    Corned beef
    Brenda H.

    Fantastic spot! The staff was so friendly and the food was delicious. We had: loco moco, corned beef hash Benedict and macadamia nut pancakes.

    We originally stopped by Alpaca Coffee but found out they don't serve breakfast. Luckily, Mile High Cafe shares the same space so we decided to give it a try and ended up dining here twice during our trip. It's super convenient just a quick 4 minute walk from our Airbnb. They offer both indoor and outdoor seating and the space is clean, relaxed, and welcoming. The menu has a little something for everyone but what stood out to me was the subtle Asian influence. The owner is Korean, and you can definitely see that touch in some of the offerings. We even bought her homemade kimchi which was a nice surprise. It looks like they also offer kimchi making classes which is unique and not something you see at your typical breakfast spot. Service was friendly, the vibe was easygoing, and overall it felt like a refreshing change from the usual mountain town breakfast places. We'll definitely be back next time we're in Idyllwild.

    Wood fire

    I had the country fried steak and had to put my fork down and take a picture after the first bite! I consider myself a Country fried steak connoisseur and oh man Delicious flavor, crunchy, juicy and delicious homemade gravy. You can tell this restaurant works because the owner is present and her hands everywhere. From making sure the wood fire stove was maintained to having the chef remake my husband's sausage before it left the kitchen because she said it was too dry. Amazing Victoria is an amazing server, took excellent care of us, giving great recommendations and keeping our coffee full Will definitely be back

    Side of Kimchi
    Hanna O.

    I am truly delighted every time I visit Mile High Cafe, which is hands-down one of my favorite spots in Idyllwild! It is (conveniently) located right next to Alpaca Coffee and my usual flow is to grab a bite to eat at Mile High then walk on over to Alpaca to grab a chaggaccino to go. I've tried many of the menu options, which include both brunch/lunch classics, as well as a few Korean fusion dishes. I HIGHLY recommend the chicken on fire, the tuna melt, the kimchi Bloody Mary, and the teriyaki tofu. This time around, I gave the beef bulgogi with fried rice a try and it was SO delicious. I loved the flavor of the marinated beef, which flowed harmoniously with the pan fried glass noodles. I also ordered a side of the house made kimchi, which complimented the flavors of the beef bulgogi as well. This is a 5-star kinda spot! The only downside I experienced this time around was the timing of our meals coming it. We waited around 50 minutes, which is pretty unusual, as all other times I've visited, orders have come out pretty quick. I assume there must've been some understaffing in the kitchen. No biggie, I'm not mad about it. Anyways, I HIGHLY recommend Mile High Cafe to any folks looking for a solid spot in Idy for some great food, impeccable vibes, and an overall wonderful experience!

    Kimchi butter fried rice & Korean bbq Galbi
    Salma Z.

    I came in for the Korean BBQ Galbi & it did not disappoint. The Asian fusion breakfast is a VIBE. My fiancè tried their bulgogi breakfast burrito & I had a bite of it. It was absolutely delicious. The potatoes that come with it were nice, crispy & flavorful. Best potatoes I've had on the mountain. Back to my Galbi dish. Since I came in after 11am, I had the option to do lunch & I went with the fried rice side. The additional option of having your fried rice cooked in butter and homemade kimchi is absolutely worth it. The Galbi is served in a cast iron sizzling plate. The meat itself was so tender & delicious. What an experience! And now to the Service. Everyone who works here is so happy & extremely kind. We were greeted with smiles & they were always checking on us. Wonderful food, wonderful service.

    Excellent brunch! We would happily come back here again and again. The staff is super friendly and the service was very good. The menu is much more creative than one would expect from a mountain town diner/cafe and it was delicious! Not a lot of restaurants in Idyllwild but as long as Mile High is operating, I'd be happy to come and spend some time here. Alpaca coffee is co-located in the same space and you can get drinks from their counter to enjoy with your meal.

    scallion pancakes. my son had the breakfast platter with french toast
    Hannah K.

    we were greeted immediately and seated fairly quickly. every one of the servers was so nice and attentive. i got the scallion pancakes - so good! the rest of my party got the california omelette (really, really tasty!), the corned beef hash (also 10/10), and the breakfast platter with french toast (so good!). the place is really cute inside and attached to a great little coffee shop as well.

