    Worst experience ever . Ordered salads and prime rib entree. They brought everything at once the salad had no dressing and no taste, the tomato soup had no taste either. The server did not know how to stage the meal in courses, which he admitted due to lack of training. The prime rib was sent back it was medium rare, when they brought it bac later it was grey and well done . The whole experience was the worst. On top of that the manager could have cared less and did nothing, what bad experience. Don't eat there.

    As usual, our meal at Gretchen’s was outstanding. My husband had the halibut special and side Caesar and I had my favorite meal which is stir fry vegetables and cashews with chicken. Desert was a decadent chocolate cake with vanilla ice cream. Gretchen’s is our favorite restaurant in Sun Valley.

    Great service and ambiance. Yet the food is overpriced for the quality and quantity.

    Food was not great - especially for the price. Service was lackluster. Waitress was very nice but gave us the wrong menu - rather than tell us and ask us to reselect an option based on the correct menu, she simply chose a similar dish for one of us. A dish we never would have chosen. When told about the mistake she didn’t offer to get us something else. She did end up comping us the entree but we did not enjoy it. Food felt like conference center food.

    Food and wine selection were excellent. Lunch menu available all day. Manager was superb. w reseated us to a table away from a large party giving us more space and privacy.

    We came on Valentine's Day. Restaurant Seemed short staffed. My food came before my husbands. We did get complimentary chocolate covered strawberries and the wine pours were big, which was nice. We weren't in a hurry but did notice some other customers frustrated with service. We didn't care so much and the food was excellent

    Love the decor, ambiance, low lighting, huge booth my husband and I shared, and the waiter was very nice. Plus, the food was so delicious! Been coming here for years and have always enjoyed the experience.

    Had a family dinner during the holidays at Gretchen's in the Sun Valley Resort hotel. We were pleasantly surprised by the great food and service. It may have been the best overall meal we had during the entire trip. The staff was also incredibly detail-oriented and attentive, which made the entire experience even more enjoyable.
