I am a former resident of Mammoth Lakes and frequently visit many times a year . I was just…read morevisiting this 4th of July weekend and had breakfast with friends while I was in town . I have dined at Good Life many times over the years and have seen a decline in service and quality of the food ( my opinion ) Listen .... I understand that this restaurant is not 5 stars nor is it 3 stars ( my opinion) But the owners and its staff have one job and that job is to provide the absolute best service experience and food possible to the community. My hash brown potatoes were raw and my food was sub par . No effort , no passion . ( my opinion) The server couldn't be bothered with my comment of the raw food . The servers energy level was not good and I will definitely not be dining at the restaurant again when I travel up To Mammoth again this year. C- / D Rating

I ordered two dishes during my visit:…read more Gravy Train (with scrambled eggs) - This one felt very worth it since it comes with potatoes, bacon, and a biscuit. The fried chicken was big, well-fried, and not dry at all. I really liked it, though I felt the gravy could've been a bit hotter. Still, I'd give this dish a solid 4.5/5. Country Fried Steak - Served with gravy and potatoes, similar to the Gravy Train but with steak instead of chicken. The steak was nicely thick and very filling. There's limited parking available. I went on a Wednesday so it wasn't too crowded, but I still waited about 20 minutes.

We've been coming to The Stove for over 20 years, so this visit was especially disappointing. While…read moreKayla and was friendly and helpful, the male host was very rude. Our party of six had been waiting to be seated when another party of six arrived after us. Eventually, someone from their group asked about the wait, and the male host said, "We have a table," and waved them in. When we asked about when we would be seated since we arrived before the previous group, he claimed he had already called our name. All six of us had been seated, listening and heard parties being called--our group was never called. Kayla did apologize for the mix up, since she was aware we were waiting before the other group. Since we have been going to The Stove for years, we decided to give it another try, so later in the week, we pre-ordered three pies several days in advance and later added a fourth (Kayla added the fourth). When we arrived, only one pie (the one Kayla put in) was available, and we were told we could come back in two days--even though we were leaving the next day. The male staff member insisted we had changed our order, but the handwritten order sheet in the clipboard did show what we had originally requested. The other host was apologetic but told us the mix up was because Kayla (who wasn't there at the time) made a mistake and didn't complete the order. We explained that the male host took our order. We appreciated that she discounted the one pie we did receive. Instead of eating there, we went to The Warming Hut down the street, where the service was friendly, the food arrived quickly, and our food was good. We understand mistakes happen, but it was the dismissive and rude customer service of the male host --not the mistakes themselves--that made this experience so disappointing.

Excellent meal we enjoyed here! Service was great, our…read morewaitress was really friendly and shared with pride about the special blackberry BBQ sauce and how a lot of the menu items are created from scratch! She also gave us two packs of Toomey's Seasoning . My son and I each got California's Greatest Burger with fries (I subbed Brussels sprouts), another son got the grilled rack pork chop, and my husband got fish n chips. Al the food was really good! I loved the Brussels sprouts especially. The burger was juicy and the pork chop disappeared quickly. We will try to come back again sometime during our trip to try more dishes.

This is our go to place when we come to Mammoth. We're here for a little over a week so we've come…read moretwice so far. The first time, we had Erin. She was very friendly and we were thankful she informed us that they were shorthanded so we lowered our expectations on the service. We've come so often that we know what is normal. There were three of us this time and my girlfriend and I want to split a meal. We simply asked if they would cut the ribs and the meatloaf in half. Erin went above and beyond and brought out two complete splits for us. It was very kind. My husband ordered the pork chops and said they were excellent. Everything was really good that night, but we sat outside, near the end where they used to have a yoga studio, but now it's a bar of some sort. The competing music was annoying. My husband and I returned again and everything was back to normal. We did sit closer to the front door, but the music seemed to be just fine. Eric was our server with assistance from Em and Brian. Everybody was so attentive and on top of things. The minute my water glass was half empty, Brian had it filled up. The owner, Matt, even came out to say hello. We told him that we have been following him since he was chef at the gas station My husband and I are older and don't eat as much as we used to. So this time we split a dinner Caesar and split the ribs. They are so kind to give us separate plates and no split charge. The food and our experience was excellent. When asked by visitors where to eat, we sent them to Toomey's.

