For 29+ years “The Grill” has become a must-have destination meal for seasonal visitors and a welcome gathering spot full-time residents up and down the Valley. Located in the historic Ed Williams House built in 1885, on the corner of East Avenue and Fifth Street, The Grill receives continued accolades, including being selected one of the “eight best Ski town restaurants” by Snow Country Magazine with “food rivaling Manhattan’s best”. The Ketchum Grill was founded in 1991 and is an extension of Scott and Anne Mason’s hard work and creative talents in the kitchen. But it is even more. It also represents what is best in “American Cuisine” – local and seasonal richness combined with their passion for food throughout the world, great service, atmosphere, and most of all the community of sharing a meal with one another. Open seven nights a week at 5:00 pm, you’ll find house-made breads and desserts, fruit-wood grilled meats, Idaho venison and lamb, fish, small pizzas, seasonal variety, nightly specials and an awarding winning wine list and great selection of micro-brews..

With three restaurants all located within downtown Ketchum, the decision to slowly step away from the grill has come with it’s own set of challenges. While over this period of five years the weight will bear more heavily on the shoulders of a new owner.

While it has been an absolute dream owning and running the Ketchum Grill, Scott & Anne will slowly be transitioning away from ownership.

This void will be filled one of their very best, Kaari Harlamert.

& New visions

Kaari has taken on the role of part-owner with the agreement of obtaining full ownership over the course of five years. Kaari , originally hailing from Salt Lake City, has called Ketchum home for nearly XXX years. Seeking a quieter lifestyle , with more access to the outdoors she and her husband moved to Ketchum along with their two dogs.

Kaari’s relationship with the Mason’s has been built over tha

with numerous years of experience within the industry, Kaari fell naturally into a management positions at the sister restaurant , Town Square Tavern, run by the youngest Mason sibling, Lyndsey.

Kaari spent three years managing at the Tavern, before this opportunity arose.

While the Mason’s may be transitioning away from the grill, they will always be available to provide guidance and assistance when needed.
