Great view, very good service but, food was a challenge for them. First, they messed up my husbands order & had to re-make his black bean burger sandwich and, although my cavatappi Mac & cheese w/ BBQ pulled pork was tasty, half of the pulled pork was large hunks of fat. The waiter did offer to bring another dish but, we already had been waiting on my husbands food and didn’t want to wait any longer. But, it definitely was a beautiful view to dine over.

Our first time dining at Peaks Restaurant, so I wasn't sure what to expect. But we (my wife, daughters and myself) had a terrific experience. We were there for lunch and the food was exceptional. We will definitely dine at the Peaks Restaurant in the future.

Certainly not worth the money. The food was bland and a tad on cold when served. Salmon was fishy. Disappointed. The server was lovely though and attentive.

We first ordered the Bruschetta and it came out the same time as our drinks. It was just ok. Only 3 pieces and lots of field lettuce in the middle. I took 2 bites and here comes our dinner. Our whole meal time was 20 minutes. A restaurant this pricy should not be a quick dinner. We sat a little longer just to try to enjoy our experience. The food in the other place looked better and was a better deal with the package of the Tram.

The food came out very quickly. Apps,salad,dinner. There wasn’t time to enjoy. The salad was soaked in dressing and the steak just ok. Our waiter only came by once and when we needed something we had to ask for him This restaurant was pretty but only average I would not recommend. The menu is too fancy for where it is.

Obviously, the location is beautiful and makes the menu prices worth it. However, service was a little iffy. We waited about 10-15 minutes before anyone came over to our table. The spinach artichoke dip was amazing. I ordered the coconut curry and was very disappointed in the dish.
