The Jordanelle side of Deer Valley now has places to eat out, and nearly all of them are inside hotels. Canopy by Hilton opened four food and drink venues at Deer Valley East Village in September 2026. The Grand Hyatt up the road already runs seven. The things you might have expected first, a ski-lodge food hall and a street of shops and restaurants, are on a later schedule. Deer Valley moved the East Village Lodge food hall to the 2027/28 winter. The village's commercial core is planned for more than 70 shops, restaurants and dining spots across more than 180,000 square feet, with openings aimed at the 2028/29 ski season.
So for the next two winters, a dinner close to home for Hideout Canyon residents probably means a hotel dining room. Both hotels say plainly that locals are part of the plan. The best time to take them up on it is right now, in the weeks between the end of summer and Deer Valley's Dec. 5 opening day.
What opens when on the Jordanelle side
Deer Valley's own updates spell out the schedule. Here it is in one place, since the order is what shapes the next two seasons.
| What | Status as of October 2026 |
|---|---|
| Grand Hyatt Deer Valley restaurants | Open since the hotel opened in late 2024 |
| Jordanelle Ridge Barn & Café, Heber City | Open since June 20, 2026 |
| Alpine Attic rooftop at Canopy | Open since Aug. 21, 2026 |
| Canopy's Mountain Provisions, Tavolona, Fornetto | Open since Canopy's September 2026 debut |
| Deer Valley 2026/27 ski season | Targeted for Dec. 5, conditions permitting |
| East Village Lodge food hall and Park Peak Lodge dining | Planned for winter 2027/28 |
| East Village shops and restaurants | Targeted for the 2028/29 ski season |
The Park Peak Lodge line matters as much as the East Village one. Deer Valley says the lodge's core and shell will be finished by fall 2026, but the dining areas, restaurant and bar will be built out over the 2026/27 winter, so on-mountain dining there also waits a year. Until then, the hotels are the ones feeding this side of the resort.
Canopy built its kitchens with neighbors in mind
TownLift's report on the opening put it directly: Canopy's venues "are designed to serve both locals and out-of-town guests." The hotel is at 2288 West Deer Hollow Road. All four venues are run by executive chef Scott Rackliff, who worked at New York's Eleven Madison Park and Daniel before moving to Utah.
The sourcing is local too. Rackliff named Wasatch Meats, PaMaw Farms and Heber Cheese as suppliers, and said the team built those relationships by visiting the businesses several times.
"When trying different places, we go multiple times to ensure consistency and quality are always there. Through this process, we also build real relationships with the owners and teams at these places." Scott Rackliff, speaking to TownLift
The four venues cover different times of day, which is why one building can handle a coffee run, a Tuesday dinner and a Saturday nightcap.
Mountain Provisions is the all-day café, listed open daily from 6 a.m. to 6 p.m. It pours Park City Roasters coffee and serves house-made pastries, sourdough breakfast sandwiches and grain bowls. Its stromboli comes in an insulated sleeve that keeps it hot, and Rackliff said it was made to be eaten on the chairlift.
Tavolona is the flagship Italian trattoria. Its name comes from the Italian word for table, and the menu works for one diner or for family-style sharing. Italian-born chef Daniele Uditi, a co-founder of the Los Angeles pizza restaurant Pizzana, wrote the original menus. Dishes include Crudo di Ricciola with Calabrian chili oil, Tortelloni Ricotta e Spinaci and Branzino al Forno. It is listed for breakfast, lunch and dinner every day.
Fornetto is the more casual room, with Uditi's pizza dough, Venetian cicchetti, live sports, and Utah beer from breweries including T.F. Brewing and RoHa. Rackliff's favorite dish there is the meatball smash burger, made with Tavolona's signature meatball recipe and finished with Parmigiano-Reggiano, fior di latte and San Marzano pomodoro sauce.
