    We’ve eaten there a handful of times and have loved every single thing we’ve ever ordered. Apps, entrees, everything. And I’m amazed how the prices seem to have gone up much less than other higher end restaurants we’ve eaten at recently. Bear food and best value.

    We’ve been coming for many years now and this year was the worst on every level. 3 adults and 1 child for $1000- I’d gladly pay if it was worth the whole experience, but no.

    235 per person on this meal was high for what we got. $125 was A more reasonable price point for what was served. The typical price for king crab and steak is $75 to $80 per plate at a normal restaurant. Served buffet style amongst hundreds of other guests. I believe 125 would be appropriate.
