We haven't eaten here yet but know people who have and they love it for the local food and delicious mixed drinks. It's hidden in an alley and a little hard to find, but that's part of it's allure.

Closer than Sugar Hollow and more accessible for those who aren't up for rougher hiking, most of this trail near Monticello is on a boardwalk. There are side trails you can take up for a more athletic trip up the mountain.
