3/1/25 took a break from skiing. Decided to try the Bistro at about 2:30 pm. The pace was disgusting. I had bad vibes from the start. Line was short when we ordered. ( you stand at bar order/pay, bring a number to your table and it will be brought out to you) my husband ordered a beer as well we sat down at a dirty table because it was the only option, no one came to clean it, ok fine no biggie ( about 4 other open dirty tables around us) food and trash all over the floor. After 45 min we finally got our food, the condiments we ordered and paid for did not come. I immediately noticed and asked the server, she never brought them I had to ask her TWO more times in her passing. My husband never got his beer. The waitress said we should have got it at the bar and there was nothing she could do about it. We tried to speak with someone at the bar but there was a long line by this time of people ordering and no one else around, I finally interrupted someone ordering and the bar tender was VERY rude and grabbed the beer can off the counter (sitting out for over 45 min at this point) and said I sat it right in front of him. We didn’t know you get it when you order your food. And we were literally sitting at a table right in front of the ordering station at the bar and not once did she think maybe I should bring this to them…? The ‘smash burgers’ were not smash burgers, barely covered half the small bun and a couple bacon sprinkles. Very disappointing! will never return. Ivan’s cafeteria food is a much better bet.

I was so happy to get a DELICIOUS and healthier option here! This was the chef’s special. The grape leaves and hummus were especially fantastic. I wish they had this on the menu all the time! Throw in some grilled chicken and it would be perfection!

We went here for dinner after checking into Cedar Village and we’re pleasantly surprised. The food and service was great despite being petty empty when we she tried there for an early dinner.

Me and my grandpa were going to go to the lakeveiw dinner, but it was not open. But we are so glad it wasn’t because it caused us to come to the Bistro! They have delecious food, and the whole staff is very kind. They rolled out the red carpet for us, we felt like celebrities! Overall a great place to come and enjoy your lunch!

We visited this lounge Friday March 7th, 2025, in the afternoon, for a break while skiing. Only one other family was there besides us. The senior bartender woman was condescending and rude. Why is this woman in the service industry, she’s miserable? Besides an attitude adjustment, she should know also, it’s rude to refer to guests with terms of endearment like “sweetie” and “honey”. So unprofessional.

The pickles were less than adequate. About 3/10 on the standard pickle scale. Extremely disappointed, because I heard good thing about the pickles. All pickle lovers, I don’t recommend sucking on these pickle.

Bit pricey because it’s part of the ski resort, but service is always great and drinks are always good. I haven’t tried eating here yet. I’m usually just stopping for a drink to warm up and you can ski over a bridge to get here from the hill and ski right back to the lift!

It’s a joke. More like a cafeteria. No barstools, so I wouldn’t call it a bar. No skier charm, food sucks, overpriced, forget about service. Just a completely lousy place.
