On Main Street this week, the dark windows are scattered and there's no clear logic to them. Shabu at 442 Main is closed. Firewood, a few doors down at 306 Main, is also closed, and so is Courchevel Bistro at the corner of Heber Avenue. A block over on Park Avenue, High West is still pouring.
Park City's restaurants come back on a schedule set by the mountains. Kitchens near Park City Mountain's base areas return when that resort plans to open. Deer Valley's dining rooms return in steps leading up to its own opening day. Downtown fills in last. The schedule below comes from the fall hours and closures roundup Dishing PC published on Oct. 19, compiled from dates shared through the Park City Area Restaurant Association.
Next Week Brings the Four Quietest Nights
The thinnest stretch of the shoulder season runs Monday, Nov. 16, through Thursday, Nov. 19. High West Distillery & Tasting Room and High West Saloon close Nov. 16 and stay closed through Dec. 1. The Nelson Cottage by High West, at 651 Park Ave., closes the next day, Nov. 17, and reopens Dec. 3.
That leaves a lot of the usual list closed during those four nights:
- KITA, Pendry Park City in Canyons Village: dinner closed Nov. 1–19
- Shabu, 442 Main St.: closed Nov. 1–19
- The Hirsch, 7520 Royal St.: closed Oct. 25–Nov. 25
- 7880 Club, Stein Eriksen Residences: closed Oct. 26–Nov. 23
- Cena Ristorante, The Chateaux Deer Valley: dining room closed through Dec. 1 for a full renovation
- La Stellina, Deer Valley Drive East: closed Nov. 9–Dec. 4
- Firewood on Main: closed Oct. 24–Dec. 2
- Courchevel Bistro, 201 Heber Ave.: closed from Oct. 24 into early December
- High West Saloon and Tasting Room, 703 Park Ave.: closed Nov. 16–Dec. 1
- The Nelson Cottage by High West: closed Nov. 17–Dec. 2
Several Deer Valley spots are also off for now. The roundup lists Carpenter Café and Royal Street Café as closed for the season, and The Brass Tag and The Sticky Wicket as taking a seasonal break. None of the four had a reopening date listed.
The Reopening Order Follows the Lifts
Here are the published reopening dates next to the two resort targets:
| Date | What returns | Where | On the mountain |
|---|---|---|---|
| Fri., Nov. 20 | KITA dinner, Shabu | Canyons Village, Main Street | Park City Mountain's target opening day |
| Tue., Nov. 24 | 7880 Club | Stein Eriksen Residences | Thanksgiving week |
| After Wed., Nov. 25 | The Hirsch | Royal Street | Thanksgiving is Nov. 26 |
| Wed., Dec. 2 | High West Saloon and Tasting Room, after a closure that ends Dec. 1; Cena Ristorante's renovation closure also runs through Dec. 1 | Park Avenue, Royal Street | Between the two openings |
| Thu., Dec. 3 | Firewood, The Nelson Cottage | Main Street, Park Avenue | Between the two openings |
| Early December | Courchevel Bistro | Main and Heber | Between the two openings |
| Sat., Dec. 5 | La Stellina, nightly 5–10 p.m. | Deer Valley | Deer Valley's planned opening day |
Both resort dates are targets that depend on conditions, and each restaurant's date is one it shared in October. The roundup asks diners to check with a restaurant directly before going, and that advice matters most in the days around a reopening.
Canyons and Main Street Return With Park City Mountain
The first two kitchens to come back sit at opposite ends of Park City Mountain's footprint. KITA is inside Pendry Park City at 2417 W. High Mountain Road in Canyons Village. Shabu is on historic Main Street, close to the Town Lift side of the resort. Both reopen Nov. 20.
Nov. 20 is also the first day on Park City Mountain's published operating schedule, which runs Nov. 20, 2026, through April 19, 2027, depending on weather and conditions. In early October, The Park Record reported that the resort was getting its snowmaking plan ready, repairing water pipes and checking equipment so it could use good weather windows. The resort said it aimed to open as much terrain as quickly and safely as possible.
For anyone planning a night out, this means the end of the four quiet nights is tied to the same date as the resort's opening.
Silver Lake Opens Its Dining Rooms Before Its Mountain Does
Deer Valley doesn't plan to open until Dec. 5, but most of the restaurants up Royal Street come back sooner. The 7880 Club at Stein Eriksen Residences, 6702 Stein Circle, reopens Tuesday, Nov. 24. The Hirsch, a short way down at 7520 Royal St., ends its closure on Nov. 25, the day before Thanksgiving. At The Chateaux, 7815 Royal St., Cena Ristorante is closed through Dec. 1 for a full renovation, with a new space planned for the ski season.
So Silver Lake reopens for Thanksgiving week, about ten days before the lifts behind it are scheduled to run. Deer Valley's Sept. 16 announcement put opening day at Dec. 5, conditions permitting. The resort's Kids Ski Free promotion, announced Oct. 13, runs Dec. 5–11 as a start to the 26/27 season.
Up the hill at Stein Eriksen Lodge, the closures never applied. The Glitretind serves dinner nightly from 6 to 9 p.m. and Sunday brunch from 11 a.m. to 2:30 p.m. Troll Hallen Lounge is open daily from 7 a.m. to midnight.
Downtown Fills In Last, and La Stellina Waits for Deer Valley
The longest closures are in the center of town. High West Saloon and the Tasting Room come back after their Dec. 1 closure ends. Firewood and The Nelson Cottage reopen Thursday, Dec. 3. Courchevel Bistro returns sometime in early December, in the historic Coal & Lumber building where Main Street meets Heber Avenue.
La Stellina, at 2290 Deer Valley Drive East, is the last on the schedule. It reopens Dec. 5, the day Deer Valley plans to open, and moves from its fall Wednesday-through-Sunday schedule to nightly service from 5 to 10 p.m.
The Kitchens That Stayed Open
All through the shoulder season, a steady group kept serving. These are the fall hours each one shared for the Oct. 19 roundup:

At Deer Valley, Deer Valley Café stays open daily from 8 a.m. to 3:30 p.m. At the St. Regis, The St. Regis Bar and Brasserie 7452 are open daily from 11 a.m. to 10 p.m. RIME Seafood & Steak lists breakfast, lunch and dinner every day. Its four Sunday dinner closures ended with Nov. 8. In Deer Valley East Village, Canopy by Hilton opened in late August, and The Park Record lists its two sister restaurants, Tavolona and Fornetto, as open Tuesday through Saturday from 5 to 10 p.m. Tavolona also serves breakfast and lunch.
The reopening wave will end Dec. 5 with La Stellina, and one new place comes right after it. Tannin Bar, a neighborhood wine bar with a full food menu, has a grand opening set for Dec. 9 at Studio Crossing in Quinn's Junction, according to The Park Record.
