E3 Chophouse - Steamboat Springs

Really wonderful space with great food! The Elk Pasta was 10/10 with a surprisingly large portion of meat, and the mushrooms were fantastic. It is on the pricier side, but 100% an amazing special occasion dinner.

Perfect food, staff was beyond friendly, and the view is unbelievable, great spot for an outdoor dinner during summer and nice and cozy inside for winter. Will certainly be going back.

We came in to have a light bite and a few drinks. Loved the vibe here! Our server Kevin was personable and a great source of info. I had the beef carpaccio (one of the best I have ever had! and wedge salad. My husband had the jumbo shrimp cocktail and a Caesar salad. Perfect meal for us. Bonus that they donate a portion of proceeds to a E3 Ranch Foundation . A great restaurant with a social conscience.

We just celebrated our 1 year wedding anniversary at E3. We have really only ever came in for Monday night unlimited crab legs (which is always great), so we were very excited to get some delicious steaks and cocktails here. As locals, we normally celebrate special occasions at Cafe Dive, Primrose, Laundry, Tahk, Beseme, etc.. We were unfortunately VERY disappointed... we ended up spending over $600 on some of the most worst/bland steaks and sides that we've ever had... I will say that we started with some great cocktails and the beef carpaccio with fresh shaved truffle($35 extra) was phenomenal.. but being a chophouse, I would have expected exceptional steaks, and that was far from the case. Not only were the steaks extremely below par, my husband got a 1/2 lb crab leg add-on which for MP ended up being $75 which absolutely blew our minds considering it was the Monday night unlimited crab legs night and that is only $40.. so how the hell should a couple crab legs be twice the price of unlimited crab legs...?! Aside from the money aspect which we would have no problem paying for if the food is actually worth the price... Our service was great, our waiter was awesome and even brought us champagne to start the meal as they knew it was our anniversary. To end the night we were brought (again) the most bland creme brulee we've ever had, there was next to no flavor. I'm normally not one to complain, this was just SO surprising and unfortunate that I can't not share our experience. Super sad to say but we will not be eating dinner here again other than crab leg night. We were excited to possibly bring our friends that are visiting in a couple weeks but that will definitely not be happening. I would have MUCH rather spent $600 at Cafe Diva ANY DAY or honestly anywhere else. I'm feel bad to have written such a review as I do not like to complain.. especially publicly and especially about a local spot that we usually like. But last night was so unfortunate.

Service and atmosphere were fantastic. Waiter (Matt I believe) was top notch. The only thing keeping this place from a 5 was all of our steaks were undercooked. We asked for medium and all were rare.
