    Lamb pasta
    Courtney F.

    An absolute Sun Valley staple! I hadn't heard of this spot before, but they were one of the only restaurants in town who took reservations, so our group of four tried it out. We were so happy that we did! We sat down and had the cutest view of the mountain outside; this place felt like a cozy house. It was also fun that when sitting inside you have a view of the cooks doing their thang. Our server was kind enough to give us her recommendation when we were trying to decide between two dishes. My pasta was delicious, and the portion was perfect. I'd definitely recommend trying out this spot when in Sun Valley!

    One of the best elegant restaurant in our town. Having the kitchen in view of the guests is quite cool. The bar also is one of the best and most desirable to hang at. Service is just amazing and always friendly. Good is another level as it's full of flavor. And the wine list is excellent. Don't miss this spot. Enjoy!

    $50 Wagyu on mashed potatoes. Bad service and lack of humanity.

    The two servers for the over a dozen tables were slow and distant, no emotion and did not care for their customers. It took a half hour to get my order for food and my appetizer came out and was charged $25 for raw scallops after another 25 minutes my food finally came out and I got 6 ounces of Wagyu Beef on mashed potatoes for $50. Please see attached picture so I've got a pasta that was supposed to be brisket with pasta and could taste nothing but lemon. My wife did not order lemon pasta, but ordered brisket pasta. We took a bite of each and asked for a check. There was no request of what is wrong and no effort was put into trying to make things right, but it was only given us the check in a hurry to get us out that was the fastest part of the service.

    Trout with pickled veg and adobo sauce

    Ambiance was great! Decor, atmosphere, staff, all friendly and welcoming and current. Food was innovative and hit the spot. Prices were a TAD high, but all was delicious. I would highly recommend this place for a special occasion or treat. Not priced for everyday but will be back the next time we're in town. We had the cauliflower, scallops and pork belly for starters. Hit the spot and all different. For mains we sampled pastas (a few were more aldente than our preference) but appreciated the fresh herbs an combinations of flavors. Trout with adobo was a bit sour with over pickle but enjoyed the wake up on the palate. Kudos to the 90's/2000's hip hop music! Right up my alley!

    We had our wedding reception at the Covey in September 2023 and we could not have asked for a more perfect venue/dinner/night! Emily was incredible to work with as we planned the event months before. We worked with her and the Covey staff to choose a custom menu and signature drinks. On the wedding night the entire Covey restaurant and staff were amazing, super attentive and didn't miss a single detail. The wedding guests raved about the food and drinks, and the bar drinks were an absolute success!! They had a special menu for kids and when speeches rolled around they even pulled out an iPad for our 92 year old grandma to help her hear/see the speakers on the back patio. We are SO grateful to the Covey for helping make this the best night of our lives and would 1000/1000 recommend this venue if you have an upcoming event. Thanks Covey Team! You are the best.

    Excellent in ambience, with fresh ingredients including their produce and homemade pasta. We cannot sing the praises of the Covey enough. We booked dinner reservations during the busy Trailing of the Sheep Festival weekend. While this cozy modern elegance meets farmhouse restaurant would have been an ultimate experience for a date night, our expectations were FAR exceeded with our family of four (including two younger children). We enjoyed the mafaldine, lamb cassarecce, and butterleaf dishes. They accommodated a delightful simple pasta for our youngest one, and encouraged them to create artwork while we waited for our meal. Their artwork was proudly framed and tastefully displayed on the wall by the bar. The evening ended with a delightful sweet surprise by the chef/owner and his dog. We will be back, with our family, friends, and for a date night!

    Poor and rude management, inattentive service, undercooked pasta. Restaurant used be good when it had a manager.

    The price might be a little bit higher then other mid-level hotels, but I think this is a great…read moreoption if you're looking for a place with easy access to the Sun Valley resorts and downtown Ketchum. We stayed during ski season and here are the things I was most happy with (in no particular order): * The said it was a continental breakfast so I wasn't expecting all they offered like fresh local bagels and pastries, fresh berries, cut up pineapple, Greek yogurt, cottage cheese, a very high quality granola, oatmeal with all the fixings, a pancake machine, juices, coffees with syrups and milks, lots of high quality tea choices, scrabbled eggs allow and with some mix-ins sometimes cheese or veggie, hard boiled eggs, meat like bacon sausage patties or links, sometime or potato like hash brown patties or shedded hash browns, roasted veggies, and on the weekend days they offered salmon with capers and onions. Plus flavored yogurts in individual containers and whole fruit like apples, oranges, and bananas. * humidifiers in the room. The hotel is so dry. We live at elevation in Park City, UT but Ketchum is drier! We ran the humidifier on high constantly but it was so great they offered this in the room. * they have a parking garage. It is $30/day AND there are easy access free spots around the hotel, but I imagine during peak season the offered parking is best. And it's covered so your car will be snow-free! * the heated pool for year round enjoyment (and two hot tubs). The air was too cold for my liking (because you have to get out eventually). * pretty decent gym with peloton bikes. * oh and the restaurant happy hour seems to be a hit with hotel guests and locals. The one huge downside was because it's so dry and they don't have a humidifier installed for the hotel, we got static shocked every time we touched the elevator buttons or unlocking our room. And it hurt! And when you're in town, I recommend the city museum, the wolf museum, the library, and the cemetery. And if the pedestrian paths are snow-free then head down Sun Valley Road.

    This evening me and my friend came into limelight to enjoy some desserts and a drink, we could not…read morebe more disappointed by the customer service here. first we sat down inside and the front desk said hi to us, however the actual servers did not even look at us. we then decided to go outside, we sat down and again were ignored for a while by the waiter, Lucas. he eventually came to our table and asked if we wanted a menu, of course we do, it's a restaurant. After he told us what time the bar and kitchen close, we quickly made our decision of what we wanted to order. When he came back he walked right past us and SAT DOWN with two other girls at a table to talk and flirt with them for about 10-15 minute. we decided to go to the bar to order becuase he was chatting away and there was no bartender. the cooks were very nice though. FINALLY he came over to us when we were standing at the bar I told him that we just wanted to order before the kitchen closed, and he awkwardly took our order. When my friend asked if they had decaf coffee, he said they "don't really have that" BOY what do you mean a hotel does not have decaf coffee?! so I ordered what I thought was a rhubarb crip pie. I thought it would be worth it, boy was I WRONG. I can handle bad service but after spending $15 damn dollars on a dessert my ice cream was old, we could taste the crystals and some was a little chewy, in case you don't know that's not how icecream sound taste. and when I looked at my "Freshly made" pie it was literally rhubarb filling with some soggy stuff on top. NOT freshly made, and I couldn't eat it, I was so sad. Also we never got an apology, so that sucked. as Gordon Ramsay would say, " apologies to your customers and shut it down." So limelight, I just want my money back or something because that was an awful experience. - Angry Customer!
