Warm rustic restaurant with indoor and outdoor seating. Menu includes American dishes, beer wine and great cocktails. I love the mango margarita. Strong and tasty! The upstairs that is shown in the picture is 21 and up and has more of a bar feel. The downstairs has a cozy, rustic casual dining. Whenever we have guests traveling with us, we bring them here, and everyone loves the food.

Our favorite pizza restaurant on the mountain. They serve pizza pies and by the slice. Menu also includes salads, calzones, and pastas. Best to go and order at the counter for take out. It gets very busy on the mountain on the weekends and a lot of times restaurants won't answer phones during peak hours.
