Bowtie Pasta

“We had such a great experience at Stein Eriksen's that we ate there two nights in a row. To start, the decor is Alpine, a perfect fit overlooking the slopes. Scott, the host, greeted us so warmly and checked in to make sure everything was going well. Its team members like this that create an experience that is memorable! They were absolutely booked on the holiday weekend, but service was seamless. Mark and Tim were both attentive servers and knew the menu well. The Alpine inspired menu was delicious and fitting for the setting.“

So one had to go in for the food and we had to eat outside. The food truck on the other side of the sky bridge had a good selection, reasonable prices, and plenty of picnic tables to eat at“

“Stopped into The Iron Pig Smokehouse and had a pretty good experience overall. The service was friendly and attentive, and the food came out quickly which is always a plus. You can tell they take pride in what they’re doing.

That said, while everything was cooked well and presented nicely, the food could use a bit more flavor and spice to really make it stand out. It’s good BBQ, just missing that extra kick that takes it to the next level.

All in all, still worth checking out—great atmosphere and solid service, just hoping for a little more boldness in the flavors next time!“
