Silver Fork Lodge is on the access road in Big Cottonwood Canyon, on the way to and from Brighton and Solitude resorts. It's a bit of a hole in the wall by outward appearance, by inside it's a friendly, rustic and charming place with a cool bar area and nice dining room. The menu is reasonably large, and there's some meat and game among the options. The wine list is large, though contains little that's interesting, but lots of people pleasers on it nonetheless. The Blistered Peppers and Jumbo Chicken Wings (real Buffalo-style) proved to be popular starters. The Wild Game Bolognese, Chicken Schnitzel and, Canyon Pepper Steak were all excellent.
My sister and I LOVED this place- the atmosphere was beautiful. The view was astounding. Great drinks! Their meatloaf was excellent. The pasta was delicious (it's easy for me to overindulge here!) They were super friendly. There was a 45 min wait, but they were kind enough to chat with us while we waited. The service was phenomenal! I basically chug my coca-cola, and the waitress was able to keep pace. I'm such a pain! Haha! They knew who ordered what food/drink and kept our breadbasket refilled. We're definitely coming back. This was an outstanding experience! Thank you so much!
We did not plan to stay at the lodge initially. We had a vacation rental not far but could not access it because of the snow. So we went to the lodge for the night hoping to be able to go our rental the following day. The staff has been so helpful and nice. The owner of the lodge who is also the mayor personally helped us access our vacation rental. The room was great with a beautiful view on the mountains, and the food at the restaurant very satisfying. Highly recommend the roasted carrots and smashed potatoes! We re very happy we found this place
Hidden gem that seems to be passed up by many tourists. We ate out of the beautiful patio that has a beautiful view of the canyon. Very friendly staff. Our local guide said to try the meatloaf and mashed potatoes and it was excellent. Every meal I saw around us looked very good! Wished I had more time to hang out on the patio..will definitely be back.
