Steakhouse
The Swiss Restaurant is close to our property and we frequent it often. My husband and I split their huge BBQ pork chop dinner (comes with two chops). We order an extra dinner plate so each of us can pick our own soup/salad and sides. Yum!

Great cuts of aged beef. Make sure to try the BBQ artichoke appetizer. My favorite dish to order is the Lobster and Filet. A little pricey but very tasty!

This place has been around for for over 50 years. You don't last that long without doing something right. If you're going during the weekend, I would HIGHLY recommend reservations and even then prepare to wait. We normally don't sit in the dining room, but prefer sitting at the bar and ordering a large steak plate and cocktails. Warning: You will get a funny look if you order meat well done or ask for A1/BBQ sauce. Meat in this area is meant to be eaten medium to medium rare.

Down home breakfast. Portions are big enough for my husband and I to split. My favorite? The veggie omelette with bacon added.

Most beautiful panoramic views with the best (and most expensive) brunch in the area. Bottomless mimosas and bloody mary's, along with crab legs, oyster shooters, carving and omelette station. My favorite is their chile verde and carnitas taco station with homemade tortillas. Reservations are suggested. If you're unable to get a reservation, get there before 10 am to get in line.
