Lost Heaven

This tiny Thai/Chinese restaurant in Vail (Lion's Head) is a total hidden gem. With only about eight tables, it feels cozy and intimate — almost like you’ve been invited into someone’s home for dinner. So glad that we stumbled upon it! We were only in Vail for five days and ate here twice because it was that good. The Tom Yum Soup was the best I’ve ever had (and I live in the DC area, where great Thai food is easy to find). Every dish was packed with flavor and felt authentic and comforting. If you’re expecting resort-level ambiance and polished service, this isn’t that. It’s casual, welcoming, and all about the food. And the food alone makes it absolutely worth it — especially after a long day on the mountain.

The Thai food we had was amazing definitely a must visit. They have a wide variety of vegetarian options, and everything was very flavorful. This is the best Thai food I’ve had so far. Chef Daniel did an excellent job bringing out incredible flavors in every dish. Our server, Young, was very kind and took great care of us, especially with our vegetarian requests.

Aptly named! Its a heaven for Thai food lovers! Me and my friends ordered edemame, pineapply fried rice, spring rolls, drunken noodles! The staff is friendly and took care of our dietary requirements well! My friends are vegetarian and they were able to accommodate our needs. It was just 7 mins away from Lionhead parking. Had a fulfilling meal! :) will surely visit again!

Don’t get fooled by its name! We did not expect that having been able to have such authentic Chinese food at Vail. The owner and chef are so friendly and the foods are really warming and satisfying. Definitely worth another visit!

Lost heaven was actually so delicious! Was initially hesitant to try Chinese/Thai food, but this place proved me wrong! Had the papaya salad, Thai basil fried rice, and yellow curry. It was very authentic and filling! Big portions too and reasonably priced! Will be back :).
