting at. We did it with our server's assistance when we both saw rotting french fries and chicken tenders making the table rock. Instead of cleaning it we just ignored it. My guess is that it's still there. The food was over priced, but I get it, it's resort food. No complaints on the food. We got the beet salad, oysters, quail, buns and scallops. What bothered me the most was that by the time we left 7:15, the booth we asked to be seated at was full. I really wanted to make this our easy stowe couples restaurant with things like tipsy tea. Instead, we will keep looking. They validate your parking for 2 hours."

"I can't rate the food because we left about 10 minutes after sitting. The atmosphere is terrible; too bright & cafeteria like. There was 1 person at the bar, but it took at least 5 minutes before the bartender acknowledged us. And the prices are outrageous. $35 apps. $17 5oz glass of wine when the bottle sells for $10 retail. Plus $15/hr parking. We were prepared to spend a bit morning knowing it was a resort based restaurant & we understand mark up, but pay more to get much less...nope. Much better spots in Stowe to spend your money."

"Interesting Dining experience at the Stowe Mountain Resort. An unique atmosphere with the bar as the focus point. The table had two different heights of seats, the wood-stuhl facing the wall was higher than the bench facing the bar. We had no idea why? However, the dishes we ate were fantastic and tasty."
