OK, much more than 1 restaurant--but they're all good. It is a 5 star hotel, so don't expect cheap. Maybe particularly recommend the Summit for just good American/farm-to-table type fare, or The Golden Bee for both good pub fare & a fun Karaoke scene.

A privately-own wonder of nature, but worth the price of admission for beautiful scenery. Nice cool place on a hot summer's day.
