The experience of riding a gondola to the top of a mountain to have a drink with a friend in a lounge is pretty awesome.
What's not awesome is the audacity of this place calling their dinner "Chef's Table." For anyone unfamiliar, a chef's table is a private dining experience that allows club chefs to showoff their culinary skills to members in a more intimate environment.
What you're actually getting, for $45/person, is essentially cafeteria quality food in a buffet format with everything congealing and cooling under weak heat lamps.
When we arrived, I was surprised when our server said "just grab a plate and enjoy." Do you guys not know what chef's table means? Even on your menu you're intentionally misleading people into thinking this is a dinner menu with full service like a standard restaurant.
But whatever. Fine. Expensive, but fine. My wife orders a beer. I order a glass of wine. The server informs us they're out of some of the beers and basically all of the wine. I end up with a beer. Ok.
I figure, we're still having fun. We're celebrating her birthday and let's just make the best of it. So we try the food.
Maybe the price point and false advertising literally put a bad taste in our mouths but we gave it a shot. The pasta was lukewarm to cold. The tomato sauce was generic and tasted store bought. The fettuccine Alfredo was so cold the sauce was congealing and curdling. Delicious.
The brisket (?) was cold somehow and dry from sitting under a heat lamp. The bread was hard as hell and like chewing through beef jerky.
Everything was caked in salt. Not, like seasoned or anything. Just salt.
There were (clearly frozen) egg rolls with a drizzle of sauce that was sitting on the table next to them labeled Private Selection which is a sauce you buy in Safeway.
Point is, it's a criminally overpriced, misleading, Golden Corral buffet on a mountain. Just go there for the ambience and drinks, and save your cash for a McDonalds down the street.

Don't waste your time and money. Had to buy Gondola tickets separately. Most of the food was cold. The wait staff wasn't attentive at all. I was extremely bummed out as this just turned into frustration and over all disappointed from the time we arrived til we left.

On a whim we made reservations for Christmas Day brunch. We were not disappointed! The selection of food items was awesome - from basic brunch fare to chicken Parmesan and Beef Short ribs. The staff was welcoming and friendly. Ambiance was lovely and who can argue with the view! Highly recommend even for a nice lunch during a ski day!

Our experience was fabulous! The staff went out of their way to make sure we had a great time. We had a large group with allergies and their attention to detail to cater for this was suberb! The food was amazing, as were the drinks and the ambience! What a great place to spend a Christmas Day away from home!!!!!

Not worth the money! Christmas Eve buffet was $110 per person and was mediocre at best. For having as small of a selection as they did the price was not worth it. They also did not communicate at all. You were not aloud on the gondola until close to your reservation which meant we stood in line for 30 minutes and was told we couldn’t go up until our time.

Very expensive for what you get. Buffet style. Food was average. Carving station meats served cold. Went up early to enjoy the bar but there was only one bartender. It took 20 minutes to get a drink. Its always fun to eat on top of the mountain. I would suggest the Thursday-Saturday happy hours instead.

We were at The Lodge for the special Christmas Eve dinner. The small buffet was terrible, unfortunately. Food was not labeled, cold, and simply a tasteless mess. We had a hard time distinguishing the fish from scalloped potatoes. The wait for the gondola in the cold was annoying, especially considering the staff was late. The service was absent. Definitely not worth $600 for 4 people.

Mostly good, but when you have a reservation at 630 and don't get seated until almost 7, with others showing up that had reservations after you and getting seated before, it didn't make for the best.

Christmas Eve Buffet, 300$ for three of us w/2 glasses of wine total. Food wasn’t bad but wasn’t anything to write home about. Staff was ver friendly but seemed a little overwhelmed. Seat cushions need some serious work.
