A friend put this ski-lodge Christmas pop-up on my radar, and after seeing all the adorable videos…read moreand photos, we came to check it out around 7pm on a Thursday and getting a table was easy. Within minutes of walking in, a group of 8 lined up for a ski shot at the bar: snow machine blasting, everyone cheering, so much fun and yes, I filmed it for them. This place looks even better in-person than online, I did not feel catfished by the online posts I saw of it. The whole place is a vibe. The decor hits festive and fun without sliding into tacky. Even though it's technically outdoors, the heaters are no joke, you could show up in a skirt and t-shirt and be perfectly comfortable. Whoever is in charge of this heating situation, you nailed it! Junior was our bartender and he was fantastic, friendly, and quick. Now, the drinks: The Bigfoot is basically a dessert disguised as a cocktail. It comes topped with this warm, doughnut-like block drizzled in chocolate. Easily my favorite of the night. The Snow Bunny leans lighter, not too sweet, and the cute little "ears" it comes with are such a fun touch. We also tried the Not-So Shirley Temple, and I slipped in a glass of red wine between all the festive drinks. For food, we ordered the tosti, mushroom bisque, and fries, and everything was good. My only gripe: they close at 10pm, which feels early for a place this fun. Wish they kept the party going later because the energy here deserves more runway but Graceland (speakeasy inside HQ gastropub) is just 1 min walk around the corner, def recommend going there to keep the party going for another hour! Their Xmas decor is fire. Overall, a festive, cozy, high-spirited stop. Absolutely worth coming back, especially for another Bigfoot.

Man nailed the decor for sure I wish I got more pics but the place was crowded and no one wants to be rude and take pics of people surrounding the area. They had benches with cute pillow decor and cute theme accessories. The menu is looking thru viewfinders! So cute! The drinks prices ranged but mainly 18 each. The music is 80's. The servers are in 80s outfits. They have shot skis. They also have Snow which fall (aka bubbles) about every 30 mins I think. It is timed not too sure on that. The searing is small indoor the event pop up area but many outdoor places and some indoor. The bathrooms have a code. Just ask for it. The decor of Christmas is indoor seating area. The Ski lodge had Amazing decor!! Great Hype here! Loved it! We did t make reservations but we still were able to be in. Also feel bad for the guests at the hotel since we are in the middle of it. I Totally recommend this! Take a few friends the Hype is real!!!!

They would be even better with milk. But great and quick service and such a different sweets dessert. Definitely want to check out their ube milk tea on day!

The flavors were absolutely fantastic -- so delicious that no one could believe they were gluten-free, dairy-free, and dye-free. Liz was an absolute dream to work with from start to finish. She's warm, responsive, incredibly talented, and you can tell she pours her heart into everything she bakes. Finding someone who creates treats that meet our dietary needs and taste this good feels like striking gold. From here on out, Liz will be my go-to girl for all things gluten-free, dairy-free, dye-free, and beautifully made. Highly recommend Tree of Life for any special occasion!

Without compromising any of the flavor, her meals are also gluten and dairy free (amongst other things). She is accommodating to other food restrictions, too. You can order her meal prep online and pick up at the local farmer's market or in some cases you can get local delivery. I love getting her breakfast chia puddings. She makes her own oat free granola (and a special nut free one for some). After getting to know Liz, I hired her for an intimate New Year's Eve dinner. We talked beforehand about what I wanted, but she helped me complete the menu and really make it fancy. She showed up early and in a cute and professional chef jacket. She made amazing dinner, drinks, appetizers, and dessert. And cleaned up. She made the whole night!!!!! tldr: chef liz makes fire healthy gluten free meals. get her meal prep or hire her for a private event
