“ We had just returned our rented ATV following an all-day excursion on the Alpine Loop. It was pretty late, and there wasn't much open. We had seen this restaurant before, but weren't in the market for food. We were that night. I had the Angus Burger, fries, and a drink. The burger and fries were great! The wait staff was attentive yet patient, while we put off ordering. All around, it was a great experience. ”
