Erin at the bar was amazing. The Octoberfest platter is great. The rib eye steak was amazing and the lobster ravioli was different I wasn't expecting the sweet sauce. I would prefer a butter sauce. But overall, the atmosphere was super cool and it was a fabulous experience!! We will definitely be back! read more

We made reservations for Wednesday night. It was our first time dining at Austria Hof. It is a charming little restaurant/hotel near Canyon Lodge at Mammoth Mountain. We walked in and were immediately greeted and escorted to our table. The hostess was very friendly. Our sever Monica was very attentive and professional. She immediately brought us water, bread and butter. The bread was served with warm and it was very tasty. We ordered two dirty martinis. They were served properly and were delicious. For dinner we decided to order the Bauernschmaus German Sampler for two - Pork and veal schnitzel, kassler ripchen, smoked bratwurst and Polish sausage, potato pancakes, spaetzle, red cabbage and sauerkraut. $82. It was very good. There was plenty of food and we even took home leftovers. We will visit again next time we are in mammoth. read more

Came in and ordered a Duck Confit pizza to take back to my room. The pizza was very thin with a great crunch. The duck was tender and juicy, and the cheese was savory and well balanced. I do wish it had a bit more tomato sauce and was slightly juicier overall. When we came in, the lady working there helped us quickly and was very friendly. The ambiance felt very authentic and had a nice old-school ski lodge vibe. read more

4 stars for the food, 5 stars for the service, so I'm rounding up. We had a large party with kids, and they were extremely accommodating, even seating us early because the kids were cranky. We ordered a lot of different food and ate family style, which I recommend. The restaurant has an old school ski town vibe which was exactly what we were going for. read more

Came here in Mammoth craving something hearty, and this definitely hit the spot. The German food felt authentic and satisfying, especially after a long day outside. I ordered the Kassler Rippchen, and even though it was described more like a pork chop, it actually reminded me more of ham: smoky, tender, and really flavorful. The mashed potatoes were excellent too: creamy, well seasoned, and not just an afterthought on the plate. I had a Hofbräu Original with dinner, which paired perfectly. Service was good, and the atmosphere was cozy, especially since it's tucked underneath the hotel. Definitely a good Mammoth pick when you want a warm, comforting meal read more

OMG Awesome! Charming chalet-style ambiance out of downtown. We had the sampler platter for two- 3 kinds of sausages, 2 schnitzels, brined pork chop, potato pancakes, sauerkraut, red cabbage, spaetzle, etc.... Each of the items were top-notch. Excellent food in a cozy atmosphere. We recommend this restaurant highly! read more

If you're looking for a great spot near Canyon Lodge for some apres-ski vibes, Austria Hof is a fantastic choice. We stopped in during happy hour and had a wonderful time. The highlight was definitely the cheese plate- it was absolutely delicious and hit the spot after a day on the mountain. We paired it with a few German beers, which were refreshing and authentic. The location is unbeatable for anyone coming off the slopes at Canyon, making it a super convenient and cozy place to unwind. We loved the atmosphere and the food; we will certainly be coming back! read more

By Mammoth Lakes standards this restaurant is ok. It lacks the ambiance and sophisticated service but the homely cousine and appropriate pricing, makes it a worthwhile dining experience. read more

Four paws up for Austria Hof We grabbed seats at the bar for dinner and were welcomed right away. Cozy vibe, easygoing energy, exactly what we were after. The food was a hit: Hungarian beef goulash, Jägerschnitzel, and an apple strudel to finish. Comfort food done right. A fun, relaxed spot with great food. We'd happily come back. read more

The entrance was a bit confusing. You enter from the street into the restaurant and then make a left and a right and you're just kind of in the middle of the restaurant. We were greeted by a friendly host who took our name and confirmed our reservation. A moment later a man in a polo shirt arrived and asked us if we had a reservation which was weird and he wasn't particularly friendly, and then the host returned, asked for menus and took us to our table. Our table was a very large booth with high seat backs, and dim moody lighting. Very intimate, fairly romantic ambiance. We were greeted by our waiter, placed our drink order and discussed the menu briefly before putting in our food order. We had the sample for "two" although to be fair, the sampler could easily feed 3-4 people. They were out of pork chops, so we had veal & pork schnitzel, smoked sausage, polish sausage, potato pancakes, veggies, sauerkraut, and a beer each. Overall the food was delightful, and we took a fair amount of it to go and had it for dinner the following night. I will say I'm not a huge fan of polish sausage, and its lack of snap, but we put it in the air fryer and it was great lol Overall a great experience, not overly pricey, friendly staff, and I would recommend it if you're in Mammoth looking for a hearty meal or intimate dinner. read more

