Friendly staff. Unbeatable mountain views. Fantastic and perfectly prepared pork dumplings. Yeah, prices are high, but you are eating in the mountains so that does not affect my opinion. This place is top notch and should be appointment viewing after the Terminator 1 peak hike.

Everything was amazing. Except there being a limited menu due to short staff. We were looking forward to trying some of their other items but other then that everything was amazing and the staff was super attentive and nice!

This was the third year in a row that we visited the Eagle’s Eye for lunch. The two previous years the food and service were excellent. Not so this year. The menu had changed and found little of interest to choose from. Ended up ordering the Spinach and Ricotta on sourdough. We received two large slices of sourdough with a minimal amount of spinach and ricotta which was topped with huge tomato slices. Very awkward to try to eat and not very flavourful. Also ordered the Rueben which was greasy and had the mustard missing on one half and oozing out of the other half. To top it off, we waited over a half hour for our food to arrive and the restaurant was not full. Won’t bother to go out of our way to go for a meal again.

Definitely with stopping by for drinks and an app if you’re taking the gondola up! Sweet views off the patio and just a great ambiance in the restaurant. The truffle fries were delish!
