Summit, The Broadmoor

Summit, a Forbes Travel Guide Four-Star Restaurant, brings chic American cuisine to life with a seasonally shifting menu. We had the pleasure of dining here for dinner during our stay at The Broadmoor.

Summit sources fresh, local ingredients from their very own gardens and a network of passionate farmers for an experience that's exceptional yet familiar. We were seated in the main dining room and our server Roxanne ensured we had everything we needed while we dined. Roxanne was fabulous - she built rapport with us and created a memorable dining experience. She had a deep understanding of the menu and wine knowledge to recommended pairings based on the dishes we ordered & our preferences. She embodied all the grace & professionalism of dining at a Forbes Travel Guide Four-Star Restaurant.

The Roasted Garlic & Gruyère Cheese Soufflé was made with Tuscan Kale, Roasted Garlic, & served alongside Stone Fruit and Pueblo Chile Jam. The airy soufflé had a rich, warm flavor from the gruyère cheese and roasted garlic. The kale balanced out the richness of the cheese and garlic with its earthy flavor. All of this was delightfully contrasted but the sweet tang of the jam.

The Golden Beet & Tangerine Grain Salad was made with San Luis Valley Quinoa & Ancient Grains Tabbouleh Cara-Cara Orange & Beet Gelée, & Walnut Praline. This salad's presentation was lovely. The combination of textures, from the crunchy praline to the chewy grains and the smooth gelée, added a layer of interest.

The Steak Frites were topped with Chimichurri, Herb Beef Jus, & served alongside Summit Fries. The steak was well-seasoned and cooked medium-rare. The herb beef jus was rich and added depth to the steak (it was also great to dip the fries in)

We wanted to pair the steak with glasses of red wine and Roxanne had stellar recommendations. I had a glass of the Obsidian Ridge, Cabernet Sauvignon, Red Hills Lake County, California 2021. Ross had a glass of the Château Labastide Haute, Malbec, Cahors, France 2021.

The Pan Roasted Verlasso Salmon was topped with Salmon Roe, Lemon Butter Sauce & served alongside Charred Rapini, & Autumn Vegetable Gratin. This was our favorite dish of the night. The salmon was flaky, buttery, and cooked to perfection. The lemon butter sauce was indulgent & creamy - it really enhanced the flavor of the salmon. The salmon roe that was in the sauce popped in our mouths adding a brine and texture variation we loved. The vegetable gratin was a comforting, delicious side.

For Dessert we had the Banana Chai Sphere made with a Dark Chocolate Dome, Cake Croutons, Caramelized Banana Vanilla Chantilly, Vanilla Ice Cream, & Chai Anglaise. This was an interactive dessert and the chai anglaise was poured over the sphere right at the table.

Big thanks to The Broadmoor, Summit, Roxanne, Krista Heinicke, & Rebecca Manrique for hosting us!
