The restaurant is very small, which makes total sense why it's so busy come summer time. I recommend coming in the off season for an easier chance getting a table and enjoying the experience. I don't quite count but I would say there were about 8 tables inside for dining. Sam was our server and he was an absolute joy, he has a great personality and was very present in conversation at each table he served. All of us enjoyed our meals, the food is very good and flavorful. I cannot recommend the garlic mashed potatoes enough!!! These were my favorite item I had, and I've been talking about them since my visit! A mashed potato is my least favorite potato dish, and these were stellar. I also had the chicken club sandwich and it was good, came with lots of avocado on it. My husband went gourmet and had the duck dish and he really enjoyed it as well, said it was very tasty. My sister ordered the ravioli, and raved as well. Each of us finished all of our plates clean. We'd like to come in the future for a special date night, so if you're in the mountains and looking for somewhere special to celebrate something check out the Steam Donkey!

We appreciated the heads up on that. I ordered the chicken sando and tots. Super delicious and the tots were crispy. The chicken was juicy and the avocado was spot on ripe. My wife got the bacon breakfast and I assume she loved it as she didn't say a word while digging in. My father in law got the Rueben, with sweet potato fries. He absolutely grubbed it. He asked for the fries extra crispy and they came out perfect. For a little place off the 108, in Mi Wii....its a little gem. It feels like a country kitchen and they do not skimp on serving. I highly recommend stopping in.

The morning offerings of muffins, croissants, scones, and cinnamon rolls has failed me. I will say the sandwiches are decent, but nothing to write home to. The smoothies used to epic, but they now fall flat. I'm think they are not using all the fruit as the old owners did. As for the staff....a little rude and it seemed like no one wanted to wipe the tables down. It's a cute place, but if I had a choice I would skip it and seek life elsewhere for some morning substance.

The large dining area was well lit and clean. Indoor and outdoor seating was plentiful and offered a nice place to relax or take a break. I can see this being full on weekends and holidays. They also have a bar with seating, and cafe with ready made salads, yogurt, fruit, snacks, and coffee or tea made to order. They have breakfast items in the am such as burritos and oatmeal but we opted to have lunch instead. Items ordered: Philly cheesesteak- large sandwich with plenty of meat, bell peppers, onions, and cheese on a toasted bun. Chicken tenders with fries (or tator tots)- 3 strips of chicken with crispy fries. Beef brisket chili (you can select toppings- cheese, onions, jalapeños)- okay taste wise but a tad too salty for my taste Pepperoni pizza - decent sized slice but the crust is too thick for my liking (this is self serve) Loaded mac n cheese (loaded means you select two items (items- bacon, broccoli, pulled pork, onion strings, chili)- this item was fine Overall, food was better than other ski resorts and I liked the options they had.

My family ordered a cheese burger, cheese nachos and Mac & cheese! I could not stop eating the Mac & cheese! The macaroni is a bit overcooked but it tasted very good with the cheese and bacon!

And the cafeteria was spacious and we enjoyed dining inside. Also we had an episode at the end of the day which my son lost his phone!
