However, our pizza took 90 minutes and communication around it was not good. It was an oven issue. The table before us waited longer and left.

The weather was nice, so we decided to sit in the patio. Luckily there wasn't a long line when we arrived. We ordered lattes, pastries, omelet, and breakfast sandwich at the counter. There's a section for you grab the condiments by the counter. The lattes and hot food are brought to the table when they are ready. Everything was delicious, but pastries were exceptional. There's plenty of parking available and a perfect place to enjoy brunch before the long drive. I definitely recommend this place! Pro tips: check out their menu online to decide what you wanted before you get there so you can take time to decide on the pastries.

I don't usually post things like this, but I feel like I need to share my experience…read more I've been a regular customer at this coffee shop for months. I used to go almost every day, I've supported them consistently, bought drinks and beans there regularly, and it was part of my daily routine during a really difficult time in my life. My usual drink isn't available on their online ordering system, so I've always called ahead to place my order. That has never been an issue before. They knew my order so well that they referred to it as "the Amy Special," and there were times my drink was prepared ahead of time for me to pick up when I arrived. Today I called to place my usual order. I was told the person on the phone was the owner, and I was told they had been discussing my drink and that it was "very unusual," and that I would need to come in to order instead. I asked for clarification because I've always ordered the same way for months. I was told again that I would need to come in, and that my drink was too complicated to order over the phone. I explained that I've been ordering this drink the same way for a long time and that I've always been able to call it in before. After I said I was going through a hard time and wasn't really up for coming in, the call ended. When I called back, the phone was hung up on multiple times before I was able to briefly speak with someone again. When I did finally speak with someone I recognized, my reaction was emotional because I was confused and hurt by what was happening, and the interaction didn't feel like the experience I had come to expect from them. What I'm upset about is not that a business can change how they operate. What I'm upset about is that there was no clear communication that a policy had changed, and no explanation that made sense of why something that had been routine for months was suddenly not allowed. I'm sharing this because I genuinely thought I had a good relationship with this place as a customer, and today's experience didn't reflect that. This was a place I supported daily for a long time, and it became part of my routine during a period of my life when it genuinely mattered more than people probably realize. That's why today's experience felt so disappointing and hard to process.

Came here planning to try a flight and have a glass, and ended up staying for dinner and dessert…read more Besides the refreshing wine menu, the service was something that stood out. All of the staff went above and beyond to be super friendly and inviting. It felt like my husband and I were regulars the way the wait staff treated us. You could tell they treat every customer as if they're the only person in the winery, despite it being full. Every question we had was met with patience as they guided us on the best food and wine pairing. They also are super accommodating to pets, and were able to enjoy a nice meal with our pup. The food was all fresh and delicious. Everything tasted like it was made from the heart. My husband got the angel hair pasta with chicken, a favorite of his, and it did not disappoint! I got the brown butter sage gnocchi, made with fresh sage from their garden. We also enjoyed the meze board. My husband who does not like falafel was fighting with me for the last piece. For dessert I ate the rosemary shortbread with lemon curd. Just like with the sage the rosemary was also freshly picked from their garden. The shortbread was not too dry but also the perfect ratio of crispy on the outside and slightly moist on the inside - the exact way shortbread should be baked. I normally am picky with lemon desserts, but their lemon curd was also perfect - not too sweet and not too sour while still maintaining that fresh flavor. My biggest regret of our visit is not booking a room at their inn. We spent a couple of hours here and immediately felt right at home. I hope to come back one day for the full inn experience.

There was a band playing in their courtyard. The restaurant section had nice music playing. We will be coming back here again.

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.

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.

It feels complete and I LOVED their aguachile here!!! Spicy, zesty, chilled, and generous with the onions and cucumbers and avocado. It took longer to come out for sure, but when I tasted how fresh it was, it totally made sense. Each bite was humongous since I needed each component to make it perfect and I am so glad they gave enough toppings to complete each bite. AVOCADO IS NEEDED FOR SURE, the creaminess calmed down the spice and it was just delectable. It was so spicy that I had some stomach pain after, but the shrimp was also definitely basically completely raw as well. Take that as you will but every shrimp was perfectly deveined and this aguachile was a 1000/10. Thank you to the cooks and cashiers here! All super nice. We asked for more tostadas and they gave it to us free of charge. When the cashier told the cook, he was like "IS IT DELICIOUS" and we shouted across the restaurant that IT IS SUPER DELICIOUS. This will be my first pick when I go back! Most people got the burritos and stuff and those looked bomb too.

