    From Elizabeth at check in to Lucas at the bar to Jody at dinner, all staff are gracious and attentive and highly professional. Had the halibut which was delicious and fresh. Sourdough rolls with real butter and gingerbread crème brûlée…decadent. Ambiance is lovely with fireplaces everywhere you turn. Perfect spot for our anniversary dinner completed by complimentary champagne!

    Myself and another person in our party ordered the 8 oz Wagu Denver Steak. It was very tough and hard to cut or eat. The other person sent his back, and was refunded the cost, choosing not to order anything else. I was starving so I ate one slice of mine, but brought the rest home for the dog. I too should have sent mine back. I was embarrassed as I made the reservation and built up to the rest of our party as to how wonderful RT food was. This was very disappointing and not up to par for the cost and quality we usually get at RT Lodge Restaurant.

    A great night. Started out sitting outside under the lights at the fire pit. Reverse dinner. Made s’mores in the fire while we sipped Old fashions. Moved upstairs for dinner and had a great meal with fantastic service. Finished the night back in the rocking chairs at the fire pit. Great evening at this gem of a restaurant!
