The drinks are superb, the bartenders are amazing, and there's no better spot to unwind after a day on the slopes.

Unfortunately, the at-table menu doesn’t offer the onion rings I wanted to try based on other reviews, which is a bit disappointing. Additionally, the outdoor service seems a bit disorganized. My initial server mentioned he had just switched sections, and it took some time to get a new server. When we did, he was attentive, but the food runners kept asking who ordered what. It might be helpful for them to implement a better system to indicate where dishes should be delivered.

However, I did find the service to be rather slow during both of my visits. The bar had a decent selection of drinks, including a variety of beer, wine, and spirits, but I ended up having to make separate trips to order drinks because of the delays at our table. I highly recommend the nachos; while they are the priciest item on the menu, they offer more than enough for two people to share.

Inside, the atmosphere was vibrant, resembling a lively sports bar. Our waitress was friendly, but you could tell she was quite busy, so she was not around very often. We had a small mix-up with one of our drinks, but everything else was good. The nachos were exactly what we expected, and the beers were just what we needed. If you're in the area, I wouldn't hesitate to recommend stopping by for some après-ski fun.
