My wife and I decided to enjoy a steak dinner at the Trading Post. The Rib Eye steak was cooked exactly how we requested medium rare for myself and rare for my wife the steak was delicious! The soup and salad was excellent. The atmosphere was rustic and cozy. Our waitress and the bartender were both friendly and professional. Thank you!

The meal was well under par but the worst factor about the dinner-out was management. The manager was extremely unprofessional and disrespectful, we have never had an interaction like this in a dining environment. At one point, she projected to her employees, "come here, we are going to have a life lesson"... no words to describe how our party felt and the rest of the restaurant patrons. We would never think about going to this establishment again.

Horrible food! I can’t believe how many good reviews this place has. Must be local support.
We’ve been going to trading post for years and the food has gone way downhill. Started off with some table bread that was rock hard. Ribs were over cooked and soaked with plain bbq sauce. Calamari was awful. Ravioli sauce was darn near Mexican salsa and the pasta itself was hard. How can you mess up ravioli? Veggies were cold and smothered with salt. The only decent thing was our side salads.
They try way too hard to be a 5 star fine dining restaurant. For the amount of money they charge they need

First of all...much better than the Seasons Bistro.. I’m up here working on the Creek Fire and I didn’t know this place even existed ‘til week 2 of work. It’s AMAZING! The food is so so good, but arguably better is the atmosphere and ambiance. Such a beautiful hidden gem. I’m sort of hesitant to even bring attention to this perfect place in hopes of not exposing it to keep its home town family friendly vibe. Our awesome waitress was Samantha and she is nothing short of a perfect and friendly person to enhance your already perfect dinner. Highly recommeded. 💙
