“10 Star Review! We hosted a private dinner for 11 people at The Grill at Knob Hill. Will, the manager was so great to work with. Will, and the chef curated a beautiful Autumn Idaho Dinner. Our guests were from Boston and New Hampshire so we wanted to present the best from Idaho. We started with a Fall Moscow Mule for cocktail, then a beautiful nut, dried fruit, cheese, honey, roasted garlic baguette plates for each guest, then a savory butternut squash soup with basil olive oil drizzle, the Autumn salad with shaved cheese, nut, pomegranate was awesome, the main entree was Idaho trout with an herb butter and wagu steak, rice pilaf, the famous popovers, and finished with Fall home made stone fruit cobbler. The wine choices by Will were awesome. Autumn in Sun Valley - Ketchum, the beautiful golden aspen trees, and a fantastic dinner and amazing staff at the Grill at Knob Hill was the perfect evening.“

“This might be my favorite ski lodge I've ever been too. The views were spectacular, true 360 of the surrounding mountains, and the food was great. It also had this gorgeous old school vibe. Definitely didn't feel like your "fake but commercialized" ski lodge.Loved the taco salad I got. You could really customize it. I put pretty much everything on it! Line moved quick and the staff was super nice.Our crew just sat and chatted and ate for quite a while. Easy to find a table at 1:00pm on a Saturday.“

“Celebrated my birthday there and could not have enjoyed the entire experience more!! The hotel is beautiful with amazing views in a prime central location. The staff is incredibly helpful and kind. I really loved the music on the patio. This is a dog friendly hotel, so we were able to have our 4 legged kids join us for our celebration. We had a place to store our bikes safely and enjoyed the proximity to bike trails. Our stay was very pleasant and we are excited to return soon. Thank you Limelight!!!😍“

“Our dinner last night was wonderful. Everyone raved about their entrees and the profiteroles for dessert were as good as any in Paris. Ice cold martinis and Cosmopolitan were as good as any served in a Metropolitan city. The Christy is the go to place for Sun Valley locals not only for its food but also for its ambience. The dining room has perfect lighting with white tablecloths and the bar is casual and always lively. The service is excellent as well!“

“Huge inside with plenty of run to sit and relax. There is music in the afternoon. There is a cafeteria style restaurant, expect to pay about $20+ per person. There is also a full bar and two fireplaces. Some of the tables inside have a view of the ski runs. There is plenty of outside seating as well, with a fire pit.“

“The blueberry pancake was okay but the Blackstone Egg and hash browns were superb. Great coffee as well.“

“Thank you for hosting a pub crawl. The Warren Ski had a great time at your place. Loved the shuffle board game. Food & drink was good.“

“They apologize for being OPEN.“

“Solid spot in the center of town. Easy going vibe with a broad menu that covers mostly everything you would expect from a pub-style place.

Food was good, although a number of dishes were heavy handed with the salt. Loved the number of non-alcoholic beers on offer.“

“Absolute best lobster bisque soup anywhere. I wish they can ship some. Great friendly staff always and people just need to chill out or stay home. Great place to eat.“

“Hi I love this place so much what great service and enjoyable company!! I highly recommend this place!! Great food great service!!“

“Vintage is one of my absolute all-time favorites! Everything on their menu and every special is amazing! The atmosphere is quite, quaint, romantic, and upscale. The waitstaff is very friendly and professional and chef Rod is amazing! They have a fantastic selection of wines are helpful to pair the best wine with your meal. I love when they run events like Lobsterfest or Trailing of the Sheep. The lunches are also amazing. Hands down one of the best restaurants in the valley.“

“Delicious high quality food and great service❗️One of the best lunch spots here in Ketchum😋 Or possibly THE best❗️“

“Pretty good, affordable lunch option. Felt healthier than some of the other meals we ate while in town. Not much seating inside; so we got our wraps to go and went back to our hotel patio across the street. Can order half a wrap but can only customize full size. The wraps we tried were good. The turkey one was pretty heavy on lettuce; however it was still ok.“

“Great service and food. I got the bbq chicken salad after seeing another customer with it, pointed to it and said "that looks good!" I also got a freshly made cupcake with lemon icing.Back again but this time I had the Cranberry Chicken Croissant Sandwich“

“We go here every time we come into town. The sandwiches have toasted bread, but cold insides, and it makes for a really yummy sandwich. The bread is not too thick. My favorite is the meatless masterpiece, but then adding ham. Ha. We also LOVE the chocolate chips cookies. They make every sandwich to perfection so it is not super fast but not slow either. Worth the wait!!!“

“Food was excellent, staff was friendly & timely. Great dinning on the deck.“

“Absolutely beautiful building and architecture. Very friendly atmosphere. The cashier was very patient with me when I kept changing and adding onto my order. Thank you! 😊“

“Excellent service and great food!!!!“

“Tired from a 12 hour drive - great food - reasonable and we got to have the dogs on the patio!“

“I haven't been to the Cafe because I live in Boise, but I buy their bread from Albertsons: AMAZING! I love that the flour is grown locally and there are only a few ingredients, which is how all breads should be! For someone with food allergies, I was thrilled to find breads I can eat safely; when I realized they were insanely delicious as well, I stopped buying all other bread! If you ever expand a cafe in Boise, I will be there every week!“

“Bowl of soul. Awwww…..so good.“

“A sports bar, plenty of drinks to choose from. They ran out of brisket and chicken wings, hence the 4 star. It's very loud and had to yell across the table. For $25 the catfish dinner was a great choice. Three pieces of fish which were thick and not fishy tasting. Came with hush puppies, Mac and cheese, potato salad, slaw. The slaw had no taste and the other two sides were bland. I asked for salt and pepper, never got it. Asked for more water, never got that. The server split the ranch dressing, she said she would bring another, didn't get that. So, the service kinda sucked. They had 49ers, Bears game on, sthat was decent. We didn't have to wait to long for a table, it's first come, first serve. We lucked out that a couple got tired of waiting for their food to come and they got up and left! I don't think we will go back while we are here.“
