Ownership of the restaurant at the Aspen (Colo.) Golf Club is changing hands. Beginning this spring, Shlomo’s on the Green will become Red Mountain Grille, which will be owned and operated by Jamie Ramey and Rich Burbidge, the current managers of the restaurant.
Steve Aitken, Director of Golf, will propose a five-year lease for the Red Mountain Grille at half of the cost of Shlomo’s rent, which was $20,000 a year.
If approved by the Aspen City Council on March 24, Red Mountain Grille will pay $10,000 a year.
The reduced rent will allow the new operators to extend the hours of operation, which has been a bone of contention with golfers who have complained in recent years that Shlomo’s on the Green wasn’t open often enough.
During the golf season, Red Mountain Grille will open at 7 a.m. instead of 10:30 a.m., and also stay open later into the evening. That means breakfast for early-morning golfers and additional bar service. The menu won’t change much and neither will the prices, which average in the $10 range.
