    Don’t get the salmon unless you like it very well done. Order wine or beer. Mixed drinks takes a long time. When making a reservation request by the window.

    Our entrees (filet and duck) were pretty yummy, especially considering the remote (near but far) location. Nate was personable, attentive, and engaged. While busy, we did not feel rushed. It was a busy day so we got to parking lot about 2 hours earlier than our reservation time to make sure we weren’t late. We had a wine by the waterfall while waiting to board the tram. It’s a unique experience to take the tram up for dinner!

    The dinner view is spectacular! Whether you dine while the sun is still above at 5:00p, or dine post sunset with the starry sky straight ahead, beauty abounds at all hours. Chef John has a wonderful, friendly, and attentive staff. If you are celebrating a special occasion, it will not be overlooked! Over our visits we've had the Salmon, Filet, Ribeye, and my favorite, the smoked gouda pulled pork macaroni and cheese. The specialty cocktail list is expansive, as well as the wines available, followed by the dessert menu. Be sure to reserve your table in advance, especially during peak season!

    If you are dining and don't mind paying a little more this is your answer. The other options are cafeteria flavored and this gets you a great view at most tables. Serving sizes are large so be ready...coffee is really solid! Enjoy...