    Yaki udon with tofu
    Grace N.

    Another one of our regular spots when we are in Idyllwild. This place offers and satisfy my Asian palate and any item on the menu is always so mouth watering delicious! Service is wonderful and friendly and the vibe is so chill! They have boba shop attached to them and I would just love to chill and eat and drink boba here!

    Loco moco, huevos rancheros
    Julie N.

    Highly recommend coming here! Generous portions, amazing food, and great soju!! The owner and staff are super friendly. Definitely a must visit!!

    Spinach omelette
    Victoria R.

    Definitely great food. Ambiance is cozy! I'd say the only part that's lacking is in service, and by that I don't mean the servers, they're great. It's from management. They don't have more staff then they overwork their servers and you can tell the lead Asian lady gets upset and its not the servers fault for running around like crazy. Anyway, that said, the coffee shop next to it is worth the visit.

    Interior décor and beautiful views of the trees and sky.
    Mike W.

    Cute little place with an Asian spin on many of the menu items. Indoor, and small covered patio dining areas. Views of the surrounding trees and mountains add to the ambiance. The service was good, as was the food. We stopped in for lunch and tried a cup of Beef Vegetable Soup ($5), a 3 pc Fried Chicken Strips ($8), a Mushroom Burger & Onion Rings ($18), and a bowl of Chicken Dumpling Soup ($22). Both soups and the onion rings were very good, the burger and chicken strips were okay. Overall, we enjoyed our experience, and would stop in again, maybe for some breakfast. Worth a visit.

    Omelette with potatoes
    Grater F.

    We came to the Mile High Cafe for breakfast both days we stayed in Idyllwild and ordered the exact same things both times (creatures of habit haha). The vibe is homey and has some beautiful art pieces on the walls with an impressive plant display. Breakfast was delicious and you can grab your coffee or matcha order at the attached Alpaca Coffee. Customer service was 10/10 and I highly recommend you snag a seat by the wood stove if you're visiting during a colder month. I ordered an omelette with potatoes and a fresh squeezed OJ and my friend got the avocado toast with a side of extra crispy bacon.

    Fried rice with egg
    Daisy A.

    Right next door to alpaca coffee. Food was fresh and pretty good. The fried rice could have used a side of gochujang. My Asian chicken salad was good and glad they put the dressing on the side it would have been too sweet if I would have used it all. Good amount of chicken. The boy enjoyed his chicken strips and the sweet potato fries were nice and crispy.

    My colleagues and I were in town for a conference and staying about a mile and a half from here. I…read moreran it and raved about the beef and crispy noodles and the calamari. On our journey to Palm Springs my team left the food choices to me since I'm picky. Lol. We showed up on a Wednesday night (note that they do not open Monday and Tuesday), around 4:40 PM. There was already a long line of individuals waiting to get in. There were about 15 people ahead of us. At opening, we were immediately sat down into the second dining room to the right of the restaurant. It gives a different vibe than the main room with its red bench seating and lantern ceiling. Although the benches were high, and the tables were a little low, we managed. Of course, we tried the complementary congee. Which I love, but my colleagues were not a big fan of. We ordered the calamari and the crispy beef noodle. We also ordered the shrimp and mango spring roll, the softshell crab and green papaya salad, and the pork belly lettuce wraps. The shining stars, for my colleagues were the calamari and crispy beef noodle. Followed by the shrimp and mango spring rolls and the softshell crab. The three of us did not enjoy the pork belly at all even though it came recommended. We actually only ate 2 pieces. The food overall was good although we wish we didn't get the pork or at least stuck to our goal of four main dishes. The waitress recommended we get one more and that's when we added the pork. Next time we will go with our gut instinct. One thing that was disappointing on this visit was that when we ordered drinks, one of them came out in a can. We were under the assumption it was a draft pour. For $14 it should have been noted that it is canned. The way that it is written into the menu no one would assume otherwise.

