The food at Solitude, both on mountain and, especially, in the Village has just gone up many notches. We attended a wine dinner there at St Bernard's in December and it was spectacular. Ted Scheffler (food critic for SL City Weekly) seems to agree:

Most notably for those who know the SLC restaurant scene:

The food has gotten serious. Maybe I shouldn’t have been surprised, since the DeSeelhorst family—Solitude’s owners—have assembled a food and beverage dream team, of sorts.

At the core is longtime food and beverage pro Staffan Eklund, who oversees the on-mountain fare at eateries like Moonbeam Lodge, Sunshine Grill and so on. Down in the Village at Solitude, the much-honored Greg Neville—formerly of Lugano, Gastronomy and, at one time in the mid-’90s, Solitude itself—has assumed the role of food and beverage director. Neville was recently joined by Franck Peissel, who was executive chef at Franck’s and L’Avenue, and now dazzles diners at The Yurt. And, newcomer Josh Cornell worked for a time in Thomas Keller’s kitchen at New York’s Per Se restaurant, more recently cooking at Trio and Tsunami. Excellent managers like Jeff Foehr and Greg Olson complement the kitchen talent.
