The French dip sandwich wasn't too bad. The meat was really well done and dry. The au jus was very flavorful so helped balance that. The chicken fingers were crispy but they served them with a sesame type sauce. Almost the same as the dressing for the chinese chicken salad. Not sure if it was a mistake. The salad was really good. I had a little bit of the rice pilaf and sweet potato fries. Both good. The fries had nice seasoning on them.

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.

There's plenty of seating, indoors and outdoor. The weather was perfect, so we decided to sit outdoors where there was also a live jazz band. You order at the counter and then your food is brought out to you when ready. The line was pretty long when we went, and all of the menus were occupied. Luckily, their menu online is updated so we were still able to decide what we wanted before it was our turn to order. We ordered the turkey sandwich, banana pecan waffle, and freshly squeezed orange juice. Everything was delicious, but the waffle really stood out for me. There's also a section when you grab your own condiments indoors. There's plenty of parking available and the perfect place to enjoy a nice day outside. I definitely recommend this place!

After a 3 hour drive from Sacramento we worked up an appetite and some buddies took us to North…read moreFork BBQ.. we did arrive late so they were almost out of just about everything which effected what we could order however my wife got the "outlaw potato" and I got the Carolina pig sandwich.. (those were our only two options at the time we arrived) but neither disappointed: The outlaw potato: If comfort food and gourmet creativity had a baby, it would be this open-faced smoked potato masterpiece. From the first glance, it's clear this isn't your average spud -- the sea salt-crusted skin adds a satisfying crunch that gives way to a pillowy, smoky interior. Melted butter and tangy sour cream mingle at the base, setting the stage for the savory dance of crisp bacon bits and fresh green onion. The Carolina pig: this sandwich is what barbecue dreams are made of. Served on a perfectly soft, oil-top bun, the pork is tender, smoky, and slow-cooked to perfection -- each bite packed with that signature tangy Carolina flavor that fans of true BBQ will instantly recognize and love. Service: was top notch the girls were ready to go home, yet they entertained us and kept us laughing with offering items they no longer had on the menu. They did not make us feel rushed nor did they throw any shade at us that we were probably holding them up from closing shop.

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.

I always opt to sit outside where I can basque in the mountain sunshine while taking in the scenery. There's always a cat or two traipsing about the establishment that offers entertainment to my pooch. (Yes, they're dog-friendly!) The food is absolutely divine with I believe most of the items being made in house & all ingredients are locally sourced with the freshest ingredients. Idle Hour is a stop you definitely want to make whether passing through on your way to Yosemite or if you're a local, make no mistake and try this place out!

We had a large group with multiple dogs, so we sat out on the deck nearby, and the staff still went above and beyond bringing out our takeout food and helping us with drinks. The food was so good. We ordered the fish and chips, Bomb Burger (both delicious), the salmon protein bowl, chicken tenders, and a Philly cheesesteak. Everything hit. Our teenage girls were able to sit at their own table inside the restaurant, and they were treated so kindly, which I really appreciated. We were in Yosemite celebrating my niece's 18th birthday, and this was our first meal of the trip. It ended up being such a perfect, memorable start. The location is beautiful, right on the resort in a quieter part of the lake, and the weather made it even better. Highly recommend if you're in the area.

Such a disappointing experience my family had last week. This is the last place we ate at before…read morecoming down the mountain. My dad had eaten here 2 years ago when he camped in the Wishon area with my sister and her family. In fact, he mentioned that to our server (I believe her name was Maya or Mara) and she shrugged it off nonchalantly. She couldn't have cared less that he'd had such a good experience that he wanted to return with us. It was almost as though she preferred us not being there as it was kind of how the rest of our interactions went during our meal, which was unfortunate because I really wanted to like this place. My parents split a Reuben sandwich with their delicious apple & walnut salad. I got to taste the salad, and wish I had ordered it with chicken or salmon, but I was craving something more filling to last me most of the drive back to Los Angeles. I opted for their cheeseburger and potato spirals. I requested Swiss on my burger, but wished afterwards that I had requested it with their smoked blue cheese as my burger lacked a bit of flavor and juiciness; despite asking for it to be cooked medium, it was quite dry. My daughter had their fish n chips from the kids menu but opted for broccoli instead of potatoes (she loves broccoli and I wanted help with my potatoes anyway). The breading on the fish was very crunchy, and my daughter complained that it hurt her teeth a bit. Our server never once came to check on us to see how our meal was nor to ask if we needed refills on our drinks or anything else. In fact, when she did return it was only to set the bill on the table without saying a word and run off to check on the couple at the next table. Literally a drive-by dropoff of the check, haha. And less than 20 seconds later she turns around and motions to pick up the little folder with the check in it and asks us "Is there anything in here yet?" I must've had some look on my face because she set it back down and immediately says, "No rush." Like, come on! You LITERALLY just set it on our table. I was quite annoyed - like did you think we were going to dine and dash? My mom was too intimidated to ask for a refill on her Arnold palmer to go. I still had lemonade in my cup so I did ask for a plastic cup to take the rest of it to-go as I didn't wish to hang out there much longer. Anyway, I hate to give bad reviews, but after such an amazing time in Yosemite, this one just stunk up the end of the trip. Some tips: circle around the buildings in the front where the market and self-serve gas are. Plenty of parking. Views of the lake are nice. Restaurant has indoor and outdoor seating, two floors with restrooms on both floors- the lower level seems to be reserved for dinner hours and maybe even small parties/events. Hopefully you have better luck than us in terms of service.
