    The service was fantastic. However, the food expectations were not met. The prime rib was horrible chewy probably the worst I’ve ever had there. I’ve been to the summit house many times and know the owner personally. I think they just got bad prime rib that’s why they even discounted it, but it wasn’t worth the money paid for. But the ambience and the other meals were fantastic.

    We took the last reservation of the night - 9 pm - which proved not to be a good idea. We are regulars so know it was not up to par. Our bread were all ends of the load - likely typically used perhaps for making croutons and the entree look a bit “tired.” The waiter asked if we were there for a special occasion - which we were - but then never acknowledged it again. We were charged an additional plate fee even though one of us ordered soup and salad and tge other a main entree. This has NEVER happened before - very disappointed overall as this is our go-to celebratory restaurant.

    We had an amazing dining experience at Summit House! The food was absolutely delicious, with generous portion sizes that left everyone at the table more than satisfied. Everything we ordered was flavorful and beautifully presented. The service was equally impressive. Branden, our waiter, went above and beyond to make our evening special. He was incredibly attentive, hospitable, and genuinely kind — you could tell he truly cared about making our experience great. Summit House is also a fantastic spot to celebrate a special occasion. We were there for a birthday, and the atmosphere, service, and food all made it feel extra memorable. Highly recommend this place — we will definitely be back!

    Summit House was a very pleasant atmosphere! We enjoyed the prime rib special, however I wasn’t a fan of the horseradish, was too strong for me. Furthermore, I ordered an Espresso Martini but it was straight up vodka. I didn’t finish the drink and asked them to take it back but It was still on the bill sadly. Otherwise everything else was delicious. The Sampler dessert was a nice way to try all of the desserts but I wasn’t very impressed. All in all, a good experience for a relaxing outdoor meal.

    I had the Skuna Salmon which was prepared very well and was served on a bed of spinach along with rice. That along with the house salad made it a wonderful meal

    Summit never disappoints. Food and service were excellent. We were there for a 48th anniversary and they made the experience memorable.

    My wife and I came here for our second anniversary celebration. We were not let down from what people had told us. We will definitely come back. We had a great waitress. Food was spectacular. The sea beans were new to us. We felt at home.

    Restaurant was packed on a Sunday eve. Service was very good, including valet, greeters, waitstaff and assistants, all were excellent . Main dining room was packed Almost to the point you were backed up against the guests at an adjacent table . Noise level was high. Our guests raved about the prime rib, said it was the best they ever had. My meal was not good. A combo of negatives for me, some items were over salted and others undercooked . As my guests were thrilled I was happy as their host but the dining experience wasn’t a good one for me
