What an amazing find while we are staying in Mariposa. We went to the Giant Sequoia's and on our…read moreway we stopped at this "pre" planned Yelp spot. Parking is pretty easy. They have overflow towards the left when you drive up the incline. You wait to be seated. We were offered an inside table but requested a patio table instead. They accommodated us but it took an additional 10-15 minutes. It was WORTH the wait. The patio is nicely shaded and offers a better experience than say..... Denny's. I ordered their "fantastic" chicken fried steak, 2 eggs over easy, 2 pancakes, and country potatoes. Everything was great! Our server was an awesom dude. You will know it's him when he addresses you as "Amigo." Love you man! Coffee was good and strong and they offered shelf stable 1/2 & 1/2. They have Tobasco, Cholulu, and I believe he said Tapatio. I went with the Cholulu and it was an awesome addition to the CFS. We loved this place. It fueled us up for the grueling hike we did. 5* !!!!! So glad I scoped this place out on Yelp before our trip.

I've visited this spot many times when in the area. Lots of parking although this place gets really busy during dinner and peak times. This spot is pretty big inside with a bar area and a separate main dining area. Clean and well organized with lots of dining tables. Arrived early for this visit around 4:30pm to beat the dinner crowd. Chose to be seated in the main dining area which was still empty with only a couple tables taken. Provided with a menu and ordered the following: ***Meiomi Pinot Noir 5/5 - superb! $14 ***Bowl of clam chowder 5/5 - a MUST order, sooo flavorful!!! $12 A couple at the next table saw my bowl and asked about it, which I highly recommended and they agreed when they got their bowl. ***Hawaiian salmon kabob 5/5 - so delish! $15 ***Chicken marsala over pasta with veges 4/5 - very tasty! $28 For dessert, got a bruleed cheesecake bites ($9). It was sooo good!! 5/5 Staff are friendly with great customer service! Felicia has been my server and helped me during my last couple of visits. She is so cool! Will definitely visit again.

On our last day of family vacation in the Yosemite area we had dinner at Oakhurst grill. The…read morerestaurant was filled with the paintings landscapes and florals from the original owner and founder. We had a nice photo op with a huge wooden bear before coming in . Our party consisted of 5 adults one in a wheelchair and two young kids . This place was spacious , comfortable, and could easily accommodate all our needs. The food was good and the menu selection had something for everyone. We ordered pastas , burgers, appetizers, salad, soup, and also kids meals. Everything was good and came out in a timely manner. The service we received was exceptional and very much appreciated . Our server Robert was great and did an excellent job. He was friendly and knowledgeable. He made sure we had everything we needed and didn't miss a single thing. I would recommend this place to anyone in the area. It is good for large family groups and a great place for a nice dinner .

Their menu stated breakfast is served till 11am. We were told they stopped breakfast at 1040am today. I ordered the fish and chips with fried zucchini. The fried fish was coated in a crunchy beer batter. Fish was tender and moist except for some overcooked parts. Flavor was mostly of beer batter with a mild cod flavor. Good dish. Better than the frozen fish sticks from the supermarket. Fried zucchini was shaped like french fries. Batter was crunchy. I could barely taste the zucchini as there seemed to be more batter than zucchini. I prefer bigger pieces of zucchini and less batter. Ok dish. Fanta Pineapple soda was sweet and full of pineapple flavor. Very good. Server/Cashier was very nice and brought out our meals quickly.

Plenty of parking although this place gets busy during peak times. This spot is not big inside although there are 2 separate dining areas with several dining tables. There is also outside patio seating with a bar/counter table. Went in for lunch a lil after 11am and there was already a line. Ordered the following for to-go: ***3 Meat Plate 5/5 - $28 Tri-tip, sausage, chicken with bbq beans and baked potato casserole - sooo good and tender! ***Half-rack pork rib plate 5/5 - $25 With bbq beans - super delish!

This is actually one of the worst bbq spots I've been to…read more I haven't done Texas bbq yet, but I've been to a lot of spots across St Louis, Nashville, and Arizona. Literally every meat we got was dry, bland, and overcooked. You really have to try to mess up a brisket point, but they managed it. I've had juicier flats at normal spots than this point ever was. Pulled pork is also a really hard thing to mess up, but it was extremely dry too and had basically no flavor of its own. Feels like on days they goof up they should just drown everything in bbq sauce to cover it tbh. The sausage wasn't anything to rave about. The tri tip was cooked medium well and at least didn't seem like a select cut since it had some tenderness to it. But it barely had any smoke. You're genuinely better off making one at home. None of the meats were seasoned enough. Everything needed sauce. The sides didn't help either. The cole slaw had no noticeable dressing and looked like straight up salad mix from Sysco. The mac and cheese just tasted like the powdered cheese packet you get in boxed mac and cheese with a bit of Whiz mixed in. Honestly the best thing on the table was the Diet Coke. At least it saved me from choking on all that dry meat. Service was the one bright spot. Everyone was extremely friendly and checked on us for waters and offered to take our trays. 1 star for the phenomenal service.

It was packed with fresh ingredients, perfectly seasoned, and had just the right amount of kick. The homemade salsa paired perfectly with it and took the flavor to another level. I also tried the steak, eggs, biscuit, and potatoes, and everything was cooked to perfection. The steak was tender and flavorful, the eggs were spot on, the biscuit was fresh and buttery, and the potatoes were crispy and delicious. The service was friendly, fast, and welcoming, and the atmosphere made you feel right at home. It's clear they take pride in serving high-quality food and providing excellent customer service. If you're looking for an outstanding breakfast with generous portions and amazing flavor, Bee's Bakery Cafe is a must-visit. I'll definitely be coming back. Highly recommended!

Perfectly fried chicken; just the right amount of tenderness, moistness with a well seasoned crust. Great on it's own. Elevated by the waffle, butter and syrup! The delicate layer of crunch on the waffle is inviting. Once you bite into it then you discover the fluffy goodness with a hint of cinnamon & vanilla inside. Great all by itself. Elevated with butter, syrup and chicken! Plus I went home with a jar of melon honey, yum! This honey has a very mellow, subtle taste. Not overpowering, perfect in tea. Service is always friendly and speedy. Just love the interior decor, with all the sewing machines and eclectic items.

The Hitching Post, Ahwahnee: 2025 Jul 3 (4 of 5)…read more We usually bring our out-of-town guests here. The food may not always please everyone, but the service has always been top-notch. Fish & Chips: This was my order. The classic dish of the British Isles had a subtle sweet and buttery taste. The steamy battered fried cod was accompanied by a basketful of delicate potato chips. I truly enjoyed the delicate crunch that had the right amount of salt. The coleslaw that came with it was drenched but the taste is there. Personally, I'd rather have too much dressing than dry coleslaw. Overall: 5 of 5 French Dip Sandwich: I didn't taste this but was told it was good. Overall: 4.5 of 5 Jalapeno Burger: I didn't taste this dish. I was told that the meat was overdone, and the bun tasted stale. The fries had an odd 'old oil' taste. Since my fries were so good, I shared mine with my guests. Overall: 2 of 5 Service: You'll get a 5-star service here. The atmosphere is open but the service is warm. Overall: 5 of 5
