Altitude's un-regimented and casual yet sophisticated dining environment allows diners to feel at home in comfortable surroundings. And while the food speaks for itself, an intelligent selection of wines finds its own voice. The culinary team is passionat

Resort bartenders come and go but not Marty, this is a gem for their resort. He is a great conversationalist and a really good story teller. Ask him for his reward winning whiskey drink he has made and won an award for.....I feel bad for not remembering the name, it has great Indian in the name....ask him and he will whip it up. If you take the time to get to know Marty he is a true gentleman of all kinds of stories and good information.A true asset to the resort.

Skyway Bar & Grill

Reviewed By Steve W

Large and eclectic, "north woodsy" interior. The bar-b-q was overall good. Loved the bar-b-q tofu but not enthusiastic about the brisket. Other bar-b-q was good. Service was excellent and there is a selection of draft beer. I'd go back.

The Shack Restaurant and Sports Bar

We are a family owned and locally popular establishment. With great prices and surprisingly good food - fried chicken, great burgers and a lot more - we are the place to stop heading up or down the mountain. Our local clientele know us as their "Home on t

Reviewed By JimandCarla

Driving home from vacation in Canada and Washington, we got hungry for lunch, and had promised ourselves we would NOT eat at chain restaurants. Then there appeared The Shack. This is a deceptively small place from the outside. Inside it's enormous with rooms and alcoves for watching whatever sport you like. When we were there it was two golf matches, but there was a lone guest enjoying soccer in another room. We had good old burgers, and the Shack's were excellent. Our server was delightful. Of course, even though I asked her name, I have since forgotten it. Sorry.

Good bar type selections that are more casual than Altitude. Take out is easy. Overlooks golf course. Definitely worth a try, especially if you are on property.

Zigzag Mountain Cafe

Reviewed By lost_bobcat

This cozy little place is both a bakery, a store, gift shop and restaurant. There are 4 tables along the window next to the river, grab one of those, we did. We got the lumberjack and split it, very big pancakes, eggs, polish sausage and breakfast potatoes. The portion was plenty for both of us. Huge pancake (1 each), now these pancakes are not cakey, but kinda undercooked in the middle, they say it is what makes them famous. Not much for my wife, but potates were with peppers and onions and great, eggs perfect, sausage huge. Coffee good, and service great. Small place, only a couple of people working a variety of stuff. They also have a nice reading area with a fireplace. Something for everyone and the prices are great if you consider splitting a meal.

This place certainly serves up the ski/snowboard/mountain biking atmosphere. Easy access of U.S. 26, the restaurant provides excellent burgers and, of course, wraps. Good selection of local craft beers and other interesting beverages. Friendly place with ready-to-please staff.

The menu here is very large, with something good to please most everyone. Calzones, dinner salads, and ravioli were very good. The marinara is especially flavorful. Location is a rustic, large log cabin-type building, with lots to look at on the walls!

We stayed at the nearby Mount Hood RV resort, and came by for lunch. Everything is made from scratch and tastes like home-made. Sandwiches were good, fries great and coleslaw exceptional. The service is very friendly. We came back another day to eat breakfast which did not disappoint. If you are looking to eat hash browns like Mamma used to make, look no further! Definitely worth a visit or two, and more.

Rendezvous Grill

Reviewed By richgale

If you are near Welches, along The Mount Hood highway (11:30am to 9:00pm), make this your place to eat!!! After golf @ The Three Nines (in Welches), we were the 1st lunch customers at The Rendezvous Grill. Clean, comfortable, colorful seating inside and outdoor garden patio. They advertise "serious food in a not-so-serious place" and this is (indeed) the ambience. Polite, welcoming, efficient service (it is a place that brings you ice water and your drinks promptly). We ordered wine and the burger with salad--split. Liz (a super waitress) brought us 2 plates & this food was gourmet delicious (as in fresh and REALLY GOOD). The Rendezvous Grill does have seriously good food and a happy, welcoming atmosphere. 5.0 Excellent.
