It's the kind of place where you instantly feel like a local. The food was outstanding -- fresh, flavorful, and generous portions. Everything tasted homemade and hit the spot after a day exploring the town. The drinks were just as good, and the bartenders clearly know what they're doing. Service was friendly, attentive, and genuinely kind without being over the top. You can tell the staff takes pride in what they do. Whether you're visiting for the weekend or just passing through, this spot delivers every time. Great atmosphere, great food, great people. We'll definitely be back!

We came here before going camping & for an early lunch and got here right when they opened, we had…read moreour dog that gets a bit antsy so they accommodated us on the patio and appreciated that. Our Dog did great! I saw they provided water bowls for them and they do have a doggie meal for them that's $7 and it's just chicken, veggies and rice or hamburger patty with no salt. My Dog eats anything cause he loves food but I was a bit thrown back on how it was served.. (it just looked like Mush & it was cold and more rice than anything) I only gave him the small pieces of chicken and the few carrots that were in there. The paper container was a bit hard for him to eat off but we made it work. I get it it's a doggy treat but it would have been a bit better if it was served on something more sturdy. Their service was Excellent. As we arrived they were quick and took our order for our drinks and flights of beer. We ordered and our food came out within 10 min and it was delicious, presentation was great, was warm and everything was well balanced and just delicious. I got their smash burger with fries and loved the fries and they had a satisfying crunch to them. We also tried their pretzel with Dipping sauce the Dijon mustard was a bit much but the cheese was fantastic. The atmosphere was great, they have indoor and outdoor seating and the inside is pretty rad as well. Their bathrooms were clean and tidy. Their merch was pretty sweet. They had quite a variety of things you can purchase along with their beer and other options they had in the fridge. Would we come back Absolutely! We loved our experience here, the staff were great and very attentive and the food was delicious to pair with great local beer.

Do you ever just want a Big Dick? Then you need to go to Idylwild and grab one at Dick's Dogs…read more When I want a Big Dick I always ask for a "Dirty Dick." I think it's the best one for its combination of flavors; chili, jalapeno and onions...mmmm, fantastic! But to be honest even an "Average Dick" tastes delicious. Dick's Dogs has a fun little stand with a casual vibe and nice little seating area and benches where you can fill up with a tasty Big Dick. If you ever have a craving for a Big Dick, cruise into idywild and stop at Dick's Dogs.

What a charming theater and eatery in Idyllwild. I'm happy in some ways we almost stumbled upon…read morethis place by accident. I was craving a quick bite and saw that this spot had a lot of signage for appetizers, small bites and movie theater snacks. While I normally wouldn't be as inclined to grab food from a theater when there are so many restaurants around, I saw that this spot wasn't yet busy and knew I needed to grab something on the go so I gave them a chance. The theatre inside is actually adorable and old timey. Small but first the old town vibe. They had a lot of decor, some arcade looking games and general move theater decor. A gentleman was working behind the counter and was super friendly and nice. Told him I was just wanting to grab a hotdog to go and he whipped it up right away. This gave me time to make a pit bathroom stop and they were clean and easy to access from inside. Didn't have to buy a movie ticket to use, just purchase food or such. It was all an easy and nice experience for wanting something on the go and no fuss. Friendly service, cheap bites and a cute atmosphere. Mind you the simple hotdog was actually delicious and a 5/5. Wow! I'd love to come back to watch a movie and grab some small bites. Nice place, friendly staff and a cute vibe.

Our waiter was fantastic--friendly, attentive, and truly made the experience special. I always hope to get him whenever we visit. One of my favorite things about this restaurant is the bread. It's incredibly delicious, and the butter served with it is just as amazing. The food is consistently excellent, and the atmosphere is perfect for relaxing and enjoying a great meal. I highly recommend this restaurant to anyone looking for a relaxing dining experience with outstanding food and exceptional service. We literally come here at least three times a month.

The salsiccia pizza, which has Italian sausage, a cream sauce, and scallions, was amazing. Just the right amount of spice and a big portion. The spaghetti meatballs could use a little more flavor. Service was just superb. They were attentive and exceptional. They even gave us the tiramisu on the house because we were celebrating her birthday. Do not sleep on the tiramisu. Definitely one of the tops in Idyllwild.

I read a bunch of the 1-star reviews. I read some of the…read more4-star reviews. I have to go with 5-star tho. OVERVIEW of 5 : Seated without reservation (*make one! We got lucky*) Server was amazing Food expediter was super nice Food was delicious Elegant, fine dining experience Music was my mountain playlist (and not too loud) View of mountains for me. View of architecture for my wife. PARKING: Parking can be difficult in the small lot, but there's parking along the street too. INSIDE: It was perfect weather. 68ºF at 6pm after a warm day. They have "indoor/patio" style seating which may be difficult for some to access by multiple steps. We were seated at the top, a table away from the music, along the window side. They have heat lamps - but temps were perfect (lots of people and hot food warmed everyone up). I wanted to walk around the restaurant. The tiered architecture is interesting. FOOD: High End Vegan! Yes - I'm guilty of wanting to give them 5 stars just looking at their vegan menu. (And omnivore selection) Yes - I appreciate the care that it takes to prepare a plate. BUT This food was just delicious by itself. Even in a cardboard box, this food would've been amazing. VEGAN "cheese" appetizer (great for 2-3 people) Nut cheese was warm and tangy. This is NOT just cashews and nooch in a blender. It is spiced with something that brings a little heat. *you will want to lick the bowl. PRO TIP: The welcome bread with ... oh shit.... WELCOME BREAD / Garlic Olive Oil This crusty bread served with microplaned garlic + olive oil is fantastic. Garlic Fiend? You're gonna love this. Not a fan of garlic? What's wrong with you?! I mean... just serve from the oil side. Save some bread for your vegan cheese.... VEGAN CHEESE (cont.) Order the gluten free bread (a little more like Uti's toasted dinner roll) with your vegan cheese app. Omnivores at your table will be surprised how well this vegan cheese and wine pair with each other. TROUT I think my wife got the trout. She loved it. Light and delicate. VEGAN KIMCHI TOFU I've had kimchi. I've had tofu. We all have. This was prepared on a bed of roasty veg that was a great match to the salty kimchi. I don't know if there was a marinade preparation (sesame paste?) with the tofu, or it was made locally, or both, but this firm tofu was excellent. Sweet. Nutty. Salty. Fresh tasting and filling. The vegan menu here isn't just an "alternate version" of an omnivore dish. It is its own thing. DESSERT MISTAKE = not getting it. We thought there would be dessert in town, but we got out late. Town had closed. MUSIC Tonight's music was a pair of musicians playing CS&N, Neil Young, Bob Seger... acoustic session: Guitar, Violin, Mandolin. Quiet & sentimental performance was a perfect accompaniment to a long hike day. THERE ARE 1-STAR REVIEWS of this place. They have their reasons. I've only been here once. But I experienced NONE of the things they've mentioned. Moreover, we experienced even better than what other 5-star reviews suggested. This is an elegant spot, framed by a perfect day in Idyllwild. If I come back to the town, I will want to try other restaurants, but I'll definitely come back here. Not *just* because of their vegan options, but definitely *for* their vegan options.

I got biscuits & gravy as an app. Then I got the barbecue beef sandwich on the Hawaiian bun and french fries with a little bit of chili on top. Ridiculously good!

I usually don't even eat the bun but the bun was so good and there was enough meat that I was needing to separate the top and the bottom of the bun. So WE ARE STUFFED.
