    Hungarian goulash
    Desiree D.

    Stopped by here after going to Mt. Rainier national park. Food was underwhelming sadly. The curry was tasty but I got more celery than anything else as a vegetable which was disappointing. The goulash was not good at all. The noodles were over cooked and everything else just didn't have much flavor. Our server was friendly and the views were nice from the windows. Not many options for food in the area.

    Mushroom burger - I was obviously starving and forgot a before picture. It tasted better than it looks here fortunately

    After a Friday visit to Mt Rainier National park I was starving, so we stopped here in the afternoon for some lunch. We ended up being the only people there on a August weekday, so the service was great. Although I'm sure it would have been just as good with other customers there. I got the mushroom burger and it was ok. I'd rather have my burger come with fries as a standard especially when it's nearly $20, but it was potato chips. The burger tasted fine, but nothing amazing for that price. The consensus at our table was that the coconut curry bowl was the best, so I'd recommend that instead.

    There isn't much choice for dining in the area so expect prices to be on the high side. Unfortunately, the deli wasn't available (we were hoping for cheap sandwiches). That said, we very much enjoyed our lunch here. It was very laid back and chill. Service was great. There isn't a lot of choice on the menu for vegetarians, but they had a very unique tempeh sandwich. We were hungry so my husband and I both ordered it. The sandwich was excellent. Tempeh can be funky if not handled right and the tempeh in this sandwich was delicious. It was a great combination of flavors. A gourmet sandwich actually which justified the price.

    Came here hungry and were satisfied! Ordered the happy hour meatballs which you can tell are homemade and were really tasty. For entrees I had the pomodoro pasta with chicken which was perfect! A light flavorful red sauce with perfectly grilled chicken. My sister ordered the vegetarian curry which was SO good and flavorful! Almost with I had ordered it. Overall a great spot to sit outside on a summer night and enjoy some good food after exploring the mountains!

    Summer 2020: stayed at the Village Inn for a couple nights while we explored the mountains, eating at the Alpine for breakfast and dinner. Most wouldn't expect gourmet on a mountaintop, but the Alpine exceeded all expectations. Thoroughly enjoyed the food, kind service, and beautiful atmosphere. Even if you're on the mountain for a day, I'd implore you to stay for a meal. It will be worth it.

    We came here for dinner one night while on a recent trip to Rainier. We didn't have high expectations, but were pleasantly surprised! While the service was slow and they seemed understaffed, the food was amazing! I got the tofu curry and it was DELICIOUS. This is jot something I would have normally ordered, but I would definitely order again! Loved being able to sit outdoors!

    Our food was average; the spinach dip and pita was best, Happy Hour is not really happy. It's just lunch pricing. Poor choices for beverages. The worst part is service, you have to go inside to get attention, then they bring you outside because it's all about the view, This is at shift change so we are passed from a server who take part of the order and then another take more and then someone else delivered food in action style. Oh yes, hanging flower baskets were beautiful (go for the view maybe) We would try any place else next time

    Service was slow considering that not much people were dining around at 4pm for lunch. I guess dont order burger from this place, we were a party of five and everyone ordered a burger. The buns were burnt, meat was overcooked-dry and burnt again. Ended up just eating the vergetables and pickles..

    See all

Apparently there are two ways to secure a table: make a reservation for a specific time and put a deposit down, or put your name on the waitlist. This wasn't really explained to me from the beginning. When our 45 minutes was near, the hostess told me it could be another 45 min because the reservations had priority over me. Huh? Why the two systems? Seemed rather confusing. Fortunately, the hostess recognized my irritation and was able to seat us within a few minutes. The food was hearty and satisfying and the service was decent.

It's just a bunch of food stands you can order/grab from, and you can find your own seats. During weekend lunch hours, it's packed here and very difficult to find seating for groups. There is a lot of variety for food here- sandwiches, pasta, pizza, burger. You just go to what station of food you want and place an order! In some cases, the food is Pre made and you can just grab and go. The prices here are (unsurprisingly) high, but there aren't too many options here for a quick bite, so all of the restaurants and eateries on Crystal are a little pricey. Expect to spend 10-15 for a simple lunch. The food was pretty decent! I got chicken tenders and fries, and the portion was more than I could finish. I saw friends who got cheesesteaks and burgers. Everyone enjoyed their food. After such a big meal... fair warning- it's hard to get back on the slopes! Anyway, this is definitely the place to go for a quick lunch after skiing. You don't have many food options anyway, but luckily it's pretty good here!

Proper Patty ($11) - This burger comes with two smash patties, both of which are heavily salted and somewhat crisped up - the pictures from other people make it seem like they cook long enough to get lacy caramelized edges, but it's not quite to that point. Instead, the burgers, while not moist and fatty, aren't dried out either, and give a great beefy flavor. The burger sauce adds some tangy sweetness, and some pickles on top adds even more sweetness, but a very fresh crunch. It's otherwise pretty standard with the lettuce and tomato. A solid smashburger. (4/5) Fries ($5) - These are fried enough to give a crust on the potatoes, but not enough for the fries to be come crisp. Still, they aren't floppy, so while not entirely crisp, these are still good for eating especially since the insides are nice and fluffy. They are salted a lot, which combined with the salty dip (we went with the Bud's Sauce), equals a parched mouth after eating. I think they actually use a lime salt or something as I can detect a bit of citrus flavor. The Bud's Sauce is a nice mayochup mixture with I think a bit of smokiness from paprika and some chopped onion. It's sweet, tangy, and salty. (4/5) Overall Burger Buds serves some nice classic smashburgers! It's great for a visit while in town for a quick and easy meal.

The young lady was very friendly & attentive, handling the store front & waitressing the restaurant including clearing tables for the next customers. The meal was so filling I had no room for dessert, and I can't wait to cut into one of the baked blackberry pies later. Things I learned is try to visit when it is not tourist season, and make sure you try their little wild blackberry pie, ala mode' of course. I'd even recommend taking a whole pie home, I have not found anywhere that comes close to an old fashion country home baked tiny wild blackberry pie like my mom & several relatives & friends. This is the second year I've made a special drive out to this restaurant, just for the pie, and enjoy the drive out there, really need to leave earlier so I can enjoy more of it including dropping into the Mount Rainier park.
