Restaurant in Park City, United States
High-Desert Cooking, Mountain Register
Chimayo on Main Street is one of Park City's easier bookings, which makes it a practical late-night or spontaneous-dinner option when other kitchens are closing down. It won't compete with Riverhorse or Tree Room on ambition, but it offers central location and low booking friction — useful credentials in a resort town where availability disappears fast during ski season.
Getting a table at Chimayo is easier than at most of Main Street's better-known spots, which makes it worth considering seriously for a late-night meal or a spontaneous dinner after a day on the mountain. Booking difficulty is low by Park City standards, so if you find yourself looking for a place at 9 PM when other kitchens are winding down, Chimayo becomes a practical answer rather than just a backup.
The address — 368 Main St , puts Chimayo squarely in the middle of Park City's main dining corridor. Spatially, Main Street venues in this stretch tend to occupy narrow, vertically arranged rooms with bar seating at the front and dining further in; that layout rewards arriving early for counter seats if you want energy, or pushing to the back if you want a quieter table. For solo diners or couples, the bar area is typically the better call at Chimayo for a late sitting. Groups of four or more should call ahead and ask specifically about table configuration, since Main Street layouts rarely accommodate large parties without planning.
As a late-night option in Park City, Chimayo fills a gap. High West Distillery & Saloon tends to close earlier or pivot to a bar-only format late in the evening; Riverhorse Cafe and Tree Room both skew toward earlier reservation windows and higher price points. If you are arriving in Park City late, or want to eat after skiing rather than before, Chimayo's accessibility and central position give it a functional edge over more formal alternatives.
Park City is not a city that lacks for dining options , see our full Park City restaurants guide for the wider picture , but it does lack venues that combine central location, walkability, and late availability without requiring a weeks-out booking. That is Chimayo's competitive position: not the destination meal, but a reliable, easy-to-access option when the schedule doesn't allow for advance planning.
For food and travel enthusiasts benchmarking Park City against broader U.S. dining: the city sits in an interesting tier. It punches above its population size on dining quality during ski season, driven by visitor demand and resort economics. You are not comparing Chimayo to Le Bernardin in New York City or The French Laundry in Napa, but the local competitive set , Yuta, 350 Main Brasserie, Apex , is stronger than most mountain towns its size. Chimayo holds its own in that set on accessibility and positioning, even where specific data on its menu and pricing is not available in our record.
One practical note: the address prefix in our data shows a formatting character before the street number, which suggests the listing may have been imported with a data anomaly. If you are navigating, use 368 Main St, Park City, UT 84060 directly. There is no phone number or website in our current record, so for the most current hours and reservation availability, a direct walk-in confirmation or a search for the venue's current contact details is advisable before making a special trip.
Chimayo sits on Main Street in central Park City, which makes it easy to reach on foot from most accommodation. Booking is direct compared to higher-profile neighbours like Riverhorse Cafe or RIME Seafood & Steak. If you are new to Park City dining and want a no-stress entry point on Main Street, Chimayo's low booking friction and central position make it a reasonable first stop. For a more ambitious first meal, 501 On Main or Apex offer stronger credentials where available data supports a clearer verdict.
Booking difficulty is rated easy, which means same-day or next-day availability is realistic for most of the year. During peak ski season , January through March , and Sundance Film Festival week, even the more accessible Main Street venues fill faster, so 48 hours ahead is a reasonable buffer. You do not need to plan weeks out the way you would for Lazy Bear in San Francisco or Atomix in New York City. Walk-ins are likely viable outside peak periods.
Main Street Park City venues in this format typically work well for parties of two to four without advance notice. For groups of five or more, contact the venue directly before arriving , Main Street room layouts rarely seat large parties without some arrangement. Our current record does not include a phone number or website, so a direct visit or a current web search for contact details is the practical path. For group dining with confirmed private room options, Riverhorse Cafe or Yuta are worth checking.
Specific menu data is not in our current record, so we cannot make dish-level recommendations without risking inaccuracy. What we can say: if the cuisine type is in the Mexican or Southwestern register that the name suggests, look for grilled proteins and regional preparations as the more reliable indicators of kitchen strength in a mountain resort setting. For venues where we have confirmed dish-level data, see Alberto's Mexican Restaurant as a comparison point in the Park City Mexican dining category.
No dress code data is in our record. Main Street Park City venues at this location tier are generally smart-casual: ski towns run relaxed on dress expectations, and a clean layer above your base layers is typically sufficient. If you are coming from the slopes, a quick change is advisable but a jacket-and-tie standard is not expected here. Higher-end options like Tree Room sit closer to resort-smart, so calibrate accordingly if you are deciding between venues on a given evening.
No specific dietary accommodation data is available in our record. For confirmed dietary handling, contacting the venue directly before arrival is the only reliable approach , our current record does not include a phone number or website. As a general principle, Main Street Park City restaurants serving a high-volume resort clientele tend to have some flexibility on common restrictions (vegetarian, gluten-free), but that is category-level context, not a Chimayo-specific guarantee. If dietary accommodation is a hard requirement, venues with current online menus give you a clearer answer before you commit.
