    We had a wonderful dinner in the main dining room. Service, as always, was perfect. All the staff here are wonderful, they work hard to give everyone a lovely dining experience. The menu was recently refreshed, and I tried the chicken spiedie sando. It was excellent! Loads of flavor, perfectly grilled chicken, and on a soft hoagie roll. The Lodge is the quintessential mountain dining experience.

    The food is merely average. However, the location is appealing to TD residents. It’s unfortunate that it doesn’t live up to its potential, as it would be a great addition to the dining scene in the area.

    The menu has changed again (from two weeks ago). Options are limited and do not order the halibut, the special of the day. It was the driest piece of fish I have ever gotten in a restaurant. The service was fair, waiter was scarce during our meal

    The views are beautiful, but our food was horrible. The service was weak. My wife’s food was undercooked. My hamburger was supposed to be medium was rare and nobody came and asked it’s anything didn’t get refills on our drinks so I’m sorry I can’t recommend this place.

    We had the rib eye steak dinner. It was a disaster. Even the accompanying vegatables were not eatable. The steak was 1/3 fat and hard to cut at times even with a knife. The meal with tip was $292 and a complete was of money.

    This was our first time dining at The Lodge with the new menu. We had 6 people in our party and no one thought their meal was very good. Even the hamburger seemed sub par compared to previous burgers. Why change the basics? My husband loved the old Korean chicken sandwich but thought the new chicken sando was dry and tough. We were embarrassed by the quality of the food for our 4 newcomers. The service was the only bright spot in our evening. What happened to the previous chef??
