The menu was not what we expected. Nothing to really grab. We are at the food trucks instead
We had dinner on the patio to enjoy the wonderful view! Service was top notch as was watching the sun set behind the trees. I ordered the filet mignon skewers with green tomato kimchi and peanut gremolata. This was amazing!!! I’m not a kimchi fan but our server assured me it was pickled tomatoes but not kimchi, per se. She was right!! Served on a bed of lettuce, it was wonderful!!! However, this is a light meal, just right for how I was feeling but plan on a starter or desert if you very hungry or a big eater. My wife ordered waffles and chicken. Let me say, wife runs a B&B and has a reputation for making delicious breakfasts. So, when she says the maple pecan butter waffles (a special) were amazing, you can trust it to be true!!! The chicken was crispy if a little bland/under-seasoned but both dishes were 8 on a scale of 1-5. We’ve decided to stay at the resort a couple days so we have an excuse to come back soon!

Bear Creek is a beautiful venue and our server was very nice and attentive.  the food is good. The menu definitely could use some help. Some strange items on there and nothing for those who prefer a plainer meal.
I visited this restaurant for the first time along with a friend on a pleasant summer evening. It is a part of a ski resort and has beautiful views. The way to the resort is gorgeous as well. The staff are friendly and welcoming. We wanted to check out the outdoor dining space as well as the indoor dining room before we decided where to be seated. They did let us take a peek and decide. Though the view outdoors was gorgeous, we decide to dine indoors because it was still a little warm that evening. They have a lovely ambiance. Our hostess was friendly and did not take long to get our drinks. I did not like my first drink which was Raspberry Limoncello. She said they could not replace it but she arranged for some lemon juice for me and that did help make it a bit palatable. My friend ordered Lavender Haze mocktail and it was good. I ordered spicy margarita as well and it was just ok. The complimentary breads arrived soon after. They were fresh, warm and delicious. We tried the fried Brie and totally loved it. I can go there again just to have that. I tried rabbit legs for the first time. I didn’t like the meat as such but their preparation was really good. I like how they combined different ingredients on the platter. The jerk chicken was good too. We were too full to try any desserts that day. Hopefully, next time.

Not worth the money. They have a filet salad that had some sorta meat on it totally overcooked. We complained and received another order to replace hers. We tried to make the best of it, but the damage was already done as she ended up eating it essentially by herself.
As usual, the service, the food, and the drinks were wonderful at Bear Creek. The only downside to this particular trip was we were in the main dining room of the grill and there was a party of about 30 people behind us maybe 25 people. They were outrageously loud and Not too considerate of others around them. None of that was Baer creek's fault. I will continue to go there.
We were a very disappointed in the menu options. We we're there last October and everything was fantastic. Unfortunately it seems the reduced their menu options, removing some of the best and our favorite dishes, leaving a menu with very few options. Some of our party had difficulty in finding something that they would like and had to settle for a meal that was more of a default option than what they truly wanted. This seems to be a trend in restaurants lately and it is sad. The food we did order, the service, and atmosphere, however was good. I just don't know if the price for a higher end restaurant like the Grille is worth it if you have to settle for a meal that you really didn't want because of a limited menu.
The service was wonderful—we received complimentary champagne for our anniversary, and the staff was very kind. Unfortunately, our entrées arrived just two minutes after the appetizers, so we felt rushed and couldn't enjoy them. We both ordered the prime rib dinner, which came out cold and extremely chewy. Sadly, neither cut was good. We finished with the crème brûlée, which was runny and had a burnt top instead of the usual sugary crisp. Since we got married at Bear Creek, we were hoping to make this a yearly tradition, but we left disappointed and likely won't return.
This was the second time we've dined at the Grill at Bear Creek. Staff is very friendly and attentive! We will be back!
Our wedding anniversary is the Fourth of July. We always take the time to have a good meal to help celebrate. We have eaten at the Grille on a number of occasions and decided to wait until the Sunday after the Fourth. My wife and I decided to get the Sunday special of Prime Rib. We started the meal with French onion soup, which was great. The main course arrived, and after the first bite, I realized it was cold. My wife also tried hers, which was also cold. I tried a spoonful of mashed potatoes, which was also cold. We caught up with our server, who, by the way, did an excellent job. She apologized and returned the platters to the kitchen. She was obviously embarrassed. They replaced the steaks on both platters with fresh cuts that were warm. The potatoes and vegetables were still cold. Neither one of us was in the mood to make an issue, and again, the server was gracious. I felt that if I were paying over $100.00 for a meal, a manager or even a chef would bail out the server. Nope, crickets!

Service was extremely slow we were promised water multiple times and it was about 45 minutes till water was served, drinks were very slow how was the delivery of food. Waitress was charming but not enough to make up for the substandard service. With a limited menu you would expect service and timing to not be an issue
-$12 for a cup of French onion soup.
-$17 for a smoked old fashioned that tasted like a pallet fire.
-$0 for bottle of water clouded with old smoke and detergent.
Save your money - don’t come here.
Used a Clip coupon for half off second entree. Manager said he knew nothing about it and then said it applied only on Tuesdays if you had kids. What?? Coupon said nothing about that! Waitress came back and then said they would honor it. Got bill and were charged $14.00 for 2 cups of coffee each. I guess they had to make up the half off entree money! I dont think we will go back!
The food was spectacular. Amazing flavor and amazing food prep. Wait staff was friendly and the whole restaurant was amazing
I was pleasantly surprised by how satisfying the meal was. The food was flavorful, well-portioned, and fresh.
The prices are very reasonable, making this spot a fantastic value. Perfect for anyone looking for a delicious meal without breaking the bank.
The staff was friendly which made the whole experience even better. Highly recommended for a casual, affordable bite that doesn’t sacrifice on taste!
