The Mitchells pay homage to more than 30 different cultures with their eclectic menu, which was developed by a team of chefs and has rotated seasonally since the restaurant opened in October 2019, Matthew Mitchell said.“[Our] food philosophy is to take traditional dishes from around the world and then modernize them,” Matthew Mitchell said. “We feel like that's been our sweet spot—kind of this balance of foreign and familiar.”
What's special about it?From the far east, India and Africa; to Europe and the Mediterranean; to Latin America and the Caribbean, Traveler’s Table features cocktails, entrees, small plates and desserts from all over the globe.

One of Thy Mitchell’s favorite dishes is the Singaporean soft shell crab, which she said perfectly encapsulates the concept of taking a traditional dish and translating it for a Montrose audience.