    Owner is rude and aggressive. She insisted, actually forced us to order an entree while we ordered…read morethe appetizers. Then the server refused to give me a refill on my coke. The food was the worst I've ever had. So much sugar in everything. Every sauce especially the coconut cream sauce for the calamari and the curry sauce and the sauce for the spring rolls. We ate it because we were starving but the after effects were awful. Our blood sugar spiked. What a let down. You're better off going to the Holiday House especially Thursday night for their famous fried chicken or brunch on Sundays and any lunch or dinner. Holiday House info from their site: Lunch Monday thru Sunday | 11am-4pm Brunch (Returning October 4th) Saturday & Sunday | 10:30am-3pm Dinner Nightly | 5pm-9pm At The Pantry, they serve a fresh, modern take on classic Americana cuisine by blending traditional favorites with elevated flavors, creative techniques, and influences inspired by California living. The menu highlights the incredible abundance of the Coachella Valley, featuring farm-fresh produce, locally sourced meats, artisanal cheeses, and seasonal ingredients that celebrate the beauty and flavor of the Palm Springs region. Every dish is designed to be both comforting and memorable, with a true sense of place in every bite. And the atmosphere is stunning, fresh, delightful. And Juan Sanchez the food and beverage director is a wonderful and super kind person.

It was a little hard to find the restaurant, especially since the sign is not right over the entrance, but just next to it where the small market is. Look for the Winchester Center sign next to the market. Since we arrived before it opened on a Sunday, we browsed in the market until it was tine to eat. We had a reservation for 6 of us, so they seated us at the one round table near the front. There is another longer table next to it on the left side where there's a colorful mural. The rest of the tables are booths. The restaurant is spacious and roomy and very clean. You can order items from the menu or build your own hot pot which is AYCE. Everyone in our party chose the hot pot. We were each brought a small blue pot that contained the sterno to heat up the soup and the broth of our choice inside. We also placed our meat order with our server. We went to the back-left corner to grab our veggies, and some other things to add to our hot pot. Our server came by often to take more meat orders, clear empty plates, and check if we needed more broth or if our sterno needed more fuel. Our server was delightfully cheerful and friendly. She was helpful and answered all of our questions, especially when we had to choose our broths. (Forgive me for forgetting your name!) I highly recommend calling ahead to make a reservation if you have a larger party. Accessibility notes: most of the tables are padded booths. If you can transfer and slide, you should be okay. Otherwise, see if you can sit at a table that has chairs on the left side. The restaurant is spacious enough to park your mobility aid (or stroller for babies) near you. The restrooms are located in the back-left corner, 2 single stall restrooms, one for men and one for women. There is enough room for someone to enter with their mobility aid and a helper companion. You can enter the restaurant without climbing a step, but I don't recall where the handicap accessible parking was since we used a regular parking space and I climbed up the curb. No one from the family is local, but my brother-in-law chose this restaurant because it's somewhere where we can meet in the middle. We all loved it, and are adding it to our rotation when we need to come together for a celebration.

Someone in my party thought he ordered two mushroom and bacon cheeseburgers, but instead he got two bacon cheeseburgers. When the food came out and he brought this up to the server, she became confrontational. She said "I checked with you twice!" in an angry tone. The person in my party does not speak perfect English, so the server may have been right, but to take that tone was very off-putting. Multiple staff came over at that point and they did offer to bring mushrooms on the side, but the way the server handled her frustration came out in her tone and made the whole table uncomfortable. She angrily said "so are we good or?" and we let the situation go. Still, if I had been the one paying (the person the server took this tone with had paid for the whole table) I certainly would not have left a tip (he still did). The outdoor patio was cute and the indoor area seems fun to spend time in. They have a community bulletin board I liked too as well as their music.
