Big Trees Lodge Dining Room - Mariposa

We had difficulty making reservations as no one answered the phone x 3. Two places we read opened them at 5:30, but the door and the actual was at 5:30. Beautiful dining room with interesting lights. Also a beautiful view outside some large trees. It was busy. We were expected from Oakhurst's Irene. (Ilene) She was friendly and chatty but also efficient. We were the 2nd party and the food came right away. Wendy had soup and salad. She finished everything. I had the Tofu court. It was good. I thought a little part. Menu said it came with salted peanuts. I thought it was TOO salty. I finished things with the LOCALLY Made Key Lime Pie. A normally smaller restaurant size still GOOD!

I was through. This is a very old and historical location. Was a walk around reading about history. We didn't stay here or eat, although people seemed on the veranda, enjoying themselves a drink and looking at the views.

Not much change from menu, a bit expensive for what they serve, food was ok. Our waitress was a bit rude, if our dinner could have made a better service. The best part was my mixed strawberry margarita, definitely not coming back!

The food was excellent. Great service. Bot a very big menu, but everything we tried was excellent. Beautiful old dining room..

Badly in need of a facelift. Peeling paint on the otherwise beautiful windows made me sad. The roof is in sad shape on the main building and the pool was closed. If you go for the historical experience you should at least be apprised of the current condition. Delicious wedge salad.
