Very rude customer service! We were doing a day trip and drove all the way up there and as the road is very windy and dangerous, we managed to get there a bit late. When we got there was around 3:30 pm so I went to this restaurant as this is the ONLY one up there and the lady was extremely rude.

The “amazing” view is just not worth being...
Read moreIt's the only restaurant in the area, next to one of the highest places in the valley. As such, you end up eating there by default. The food is fine. Nothing to write home about, but that's okay in my opinion. The views from the restaurant are incredible, and everyone is having a good time.
