I was quite underwhelmed with the whole experience. The food was okay. Portions are decent and will fill you up but it is bland. The food is entirely overpriced for the quality, but I justify it due to location. The servers weren't kind, but also not rude. It took a while to get seated and they were inattentive throughout. I don't blame the servers entirely as they were busy, but definitely not crowded. It was all just meh and a 2.5 rating in my books.
I was surprised to see the Sidewinder had a 3 star rating. This is a great little bar for breaks between runs. The staff is friendly and welcoming, the food is decent (try the chili and jalapeno poppers). Sure, it used to be cheaper, this is a ski mountain and running the place isn't cheap. If you think it's expensive, feel free to go up to Breck, Aspen or Vail and compare prices.
Food was delicious and the service was good. We had to wait a bit to get seated, but we're still in a pandemic - so it's totally understandable! We love skiing at Monarch, and the Sidewinder Saloon is a great place to get a bite.
