"the other couple with us went to dinner and hope for a good band to listen to. we got a great dinner and had lots of fun with the others who were partying and dancing the night away. The food and drinks were great and the band was over the top. If you are in Estes Park. CO go and have good food and a great time."

"My husband and I had lunch on the patio. We had one of the specials. We felt like we had refried beans heated from a can and leftover pulled pork in our enchilada. It was dry and tasteless. The scenery was beautiful!"

"Service was slow. Food came out fairly quickly, but we waited 35 minutes before anyone even spoke to us or lit our. Was unimpressed with service and how the restaraunt functioned. The saving grace is the food was cery good. A little salty on the vegetables, but other than that good. I have been several times and I felt like the ambiance was not as great either. Not sure I will go back. A bit of a frustrating experience."

"This was our first visit to the Chalet. We were not approached or welcomed by anyone at arrival; we had to go to the front desk to find out how to get to the Chalet. Your reviews suggested a romantic, intimate setting with beautiful views. Walking through a congested and noisy restaurant to get to the Chalet didn't set the stage very well even though the atmosphere in the Chalet was pleasant.
The food was only fair; the New York strip was grissly, the potatoes lukewarm and the vegetables were half mushy and half uncooked. My favorite dessert is crème brulee and I was very disappointed in the quality of your fare.
The server was pleasant but I had to request water twice and we were only one of two couples in the restaurant."

"We sat for 1 hour 15 minutes before we even got bread on the table (and only because I asked the water boy). When the food finally came, the salads and appetizers were served at the same time, and the main course came out about 2 minutes later. It was a serving disaster. When I made the reservation I said that we were celebrating the 20th anniversary of our executive director. It was never acknowledged. In the end they someone came out and said they were taking 20% off the bill, but when we received the actual bill they had not done it. Overall disaster!"

"My Wife and I sat next to the Big west windows while it was snowing, what a beautiful view! Along with the excellent service and awesome food it was a special night to remember for my wife and I. The wine list is endless, after dinner we went in the tavern which had a live band playing and was a great way to end the night! We'll be coming back this summer to dine out on the deck!"
