    My second breakfast there with the girls! I always get the oatmeal, served in a beautiful copper Pot of course, and a side order of sausage. YUMMY. Friends have ordered the eggs Benedict, the omelette with sausage, and today toast with arugula and feta. Nothing left on any plate . Delicious. Not crazy about the valet at $10 since I’m eating in their restaurant, but whatever.

    Great experience. Family dinner for my daughter and son in law's birthdays. Ate outside in one of the chalets. Beautiful setting!!!! Everyone should do it sometime. The drinks and food were wonderful. Kids enjoyed the non-alcohol drink choices. Food and drinks were all very good. Our waiter, JD, was very attentive and professional. We are coming back in February with some friends!!

    We had a great business meeting in an alcove for 8 of us. Gregory, our waiter extraordinaire was wonderful. He was not only able to accommodate but also was able to suggest incredible options for some of our guests who had dietary restrictions. They were from out of town and were absolutely wowed! Thank you for always being on point. We can guarantee our teammates and clients a fantastic meal in a great setting that is centrally located. It’s a win all around. Thank you. We truly enjoyed our experience.
