Taking the place of the old Bullwheel, Rafters returns to its namesake roots but with the updated feel and fire of a hometown barbeque bar. Featuring an in-house smoker and regionally sourced meats from Painted Hills beef, Carlton Farms pork and Draper Valley chicken, our slow-smoked, hand-sliced meats match up with a whiskey-heavy cocktail menu plus a deep tap handle selection to wash it down.
They have trashed this longterm establishment. You have to wait in a line for food even if you have a table. Ordering took 45minutes in a line while the rest of the group had to wait at a table. Ordering shouldn't take this long, especially when the food comes out 5 minutes later. It shows the fault is on the ordering system, not the delivery side. No pitchers of beers and you have to leave your table again to order at a different location. Nachos no longer have a real cheese. The ultimates kicker after a linf wait. This place has become the bottom of the barrel. Take your money to the elk.

Food was pretty good. Prices were a tad high, which was to be expected. The live music could have been quieter. Seating was plentiful.

I’m a little surprised by the low rating The Rafters Smokehouse has. I felt like the food was better than to be expected up in the mountain. Staff is SO friendly. If you go during the lunch rush hour, you’re gonna have to wait awhile. From my two days on the mountain I’ve noticed that this place is busy from 12-1:45. So if you don’t want to wait for an hour+ try to go before or after. Granted this review is based on weekday visits. As for the price, I guess I know it’s gonna cost me, so I wasn’t shocked. I don’t mind paying for the cost of food with it being better than traditional bar food and friendly staff. Pro tip: Open a tab when you order. The runners will be able to get you anything you need without having to wait in line again!

I wish I could give it 0 star. Crystal dinning options is a disaster and this place is worst of them. 30 min after we ordered and waited I went to the guy who was taking the order and he said he forgot to add my entree and he was like oh maybe I didn’t push the button or forgot to do it.
