    Great food and experience. We were seated and there was some delay in taking a drink order but the restaurant bought our round without us raising any concern about the delay. First class. The food and cocktails were great.

    Four of us shared a number of appetizers and small plates and they were all delicious. Croquetas, a board of jamón ibérico, lobster bisque, oysters, etc. Very laid back atmosphere and good service. No surprises, the way I like it.

    We had an amazing celebratory birthday dinner in one of their beautiful greenhouses. Snowy peaks in the background, good lighting, great ambience and the absolute best service by Will. Thank you, thank you, thank you!

    Excellent food and service! We started with the wild mushroom croquettes, then my wife had the whole roasted branzino and I had the poached salmon. All dishes were outstanding! About value…it’s resort pricing, so, you just have to deal with it. Value compared to other options in the town or on the mountain was probably above average.

    Thank you David! We are elated to hear you and your wife had a wonderful evening with us, until next time.
