   My wife and I drove over 2 hours to have a nice thanksgiving dinner with Snow Bird Mountain Lodge, it was extremely amazing and entertaining. Beautiful atmosphere with beautiful views. The staff and management were great. I didn’t want to leave, but unfortunately we didn’t have an overnight bag .

   So disappointing. Waited 45 minutes after our reserved time. Only upon asking when the we'd be seated, I was told everyone had already been sat and it was first come first served. Complete mess. No one in charge. No one filling in the people waiting what the delay was.

   We are so thankful that such a wonderful restaurant like this provides such a wonderful ambience in our area here in the mountains. We loved the ambience and the wait staff was very good. The salads, soup and bread came right out but we waited a significant amount of time for our dinner. The host comp'd us with a few glasses of wine to help. We will return since this is such an amazing location with a very neat bar by the fireplace in the den, hoping this was just a ticket mix up in the kitchen.

   We sat at a table for two in the bar near the fireplace which was very nice and quiet. The service from Robert (for the two evenings we were there) was exceptional-he was attentive without being overbearing and offered excellent recommendations when it came to drink orders and wine pairings. The food was phenomenal which was a wonderful surprise considering how remote the Lodge is-the first night we both ordered the trout which I am still dreaming about! The four courses were consistently great both nights and the offerings quite extensive so kudos to the owners for hiring an excellent chef and kitchen staff! I would rate our total dining experience five stars and would return again to the Lodge based on solely on the meals & service!

   My husband opted for the additional $25 for a ribeye. Definitely not worth it. It was very thin and tough. Our first meal here that was disappointing.

   Snowbird Lodge presents itself as a fine-dining experience but I'm afraid to say it is not - and with some exceptions, many of the meals were poor. I believe that there is a lack of skill in the kitchen. They served a breast of duck where the meat was nicely pink but there was no searing on outside at all such that the skin was flabby and the fat beneath it was unrendered. It was clear that many the dishes had been left under heat lamps or similar resulting dried out sauces and dehydrated fish. I think the breakfasts were well below the standards of roadside diner. The list goes on: both undercooked and overcooked vegetables, devilled eggs served as hard boiled eggs halved with salad cream on top and no spices, and worst of all was food served on chipped plates. On Saturday night we were lucky enough to be staying in the lodge when they held one of their 'Wine Dinners'. This was a great idea and works really well to sit on a table with other guests you do not know and enjoy a lovely meal and lots of fine wines. The Lodge brought in a guest chef to cook for this meal and, for me, that is where it all went wrong. Mussels served with a huge piece of toasted French bread that was impossible to eat delicately, steak tartare served on a potato base that was tough and dry and the same duck cooked in the same way as above.
