    From arriving until leaving everything was perfect. The atmosphere is wonderful and that alone standing fireplace took my breath away. The food is first class and so is the stuff. It definitely has a whole me feeling, and my husband was surprised that mammoth even has something like it. We were pleasantly surprised and will definitely come back, I would recommend this to anyone who likes good quality food and a great ambience… enjoy!

    Love the food, service and ambiance at this restaurant. We were served by Tiffany who took great care of us. The food was totally gourmet and cooked to perfection. This restaurant has not changed in over 30 years and that is what is great about it.

    This is absolutely the best restaurant on the mountain. The food is excellent, the ambience delightful, love the fireplace and the service was fabulous. The drive there is easy from Mammoth and kind of a fun experience. You feel like you are having dinner in the woods. Very charming!! And we went there on one of the stormy weekends. Definitely recommend.

    Absolutely Fabulous Dinner. We started with the Baked Brie which was served on a Huge platter with fruit and other cheeses. There were only two of us, so we ended up taking part of it back to the Condo. I got the Beef Wellington which was one of the best that I've ever had. My partner got the Venison which was absolutely the best I've ever tasted. Seriously one of the best restaurants I've eaten at anywhere and certainly is tops in my mind in the Mammoth Mountain Area.

    This restaurant is a GEM. The setting at The Restaurant at Convict Lake is truly unique, and unlike anything else we encountered in the Mammoth Lakes area. This is one of the few places you’ll never forget in your lifetime. The staff is professional, and the cuisine is top notch. It’s a great experience.
