Rafters Smokehouse - Enumclaw

I highly recommend this amazing lunch spot on the mountain! The pork belly BLT and grilled cheese with tomato soup are must-tries. The staff was fantastic and the drinks were delicious.

The restaurant is expensive for the low quality of food they provide. Their specialty dish is smoked brisket, but it was extremely dry. Not recommended!

We ate lunch there on Sunday Dec 12, 2021. It is a relatively small restaurant, but their kitchen is either undersized or understaffed lead time from placing an order (as simple as hamburger and mac and cheese) was 40 to 45 minutes. We arrived at 11:20 am and they were already out of all chicken plates and sandwiches. Waitresses try hard to get food and checks delivered to guests as quickly as they can, but there is only that much that they can do if kitchen is way behind. Food was OK, better than the total garbage typical for ski resorts, but less thrilling than one would expect for the price and worse than one generally expects from a full service restaurant. One generally wants to get a quick but filling meal at a ski resort and go back to skiing. This is not it. Neither speed nor food quality is there. Nothing to write home about .

I hope they improve their food quality for the price they charge otherwise they will be known as a nasty overpriced food place

Should have read reviews first. Server is nice, beer is good, Cesar salad is meh with less than fresh Romain and uninspiring croutons
