A bit more upscale than most Winter Park restaurants. Great for a date night. Casual dress is fine, it's a ski-town!

Ski and snowboard rentals
Renting at the mountain is more expensive but offers the bonus of overnight ski/snowboard storage, link here. Highly recommend going the afternoon before (after 3pm) to get fitted so you don’t spend your first morning waiting in line. They also offer an in-home fitting where techs come to you.
Renting in town tends to be a better value and a quicker process. Check out Christy’s Sports. Christy’s Sports (Skis) and their sister store directly above them PowderTools for snowboard. and Epic tend to have the widest selection. These shops are located on the shuttle route.