Alpine Attic is the rooftop lounge, open since Aug. 21. Its Wagyu Salisbury steak is a take on the TV dinners of Rackliff's childhood, served on a plate shaped like a TV dinner tray. The Wagyu shepherd's pie uses beef from Wasatch Meats and comes in a camping tray.
Why October and November are the window
The published off-season schedule shows how much shorter the evenings are before winter. In the Oct. 1 hours roundup from Gastronomic SLC, which reprinted the hotel's release, Fornetto runs Tuesday through Saturday from 2 to 10 p.m. Alpine Attic is open only Friday and Saturday from 4 to 11 p.m. Both are expected to add days and hours for the winter season.
Alpine Attic bills itself as Deer Valley's spot for sunset drinks and après-ski. Canopy is near the Jordanelle Express Gondola, so once lifts open the rooftop will be serving the ski day as well as its neighbors. Deer Valley has set a resort-wide opening target of Dec. 5. From early October, that leaves about nine weeks of the shorter fall schedule before the lifts start turning.
A few practical points before you go:
- Tavolona and Alpine Attic take reservations through Resy, linked from their own sites.
- Hilton lists self-parking at $25 a day with no valet, and it does not mention a restaurant-only rate or validation. The hotel's number is 435-731-9120.
- The hours above are from a schedule published at opening, so call ahead before a weeknight trip.
The Grand Hyatt's quieter case for locals
Canopy is the newcomer. The Grand Hyatt Deer Valley at 1702 Glencoe Mountain Way has been open since late 2024, and its dining has spread into a group of smaller rooms. One of them makes the same pitch to locals that Canopy does.
- Hidden Ace is a 21-and-over bar listed Tuesday through Saturday from 5 to 11 p.m., and it explicitly welcomes local drop-ins.
- Sushi by Scratch Restaurants: Park City is also 21 and over, with seatings at 5, 7:15 and 9:30 p.m. Wednesday through Sunday. Hyatt strongly recommends booking.
- The Living Room serves High Chocolate daily from 2:30 to 4:30 p.m. and needs a reservation at least 24 hours ahead, which makes it an easy plan for visiting family.
- The Lounge at Remington Hall is listed daily for lunch from 11:30 a.m. to 2:30 p.m., with the bar open until 11 p.m. Remington Hall itself lists breakfast and dinner, but Hyatt's page and the restaurant's own site disagree on Sunday dinner, so check before planning a Sunday.
Between Canopy's four venues and the Hyatt's rooms, sushi by seating, Italian, a rooftop and a cocktail bar are all on the same side of the resort, where in past years the nearest dinner meant a drive into town.
The one table outside a hotel
The exception is a café run by another residential community. Jordanelle Ridge opened its Barn & Café at 2013 Coyote Canyon Parkway in Heber City with a free public celebration on June 20. It serves sandwiches, salads and specialty coffee. Cody Winterton of Raintree Investment Corporation, the master developer, called it "the community's first cafe." When it opened, the posted hours were 7 a.m. to 5 p.m. every day except Tuesday. The same community's trail system covers more than 70 miles of hiking and mountain biking near the reservoir.
Other places are planned but not yet open. Keetley Square's leasing site describes a 37,200-square-foot shopping village at Jordanelle Parkway and Alpine Avenue, with grocery, dining and resort retail, and a planned fall 2026 opening. It has not named tenants or a specific opening day. Closer to home, Hideout's Wildhorse agreement, approved in November 2025, includes a restaurant and bar, a specialty grocer and a café, with commercial development expected in 2027. Until those open, and until the East Village Lodge food hall arrives in the 2027/28 winter, the hotel tables at East Village are where dinner on the Jordanelle side happens.
If you're thinking about a homesite on this shore, the team at Carlos Bocanegra would be glad to show you Golden Eagle on a fall afternoon. That leaves time to watch the light move across the reservoir before a table at Tavolona or a Friday on the Alpine Attic rooftop. Schedule a personal tour.
