From Fine Dining to Local Fare…
SWISS CHALET – Woodland Park
It sort of looks like a random restaurant on the outside, and, sort of is. But the food is great and the waitstaff is chill. What you lose in atmosphere you gain in serving size, which is big and will make you happy. The juicy salmon steak and fried avocado appetizer are a must! Entrees are $23 – $29.
