The service was excellent. The ambiance was like going back in time 100 years. The food was good, but a little over priced. I would plan on making an evening of this place as each meal comes with palette cleanser fruit cup or tomato juice, rolls, salad, full side, and dessert with entree.

This gem takes you to a time of years passed. The ambience is wonderful. The food is delicious and fair priced. The staff was attentive and kind. Their Christmas decorations were incredible. One of my husbands and my favorite local restaurants.

This is a quaint location! It feels like walking into a home in the 1850's, but it is fine dining. The oatmeal pie was fantastic and the candied apple was quite the surprise! The staff were friendly, calm, yet funny. We had a good time and can't wait for the snow to go away so they are open more often.

Nestled next to the wall of the Ogden canyon it's a surprisingly elegant place to dine. It has a great atmosphere with quite jazz playing in the background and very nice dining areas. It was a full 4 course meal with a starter, soup or salad, dinner rolls and cinnamon rolls, entree, and a good selection of dessert. The food was good, especially the cheddar potato soup. The halibut was well seasoned and not overcooked. I would say the prices are on the lower to mid range of what I am accustom to for this level of dining. 27 for New York strip and halibut. The service was outstanding. Not only pleasant, but if we had a need it was addressed before we could ask.

The food was delicious, but what made this place extra special was the kind and attentive staff and their 1930s formal ambiance (think Titanic dining room) building tucked away within Ogden canyon. We took my 92 year old grandma and she accidentally spilled her small cup of honey mustard on her plate. Our wonderful server overheard her saying how much she hates honey mustard... Well, without even being asked, she came over to our table and offered to replate everything so the sauce wouldn't touch her food. Really, really really, wonderful staff. A wonderful gem in Ogden canyon to eat a very nice meal!

The drive here is beautiful. The location is outstanding with a stream by the parking lot. Building is full of charm and history. Our server, Jody, was amazing!!! We ordered zucchini appetizers, dinner was prime rib and NY strip with grilled shrimp, with choice of fruit cup with raspberry sherbet or tomato juice, salad or homemade soup, baked potato. Desert was cranberry apple crisp...you could taste the cinnamon, hint of tartness from cranberry and vanilla with ice cream, last desert was brownie ale mode . Let's not forget the rolls and cinnamon rolls too. A must visit, with a repeat visit in our future. Amazing!!

This place is a hidden gem. We are so happy a good friend recommended it. This is a true 5 course meal and well worth the price. I had the halibut and it was AMAZING. My husband had the filet and it was tender w great flavor. The cinnamon rolls were great, the husband got a 1/2 dozen to go.

We stayed at the Alaskan Inn 2 blocks from here and everyone couldn't stop reccomending this place a 5 course meal 25-35 a person and made from scratch with fresh local ingredients. Its well worth it and ask about the story of the place it just adds to how amazing that place is! They do take reservations but we didn't have one. They heard it was our anniversary and put candles in our desserts. We had like 3-4 waitresses always making sure we were good. This place truly is a one of those hole in the wall treasures and we will surely be coming back with friends and family!
