Restaurants near Twain Harte Golf Course

Still a few kinks to work out. New chef is doing a good job. The octopus appetizer was one of the best I’ve ever had. Real skill to get the smokiness and keep the flavor and moisture. Venison wax perfectly cooked, good presentation, balance of flavors. Boar chops were not the best quality, pretty tough and fat not rendered properly but there was flavor. I suggested they use a local source, Rawhide meats, to get better quality chops. We were comped our desserts because of the tough chops which was a positive response. Deserts were fabulous, pot du crème and poached pear in white wine. Great selection of wines. Our server, Mary was wonderful, moving us from a table for four to a table for two when our friends were unable to come. Mary had not been told about the comped desserts but took care of it and gave us our local discount without a problem. Next time I’ll try the Whole Branzino!

Our party of 7 adults had never before dined at this delightful restaurant. In years past, we had always gone to the Ahwahnee for fine dining. At Yosemite Lodging's Mountain Room, all were very pleasantly surprised by how attractive the dining room is. All of the plates were very, very delicious. We had perfectly cooked trout, chicken, and French onion soup. The flavorful endive side salad and the Basque cheesecake were unique and so delicious. This restaurant also had top-notch service. This is our new go to YNP restaurant for fine dining!

We made reservations at the hotel restaurant expecting a wonderful dining experience. From friends we had heard about the outstanding food and wonderful ambiance. It wasn't until we checked in that we found out that the only option for our dinner reservation that evening was buffet... and we found that out only by reading the fine print on the information paper provided at check-in. Due to construction, a buffet was the only option offered in the hotel restaurant at a pricy $63 per person. My husband and I ate the buffet and it was NOT a good value; the food was a very mediocre buffet (including desserts that looked like they could have been purchased from Costco). Our reservation was for 8:15 so by then salads were soggy, broccolini was overdone, fish had little taste. We should have been informed PRIOR to check in, when we made the dinner reservation, that a buffet was the only option for $63 per person. We were so looking forward to sharing a special dinner with my nearly 90 year old mom but when she saw the price and that a buffet was her only option (she eats small amounts) she chose to have a sandwich in the room from the sweet shop. The dining experience turned a special occasion into a real disappointment! For a four star hotel this was very disappointing. This was at best a $20-25 buffet, and not a good one. The rest of the hotel was great. Unfortunately because we had so looked forward to this dining experience, and had built it up to be a very special occasion for my mom, it put a big wet blanket on our one night stay at the Ahwahnee Hotel!

Matt and team provided a unique Twain Harte experience for my besties (all”foodies”)!There are future events in the works! Epic!

No food, just wine tasting. Quiet relaxing locale.
