I ordered salmon with miso sauce, but it was not miso at all -- it was some kind of sour,…read morecompletely different sauce. The fish was overcooked to the point of being dry and inedible. I had specifically asked to substitute the rice, but it was still served -- and there was a hair in it, which is absolutely unacceptable from a hygiene standpoint. The kids' burger was overcooked to the point of being dry like a cracker, and the fries looked and tasted like they were cooked in old, repeatedly used oil. This is unsafe and unacceptable, especially for children's food. The steak was ordered medium well, but was served well done -- completely overcooked. The chimichurri sauce was also misleading: instead of the classic green sauce, a red mixture was served that had nothing to do with it. The coleslaw was simply awful. Additionally, the staff showed no proper response -- we were not offered a replacement, a discount, or even a proper apology. This reflects a complete disregard for service standards and customer care. In its current state, this does not meet even basic restaurant standards.

The salad was super colorful and the dressing complimented the smoked meats well. The beans were superb (and I don't even really like beans lol). And the star meat dishes were fantastic as expected. You can see the labor of love! We'll be back!

We didn't get to meet the owner as he had someone covering for him when we arrived. The menu is quite simple. Unfortunately, they were out of the cornbread and potato salad. We ordered the coleslaw and the beans. The elk sausage is quite tasty, but had quite a kick to it. The brisket was good, but we thought it was a little on the dry side, but the sauce was nice. The coleslaw is good and the beans are delicious but they have quite a kick to them also. I let my husband eat them. We enjoyed our meal with a big salad from Vons.

​My primary issue with this establishment occurs before you even receive your meal: the digital…read moreordering system demands a gratuity upfront. Expecting customers to tip before they have evaluated the service or even laid eyes on their food is a highly objectionable business practice. This policy is especially frustrating when the subsequent service and food quality fail to justify that forced investment. As out-of-town visitors, we found the pub completely unaccommodating. There were zero instructions on how to order, making it feel exclusively geared toward locals who already know the routine. We had to flag down a staff member wiping tables outside just to learn we needed to scan a QR code. The service we received after being forced to tip was incredibly disappointing. Our beet salad arrived first, but the runner dropped it off and vanished so quickly that we couldn't ask for a second silverware setting. Since we intended to share the salad, we had to wait. The salmon plate didn't arrive until roughly 15 minutes later. When we finally managed to ask our waiter for the extra silverware, he treated a basic hospitality request as a major inconvenience. Getting a simple fork felt like pulling teeth. The value for the price is simply not there. The grilled salmon plate was remarkably small--well under three ounces of fish. To make matters worse, the accompanying vegetables consisted of literally three skinny asparagus spears and two even thinner carrots. Between the aggressive upfront tipping, the small portion fish size, and the dismissive attitude of the staff, this establishment has massive room for improvement. I am leaving a two-star rating in hopes that management will reconsider their ordering system and address these glaring service deficiencies.

She also gave us two packs of Toomey's Seasoning . My son and I each got California's Greatest Burger with fries (I subbed Brussels sprouts), another son got the grilled rack pork chop, and my husband got fish n chips. Al the food was really good! I loved the Brussels sprouts especially. The burger was juicy and the pork chop disappeared quickly. We will try to come back again sometime during our trip to try more dishes.

This is our go to place when we come to Mammoth. We're here for a little over a week so we've come…read moretwice so far. The first time, we had Erin. She was very friendly and we were thankful she informed us that they were shorthanded so we lowered our expectations on the service. We've come so often that we know what is normal. There were three of us this time and my girlfriend and I want to split a meal. We simply asked if they would cut the ribs and the meatloaf in half. Erin went above and beyond and brought out two complete splits for us. It was very kind. My husband ordered the pork chops and said they were excellent. Everything was really good that night, but we sat outside, near the end where they used to have a yoga studio, but now it's a bar of some sort. The competing music was annoying. My husband and I returned again and everything was back to normal. We did sit closer to the front door, but the music seemed to be just fine. Eric was our server with assistance from Em and Brian. Everybody was so attentive and on top of things. The minute my water glass was half empty, Brian had it filled up. The owner, Matt, even came out to say hello. We told him that we have been following him since he was chef at the gas station My husband and I are older and don't eat as much as we used to. So this time we split a dinner Caesar and split the ribs. They are so kind to give us separate plates and no split charge. The food and our experience was excellent. When asked by visitors where to eat, we sent them to Toomey's.

