The Chef did a great job in creating a vegetarian dish for my wife and Bonnie was very attentive but not overly so in waiting on us. Another great dinner at Glen Ella.

Wolf Mountain is one of my favorite places to celebrate my friends birthday. Today Ethan was our server and he was super! My friend had the Kale salad with salmon and I had the Flying Dutchman pizza. Both were absolutely delicious and large portions that we both had to get to go boxes. Most of all the view is absolutely breathtaking.
