This is not our first trip here. We are always very happy with the service and the food. It's a nice quiet setting with plenty of cocktails and wines to choose from to go along with your meal. The sea bass and risotto was cooked to perfection, as was the Veal marsala.

The food was spectacular. I have never had a bad meal here. We did 2 anniversary parties for my parents her and the food and service is always excellent. Our server was so sweet and she didn't rush us at all. I highly recommend the Chalet.

It's a solid meal everytime. It's not fancy or extravagant but they do a great job with their food and cocktails

We had an excellent time. The service our waiter gave us was wonderful. He had an excellent sense of humor. I had chicken Murphy and a salad. My date had beet salad and escargot and scallops. The dishes were very good. We took home leftovers. I recommend this restaurant highly. Thank you.

The Mountain View Chalet is absolutely fantastic. Demos and Jimmy treat their guests like family, and the food is superb.

Desserts are the bomb. Marsala is divine Salads are top notch, sometimes it depends on who is the kitchen , some nights it's just Good good, but some nights it's as of someone working magic back there.. on those nights the food is DIVINE!

Everything was excellent. Food, service, value. Been trying to get back here for 25 years since the days of the seafood buffet. Will be back more often for sure.

As usual, everything at the Mountain View Chalet was excellent. We were celebrating our 39th Anniversary and my parents' 67th Anniversary. We were seated quickly and a lovely table. The wait staff was attentive and always checked to see if we needed anything and our food was delicious! My mom and I had the Filet Tenderloins Diane special and the meat was so tender and the sauce was amazing. My dad had the Lobster tail which he really enjoyed and my husband had the Chicken Benny which is his "go to" dish whenever we go there. Of course the Tartufo for dessert is always a hit. It's our #1 restaurant for special occasions and it never fails us.

We had our first visit to the Chalet and were very impressed. The food was delicious, and the service was terrific. We went on a Thursday night, and the place was packed, so we were glad we made a reservation. The portions were good and appropriate. The bread was warm and delicious. We will definitely go back!

Stick with me. There's a lesson here. Any Kitchen Nightmare fans? There's a couple of old old old episodes of that remind me of this place. Stay with me. There's one where the restaurant is jn an old church and they serve an early bird buffet that attracts a much older crowd. There's another episode where the restaurant is set up as fine dining - with prices to match - and the executive chef is cooking a bunch of old school dishes with cream sauces and odd ingredient combinations that call to mind the highfalutin recipes of yesteryear. One look at the lunch crowd and the menu of chicken dishes with strawberries in sauce (???) and I just knew Zaddy Gordon had to be in the kitchen calling someone a donkey. Still there? This was a work holiday lunch with folks who'd been here before - I let them lead the way and got to try some things I'd probably pass on. We had some shrimp and avocado thing as an app - I wouldn't order it because I'm tired of getting pushed around by Big Avocado - but it was really good. The veggie spring rolls were good too. Some of my colleagues were all in on chicken and shellfish dishes (and the people who got the chicken and creamy strawberries cleaned their plates so what do I know). I went with one of my faves - chicken Caesar wrap with fries, side salad, Diet Coke, and a glass of sangria. We had one server for our party of 18 and she was fantastic. Another person kept our glasses full. Good to know: -The place is huge. Multiple dining rooms, bright, open, and airy. Did not expect that from outward appearances. You tell me chalet and I'm expecting a mountain cabin and Switzerland on the other side. -Great seating. We were there a couple hours and I felt comfortable the whole time -a bit pricey on the dishes but work was paying so I noted it and kept it moving So what did we learn today kids? ::cue sitcom learning a lesson music:: Don't make ageist assumptions - I really enjoyed the intergenerational vibe of the dining room and was secretly envious of the leisurely lunching monied crowd and want that for myself in a few years. Or tomorrow. Choose something reliable as your main dish, and be a little more adventuresome with appetizers. You may be pleasantly surprised. Try new to you restaurants. We grew up on chains (I'm 100% OK with that for many reasons), and it's always fun to discover a place I ordinarily wouldn't give a second thought. *no pics as I'm a professional by day and I was sitting across from my boss.
