Food and service is good but too costly for weekly visits.

We visited this restaurant after spending the day exploring Yosemite National Park to celebrate my birthday, and it was the perfect choice.

The location is beautiful, set above the golf course with lovely views of the surrounding forest. The food was excellent. We had the pistachio crusted salmon and the trio of mini burgers, both full of flavor and perfectly cooked.

But the real highlight of the evening was the service. The staff surprised me with a birthday song, and soon the entire restaurant joined in. It was such a warm and memorable moment. They even treated us to a complimentary dessert.

A wonderful experience all around and highly recommended.

We sat at the bar on Sat night. After a few requests to the bartenders, a kind, attentive waitress helped us clear the bar area from previous food and drinks. We ordered a few drinks, which bartender made. They were great. However, when she took our dinner order, the bartender misheard a few things. She didn't order our salads and she got one of our sides wrong. After our ribeyes were served, we asked her to cancel our salads, because she didn't put them in. It wasn't a loud bar, or a noise issue; she just barely looked at us when we talked. She quickly looked away after each time we spoke. Her service came across as curt and uncaring. It was somewhat busy, but it was just plain bad service in our opinion. The ribeyes were too charred, too fatty, and tough to eat. Not good at all, especially for the price of $45 each. With more attentive, caring service, we could have figured it all out. But the negative service experience combined with the subpar steaks, just contributed to a bad dinner, with good drinks.

We were so glad we found that place! We sat outside and had a wonderful view. The steak was huge! The vegetarian flatbread was delicious. Prices were totally fine. Service was fantastic.

We were driving from Yosemite National Park and decided to stop here just before closing. What a fantastic decision!

Even though we arrived late, the staff was absolutely wonderful—incredibly welcoming, attentive, and kind. They made us feel right at home.

I ordered the steak, and it was absolutely delicious! Perfectly cooked and full of flavor. My wife loved her meal as well. The atmosphere was cozy and inviting—the perfect way to end a day of exploring.

Thank you for such a warm welcome and an unforgettable dining experience. Highly recommended to everyone traveling through the area!

The food was delicious and we had some of the best service I’ve ever had. Our waitress (I think her name was Katie) was amazing. She was really busy and she was speed walking every time I saw her. Despite that, and the fact that it was close to closing time, she was so friendly and never made us feel rushed. The food was also really good. I got the pork chop and we had the chocolate cake for dessert. I’d definitely go back!

This place sits on a golf course but its by far the best place to go in the community. For a single guy like myself I enjoyed the ratio of woman over men.
The steak was outstanding but the service lacked. Waters weren't refilled and drink orders weren't taken. They honestly could have sold an extra $100 in drinks had they been on their game. Table of 7.
