We were seated in the lovely side room close to a warm & comfy fireplace. The room was beautifully decorated for the holidays. We love the little lamps on each table, making it easy to read the menu. We both had the delicious Ahi, which is out of the world so fabulous. It came with some delicious spinach and we asked for the baked potato, which is our favorite. Great service and we had such a wonderful evening there!

It has plenty of parking out front, my party arrived early and decided to have a cocktail at the bar as happy hour was running $8 cocktails. It was Thursday and the restaurant was only 20% full. Initially seated under a flickering light, but was moved upon request. The food order was taken promptly and the steak was excellent and cooked to order. I would go again, plenty of spacing, lovely ambience, excellent food, quiet and service was excellent.

I am totally biased as I may have been to Sundance over 500 times over the last 20 years, but this is the most consistent restaurant at which I have ever dined. The staff is incredible, the food is very good and the atmosphere is warm and welcoming. The level of care they have for their customers is really unparalleled! I am a big fan and hope all will enjoy Sundance too.

The seven course meal was quite filling. The duck was superb. We added the white truffle dish which was also excellent, but probably a bit more food than we needed.
