Because of its remote location, there aren’t too many affordable restaurants in Telluride. But there’s certainly enough to get you by, especially if you love pizza. Brown Dog Pizza in downtown Telluride is a locals hotspot, so you can expect a lively scene, great Colorado microbrews on tap and tasty pies. Cocina de Luz is another local, downtown hangout and a well-loved Mexican joint. The veggie tacos come highly recommended. But for a reasonably priced, more formal dining experience, head to Honga Lotus Petal. The Pan-Asian menu ranges from sushi to Thai and Vietnamese, and entrees average $22.
