What a pleasure to find such a gem just a short drive from the Park City downtown area. Our waitress, Stephanie (also a former Michigander) was such an integral part of our wonderful experience. Her suggestions of the Fern salad as our starter, the trout dish as our main (my special maple Old Fashioned) and our peanut butter bread pudding dessert made for a 10 out of 10 experience! We will definitely revisit this place full of great service and gastronomical delights when we are next in town! Cheers! read more

I'd give this place 5 stars but there was one particular person that tried to ruin my wife & I's evening. This rude white woman with curly red hair... She never said her name or what her position was at the restaurant. It was over 100 degrees on this day. I was carrying coconut water to stay hydrated. When I sat down she approached me & said it was illegal to bring outside drinks into a restaurant. Illegal? What a liar? What was her purpose? To try and scare me? Am I going to be arrested? There is no law in Utah or any federal law in the USA that states it's illegal to bring an outside drink into a restaurant. All she had to do is say "I apologize but we prefer no outside drinks in this restaurant, may you please place it under the table" and everything would've been fine. Nope she wanted to try an intimidate me. Maybe she's prejudice towards Latinos. It is Utah but who knows? The food was great, the Latina waitress was nice too. When I got the check, I used my business card to pay, I just paid off the balance on the card on Friday but it was Saturday & the payment didn't clear yet. Not knowing this the card declined. No big deal... But instead of my waitress coming to my table to inform me my card declined, it was Pipi Longstocking (White woman, curly red hair) again... Letting everyone sitting around us know my card declined. I used my Business Amex Platinum this time and that was that. I really enjoyed my dinner with my wife. The food was so unique & delicious but that particular woman made me not want to return back. Please be a better person & treat your customers with equality & kindness. Thank you. read more

We have been here a number of times. You have to get the chick peas even if you don't love them. They are so crispy and yummy you will love them. The elk ragu was a huge serving and well done. The homemade rigatoni had the perfect bite and the ricotta mixed in added extra umami. The Elk steak was good not great. It came out more rare than med rare so it was a little chewy. The sides were inconsistent - crunch carrots and mushy potatoes. The wine list is good enough and the service was solid. The one buzz kill was the waitstaff attire. Our server and busser both had wrinkled and food stained shirts. We had a 6:15 reservation so maybe it was just a rough night. And it was daylight and the place does not look like fine dining without table cloths on tables and chairs arranged at the tables appropriately. read more

We had such a lovely experience here. Every dish felt really special and thoughtfully done. We started with the house-made focaccia with whipped ricotta, which was incredible. The Utah elk with huckleberry jam was a standout, such a unique and well-balanced combination. The elk ragu was also amazing, super rich and full of flavor. I loved that they source locally. It really shows and makes the whole meal feel even more special. The presentation of each plate was beautiful. You can tell a lot of care goes into the food, and everything felt intentional and well seasoned. I also really appreciated how they handled dietary needs. The menu clearly labels gluten-free and dairy-free options, which made it easy to navigate without any guesswork. Our waitress was attentive and gave great recommendations throughout the night. Even though it's located in a strip mall, don't let that deter you. The interior has a modern, elevated feel, and the easy parking is honestly a huge bonus. We ended with the strawberry apple tart and the brownie sundae, and both were fantastic. read more

This place gives a nice chill vibe with cheerful staffs and good service. We had dinner during our trip to Park City and it was busy on a Tuesday. Thankfully we made reservation and were seated right away. The two of us shared the creamy Baked Brie for appetizer which was pretty good. Hubby got the Double Wide Pork Chop, and I opted for the Colorado Bison Bavette. Very nice presentation on the entrees but too salty. We found the saltiness overwhelmed the flavor on both dishes. read more

One of the best meals I've ever had. Everything was tasteful and flavorful. We had an app made of these ferns that were just amazing. Got the entree we got the pasta and the fish. Both were prepared from scratch and super unique. I wouldn't have changed a thing except I wish we had room to try other things. Go go go read more

We had a delightfully delicious dinner here one Monday night. It's elevated food in a casual environment. We shared the green salad (good dressing), grilled broccoli (has a little kick), and elk ragu. That was enough! I had a gimlet as well, amd we each took home a dessert for later (strawberry apple tart with sherbet and peanut butter bread pudding). Cost was about $55 per person, not including tax. Single-stall, gender-segregated restrooms. Free lot parking. read more

My husband and I ended our date night at this restaurant. What a beautiful restaurant - I loved all the greenery and plants. We were devastated they were out of the Utah Elk, it was why we came! We started off with and old fashioned and a Paloma, both were amazing. We had the octopus for a starter and it was so full bodied and diverse, it was awesome! I had the elk ragu which was phenomenal and my husband had the bison steak. He said the meat itself was great but the rest of the dish was just okay. The deduction in star comes from the Pumpkin Creme Brûlée... it was not good. At all. Not even in the slightest. The custard was pumpkin-like but was very bitter and lacked any form of sweetness. Our server was great and attentive and loved the word "Cheers!" Overall, great date night but we'd avoid the brûlée next time and hope for the Utah Elk. read more

