Small coffee shop off the main road from Bobs Market. There is room for about 13 seating inside including two pub style tables. Everything is made fresh to order so don't expect a quick in and out especially if there are other patrons her. There was a one employee working and could have been a bit more friendly, but to each is own. There is a sign at the register that reads "please be patient, everything is made to order. We are a small business, not Starbucks." The coffee is good. The breakfast burritos are just ok . There wasn't any salsa or hot sauce for the burrito so it was a bit plain. The fact that they are open on a Tuesday morning while the competition is closed Tuesday and Wednesdays like a few other businesses to match China Peak days/hours is pretty good. Cheers!

The food quality, taste or lack there of, and plate presentation is lacking. We ordered: The Calamari Steak appetizer. It was mushy, cold, and flavorless. $22 Pine Nut Salad with Grilled Chicken (+$14) I thought it would be like Dog House Grills Salad. NO. It was disgusting, lack of substance, flavor, presentation etc. how do you mess up a salad?? Filet Mignon- ordered medium. Over cooked to med well/well done. They smooshed this $50+ entree on to the smallest plate. 1/2 rack of lamb chops. My poor husband was absolutely bamboozled LOL. There was a SMALL bite of meat on each "chop" they were also dry and overcooked. The Drinks: Margarita and Old Fashion were very good! 4/5 stars! If you decide to stop here; do yourself a favor and save time and money by just grabbing a drink at the bar. Don't eat the flavorless, disappointing food. The owners need to taste the food coming out of that kitchen and manage plate presentation.

We live in Shaver and the dining establishments are limited so nice to see Aroma stepping up their game. And the topper was the fire in the stove that kept my wife warm on what turned out to be a rainy and snow night. Great job and look forward to our next visit.

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. We enjoyed our food and dining experience, and we would love to return. Reiterating this review on Bar & Grill.

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.

We left the patio with our children and their pizza while my husband stayed behind to wait for the food we had ordered for the adults. As we were leaving, a truck was parked very close to the patio gate. We were careful to hold the gate open and guide our children through so that it would not come into contact with the truck. Despite our efforts, the bartender, Ashleigh, came outside with an attitude and told us not to hit her truck on the way out. She then went back inside and told people sitting at the bar to come look at her vehicle. We approached the people who came outside to check the truck and explained that we had been very careful and had not allowed the gate to touch it. One gentleman was polite and said he believed us. We went back inside to speak with a manager, but one was not available at the time. Later, we called Mike simply to inform him about the bartender's behavior and how unnecessarily rude the interaction had been. He said he would address the issue with the owners and review the security cameras. We welcomed that suggestion because the footage would clearly show that we did not hit anyone's truck and had no issue complying with the request to leave the patio with our children's pizza. The situation could have been handled professionally and respectfully, but instead we were treated as though we had done something wrong when we had not.

Even if you aren't staying here, it's worth it to stop by, have a cocktail, beer, or glass of wine, and enjoy the indoor or outdoor seating, including fire pits.

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.

But there was something we had not considered, we were going to be going to a place that required us to be fresh and ready to receive the wonder of place by a lack and we only had the energy for an angry stop at a gas station. So this place I visited when I was tired and that kind of gunked up the experience. If I would have gone with more energy to fully open my eyes than this experience would have been wondrous. When I booked the reservation I did it because it was a place by a lake. I enjoy water front dining and I usually use an ocean for scenery and today I was in a place where I could use a large creek. And since I was not going with any specific expectations that lake hit me like a bucket of wow. I remember like seeing the mouth of the lake going down like actual rocks. Like I was seeing the waters that people raft on with commitment to the outdoors. It felt like I had traveled into a place where trees were purest, bird melodies were the only noise in town (besides the water running in the creek), and cabins belonged to those who called the mountains home. I was in a novel and for some reason I felt like it was written by Twain. And that is really what I can say about this place. That is mostly what I remember the beauty of the creek. I wanted to spend more time there, I could have walked it, they had like a lounge but I did not. But I do remember the forested view that went on, and the roaring, jagged leg being a central character other than that I have small things to say. I remember the salad being ok. Denise and I shared a dish, I can't remember why but we did not eat the whole thing. It was inherently bad. But this could have been an off night, or just not the dish of the place, and really you go here for the lake, and the food was great in some ways just not in this specific way. I went to this place a few weeks ago, and, if I had not make it clear I remember the experience of being with the lake. So go here for that experience and let the rest just fall into place.

I'm not even sure where to begin. The restaurant itself is cute from the outside, but unfortunately…read morethe inside feels very run-down and poorly maintained. We ended up leaving shortly after being seated because the experience was so uncomfortable. The customer service from the two young ladies working was extremely rude and unwelcoming. In fact, the people seated behind us mentioned that interactions with the staff are usually hit or miss, which was disappointing to hear. Customer service plays a huge role in the relationship between a restaurant and its customers. A friendly attitude and welcoming environment can make all the difference. Sadly, that was not our experience here. Because of how uncomfortable we felt, I won't be returning with my family in the future. 5/31/26
