He and his wife Jo moved to Mammoth three years ago. When asked why they opened a wine bar featuring Italian wines, he replied "We've been to Italy a bunch and we wanted to do wine. Italian wines". They have a small selection of food: Cheese plate, duck and liver pâté and canned mussels. I had the Delirium Tremens beer, my friend had a glass of the Barolo Serralunga red wine. Both were tasty! It was a great way to wait for our table at the Tavern. I'll be back!

They made the suggestion to stop by here instead, and it was the perfect place to have a night cap. The owner, Jo, was so nice and welcoming. She hand picks the selection of wines and sakes she serves, and she updates her selection every few months so you can come back and try new things she's found. Minimalist yet cozy, it's a nice place to warm up when it's cold outside.

The cafe may be small and cozy, but their coffee is definitely big on flavor. It's such a cute and beautiful spot, with a tempting selection of pastries and plenty of delicious coffee options to try. I didn't go too fancy this time because I was really craving a cortado (macchiato), but when I saw they had lavender, I couldn't resist adding it to my double shot. Such a good combination! The coffee was excellent--creamy, smooth, and full of flavor. I'll definitely be coming back to explore more of their coffee menu... and next time, I may have to stay a little later and check out their wine bar too. A lovely little unexpected find!

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.

We were looking for restaurants that were vegan friendly, and luckily found Ursa. Their drink menu is strictly soju cocktails but still very delicious. We had the lemon drop and citrus fizz. The staff were great, the chef came out to check in and food was delicious. We tried the Italian bread, charred cauliflower and the vegan orecchiette. Ursa is a must try when in Mammoth!

If you're craving pizza or pasta in Mammoth, Vulcania is my pick…read more QUICK TAKE Get: Ravioli Bolognese, pizza, pasta, Caesar Skip: Voltaggi-O's giant meatball Know: The pastas are handmade, the pizzas are Neapolitan-style, and substitutions can be limited. Ravioli Bolognese: The standout dish. Rich, meaty, satisfying, and exactly the kind of homemade pasta dish that makes this place worth visiting. Pepperoni Pizza: Excellent crust, good char, and crispy pepperoni cups. Simple and really well executed. This is genuinely good pizza, not just good pizza for a mountain town. Caesar: One of the more unusual Caesars I've had. It arrived with essentially whole heads of lettuce, celery, and a homemade crunchy component that reminded us of a savory funnel cake. The homemade dressing was excellent. Different, fun to share, and memorable. Pasta: This is where Vulcania really shines. Everything tastes homemade, and I'd be comfortable ordering just about any pasta on the menu. Chicken Parmesan: Pretty good overall, with a creamy, rich sauce over the top. It was a little too heavy for me, but everyone else at the table loved it. Meatball: I would skip this dish. The meatball was undercooked and felt like it was lacking a binding ingredient. One thing worth knowing is that the kitchen isn't particularly flexible about modifying dishes. That makes sense for a chef-driven restaurant, but it's worth considering if you have picky eaters or prefer lots of substitutions. Overall, Vulcania is still the best pizza and pasta we've had in Mammoth. The handmade pasta is the real draw, the pizza is excellent, and dishes like the Caesar give the menu enough personality to make it more interesting than standard Italian-American food.

Five stars for the food, three stars for the host/ making reservations with a live person…read more Similar to the negative reviews, the host needs training. I called and inquired about a few things and when we arrived, we were told a different story. Long story short, use OpenTable to make your reservations and avoid the headache. Outside Pods- If you're interested in sitting in the pods outside, it's an additional $50-100 (depending on the day) and can fit 6-8 people. We had several kids in our party and they enjoyed the novelty of it. Our waiter Cam was great and made up for the poor service with the host. He had great recommendations as all were spot on. Cam recommended "family style" as many of the entrees are large and it gives you a chance to sample everything. We started with the asparagus summer rolls and tricolore salad. Both were delicious and refreshing. For the entrees we shared the cacio e pepe, margherita pizza, orechiette nero and chicken parmesan. Again, everything was excellent. For dessert, the gelato comes with three huge scoops along with three zeppoles (Italian donuts). The food was excellent and probably one of my new favorites in Mammoth.
