“The Flagstaff House is the place to go in Boulder for fine dining. First, the restaurant is perched 6,000 feet on the mountainside and boasts sweeping views of Boulder and the Colorado Front Range. The French-American, pre fixe menu changes daily (with the likes of beef Wellington with black truffle sauce) and is equally as impressive. Celebrity chef Chris Royster won a season of Food Network’s show “Chopped.” Then there’s the wine list, so long that it’s presented on a tablet. The wine cellars here hold about 20,000 bottles, making up the biggest wine collection in the state.”