I ordered the Bleu salad add chicken and a piece of cheesecake. Delicious! Fire pit outside . I'm super happy that the owner supports the local breweries.. I'm also disappointed because I like a cold Modelo. I picked the location based on a restaurant and bar to avoid driving somewhere. Can the owner read this and add Coors light, Modelo and a white claw? Could be a fun local hangout. Everyone knows regulars keep the lights on. Sophia was awesome. Kept busy and the place was clean and tidy. It was nice to chat to her while I started to unwind from work before bed. I found it interesting because I had to work late a couple of nights that all the restaurants and places were closed. A few weeks ago I was traveling downtown Sonora and there was a restaurant there that actually opened at 7 PM. While traveling for work chitchatting to the folks, he learned that there was no place for people to eat. The place was packed because all of the people came from Yosemite and stayed in Sonora. In the past the had nowhere to eat. I heard it twice in the short time I was there! Also people who live in different countries don't always eat the same hours we do. This man found his little market and it was pretty successful looking. Enjoy The Hemlock

They were woefully shorthanded the Saturday morning we visited. They only had one gentleman working as a waiter for the entire restaurant that was filled with people. He seemed to do the best that he could. A couple of times, Claire from the front desk assisted when she could step away from the front desk. They have a pretty good menu. For some reason, I decided go Hawaiian and try their loco moco. The loco moco wasn't my thing. I didn't like it. If I visit this hotel again, I will definitely try a more traditional breakfast.

Since it was our first time in Bass Lake, we needed a map from the hotel front desk to find our way. Please view my map photo since it is nestled in the middle of lodging. Unfortunately, upon arrival, we were informed a 45-minute to 1-hour wait for a table. Perturbingly and hungrily, we waited. Our drink order included Modelo Michelada, Peach Lemonade, juice, and milk. Ordered the Ducey's Salad, a Philly Cheesesteak, a Carne Asada Protein Bowl, and 2 kids meals. Loved my protein bowl and peach lemonade.

First time visiting this spot and so glad I did especially as it's right at the lake. There are 2 separate floors at this restaurant: bottom floor is only open for dinner while the top floor is open for lunch and dinner. Chose to sit at outside patio area to enjoy the lake view and nice weather. Lots of dining tables with nice wall decors. Ordered a rustic reuben (braised corned beef) with sauerkraut and swiss cheese in rye bread. Also served with sweet potato fries. Rustic reuben was so good and savory!! Friendly staff and very courteous. Gotta check out this spot for dinner next time. Will be back when in the area again.

That is exactly what happened during my recent dinner at Elderberry House. I visited with a group of four, and between us, we had two gluten-free diners and one vegetarian. After a quick heads-up the day before, the restaurant handled our needs with total ease. We went for the five-course tasting menu, and it was incredible from start to finish. We kicked things off with one of the best oysters I have ever had, followed by a beautiful tuna presentation. The kitchen even looked out for our gluten-free friends with a special version of their herbal-butter focaccia that was actually delicious. By the time the main courses arrived, I honestly could not decide if I liked my beef or my friend's snap pea risotto better; every single bite was pure perfection. The cocktails were another high point. My first drink was great, but after chatting with our server, Jordan, I decided to try the Last Word. It featured that hard-to-find green chartreuse, and I am a little annoyed to report that I have a new favorite cocktail that requires such a rare ingredient. The service is what really made the night so special. Jordan was so charismatic and helpful, making sure we were perfectly taken care of all evening. He was so good that I almost worried a second visit would not be the same without him, though the rest of the staff quickly put that fear to rest. Abby was so friendly and responsible for a truly unique but perfect-for-the-vibe playlist, and Chris the mixologist even stopped by to geek out about gin and cocktails with us. From the genuine care for our food sensitivities to the clever touch of the iPad check-in hidden in an elegant binder, it was a night for the books. I cannot recommend this place enough and look forward to bringing my family next!
