About Us

My husband and I ate here 2 days ago. We both ordered scallops and they were amazing.... very fresh and delicious! The waitress was also amazing! I had water and my husband ordered a Tennessee Old Fashioned. The bill was $100.00 which we were expecting. My husband left a 20% tip then realized there was a space for a kitchen tip. We are from Tennessee and had never seen this. Just be aware of this. We are still processing this.

First time visit for dinner and it was terrific. We ate outside which has great views of the ice rink and other restaurants and shops at Beaver Creek. Even in the summer a very active spot. Our meals were terrific especially the tuna as well as several of the rolls. Fresh fish is flown in every day and you can tell. Service was terrific as well.

Excellent dining experience. Vlad and all of the nice server team were amazing and so friendly. The oysters were so delicious. The edamame with hot sauce on the side was so good. Very shareable. My friend loved her Moroccan fish. I liked my ceviche. Manager was very knowledgeable about bourbons. Only kink was a not so friendly bartender. Oh well !!!!

We had a fantastic experience at Hooked!!! Date night at the outside table as we people watched in the cute city center of Beaver Creek. My coconut crested pow fish was sublime. The lobster roll wasn't as good, but the drinks and apps made up for it. Loved it!!!

Paul and Elizabeth were all business. Seated on patio but too cold and moved inside. Clam chowder too watery.. Hooked salad and salmon good. New Zealand Thai fish very dry but assured would be moist.

Yessss!!! Incredible menu! Great customer service! Great melting pot of seafood options you will not be disappointed! I got octopus toast delicious & the tacos were crunchy good! My favorite sweet potato fries with there sweet yummy whip omg you must try it! Definitely coming back & making sure my fam & friends come here it's a must!!

overall really good experience. my sister and i split a fish and had it prepared half raw and half cooked which was AMAZING. every single preparation was done to perfection and had a unique taste that was truly memorable. however, our server was a bit overwhelming. there was a woman shadowing him as she was a new waitress and he talked over her the entire time, even when she was trying to learn and ask questions and it honestly was very annoying. also just oversold everything and i felt like i was at a car sales place. nevertheless, food was great, high quality, very fresh.

I live at the ocean, and this was the best seafood I've had in the middle of the country. The staff was awesome, the food was delicious, and their mai tais are the best drinks I've ever had

We had a fabulous meal this evening with a party of 6. We decided our server would be our decision maker this evening. She put us on some delicious dishes this evening. One not to miss was the Korean beef bbq and believe or not the clam chowder was excellent. The sushi was on point and vey tasty. The house hot sake kept us wanting more. Well done chef and thanks for a killer meal.

Let's start with if you don't want to spend money, go somewhere else. It's Beaver Creek, it's sushi and there's a supply chain issue. You want great food, you need to pay for it. In the middle of nowhere and this place has excellent sushi (and seafood). It's a challenge to get a reservation here for a reason. They have a solid variety of fish well beyond the usual tuna/salmon suspects. Definitely check the specials.

Our favorite Beaver Creek restaurant. Always great food! Sweet potato fries are a must appetizer and my kids love the salmon.

We went there to celebrate my stepson's Birthday.
The food was good. They brought over a nice dessert to sing happy birthday.

We come to this restaurant annually and usually have a 5-star experience. Our most recent visit was less than ideal, but I think this was mainly due to the confusion around pricing for their "U-Call-It" Special.

Upon entering, your eye is immediately drawn to tables with a prepared and deliciously crusted fish that looks as though it simply swam out of the ocean and was flash fried on your plate. Naturally, we were eagerly curious. Our waitress was more than happy to bring out the fresh fish and explain the process of half going to the sushi counter and the other half going to be prepared to your liking by the kitchen.

She went through each of the market priced fish and explained that we would be charged $XX amount per pound. There was one particularly expensive Japanese fish, so we looked at the U Call It section and chose a cheaper amberjack priced at $40. However, our friends dining with us told us they had come earlier in the week and were explained the pricing but were shocked when the bill came and it was $700! The other couple had been warned and asked for the cheapest fish but they were also surprised when their bill came out to $360. The experience and quality I am sure worth the price, however clarity on the price beforehand would have eased my concerns just so we knew what we were getting into. We tried to order the $40 amberjack, but our server informed us that this fish was not eligible despite being in this section of the menu. It might be helpful to have a different section dedicated to this special to avoid any confusion.

Some other suggestions would be to possibly relocate the access to the wine cellar. It was located right behind our table in a narrow path and servers were constantly behind us retrieving wine.

Lastly, things seemed a little pricier than usual, but this is common for businesses trying to bounce back from losses during pandemic closures. Due to this though, I ordered less sushi than normal.

All in all, it was a good experience and we always love this place. The sushi is fabulous and even with higher prices, the portion sizes are almost comparable. I would still recommend this place to anyone visiting Beaver Creek.