It's in the village facing the street side…read more Service is mechanical and down to business...I can see the value in not being social...helps keep the line moving along. It's busy with folks who know what they want...so there is some definite order anxiety if you aren't sure what you want...better be ready. I really enjoyed my everything bagel with egg and cheese. The bagel was soft with a ton of the everything seasoning. I also got a vanilla latte...it was solid. I choose to eat outside since the inside isn't conducive for relaxing.. It's a bit cramped and opposite where people pick up their orders so there is a constant stream of people in a narrow space. Outside tables were nice. They are right on the street but it wasn't all that busy and you could still enjoy all the pine trees.

The bad: The matzoh ball soup is a sad joke! The broth tastes like water ( not even salted water!! ) And the matzoh balls are just mushy matzoh! No salt, no flavor, mushy texture. Fries were underdone Verdict: Stick with the sandwiches! And ask for the fries well done or, better yet, get the cole slaw or potato salad!

Wow, just wow, I'm not fibbing when I say this is the best breakfast place I've ever eaten at…read more In the last couple years this place has gotten better and better. Everything that I have tried on the menu has been fantastic! Recently I had the eggs Benedict, except for I had it on a fresh made daily from scratch homemade croissant and instead of ham I added avocado and it was phenomenal to say the least. The hollandaise sauce is the best I've ever had, and I'm pretty picky when it comes to my hollandaise sauce. Another thing, the other day I tried the bear claw. I've been coming here for years & always get breakfast so I had never tried the pastries, that was a big mistake on my part because the pastries are made in-house from scratch, it was so good, I couldn't stop thinking about that bear claw. Next time I went in for breakfast I got two of them to go . They cover all the bases with the menu & even have breakfast burritos and sandwiches that you can order in advance and grab for the road, trail, fishing or chairlift. If you want a mimosa, quality espresso or fancy coffee drink, they got you covered. And if you love hot sauce, no worries, they've got em all. Honestly, I can't say a bad thing about this place, the staff is amazing, service is great & speedy and the place is clean. If you ask me, this is the only place to get breakfast in Mammoth. Bon appétit my friends Annabella

While the presentation of our breakfast plates was very nice--specifically the green garden omelet…read moreand the French toast--the overall experience was unfortunately marred by poor customer service. ​My omelet was supposed to include sourdough bread. When our waiter delivered our entrees, he noted that he would return with the bread shortly. However, it never arrived during the course of our meal. After we finished eating, a different staff member came by to asked if we're ready for the bill. When I mentioned the missing side, our original waiter finally brought out a single, untoasted slice of sourdough with butter alongside the check. ​When I informed him that I no longer needed it since we had already finished our meal, he mumbled something under his breath, abruptly told us to pay at the front, and walked away. We received absolutely no apology for the oversight or for his dismissive attitude. ​While the kitchen staff did a lovely job with the food, the front-of-house service needs significant improvement. I highly recommend management focus on training staff to be more attentive, understanding, and considerate when handling mistakes.

No other business does this on Reddit. First, service is very slow and pretty haughty. I had to wait 30 minutes for a simple pesto chicken crepe. It tasted disgusting. I got the apple dessert crepe. It was full of little cubes of raw apple that just fell out of the crepe. There was barely any cinnamon or sugar in it. I also got the pesto crepe. There was a splash of pesto and a couple little pieces of chicken. 90% of the crepe is the bread or galette or whatever. The rest (which isn't much) is just thrown in there. At $16 each, this was a complete ripoff, even worse than the usual Mammoth ripoff. The ambiance is pretty good though and they have a nice wine bar area. I could see this place being good for breakfast, but it's not worth spending any more of my money there.

Wasn't expecting anything crazy ... but I SHOULD HAVE BEEN! It sort of felt like I was walking into a dream. This is the cutest little restaurant with only a few tables.

Can't forget to shoutout the waiter who is the friendliest guy in the world and really seems to love his job! Can't wait to tell our friends about this spot and to come back. Adding to this, my boyfriend said it's so good that he's gearing up.

Come hungry and you'll be squared out. My husband ordered their Bison burger with french fries and loved it!! Their fries area really good!

Fresh, the vinaigrette was so good and the berries a perfect pop in a stifling day. The service was also very friendly and fast and overall the place has such a nice, good vibe to it so we will definitely be back the next time we're in town :)