We visited Austria Hof on Monday, 2/23, as we do during our multiple snowboarding trips to Mammoth each year. We typically sit at the bar and have always had a great experience--until this visit. My husband ordered a pizza and I ordered the chicken Caesar salad. His pizza was brought out approximately 15 minutes before my salad. When he politely asked Scotty, the bartender, if the pizza could be kept warm and brought out when my salad was ready, Scotty responded by asking what I had ordered. Upon hearing it included chicken, he said, "Oh, it's because she ordered chicken on her salad. Chicken takes a long time. If you want a restaurant experience, then you need to sit in the restaurant, not at the bar." We were honestly shocked by the tone and comment, especially since we have always sat at the bar and never experienced poor service before. Thankfully, Katie noticed what was happening, came over promptly, took my husband's plate, apologized, and ensured both dishes were brought out together shortly afterward. Unfortunately, after this interaction, Scotty and the other bartenders appeared to ignore us. We were not asked how our food was, and we sat with empty beer, wine, and water glasses for an extended period. There were multiple opportunities to check in or offer another round, but none were taken. Instead, we observed Scotty dancing behind the bar and taking a shot of liquor while we were being overlooked. Katie, the hostess, and Casey were all kind, apologetic, and professional--they are true assets to this restaurant. However, Scotty's behavior was disappointing and unprofessional. Based on this experience, we would choose to leave if he were bartending during a future visit. read more

The location was great. Mammoth is so beautiful and luckily this place was open for a late evening dinner. Everything we ordered was good.

We had a delicious, substantial dinner at Austria Hof. I especially enjoyed the freshly cooked home-style vegetables served with the entrees. The portions were generous and the food was tasty and authentic...the sauerkraut was wonderful. read more

We've never been to this restaurant before and was looking for a very good dinner and was willing to pay for it. I had the "Premium" ribeye steak dinner (52) and Sassy had the rack of lamb (58). I asked what grade the premium ribeye was but couldn't get a good answer. Apparently it had the Premium size with the price but thats about it. It was cooked medium rare, exactly how I wanted it. But the chewy connective tissues and abundance of grissel kept me from giving 5 stars. Sassy's lamb was cooked very nice but the seasonings were off just enough to take off another star. Drinks were tasty though! read more

I think Austria Hof is the perfect Mammoth restaurant. The food, the service, the ambiance, even the parking are all exceptional. Austria Hof has enjoyed a long history of success in Mammoth and deservedly so. read more

Of course the ambience is just so calming and relaxing . The food was incredible as we shared the German platter and cocoa square . Jeff our waiter was very professional and on point with his job . We are looking forward to a return visit . read more

Would definitely revisit this bar in the future! Delicious food and tasty cocktails. It's a dimly lit bar downstairs of the hotel. Very cozy and a little warm. The food was the star for sure; the escargo was easy to gorge on; buttery and garlicky with crispy cheese toasts. The baked Brie was nice but a small portion. I don't remember the name of the schnitzel but it was great, though thin. Lastly the goat Brie, delicious and simple. 5/5 recommend for Mammoth! read more

We ate dinner in the bar at 4:30 The food was terrific and the staff really worked well as a team. It was such a great experience that we returned for a second dinner the next night. Absolutely the best eating experience we've had in Mammoth! read more

How can you not love the Hoff!?! Great food and vibe whether with the whole fam, couples hang or a dinner for 2.

Food was delicious traditional Alpine fare. Ambiance was chalet style and very fitting. Service was above and beyond 5 We were there during a classic Mammoth blizzard and we could not get a cab and the hotel had closed down their shuttle. The manager of the restaurant gave us a ride home. Thanks again read more

Very cute and quaint. Came to meet up for a drink. The drinks were made well and not poured lightly. Appetizers were hot and served fast.

