The Tunnel

AThis cozy restaurant was such a great experience for our party of 10 in the greenhouse room! Each course was incredible and they were able to cater to our vegetarian and gluten free guests. Cannot recommend this place more! 10/10

Enjoyed the Northern Italian sixth course menu over Valentine's Day weekend. From the moment they called our names until the end of the night when they let our party explore the space, we had a magical time. The service was phenomenal, the food was delicious and the experience was truly unique.

The space is tiny, so I would make a reservation and be prepared to make new friends.

Wow, is all can say from start to finish. From the text with our secret password and the location to enter, to the passion of the chef and lead server, to the welcoming bubbles and the stunning, to the cozy outdoor seating and if course, the delicious 6 course meal that made nearby Allred’s look like a total rip-off! This was a night to remember and if you think of food as something to be enjoyed and if you think of “dining” as a form of entertainment, Chef Mark and team very much hit the mark! Bravo and was a highlight of our trip. Can’t recommend it enough! Just a small taste to show you the deliciousness and beauty of what to expect.

Amazing, intimate experience! Great speakeasy style concept for a quaint town like Telluride! The South American menu courses and wine pairings we had were delicious! We made friends with everyone at the table! Talented chef and team!

I took my parents to dinner here and our meal was AMAZING. My folks were totally blown away by the service and intimate setting, and the food wowed all of us! Mark the owner/chef gives the experience a true personal touch and makes The Tunnel a unique experience for Telluride and not to be missed. We went for the South Western American theme, and I'm hard pressed to say which of the five courses was my favorite, though the scallop/shrimp combo and bison sous-vide were soooooo good. I'd be remiss if I didn't mention that the cocktails here- no exaggeration- are probably the best in town. Kyle our bartender handcrafted each one with ingredients such as fresh-pressed blood orange juice (YUM). Each cocktail is specifically crafted and made for each entree to bring out the unique flavors of both the food and the beverage- seriously so tasty. We got a sneak peek of next week's Italian theme dinners, and at this rate The Tunnel might be a weekly thing for me.
