The Gateway And Lodge - THREE RIVERS

We dined at this restaurant in December with two adults and two children. While the view and the staff were fantastic, the food was extremely disappointing and overpriced. We ended up paying $110 for two kids' meals and two adult meals. The Alfredo, priced at $23, was quite poor, and the BBQ burger with fries was just mediocre—definitely worth only $10 to $12 at most, rather than $20. The child's chicken tender and fries were $10, and the red sauce pasta cost $17. Everyone ordered a soda. This was by far the least enjoyable dining experience we had during our trip. In hindsight, we would have preferred to revisit Sierra Subs for dinner, which was delicious. My husband remarked that it was the worst restaurant food he has ever had. We don’t mind spending money on a good meal, but this experience was just disheartening. However, I must reiterate that the view and the staff were truly wonderful.

First of all, I thank Jesse, our server, that he was so friendly and wonderful for our dinners we had there. We went to dinner on Monday evening in October, and my fiancée and I just had busy hours before. We didn't tell Jesse, but he couldn't have experienced it better. Without telling him, he felt like a special occasion. We told him before we left, and he said we should stop next night. Honestly, we had such a great experience for dinner that we decided! The owner of the gateway was there when we left the second night, and he made a point to congratulate us and celebrate us a special pleasure. Everyone at the gateway deserves an applause for service, food and atmosphere. We'll be 100% back. Thank you.

The breakfast brush was set and served immediately. The portions were large and delicious. It's pretty expensive, less than I thought it was for the area. The line for the red forests starts not far, great location for food before a long day or after. Forget it, they recommend reservations to be at the base and attached to a hotel, it must fill quickly

We dined here three nights in a row! We're absolutely in love with the outdoor seating and the breathtaking river views. We even spotted a bear from a safe distance while watching the river! The service was fantastic, and the food was incredible. Jessie was an outstanding server. From the hostess to the bartender, the whole experience was wonderful.

This was my third visit to the restaurant, and it has consistently been excellent. The food is delicious, and the service is even better. Everyone I spoke with was friendly and attentive. Additionally, the beautiful view of the river makes this location a perfect place to begin or conclude your journey.
