Well worth it! Amazing cocktails, their mezcal margarita is divine. We got the truffle fries and I was not disappointed! Can’t wait to come back on my next ski day.

Snowbasin advertised their fondue for weeks on their website. The advertising was better than the “fondue”. The main ingredient to the fondue was missing “cheese”. Brian Corey.

Cinnabar is so boujee. For the same price as the cafeteria, you can eat good here. It’s my favorite option at Snowbasin. Located inside Earl’s Lodge, it’s gorgeous. There are fireplaces, golden chandeliers and delicious drinks. Salads great. The kids pizza was disgusting, like cardboard. Y’all need healthier kid’s meal options not dipped in grease. Besides that, it’s nice. Overall 85% Nice place to grab a drink on the mountain. Try the winter mule. Improve the menu

Snowbasin never disappoints in ambience, views, and service, but... the food continues to be bad. So sad. The Mountain Morgue event was a great idea; very creative, fun to be a part of, but that food tho... never good, any season.

I was able to preview their new Halloween pop-up bar The Mountain Morgue and it was incredible! Best haunted bar in the Salt Lake City area. The cocktails are all made with real ingredients and nothing artificial.
Afterwards they have a Haunted Forest at Haunted Basin and Earl’s lodge is like a Haunted House. A great overall experience 🎃

This place is magic. Highly recommend. The food was amazing. Our server, Ian, was outstanding. He really added to our experience. The views are like a postcard. I can't wait to return.

We enjoyed our food, time and service. I still feel like it's a little on the expensive side, but I went in expecting it, so I guess I knew what I was getting into. There weren't any surprises and cost is clear upon reservation. The whole experience was to expectations.

Done the Sunday brunch several times and it usually doesn't disappoint. However, this time around I found the prime rib and pork tenderloin very salty. Service was great and offering good.

Beautiful setting and lovely experience. Just a couple quirks - the price of the gondola ride is factored into your brunch fixed price. It would be nice if they could decouple that or make a discount rate for pass holders. Servers are very nice and good but have to cover a lot of tables and you are left waiting for a while for beverage requests. Is it that big of a deal to let someone get Eggs Benedict with an heirloom tomato on the side? Apparently at Snowbasin it is, the tomato is reserved for only Eggs Benedict Florentine and the chef would get in a lot of trouble for giving you a tomato at a buffet brunch?!

Worst brunch ever. Lines at stations too long to wait. Food old or cold. Price was insane. Tram or not, service was slow and forgetful. Did not replace silverware had to keep asking. Server Seemed too hurried to even get everyone's drinks or bring creamer for the coffee. Eggs Benedict was disgusting. Barely steamed eggs in a shell with iced down hollandaise is not the same as a poached egg. Pastries were obviously from a package. Gross. Totally disappointing. Don't bother. Take the tram up and pack a brunch.
Service was great! Food was cold on several items such as the Spinach Frittata, Prime Rib and potatoes. The waffles were yummy and hot. It was a nice experience just wish some of the food wasn't cold.
Over all we really enjoyed the experience. Our only real complaint that set the mood for us was waiting to be seated. We showed up on time not at all late and waited for quite some time. We noticed another couple being taken and seated prior to us. We inquired about it and was told their reservation was before us. Come to find out they had been very late and we were punished and made to wait despite their lateness. Doesn't seem right or appropriate to seat late customers over ones that showed up early and on time and made to wait. Aside from that I suggest making the mimosa flights stronger as there was little alcohol to them. I'll just pay for champagne next time and add my juice. Additionally maybe there should be a dress code implemented. Some people really didn't get the memo for the environment and brunch setup. Thank you for listening to my advice and opinions on my experience and my husbands. Planning to do brunch again next month.
Expensive for menu offered. The food was cold. Coffee was cold. No one seemed to care about food temperatures. This was our first time to do brunch up at snow basin. I always heard great things. It's a very Expensive deal very disappointed in food quality
We were expecting Grand America food experience for the price. We were disappointed. Don't have 2 o'clock reservations available if you're going to run out of food items and if there are available, they may be cold. Crab was watery. We had to sqeeze out the water before eating it which negatively impacted the taste. It was a nice portion for the price if it had tasted good. Jonny at the omelet station needs training. Omlets should not be hard on the outside from over cooking. The cook before him came at shift change and was having a fit because the station wasn't to his liking and couldn't cook until he was satisfied with the arrangement. We walked away. Be sure you read the menu before ordering specialty drinks. They may not be to your liking and they are expensive to have melting on your table. The Wait staff were courteous, helpful, and made us feel welcome. Fresh plates should always be available, and dirty items should be bussed away out of site, not stacked around the bar area. We I called with concerns about the lower event, I was assured there would be parking in Lot A for Brunch guest but when we arrived no spaces were available. The gate ticket taker gave my guest a hard time when they wanted to get to the gondola but were told they would have to buy a ticket to enter. At the top gondola ride down at 3:45 , the attendance were in the booth talking and looking at a phone, not helping older guest into the cab.

The whole experience at the brunch is phenominal but the setting, food, and view standout. We were disappointed in the service. We sat at the table for a long time before a server arrived and he only came back a couple of times. I think his job was unfair because he seemed to be running all the time and had to care for people at other tables that were not near us.
