My daughter and I stopped here for an early dinner after enjoying the afternoon on the mountain. Kerry, the friendly host, seated us promptly. Krystal, our server was phenomenal! My daughter and I split the Fig Flatbread, the Chili, and the Fish N Chips. We were hoping the AMAZING Chicken Tortilla soup would be served today but it was ham and potato (we don’t eat pork). We enjoyed our dining experience and will return the next time we go up the mountain!

For years, we’ve longed to visit the mountains, but my old vehicle made the trip challenging. Now, with time on my side, I finally headed back to Mount Charleston. I used to love sipping hot cocoa at the lodge, but since it burned down, this restaurant was the best nearby option. Before going, I checked reviews, and something seemed off about the mixed feedback. Still, I convinced my wife to join me for a Father’s Day dinner to see for ourselves, and I’m glad we did.

Upon arrival, we found plenty of seating and a cozy, relaxing atmosphere. The hostess seated us by a window with a stunning view after swapping with another couple. Our server, Nick, was exceptional. His attentive service stood out, not just at our table but with other guests too. Despite some reviews mentioning slow or inattentive service from staff, our experience was flawless. I even observed other waiters and didn’t see any issues.

Nick recommended a unique starter, the Crispy Artichoke, which was absolutely delicious. We ordered two alcoholic drinks and our meals, and everything arrived perfectly timed. The food was flavorful, with generous portions we took home. My wife’s dish was packed neatly, and Nick even included extra ranch dressing for my salad.

This visit exceeded expectations. After yearning to escape Las Vegas’s 113°F heat, this charming spot was the perfect retreat. We’ll definitely return soon for another quick, delicious getaway. Thank you!

Update: we e come up a few times from Las Vegas, NV to get away from the city, and our initial review is still spot on. Thank you!

We sat in the bar area, not the restaurant and wow! From the food, to the service (DERRICK), and atmosphere, this place was top notch on every level. We intended to sit in the restaurant but the music, vibe, and view of the bar area was more our style.

Chili and Wild Shroom Melt were amazing!! We also ordered the “Retreat Coffee”… Derrick made them soooo good!!! We will be returning to the bar area for sure!

5 stars for the stunning mountain location and views, but only 1 star for the Christmas buffet experience. On December 25, 2025, we paid a very high price for the holiday buffet expecting a special, elevated meal at this beautiful spot—and it was a huge letdown.
The food was not fresh at all: several dishes tasted and looked like they had been sitting out or reheated for hours, with dry textures and bland flavors. The presentation was terrible—everything was messy, trays were nearly empty most of the time, no clear labels, and it all looked carelessly thrown together. This doesn’t come close to justifying the steep cost.
In a place that promotes itself as “the most authentic wintertime destination in Southern Nevada,” we expected at least some quality and attention to detail for a festive holiday buffet, but it felt rushed and low-effort. The price simply doesn’t match what was delivered.
Sadly, we won’t be returning for the food, though the hotel and surroundings remain gorgeous. I recommend skipping the buffet and just enjoying the scenery—or trying the regular a la carte menu if available.

This restaurant charges an unlawful service fee at the end of the bill and it’s NOT shown anywhere in their menu for the consumer to understand what they will finally be paying. It’s a “mandatory” and unlawful surprise fee that hits the consumer financially as it’s not possible to determine a transparent cost for eating at this place.

The service provided by the server was unacceptable: The wait time of 15+ minutes to just be acknowledged was so unprofessional, the wait time of 1+ hours to serve the food was a poor experience with food already cold and not fresh was an obvious red flag.

Finally, the rudeness of that waitress, demanding that their surprise fee, for which I’m really not receiving ANYTHING in return, be paid as if that was part of the menu that we’re able to taste or enjoy. It turned out that apparently, it was readable in a small fine print that they were able to show us from a different/secret menu (the menu shown to customers, in the image below, never displays additional charges.) that we were never shown during the time there.

I have filed a report with the regulatory authorities (FTC’s Consumer Protection Bureau, OAG of Nevada and The BBB) for this unlawful and shady practice and I want a complete refund to my account for the unacceptable service that I received.

We visited this restaurant while staying in the cabins a few miles up the mountain.
We called in to ask about waiting times while they informed us that they are only having people come in until 7.30pm as they close at 8pm. We arrived at 7.10pm, the hostess checked her phone (the time) and made a comment how “you made it just on time”. Lovely start to our dinner.
Thankfully we got a waitress whom was very friendly and informative.
She gave us recommendations on kids’ meals, entree portions sizes and what wasn’t available (a lot).
The venue had a beautiful setting, but besides our waitress and the great setting, the positives stop there.
The food is VERY overpriced concession food, everything tasted as it came straight from the freezer and out of the microwave. My husband was excited to try the “Beast Burger” (big game meat) but it tasted like a typical frozen beef patty for $30, the chicken sandwich was very dry for $20, and the kids Mac and cheese tasted like it was out of the Kraft box. The old fashioned was good but a bit too sweet. Their water tasted exactly like melted snow from outside, not even joking.

We understand that it might be expensive to run a restaurant up on the mountain but the food quality did not nearly hit the expectation from a $110 bill.
We probably should have listened to the reviews..

Just avoid this place unless you are going for a drink or two.

Me and a friend went to this restaurant for dinner. I’m going to be honest, don’t order the steak sandwich. They charged $28.00 for it and it’s 90% fat and not steak. The portion size was small. They cover it in two different cheeses to cover up how poorly this steak was cooked. I’ve had better steak sandwiches at Area 15 .After having an empty stomach after eating this horrible tasting steak sandwich is the very reason why I will never come back. If you plan on dining here don’t order this steak sandwich at all. You will be leaving disappointed and hungry like I did. Worst steak sandwich ever.

It’s a decent place to grab a bite after an afternoon of hiking. Service was alright and the food is not bad but we were served cold fries. It’s just nice to get away from the Las Vegas heat and enjoy the nature and not have to cook . The portions are big so you’ll likely have leftovers.

Everyone that worked there was so kind and very attentive. As for my lunch I had order a BLT and I can honestly say that my bacon taste premade it wasn’t fresh and hard to chew on. Luckily the french fries were so soft and tasty.