I will start by saying I love this place! We have never had a bad meal and we stopped in last week and was, again a solid experience. We always start with the garlic and sesame chickpeas. They are crispy and ever so tasty. The wife went with the trout, which is pan seared filet served on rice with perfectly cooked asparagus. I almost always go with the burger but I switched it up this time and went with the utah elk and that was a stellar choice. Perfectly cooked with two very flavorful sauces and the portion size was generous without being over the top. Service is solid. The staff leaves you alone but also shows up at the right time to take care of you when you need them. The place is located in a strip mall but don't let that fool you. Check it out the next time you want something new in Park City. read more

We really enjoyed our dinner and everything we ordered (except the chickpeas. I don't know what we expected but it was meh) The octopus was tender and flavorful - probably our favorite dish! Baked brie inspired us to make our own version at home and has been a party favorite. Duck was well-cooked and so tasty, I just wish there's more for the price point. Something I really appreciate at Twisted Fern is the SAUCES! Sauces are time consuming to create but make such a difference in adding flavors and depth to a dish. Dessert was great too - I'd love to return and try more things on the menu! read more

Good food. Nice service staff. Good sazerac. It was a pleasant setting if lacking a little in ambiance.

Simply the best in Park City. Way better than the ones on Main Street. We tried 4 or 5 appetizers and 4 entrées, and every dish had an unexpected twist that worked perfectly. Every single one was delicious. read more

Overall, a great quality spot in the mountains!! Modern restaurant vibe, open and inviting. Sat at the bar. Bar service was good and attentive. Hostess stand needs some training though, maybe it's a generational thing but don't come over to help your fellow host and say "what's he saying???" Need to teach them confidence to speak clearly and be more inviting... Food was great. Got the elk. Very well prepared. Dessert was good. Bread pudding was solid very quality ingredients. Only knock on the bread pudding was the mousse was dense, as was the bread pudding. Would have preferred one being a bit lighter or both. Good option around town. read more

Twisted Fern - Old fashioned - New American Near Me - Park City, Utah

Twisted Fern: where the chickpeas are crunchy, the desserts are divine, and the ketchup is apparently trying to audition for a candy role in Willy Wonka's factory. We started strong with the burrata and bread -- honestly, I could have stopped there, hugged the server, and gone home happy. The crunchy chickpeas? A delightful snack that made me feel like a classy squirrel. And the desserts? Let's just say I blacked out and woke up with an empty plate and no regrets. Now for the plot twists... The trout was good -- but it wanted to be great. A little more crisp and it could have taken flight. The burger had potential, but the ketchup was so sweet I'm convinced it had a secret life as strawberry jam. I had to politely scoot it to the edge of the plate like it was an ex at a party. The carrot appetizer? More of a philosophical question than a flavor experience. "If a carrot falls in a forest of seasoning and no one tastes it, does it make a flavor?" Spoiler: not really. Would I come back? Yes. I'm not mad -- I'm just a little hungry still. But next time, I'll give the waitress a TED Talk about my texture and condiment preferences. Twisted Fern, you've got charm. With a few tweaks, you might just earn that 5 star yelp rating. read more

There's no way this place should be given less than 5 stars! I took my wife here for Mother's Day, along with our son. My wife has several food allergies: gluten, celery, and shrimp. Not only did the restaurant accommodate these allergies but the chef visited the table and walked through every item for my wife. He also returned to check on us after we started eating. Needless to say, the food was DELICIOUS! Great presentation and taste! Seasoned (not the case at many restaurants)! Additionally, the servers were so great with our son and continued to provide excellent all-around service. The hostess greeted us with delight and mentioned the high chair we requested on the reservation. We highly, highly recommend this restaurant! Do not think twice about taking the drive as we did, almost two hours RT! It was definitely worth the drive and time! We will return! read more

Super easy to book a reservation on open table. As others have mentioned you do have to put a $25 deposit on your reservation and I can see how that is a turn off. The restaurant is clean and simple but super cute. We got the pork chop and the burger! Something that really popped out for us was shockingly the ketchup! It's sooo sweet and different. The sides with the pork chop were the best thing I have eaten in along time. It was apples with potatoes and arugula. Just simply amazing. The pork chop was good but I have had better. But it was still tasty! I would give this place a try! read more

Great food & great service! We enjoyed the locally sourced food; my wife had the beet salad with trout and I had the jalapeno caesar salad and the trout dinner. The atmosphere was nice / casual and they also had a lighted outside seating area. read more

Located a little of the Main Street in Park City, Twisted Fern was a great spot for a large group dinner. I don't think any of our 17 water glasses were ever empty. To start, I had the homemade focaccia which was warm and tasty. For my entree, I had the Utah Elk which was also great. It was one of the members of our group birthday and they brought him out a chocolate desert to celebrate read more

