Tree Room

Top choice in Wasatch Mountains


Sundance's top-flight restaurant, Tree Room, is a study in rustic-mountain chic – with a big tree trunk in the middle of the room. Here the changing modern-American menu items are as artfully presented as the chichi clientele. From choice lamb loin and pepper steak to wonderful scallop starters, you'd be hard-pressed to find a better meal this side of San Francisco.
