Reviews
Be prepared to pay slope-side prices for truck stop food.
I can’t quite wrap my head around the offense I felt at being served the following:
1. Caesar salad – old lettuce stalks, cheap store croutons, really poor presentation with minimal prep. The stalks weren’t separated. Just big chunks of white stalk. Green parts were wilted and tasteless. It was inedible. I overheard the table next to us draw the same conclusion.
2. Pappardelle with mushrooms and grilled chicken – sauce was good but clearly too tasty to have been prepared onsite, probably shipped to restaurant in a bag. Chicken was cold and pre-prepped. Garlic bread was clearly from a freezer and hard, not tasty.
3. The server was actively indifferent to who ordered what and where to place drinks or plates. This was across drink orders, apps, and entrees. Every single time the server put every order in front of the wrong person, even after guidance. Group of 4 people, not hard if you’re paying attention. This server was not.
I saw the manager running around but she didn’t bother stopping by our table, even after I sent back both dishes 2/3rds uneaten, hence this review.
So for unappetizing entree and a truly inedible Caesar salad, a nonalcoholic beer and several glasses of water, I’m out of pocket around $80. No tip.
This restaurant deserves to be shut down or overhauled, or both.
DO NOT ENTER.
For breakfast they have an amazing selection of breakfast food (hot and cold) including southern favorites like shrimp and grits!
Overall an excellent venue!
For example, we had been skiing all day and we were parched. We were served small glasses of water which we instantly drained, but they were not refilled. We finally asked for a pitcher of water since none of wait staff was coming to the table.
The food took a loooong time which was surprising considering the place was mostly empty.
Our server asked if everything was good when she served our meals and I made one small request. She forgot.
Terrible value – decent food but high price and bad service. $65/ person for our party of 6 and we did not order multiple drinks.
Chet’s Bar and Grill was an easy option since we were staying at Huntley Lodge. Just keep in mind that it’s not going to be the most affordable option in the area. We were in town celebrating my husband’s birthday so we weren’t as conscience about the hefty price tags as we would normally be. The restaurant is nice without being overly fancy. There were some people who were dressed up a bit and others sporting their comfy sweats.
Our server for the night was Aspen and she was very sweet and attentive.
Now let’s talk food. The mac and cheese was good but way too much to spend on a small dish if you ask me. Nothing over the top about it unless you consider gruyere and truffle bread crumbs worth $19. Don’t get me wrong, it was tasty, just not worth spending as much as we did.
My husband ordered the ribeye and it was cooked perfectly at his requested medium rare. He was obsessed with the Huntley butter and kept raving about how much it helped elevate the dish. The asparagus and mashed potatoes were perfect compliments. Our only complaint was the edges were a little too charred for our liking. It overpowered the steak a bit.
I had the braised short rib with absolutely zero regrets. It was tender and flavorful – hands down my favorite thing of the night. The sage honey carrots were a great touch and if I could have finished the whole dish, I would have! The portions were great.
The cheesecake was light and fluffy. Very likely a no-bake cheesecake if that’s your thing. I liked it, especially after a hefty meal. But my husband on the other hand loves a dense cheesecake so this was not his jam. The huckleberry topping was a nice touch.
Our bill (including the tip) was a whopping $200. For decent food + a couple of hot apple ciders, it’s not my first choice. We likely won’t be back unless we really want another short rib.
Wood was great the host was amazing he brought chocolates to the table for kids and he was a rockstar when it came to
Making last minute reservations.
The food was great service wasn’t awful sure we had to remind the waitress a few times for things but it was busy. We eat fast and the entire appetizer and food took an hour and 50 mins to get through.
Solid offering for this area will return.
