Honorable Mentions in Deer Valley
I recently had lunch on the deck at Royal Street Café in Deer Valley’s Silver Lake Village and it was amazing. I took my 82 year old Dad and he said he had the best turkey burger he has ever eaten in his life (and he lives in Los Angeles, a food Mecca). I also love the patio at the St. Regis in Deer Crest for lunch, brunch and cocktails. The Glitretind at Stein Eriksen Lodge at Deer Valley is also a home run. We will never run out of great patios to enjoy our summer in the mountains!
These are the places I tend to visit over and over during the summer months. Did I miss one of your favorites? If so, please add in the comments!
