We've stopped by before for the bar where we had some Aspen Punch (which did, in fact, pack a punch) and some Chicken Strips and those were a hit, so we decided to stop by again. The Bearclaw Martini was delightful, they really know how to make a great drink. For food we both got the Chicken Asiago, flavors were great, though the dish was a tad oily and a bit on the heavier side, but heated up well and was delicious. The pretzel bites were very well made, a bit sweeter than what I'm used to, which I actually really enjoyed. The bread and butter was absolutely fantastic. Would recommend it, I might stop in on an occasion for a drink at least.

The staff here is pretty good and greets you as you walk in. Our waiter was good as well. The inside fits the name of the restaurant as there are a lot of animals on the wall. The food here was pretty good and cooked as ordered. The pretzel bites were some of the best I had in a while. The bread was good with some of the dip they serve it with. The flavor of the burger and lamb chops were good. The fries we well seasoned and crisp. The only issue with the food was how small the burger was. Other things I saw, there were a few stans on the wall, and I did see a gnat flying around near my table.

The atmosphere is awesome and the servers are nice. A bit slow to help you though. 20-30 minutes in between table visits despite only having 3 or 4 taken tables. Bread is good too. But you guys have been open for 21 years and still don’t put any seasoning or butter on the vegetables or food in general? The food is edible but, not trying to sound rude at all here and I apologize, even microwave meals taste much better. My grandparents took us here for Thanksgiving for a couple years in a row and I have always been disappointed. There’s no flavors on anything. Even if I add salt and pepper, it’s very clear that the vegetables are just boiled and dropped on the plate. The celery seed dressing for the salad is delicious. But I think you guys could really level up if you would just start seasoning the food and putting some love into it. Even the apple fritter just tasted like warmed up apple slices with graham crackers crumbled on top. My salmon dinner was supposed to be “salmon with sun dried tomatoes, herbs, basil, scampi butter…” sounds good, right? But it tasted like unflavored salmon with wet pieces of spinach on top and a little hint of lemon. Maybe it’s just because we only come on Thanksgiving and the cooks are rushing to get plates out. I do appreciate you guys being open on Thanksgiving and making an accessible way for people who can’t cook at home to be able to celebrate with family. My grandparents are getting old and can’t cook for us anymore. But I really wish I would have just stayed home— I would have been much happier with McDonald’s.

I went to Aspen’s for a group party in one of their reserved rooms.
Their club sandwich was delicious, and it came with French fries that had a great seasoning and perfect texture. The poppy seed garlic dinner rolls were mouth watering, I could have eaten a whole basket by myself!
Servers were attentive and friendly, and the host was great too.
