Which Deer Valley Restaurants Are Most Highly Recommended?

By Robin Rutecki

Positioning itself amongst the elite ski resorts in North America, Deer Valley restaurants are enjoying an excellent reputation. With an eagerness to provide exceptional levels of service and the best quality food, this upmarket playground caters to please. It seldom fails to deliver, with the well-heeled clientele used to receiving, and expecting such attention.

Within the resort itself, there is a selection of three fine dining restaurants to choose from. The most respected of these is the Mariposa, which has won several top awards, and is often named as one of the best restaurants to visit in the skiing world. Only open throughout the ski season, patrons are able to enjoy both contemporary and classical dishes. Also offered are signature tasting menus, allowing the kitchen team to showcase all that is best about them. With attentive staff, exuding comprehensive knowledge about the food and its provenance, you are assured a memorable experience.

Next in the impressive list of resort restaurants is the widely acclaimed Seafood Buffet. Focusing on providing only the best quality, most sustainable seafood, customers can experience a delightful menu. The Seafood Buffet is again only open throughout the ski season, but is a favorite for both locals and visitors alike, who enjoy the slightly more relaxed environment. Many reviews are posted on the Internet promoting this restaurant, which lovers of cr?me brulee in particular would do well to take notice of.

Ending the list with a flourish is the Fireside Dining restaurant, that delivers Alpine charm, and introduces a novel concept to dining that is fun. Diners are invited to explore the delights on offer, with a tour around four fireplaces. The first offers tempting appetizers including homemade breads, cheeses and chutneys. The second and third fireplaces, present Swiss inspired main courses, with succulent meat dishes, game, poultry and authentic vegetarian options. At the final fireplace, you are invited to select from a tempting range of desserts to finish the meal and partake in the bar offerings.

If you are staying in the resort, it may seem unnecessary to venture outside into the local area. Despite the impressive number and quality of eateries available, it would be a worthwhile trip. Your vacation could only be improved by visiting some of the restaurants around the resort.

First amongst these is the amazingly popular Goldener Hirsch Inn. The winner of many awards, and often booked up for extended periods of time, diners will receive service that is parallel to that offered in the resort.

Amongst the preferred venues away from the resort is The Gliterand, which offers regional cuisine. Set in a stunning mountainside location, it is the proud winner of numerous awards. Another fine dining experience, diners are greeted with an innovative and modern menu. A greater number of restaurants outside of the resort cater for more than fine dining however. This is the case with the Stew Pot restaurant, which is proving popular throughout the local community for its more homemade approach to food, with generous portions and traditional dishes.

Looking for a high quality restaurant in and around Deer Valley is not a hard task. Wherever you decide upon, you are unlikely to be disappointed.
