About the restaurant

Small. Casual. Personable.

Good people with a good vibe in a laid back, fun atmosphere- no white table cloths here!

With over 20 years of cooking experience, Chef Matt Garcia brings a new dining experience to Tuolumne County. Classically trained at Le Cordon Bleu Culinary School in San Francisco, Chef Matt has worked with some of the Bay Area's top chefs. As a young chef he was nominated as 7x7 Rising Star Chef, creating beautiful dishes that showcase the freshness of the ingredients and their bright, natural flavor and he continues to do so. The Branch is a place where we come together, to eat, enjoy and relax.

Located under the Twain Harte arch, our casual environment allows you to enjoy yourself with a glass of wine, beer or sparkling in hand. We welcome you to The Branch and we look forward to serving you.

Food was ok. I Tricolor salad was good, could have used more grapefruit. Dressing was great.. pasta with crab was bland. Crab was not the best quality.. my husband had the risotto which was much better. . Dessert panda cotta was good. Prices are very good. Would I go back? Yes. Good location, good prices. Decent food.

About the restaurant

The Ahwahnee Dining Room is now serving both a la carte and breakfast buffet from 7am-10am. Join us every Sunday for our Grand Brunch Buffet from 7am to 2pm, different rates apply. Lunch is served from 11:30am-2pm. Enjoy our Dinner Buffet from 5pm to 9pm featuring a carving station, dinner favorites and much more. If you experience difficulty making a reservation here, please call us directly at (209) 372-1490.

The Ahwahnee is near completion of a seismic retrofit renovation project in partnership with the National Park Service to preserve this iconic hotel. During the last phase of the project, the impacted areas will be isolated to the West Terrace and areas near the Dining Room. This work will result in some obstructed views, and we expect construction noise between 10AM–4PM, Monday–Friday. We have done our best to mitigate any negative guest experiences, though we recognize it may cause inconveniences and conditions. We thank you for your patience and understanding.
