MBFG is outstanding. Terrific choice.

My personal favorite is LeMont across the street. IMO it is the best in the city.

Monterey Bay tried and failed with an outpost down here in Tysons Corner, Virginia, a few years ago. It wasn't bad, but it didn't last long. Not sure what they were thinking with the intended expansion....

Le Mont was a disappointment. Nice view, average food.

My go to is Altius.

My go to is Altius.

Altius is the old Georgetown Inn under new ownership. I have not been there.

Probably Altius. Even at that, you're really paying for the view. Their food should be better considering the prices. Pretty much everything else up there is stodgy, not reasonably up on dining trends.

My real advice would be a drink(s) on the deck at the Grandview Saloon, then head off the hill for much better food/value for dinner.

I remember the Tin Angel.

Yeah the Lemont sucks. My fiancé’s old company had their Christmas party there every year. Good time... but the food was bad. I figured it may have been due to serving a party of people at once.. prepped ahead of time, etc...

So we went back for table service on our own and it was worse.

You’re essentially paying for the view. Not uncommon to see Chip Ganassi there. Otherwise, if you’re hungry you’ll be more satisfied hitting up the Golden Corral in Robinson.

Hands down Monterey bay.

Georgetown used to be good.

 

[Nittany Ziggy]

I recommend Altus. I’ve eaten there several times and have never been disappointed. I haven’t been there in 6 months, however.

 

[wbcincy]

Sorry, I couldn’t afford to eat at any of those places while I was living on Mt washington. But I did spent a lot of time at Redbeards Mountain Resort and Yacht Club!

INMO, go for the view but go somewhere else for the food.
Just wasn't impressed with either.

I remember the Tin Angel.

Back in the day, that is where I would take a date to impress her........... or at least have a chance to impress her.....

 

[psuro]

Georgetown Inn still around?

 

[GregInPitt]

Georgetown Inn still around?

Nope

 

[tgar]

My vote would also be Altius. But Both a excellent for a special celebration type dinner.

 

[UNCPSUFAN]

Ditto on Altius for the food itself.

 

[ThePennsyOracle]

Sheesh. No mention of Packs and Dogs?

 

[Norm Petersin]

Monterey Bay is great