Amazing dinner and service. Drinks -double old fashioned and the pomegranate manhattan special to the trout and bison entree were great. Nice atmosphere and easy parking. Only let down was the olive oil lemon cake was quite disappointing more like a bisquick biscuit and the berry crisp was way too much sugar for our taste. We will be back but will skip dessert. read more

Second time here; second review. Whatever you order, make sure to include focaccia. All sauces are beyond amazing, and you will want to sop every bit of gravy in your plate. Our party enjoyed octopus appetizers, shrimp etouffee, soft shell crab special, and chicken. The iced tea is second to none in Utah, my husband claims. Staff is lovely- Paloma, Stephanie. read more

Really good food and I would definitely come back! The restaurant is great for a date night- super cute inside, spacious, plenty of bar seating too. Crispy Polenta with Mushrooms 8/10: I loved the texture of the crispy cakey polenta and the mushrooms had a savory slightly spicy undertone to it. Delicious! Ragu Rigatoni 8/10: this was a really solid standard rigatoni! No complaints. I liked the ricotta cheese on top and could've had the pasta a *little* less al dente but otherwise really solid choice. Duck 10/10: delicious, amazing, outstanding duck! These flavors were an insane punch in the mouth of creamy comforting but also slightly zingy. The butternut squash puree paired so well with the spice-packed duck. Can't recommend this enough. Coconut tapioca pudding with caramelized bananas 8/10: this was also a really delicious dessert. My only suggestion would be to make the tapioca pudding cold. We recently went to an Indian restaurant that served the coconut tapioca pudding over ice and that was a great way to cool down our palate. read more

Modern American cuisine from a very talented chef, Adam Ross in the park city area! The place has a high-class modern look but nothing crazy with natural lighting being a small quaint but inviting vibe; I didn't feel cramped with a party of 8. There is a myriad of food options, inviting cocktails, and a nicely put together wine list that lets you know there is genuinely alot of effort from the owner and staff. The service is endearing and correctly attentive and they decanted my bottle of châteauneuf-du-pape I requested well. The starters are all excellent, Brussels sprouts with the kimchi is exciting and so tasty and the Foccacia would please anyone when paired with the accompanying whipped ricotta and balsamic/olive oil. While I loved the Harissa brown sugar lamb ribs I wish they had a little more meat. The entrees were all stellar with the start of the show being the Pan Roasted Duck Breast and Chicken Coq Au Vin. The Duck is so tender with the confit duck fried black rice, apricot herb chutney just enlightening the whole dish. The Chicken Coq Au Vin is rich and filling with a very generous portion I don't think anybody could not love this. The Elk is probably the best I've ever and was brilliantly cooked but the cherry compote and curry is just complimenting the elk wonderfully. Lastly the trout was fresh and similarly to the rest was a great meal with the Black rice-quinoa being so unique and the green dressing with tomato pesto just brings the whole dish to life! All the desserts are unique and wonderful with the accompanying wine pairings being great! I'm a Level 2 Somm and I was with guest that can be hard to please at times and had no complaints from anyone our whole service. This was a wonderful meal and service through and through! read more

The first time I dined at Twisted Fern I was part of a large group of 8. We ordered a variety of dishes and everyone was pleased with the food. Service was great from start to finish and the restaurant is nice and clean with some cute decor. My friend and I loved the food so much we returned a couple weeks later. I highly recommend the green acres cocktail, the duck breast entree, and any of their desserts. read more

We cannot prevent others from receiving preferential treatment, but we can choose to leave the table when humane treatment and positive vibes are not being served. We arrived a few minutes early for our reservation and stood around with two other groups (2 and 4) to be seated. The other two-person party was a walk-in, and the second party member arrived AFTER us. The party of four stated they called and were told that they could be accommodated. (As a point of reference, a reservation requires you to provide a credit card at booking.) The hostess told me that the diners at "my" table had already paid, so it would be just a few moments before I could be seated. Afterwards, she departed to seat the party of two (who did not have a reservation) AND the party of four who called about availability and were told to come over. The hostess returned to seat us more than 15 minutes later. But just before she did, another duo entered the restaurant withOUT a reservation and were told they would be seated immediately after we were. As we were being walked to "our" table, I noticed it was an arm length away from the first couple without a reservation (who arrived after us) and the family of four who called before arriving. As I unrolled my napkin to place it in my lap, the hostess returned with the newly arrived duo and seated them in the corner near us. Then, she placed a pile of place settings on a four person table and combined it with a two person table next to it. Less than a minute later, she led in a family of six who had presumably arrived after she had seated us. Finally noticing the hostess hustled and moved with purpose for EVERY other group shook me at my core. It was then that I finally realized we were not welcomed. As I attempted to overcome my apprehension and experience what we were told would be a delicious meal, I realized we had only one menu but two drink menus. As we waited to get someone's attention for a second or QR code, I decided it was time to spend money where I would be welcomed with open arms and treated with respect. The moral of the story is that, while the food is reportedly delicious, all customers are not treated as equal. read more
