    New owner. Cold canned food. Long waits.

    NEW OWNERSHIP Holy cow this place has gone downhill fast. Nachos for the past 15 years were the highlight of the afternoon until new management came in and ruined a cash cow. All food served was cold and literally out of a bottle. We watched them squirt cold cheese on top literally. 1.5 hours later we got our meals. On top of this experience the host took her job so seriously she yelled at the family of 4 to come back when the other two kids came up from the bathroom. They were moved twice we watched by the same hostess as each family member showed up within 6 minutes. Waitress told us all cheese in the pasta, nachos and sandwiches came from a can. Pasta cheese tasted expired. AVOID AND REPORT IF MEAL LOOKS CONTAMINATED.

    After a great ski day, this place was amazing to have some food for the day! We ordered a plate of nachos and the green valley burger! The nachos was delicious and was over in minutes(mostly because we were craving for some food). The green valley burger was one of the best burgers I have had! The patty was yummy! It was soft and the toppings were perfect! It was perfect on the whole! It did come with a side of fries which was soft and tasty and well! They did serve alcohol but we were too tired to drink(since we had a 2 hour drive back to Seattle)! Definitely stop here for a good meal after a ski day!

    Busy day at the bar.

    Average ski hill food and typical ski hill prices. Very slow service. Amazing views. Beautiful Lodge.

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!

    In the many years I have been coming to Washington (at least once a year and sometimes twice a…read moreyear), I didn't know this place existed. My bonus daughter planned a day trip to Crystal Mountain and it truly was quite an incredible experience in itself. The Summit House is Washington's highest-elevation restaurant at 6,872 feet. To get there, you ride the scenic gondola up from the resort. The cost for the ride up is $54 for adults, so I suggest taking full advantage of taking in the scenery. Walk around, take pictures, and pause to take in the fresh air. It was a very warm day (I think it was high 70s-80ish), so by the time we did that, we were thirsty and hungry. You have the option to eat on the patio (which is also dog friendly) or inside. We ate inside as it looked like the tables with shade outside were taken. The service was good. Four stars for service. The staff was very friendly and pleasantly interacted with us. We sat at the corner table right when you walk in which was all window so the view was incredible. It's not facing Mt Rainier, but the view is still incredible that high up. Side note: there were flies in that corner that were trying to get out as you can imagine. We had poutine for the table. The fries in the poutine were good, but the gravy and cheese combined were on the salty side. The chicken in the fried chicken sandwich was a bit tough. The classic burger and the elk burger were a bit tough (maybe overcooked?). The strawberry and pear spinach salad was fine. The roasted veggie sandwich was fine. The fries that the dishes came with were overall pretty good. A few of us had huckleberry lemonade that we enjoyed. The reviews average three stars for Summit House and I agree. 2.5 stars for food 4 stars for service 3 stars all around average The view is what we came for and that did not disappoint at all.

It's quite literally on the other side of the mountain from us - just over Chinook pass on the west side. We were looking for a spot to grab some lunch after an early season hike of Naches peak loop, and this place was the one we were looking for! For those "uneducated" about very small towns in central southern Washington, Naches is a one such town. Anytime we see a spot that's named after somewhere near us, we generally try to check it out, so imagine our surprise when we came across this magic little hole in the wall. It's very rustic/mountainy feeling inside and out. From the pool table room with dollar bills stapled to the wall, to the old school bar, and the yard out back with extra seating, this place oozes small town charisma! The menu isn't huge, but it was very good! Burgers, chicken, salads, fish 'n chips and some seriously dope cheese curds are all at your fingertips! The drink selection is solid, trends towards a biker bar (not surprisingly), and had some good non-alcoholic options. The woman who took our order, may have helped make everything, and was quick to get our drinks and food out to us. There was a bit of a crowd and she did nice job of taking care of everyone. As a random aside, you should check out the bathrooms and their decor. It's quite a unique spectacle! On a nice day, there are few places nicer than a spot like this. If you're driving over highway 410, this is place you should plan to check out!

The chicken sandwich was delicious and it comes with homemade potato chips which I thoroughly enjoyed. The crowd seemed to be both locals and tourists and if I was looking to hang out at a bar for the night and not going on a difficult hike at mt rainier the next day it probably would have been a lot of fun. The bartender was very friendly and polite. Thank you.

We arrived around lunchtime, and got seated right away. Both the exterior and interior had a rustic vibe, with a wood stove and beautiful wall mural of the mountain. I started with a Hot Cider to warm up, which really hit the spot. My friend and I ordered the Chicken Parmesan Sandwich (daily special) to share, as well as a slice of the famous Blackberry Pie. The Chicken Parmesan Sandwich was solid, but nothing too memorable. The cutlet was a little thick for my preference, but it got the job done. The real star, of course, was the Blackberry Pie! The texture of the crust was perfect and the filling tasted delightfully homemade. We got it without ice cream since it was chilly, but I'm sure it's fantastic with a scoop, as well! They also had some cute local gifts for sale, and I snagged a bar of artisan blackberry soap. Service was friendly and quick!