We got the whole fish cooked the house way. It was about 4 raw dishes and the other half cooked fish. John was our waiter and he might be the best waiter we have ever had. My 15 year old son named him Big Baller John. Great food and great service!!

SUCH A COOL EXPERIENCE FOR THE WHOLE FISH‼‼ Our family of four ordered the 2lb of Shima Aji fish and they prepared it in 6 different ways. It was enough to fill us because we don't eat much but probably 1lb/person to be full. Quite pricy for a small 6 course meal, but totally worth it. Each fish you order has different prices per pound depending on the quality from $65-200/lb. would defffff recommend

This place seemed overwhelmed with dine in and togo customers when we walked in but somehow we snagged two seats at the bar after a ~20 minute wait. We weren't that hungry so we just got sushi and edamame- the california and rainbow rolls weren't anything to write home about but I *loved* my spicy salmon roll- so good! We had no idea about the whole fish experience here until we saw trays of fish being presented to various tables but a nice bartender explained it to us - sounds fun! Maybe we'll try that another time. Oh and they have a fun selection of mules- I recommend adding a Kentucky one, though!

Hooked provides the experience that most people wish they had when they first visited Nobu or other trendy Japanese fusion restaurants.

The funny part is we ended up dining at Hooked in Beaver Creek by chance. The reviews of this restaurant are, frankly, bad, and the only reason we ended up here was because they had an open reservation near 6 PM on short notice.

We were blown away by the selection, the service, and the whole fish preparations. We're critical, we're experienced, we've been around the block. Hooked was a consensus top ten all-time pick amongst my party of three.

We ordered oysters, caviar, two different whole fish, and fries. The bill, even with a half-bottle of Champagne and a bottle of sake, wasn't outrageous compared to any other high-end Asian fusion restaurant. It wasn't even our highest bill in Beaver Creek. It was our most memorable dining experience of this trip by a long shot.

I returned the next day for lunch and it was still great. The menu is puzzling, absolutely, but there are few seafood restaurants at ski resorts that even attempt to carry selections this broad.

The negative reviews need to be discounted significantly. While it is plausible that a few people got swindled by the expensive whole fish, you can look back through several years of negative reviews and realize that it's mainly people complaining about cancelation policies, the food being "expensive," or the unhelpful "bad service."

One of the few reviews featuring any real qualifiers suggests that Uchi in Dallas is superior. The funny thing is that I ate at Uchi in Austin with one of my friends I dined at Hooked with and we agree it was a "generic expensive Japanese restaurant."

If you are looking for a premium meal in the vicinity of $200pp+, this is it. Stop spending your money at steakhouses.

The whole fish experience was phenomenal!! Half the fish was made into sushi and ceviche.the other half was served "hot raw" with part miso glaze and part chimichurri. The entire fish was utilized. From the presentation of the fish choices to the way it was prepped was exciting and delicious! A true foodie must!! They recommend a pound and a half of fish per person but a 6lb fish did great for the 4 of us with a few other sushi choices from the menu. Highly recommend making reservations way before you plan to travel.

The Hooked burger was amazing. Especially after a day of skiing in the cold. Great drinks and service. The receipt includes a separate tip line for the kitchen. I like the sentiment. I had no clue what to tip for the kitchen, so I took my best guess. I think it's nice they are trying to do more for all their employees.

Sushi has always been excellent here as well. But the Hooked burger. Man. I'm hooked. It cost $29 but soooooo worth it.

Hooked had great sushi rolls. The staff was friendly and helpful with the menu. Drinks were yummy!

We had dinner here and the weather was perfect for sitting outside. Ordered the Hooked tacos and XTC roll with Gruet Rose. Jay was very personalble and our waiter Dan was a riot! We had his personality dialed in and played along with him! And Beaver Creek is just too cute 🙂

Had an outstanding bowl of clam chowder and the spicy Hawaiian roll yesterday. Perfect lunch. Funny to see complaints of prices....you are in the middle of the country, tucked up in the mountains. I would only pay top dollar for fresh fish when here....if you aren't paying top dollar where do you think the fish is
Coming in from? City Market? Do you really want to visit a cheap sushi place tucked away in the mountains? I'll be back today for more!

Great restaurant! Have been there twice during pandemic and they have provided an amazing save environment. Custom sushi member every night. The tiki bar outside has been a life saver!

A great place for an apres cocktail drink and appetizer after skiing in Beaver Creek. The bartender - Kelly - was amazing. She gave us great recommendations. For drinks, I would recommend the Mai Tai. For a snack, I recommend the Baked Diver Scallops - scallops wrapped in bacon with parmigiano-Reggiano cheese. It may be pricey, but we are HOOKED.

