Highly recommend Tundra. The overall experience is top notch. Relaxed environment with food quality and choices that are exceptional. No need to drive to Ketchum any more. The owner Joel is doing things right and the services couldn't be better. Last visit the beet salad was to die for and the scallops were cooked perfectly. Have had the steaks and best in the valley. Can't wait to take our of town guests there next week.

About the restaurant

CK’s our family owned business believes our business should be part of the solution and not part of the problem. We serve globally inspired food with an emphasis on seasonal and local ingredients. We recycle everything we can: metals, glass, paper and cardboard. Our used cooking oil goes to the local buisness man for his bio-fuel trucks. The vegetable scraps become compost for our garden. 15% of our energy is produced by our rooftop solar panels and solar hot water is on the way soon. Many of us commute to work on foot or by bike. Our food comes from several local farms and ranches and we purify our drinking water. Our goal is fresh healthy food that will feed your body and your soul.

I love coming here for a fresh farm to table meal. Great food, service, and location. Just a nice place to have a tasty meal. I wish they offered more vegan options ( they alternate between 2 of the same ones). The food tastes wonderful, but a switch up every now and again would be great!

Wonderful lunch! Great service and an awesome view. From our vantage point we could watch the golfers against an unbeatable Mountain View. Our server ( from Eugene, Or) was fun, greeted us with an enthusiastic attitude, and provided attentive service. Our food was delicious!
