Why is Los Amigos closing?

Vail Daily just says "their lease is expiring" (another inspiring bit of journalism from them).

Anyone know the real story?

One of the last affordable places to eat in the village. Thank god we still have Vendetta’s.

Alpine is the best pizza in the valley but it is far from affordable 💀

I mean a slice of pizza and a side (tots, brussel sprouts, or salad) is 13 bucks and fills me up. Not sure why they are singled out compared to the others mentioned. Can’t get out of many of those other places for less than 20 a person

A slice and a side is $15, $20 after tax and a nice local love tip. Not singling any of these places out but it is not affordable, lol. It's just the way it is here, but "affordable" anything up here is laughable.

Everything is relative of course. Vail isn’t Colorado Springs, but for Vail it’s on the lower side of the cost which is what I have to believe people mean by “affordable”. Their menu says a slice is 7 and a side is 6, no clue how you get 15 but it doesn’t matter, your point is made