Great food, friendly staff. Go-to spot for date night in the Vail Valley.

Overall a wonderful experience. Excellent service. Drink/wine selection was first rate. Nice oyster presentation. My wife and I did the whole fish selection. Half of the fish was served raw and half cooked. Everything served was excellent.

Yummy food, pricey for sure but delicious. The different flavored sakes were a fun tasting experience. Service was great!

Great food and great service. This restaurant is doing a great job during COVID. Will be back again.

What a surprisingly wonderful meal! A lot of the bad reviews seem to be service related but people need to chill out with demanding what they want when they want it. The blackened salmon was awesome and definitely get a Moscow mule.

My dad loves this place and has been coming for years. I dont think of it as an apres ski restaurant, it is a reservation oriented restaurant where you should be prepared to plan ahead and let them know youre coming a few days in advance. When I went the food was awesome, the fish monger was very knowledgeable, our waitress was very friendly and helpful but didnt hover, the chef did a great job with our food and we had a great time!

people thinking you can just drop in- this isn't really that kind of place. just plan ahead!

We came here for lunch. Had the "flamin' hot" edamame which were good, but I would rate them as mildly spicy. The clam chowder served in a bread boule was nice.c largely owing to the fresh sourdough bread, which you can also get separately. We tried the spicy salmon, spicy tuna, and rainbow rolls. All were good, but got better in that order. I appreciated the lack of excess mayo usage that many mediocre sushi places abuse. Service was decent, though the sushi took a bit longer than expected.

One of the most memorable meals of my life! The 'whole fish' option was great from start--when the fishmonger showed us our options and carefully (almost lovingly) described each one--through all the attendant sashimi courses, to the cooked-two-ways finale.

We also ordered the XTC lobster roll and the Japanese root vegetables, which were both incredible as well.

I'm a stickler for fish quality, and this place delivers. Don't let the variety of creative rolls deceive you--if you know what I mean.

It seems that most of the negative reviews here are based on the price, and it might be fair to mark this place $$$$ instead of the current $$$. That said, the current star rating of this place is way too low, so I felt the need to add my piece.

Went last week for my fiancé's birthday and the service was great and really did make his birthday fantastic! Had the hooked tacos which are incredible. Several different rolls. The special roll of the day was made with a basil/garlic combo and was one of the best rolls I've ever had! All very fresh and unique. We also tried the daily sashimi sampler plate which was really fun to try a wide variety of fresh fish! $$$ restaurant but very worth the price as the quality of the food is top notch! Will definitely be back and the expansion of the restaurant looks beautiful. Hands down my favorite restaurant in Beaver Creek, Avon, maybe even the entire Valley!

The presentation, opportunity to have fresh fish caught for NZ and flown to BC and delivered with top service makes this a must for any trip to Vail, Avon, Beaver Creek. Sommelier is excellent and can guide you through a wide variety of cold sakes. Thank you Hooked.

This is one of those not to be forgotten culinary experiences. Cost is commensurate with that, but worth every dollar. Unique fish done in creative preparations, in beautiful presentations. Fun and delicious delivered with great service. Going back next time I'm in town!

I've eaten at hooked about four times and it's awesome. The fish is really fresh, especially for being in Colorado. I really enjoy having the whole fish in several different ways.

The Outer Range IPA - one of the best we've had!!! California roll and Caterpillar roll were both very tasty. We ordered the fish tacos and were extremely pleased.

Sarah was the most amazing waitress! Thank you so much for the best experience and food we have ever had! Sushi is unbelievable and oysters will also bring us back.
Thank you, Sarah!!

So. We walked up. Made our own spot at the outside bar. Basically, forced ourselves on them.

We're told the bar tender was going to need our server ever though there was a prison assisting the traveler next to us.

He (chance) told us he wasn't going to come to us we had to yell for him.

Bottom line: It was still a great experience. We give it probably a 90 to 95%. We ordered a recommended dish that had fois gras Which is what we wanted. Position at South had three items on it. The one we want to was the worst. It was dry and did not taste like anything recognized except for a piece of cardboard. nobody ever came and asked how it wasJust gave us a bill. Again. It all was still very good.

Awesome restaurant and menu. Loved it.
Think of a seafood restaurant with fresh fish served to order 8-9 ways and/or with combos of sushi and sashimi, plus killer house sushi rolls and an assortment of other non-seafood dishes. Dishes are plated with 5-star skill, flavors on point but in a more relaxed setting.
Knowledge of the fresh fish flown in daily is first rate and provided alongside recommended preparations.
When I eat out I want originality which is near non-existent with all the well known pop-out restaurants. This concept comes at a fair-value price and if this were my local restaurant I would be here every week.
Thanks Hooked for providing a dining highlight on my recent visit and one of the best dining experiences over the previous year.
