A romantically inspired dining room built around its namesake tree -- mountain elegance doesn't get better than this. Rough-hewn logs, candlelight, and a tree that grows out the roof of the building. Plan to linger over dinner. Chef Jason Knibb cooks with organic ingredients, some grown at Sundance Farms, to create award-winning "seasonal mountain cuisine." Don't miss the fresh salad with home-grown herbs. The peekytoe crab and asparagus with herbed phyllo is a great appetizer. Another great dish is the grilled swordfish with vine-ripe tomatoes, pea shoots and white bean puree.
"Befitting its Sundance Resort home, Tree Room is the height of rustic elegance: Candlelight and white linen tablecloths enrich the rough-hewn, lodge look of the wood-heavy dining room; floor-to-ceiling windows overlooking a forest-scape and a tree growing through the restaurant's roof bring patrons comfortably close to nature. Western bric-a-brac and Native American art from celebrity-owner Robert Redford's private collection cap the cozy feel."
