Cloud Nine Alpine Bistro Aspen Highlands

"If your Aspen ethos is to go big or go home, well, Cloud Nine is where you go to achieve that. The cabin, nestled mid-mountain on Aspen Highlands, is known for its raucous champagne-shower lunches where Veuve Clicquot is shot out of spray guns while a DJ blasts and strobe lights flash. (Seated inside? You might want to bring a change of clothes.) Oh, the fondue isn’t half bad either." - Elise Taylor

"As the Swiss discovered long ago, there’s something about fondue and mountains that just makes sense. Cloud Nine Alpine Bistro is pricey, but nowhere else in Colorado replicates the homey spirit of the Alps quite like this. Stop by for lunch or go all out with a snowcat dinner." - MATADOR_NETWORK

"Heard by the off-key belting out of 'Sweet Caroline' at Cloud 9." - Travel + Leisure Editors

"Don't be deceived by its appearance as a sweet little cabin perched on a mountain—inside, things are raucous as can be. This Alpine-style restaurant is worth visiting at least once, if only to bare witness to the wild, apres-ski scene. (Pro tip: Just don’t wear anything you wouldn’t want completely drenched in champagne.)"
