Ate at this place twice during our stay at the Cliff Lodge. The food was nice and the service friendly (but sometimes felt understaffed).
Favorite dishes were the quinoa fritters and calamari appetizers. Mains: lamb shank, trout and mushroom raviolis were all quite tasty. Kids get a free ice cream sandwich or creamsicle

You start with snow shoeing to the yurt. Not really necessary, but it was fun to try it. The Yurt is small, but bigger than I expected. The food was out of this world delicious and the service was fantastic. It was a little pricey, but for the experience and the service I didn't feel disappointed in any way. This was a Valentines gift for my husband. I wanted to give him something different. Totally scored on this one! The only recommendation I could make is take your own flash light for the trek back. We had to find our own way back to the lodge in the dark. Other than that, book early since the spots fill up quickly and if you can, take a group. Would've been a lot more fun with friends.

We had a party of 6 on 2 separate visits while skiing at Brighton Resort. They sent a vehicle to pick us and return us to our lodge. Pepper steak, meatloaf, shrimp and grits, lamb special with hash browns, and seared tuna special. All awesome. Good wine list, a must visit if you are in the area. Oooo and root beer served in a boot!

The food is delucious--maki, salad, soup--everything. Service is great too. Efficient yet friendly. In fact, of the 4 places visited during this trip Yukon Yama was number 1 for food, service, and value.

A great place to grab an adult drink and warm up in-between ski runs at Brighton Resort. Bar or Table service is available. Customers must be age 21 or older. Happy skiing...

It was the first time we became aware of Utah's odd alcohol laws. Underage were not allowed access to this environment. A rare service minded waiter unlocked a room on the lower floor where no tempting drinks were exposed, where we got the chance to eat our "nutritious" lunch. Thanks for the effort.Next visit I think she's old enough to try the rustic and charming cowboy bar one floor up.

We stopped for lunch at this grill while we were up snowboarding. I ordered the Poutine and a coffee. OMG! The poutine was AWESOME! Talk about comfort food! We had been there before (several times) so I like to try different things on the menu. Everything has been great so far, but this was by far my favorite. I will be eating this again. The service was great and the bathrooms are clean.

A sweeping 360 degree panorama of the Wasatch mountain range! The tram ride was exciting! it was around 10 mins. Was there during golden hour 'til almost sunset and that added drama to the already beautiful scene! Should be back in the winter for a more dramatic look!
