| - Our group stayed at The Resort and we had lunch and breakfast at this restaurant downstairs. It wasn't busy when we were there so we pretty much had the restaurant to ourselves. Though this place needs a paint job, I still give it 4 stars after having a horrible dining experience at The Lodge further up the hill.
For lunch, I had a buffalo meat burger and french fries. I decided to try something different from what I had on my first visit here. I've never had buffalo before but my burger came out nice and I love their fries. Our group ordered one of each dessert on the menu: carrot cake, bananas foster, chocolate cake, bread pudding, cheesecake and creme brûlée cheesecake to share. Everything was swimming in whipped cream. We had extra slices of cheesecake since our server said she couldn't get that perfect slice. I particularly enjoyed the bread pudding. I liked our server. She was quick, attentive and actually talked to us.
We had a few drinks at the bar last night. I had a seasonal German brew (forgot what it was but it wasn't Lobotomy Bock) and peppermint schnapps. We had one of the best bartenders in Vegas. She made perfect drinks. Two people from our group were raving about the Cosmopolitans they had.
For breakfast this morning, we had the place to ourselves again as we got there as soon as it opened at 7am. I got the Whole Mountain Skillet (3 scrambled eggs, bacon, sausage, tomatoes, peppers, onions, cheese and seasoned potatoes) with a side of sourdough bread. It was huuuge but I finished it.
This place is as good as it gets in Mr. Charleston. It would not be fair to compare it with Vegas restaurants...c'mon people, get real!
