“Just finished my birthday dinner at Mountain Oaks Cafe in Oakhurst and WOW… highly recommend! The four girls, my husband, and I all ordered something different, and every single plate was absolutely packed with flavor. Hands down the best chicken fried steak I’ve ever had from a restaurant. The pull-apart ribs were perfectly tender and full of flavor, and the tri-tip was smoked to perfection. the youngest was completely lost in her pizza — which honestly looked amazing — and every bite around the table got rave reviews. The portions were huge too… we’re all heading home with lunch for tomorrow! If you’re anywhere near Oakhurst, do yourself a favor and check out Mountain Oaks Cafe. Great food, great portions, and a perfect birthday dinner. We’ll definitely be back!“

“Love the authentic food.“

“on a 10000 mile cross country trip and 1st time in Yosemite, staying at the Sierra Sky Ranch. they recommended SGB for lunch, and it did not disappoint. our hardest task was deciding what to choose as there were so many delicious items to choose from we decided on two different burgers and shared. both were delicious and cooked perfectly. the staff, energy, vibe and music were all fantastic. I would highly recommend SGB to all for a great meal and beer.“

“I highly recommend Idle Hour winery and kitchen in Oakhurst. I found out about the winery when looking for a place to eat in the area on the Internet and I’m so glad I did. It was one of my more memorable meals. I had one of their wines, which was outstanding with a salmon dinner accompanied by a very large salad. I usually don’t have dessert, but, being gluten-free, I decided to try their flourless chocolate cake. I’ve never had one I’ve particularly liked, but I doubt that I will be able to resist that dessert the next time I go for dinner, although I will have to try their Sunday brunch next.“

“Buckhorn's old western vibe is certainly appealing, but it's the truly delicious food coming from their kitchen that steals the show. You get the feeling their recipes are tried-and-true, consistently delivering satisfying and flavorful meals.
What really makes dining here special is the impressive array of sauces they offer. Forget basic condiments; Buckhorn provides thoughtful pairings that elevate each dish. I noticed a diverse selection, suggesting a real attention to flavor profiles. Whether it's a zesty dip for crispy jalapenos, a creamy tzatziki for the burger, or a tangy barbecue sauce, these little details demonstrate a commitment to a well-rounded and enjoyable experience. It's this kind of care that makes Buckhorn stand out. They're not just serving food; they're crafting a delicious experience, bite by flavorful bite and perfectly matched sauce. The simple execution was surprisingly effective.“

“Good if you just want something quick and easy. Good hamburgers. Service is fine. Love the old-time diner decorations.“

“This place is/was short staffed, but our server was working fast and furious, and he was very efficient. I highly recommend visiting this restaurant and giving them your business. The food was fresh, the coffee was shot, and the fruit cup was tasty.“

“Food and service were good. We sat on the patio overlooking the grounds and that was nice. Our server gave us great recommendations and was friendly. We had the salad with goat cheese, chicken tacos, short rib pasta, grilled cheese and tomato soup, and the chocolate chip cookie and ice cream for dessert.“

“The pancakes were fluffy and delicious. The rest of the Super Slams and hamburger were good too. Got a Jr Birthday pancakes and bacon for my son who wanted the special toppings and ate it all. Compared to the food at our Yosemite luxury hotel, it was a bargain.

Shout out to our server, Jamie, who was very nice to our autistic son. Maybe we wanted the extra time to select from the menu, but we did not find the service to be particularly slow or inattentive to us.“