Great restaurant, very tasty food, elk cooked perfectly, sausages taste almost like in Germany, but the best thing I've tried in America, I'll definitely come back to this restaurant again read more

The restaurant is run but dumb inconsiderate people. We stayed at the hotel. We had reservations. We sat in the room waiting for over 2 hours for our reservation time after skiing. They had plumbing issues all day and knew in advance they did not plan on opening the restaurant but did not call anyone to tell them they were closed. Waited until we got there five minutes prior to our reservation time to tell us. They said we can go to the village. It's night of lights, fireworks show, busiest night of the year, all restaurants are packed. I have a family of four to feed. We could have gone down to the village 2 hours earlier had they called us to tell us they were closed. They had our phone number for the reservation. read more

I have been coming to this restaurant for years. I plan my Mammoth trips around it. That is how much I like this restaurant. But tonight I was saddened by my experience here. Upon arrival, I asked about the corkage and was advised it was $40 . I don't know what to say about this. I was stunned. You see, better, more upper class restaurants in Calabasas and Westlake Village don't charge a $40 corkage. I couldn't help but think... "the nerve". So, I ordered a very nice Pinot Noir and was content. The soup arrived and was very good. But then my main course arrived. The Goulash. At least half the meat had so much fat I had to spit out of my mouth each piece as inedible. Ick. And my fav, the spaetzle was dry and cool to the taste. Ah, such disappointment. The pièces de résistance of the night was the bill, which I uploaded. It shows two amounts due. When I asked my server why, she explained, if I paid with a credit card, I would be charged an extra fee. I suppose if I had been fore-warned I might have considered going to an ATM, because, seriously, who carries around that much cash these days? So, no advanced warning by them. How often do you see this on a bill? For me, this was a first. I don't understand what has happened to this restaurant: below average food quality, excessive corkage fees, and extra charges for using a credit card... so, I thought it important to share this information with readers who may want to find an ATM before dinner! And stay away from the Goulash. read more

We stayed at the Austria Hof for a ski trip and decided to hit up happy hour here after the slopes. Fun and upbeat place located downstairs at the Austria Hof Hotel. The pizza was good The chicken wings are better than any place I've been. Craved then so much, we came for dinner about a month later when we came back to ski. We ordered the German dinner for two. We weren't really impressed Tables fill up quickly in the bar. Reservations are a must if you want to sit in the dining room. Service is pretty good. The place folks up fast and bar is first come. Drinks were average. Bathrooms were clean. Parking could be tough depending on the time and amount of snow. read more

Always delicious! Love the baked Brie and almost always have the Jagerschiztel (sp). Eating in the bar or restaurant are both enjoyable. read more

Wel'p..... I have been back 4 times since my 1st visit - specifically for dinner and drinks. The service is ON POINT and always fun with the locals! The delightful smell of excellence hits ya right as ya come in the door ....... I am UBER picky about my German food and this place has yet to disappoint! My lovely wife (even pickier than me) looks forward to coming here with me and she too leaves well satisfied! Trust me - we are food snobs - and don't revisit places that suck. This place is delish..... that's why we keep coming back. Don't pay attention to any haters that post a bad review about this place - they likely don't live in reality anyway. I have also stayed in the hotel - nice - simple - clean and close to my favorite runs!! read more

Austria Hof Restaurant - Jagersnitzel and filet. LETS GOOOO - German Near Me - Mammoth Lakes, California

Austria Hof should eve $$$. We tried to get into the bar but no dice, especially during March Madness. So pulled out the checkbook for dinner. It was pricey but worth it! Everything we tried was delish, from the best pretzel ever to the goulash that we asked for more bread so we can soak up the broth. The highlight was the elk rack - from Kiwi Land. It was so tender and moist. Super delish. Steps from Warming Hut (or whatever it's called now), it's a great spot for apres ski. read more

Great atmosphere, great service, and great food. This place really stands out as a gem. Everything about the experience felt consistently positive, from the moment we walked in to the moment we left.

A reliable favorite. Make a reservation! read more

I'm so happy my husband booked this place for my birthday this year! The service here is the best I would say. She's so welcoming, friendly and helpful. The foods are nice, we enjoyed everything!
