The service was only fair, but the food was good. It was a reasonably priced lunch. Dinner would be much more. The setting is magnificent ! more

We were on our way out of Yosemite (after three days there), coming from the Valley and on our way to Fresno, which is where we had originally expected to be for dinner. However, we were running a bit late, and stopped to see this historic, elegant hotel before we exited the park -- and decided to broaden our experience... more

We ate our Thanksgiving dinner here while our stay at the hotel and also had breakfast the next morning. Dinner was a four course meal with 2 or 3 options for the second course, 4 or 5 options for the main course and 3 or 4 options for dessert. We opted for the turkey meal, of course, and it was... more

We had just finished the easy hike along the golf course near the historic Wawona Hotel and decided to give this place a try for lunch. There was no wait at around 11:15 AM on Saturday in September. The round tables were plenty big for our party of five adults. There is minimal ambiance with a single large room capped... more

This restaurant was easily the worst experience of our 2 week trip to California.The hotel itself is quaint and characterful,and has the feel of a frontier staging post. This hotel obviously suffers from the same problems as the other dining establishments in the area,limited choice means no competition,which allows the standard to be poor without business being unduly affected. The... more

I don't know how much the breakfast costs, but the lunch and dinner menus were quite expensive. The breakfast buffet is full of great dishes...scrambled eggs, ham, eggs florentine, French toast, hash browns, yogurt, fruit crumble, peaches and cream, bagels, and a large variety of breads. more

We had dinner one night and breakfast the next morning. The dining room was packed to the gills each meal - Lord knows what it would be like in peak season. The servers were very friendly. The food was average; nothing was terribly, but nothing I couldn't have made better. Very bland. But appropriate to the setting (i.e. old-fashioned: pot... more

Ok, go here for the looks. Although it is a smelly old hotel, this place is worth a look due to history. The food was just ok, the service was exceptionally slow. It is an experience just to sit in this place and reminds me of some European lodges I've visited. Again, food was ok, nothing memorable, and it took... more

Ate at The Wawona Hotel dining room on a Saturday evening. No wait was seated right away on the beautiful patio. The atmosphere was wonderful. Felt like we had traveled back in time to a Southern Plantation. I had one of their signature dishes the Linguini and Turkey Cutlet dish. Yummy. The prices were a bit high but quantity was... more