We ordered the braised beef short rib dinner and the damn good burger and fries. Both meals were very good. The hamburger patty was so fresh with the arugula. Highly recommend.

The food is decent, it's never going to absolutely wow you but it will be sufficient and well priced. This time I tried their mac and cheese, it was cheesy and I liked the type of pasta noodle they used that allowed it to get extra crispy and crunchy with the spiral texture, however it was a little dry and on the blander side for mac! The ordering system is great and straightforward, you order and pay on your phone and then food appears straight to your table! Genius, convenient and perfect for groups as there's no splitting the bill awkwardly at the end. And the dog friendliness is so clutch, our pups always enjoy the sunshine and rest. Really great spot I would recommend in a sea of terrible touristy Mammoth dining establishments.

I have dined at Good Life many times over the years and have seen a decline in service and quality of the food ( my opinion ) Listen .... I understand that this restaurant is not 5 stars nor is it 3 stars ( my opinion) But the owners and its staff have one job and that job is to provide the absolute best service experience and food possible to the community. My hash brown potatoes were raw and my food was sub par . No effort , no passion . ( my opinion) The server couldn't be bothered with my comment of the raw food . The servers energy level was not good and I will definitely not be dining at the restaurant again when I travel up To Mammoth again this year. C- / D Rating

Food- burger that is hefty and flavorful; which compliments the Hair of the Bear. I want to like the waffle fries, but needed a little bit more crunch. Pricing - resort town prices. Walked away with a way lighter wallet, but good times are priceless. Serive - top of the line. Attentive, but not intrusive. Parking - plenty to be had during spring. Restroom - didnt use this time. Dont have an opinion. Ambiance - warm and comfortable like a cabin feel.

Stopped here after seeing the sign that there was going to be a band, but it's actually a DJ, not a…read morebig deal. The major issue I had was the ordering. Is phone that requires you to pay with tip when ordering. When did a tip stop being for service? How do you give someone a tip for service before they provide the service? Unfortunately, I've seen this at other places too, just over how ridiculous tipping has become and will avoid these places in the future. Sorry for the rant. Anyway, I was giving 3 stars initially and then the food came out. Both my buddy and I got the hot chicken sandwich, which I had here over a year ago and was good. This time it was over cooked and dry. So dry it was hard to swallow even with slaw in it. The waffle fries were stale, and both the sandwiches and fries were room temperature even though it came out within minutes of ordering. I appreciate fast food delivery, but this seemed like a it was just reheated. The server was friendly and came back and checked in us, so that was good, but we'll be going back to our regular brewery in the future.

We were really glad to find Stellar Brews. I ordered a chai latte and it honestly may be the best I've ever had in my life -- perfectly spiced, not too sweet, and just really comforting. The service from Carlos was great, too. He wasn't overbearing -- just genuinely kind, generous, and attentive in a low-key way that made the space feel welcoming. If you're deciding between the big coffee chains and this place, skip the chains and come here. We'll definitely be back.

I hate to give a bad review, especially for a small business but what we received today was…read morecompletely unacceptable. We were on our way out of town around 9:30am and stopped to get coffee and grabbed an everything bagel with eggs and bacon as well as a turkey egg burrito from the grab and go section. The coffee was fine. The bagel was so hard and burnt that I could barely bite into it. I tried a couple of different spots and it was inedible. Whatever the egg puck was inside the bagel was hard and tasteless. The "bacon" was literally stuck to the bagel, I tried to peel it off and eat some but it didn't taste like bacon and was like leather. I'm having a hard time understanding why they would serve this? The burrito was just brought out from the kitchen. We bit into it and it was cold. The tortilla tasted fake. Again, why put this out there to purchase. Had we not been in a time crunch we would have turned around to show them what they gave us and request a refund. I've never thrown out food before but these were inedible. I'm giving 2 stars instead of 1 as the cashier was very friendly.
