In a busy city, I would give this place a 3-star review, but because of the limited opportunities…read morein this mountain town, it gets 4-stars today. Small coffee shop off the main road from Bobs Market. There is room for about 13 seating inside including two pub style tables. Everything is made fresh to order so don't expect a quick in and out especially if there are other patrons her. There was a one employee working and could have been a bit more friendly, but to each is own. There is a sign at the register that reads "please be patient, everything is made to order. We are a small business, not Starbucks." The coffee is good. The breakfast burritos are just ok . There wasn't any salsa or hot sauce for the burrito so it was a bit plain. The fact that they are open on a Tuesday morning while the competition is closed Tuesday and Wednesdays like a few other businesses to match China Peak days/hours is pretty good. Cheers!

I can definitely appreciate this coffee shop. As it's the main one in downtown Shaver .

Hear me out! I know Shaver Lake is a small community and dining options are limited…read more The food is a 0/0, especially for the fine dining prices. The food quality, taste or lack there of, and plate presentation is lacking. We ordered: The Calamari Steak appetizer. It was mushy, cold, and flavorless. $22 Pine Nut Salad with Grilled Chicken (+$14) I thought it would be like Dog House Grills Salad. NO. It was disgusting, lack of substance, flavor, presentation etc. how do you mess up a salad?? Filet Mignon- ordered medium. Over cooked to med well/well done. They smooshed this $50+ entree on to the smallest plate. 1/2 rack of lamb chops. My poor husband was absolutely bamboozled LOL. There was a SMALL bite of meat on each "chop" they were also dry and overcooked. The Drinks: Margarita and Old Fashion were very good! 4/5 stars! If you decide to stop here; do yourself a favor and save time and money by just grabbing a drink at the bar. Don't eat the flavorless, disappointing food. The owners need to taste the food coming out of that kitchen and manage plate presentation.

Been to Aroma a few times and it could be hit or miss. But last night was a hit…read more Service was great. We had the salmon and pork chop followed by the apple cobbler. All the dishes were very good, well presented and tasty. And my one test are the veggies. Broccoli and asparagus were green and tender but not over done. We live in Shaver and the dining establishments are limited so nice to see Aroma stepping up their game. And the topper was the fire in the stove that kept my wife warm on what turned out to be a rainy and snow night. Great job and look forward to our next visit.

So I went…read moreexpecting a great steak, When my steak got to my table it was very undercooked, I asked for medium rare I got rare, the mashed potatoes were more like lumpy baked potatoes but really not that bad the steak really wasn't that bad but it wasn't really that good either, Not to mention the service was bad, when my server came to my table she just kind of stared at me when I told her my drink order so I asked if she wanted to see my ID ? And she said no and proceeded, never did she come by to see if everything was good or if I even wanted another drink, but I noticed when other people came in they got a whole rundown on the chef special of the day all the drinks they offer and so on, my experience here was not good I don't recommend this place at all

We had a large group with multiple dogs, so we sat out on the deck nearby, and the staff still went above and beyond bringing out our takeout food and helping us with drinks. The food was so good. We ordered the fish and chips, Bomb Burger (both delicious), the salmon protein bowl, chicken tenders, and a Philly cheesesteak. Everything hit. Our teenage girls were able to sit at their own table inside the restaurant, and they were treated so kindly, which I really appreciated. We were in Yosemite celebrating my niece's 18th birthday, and this was our first meal of the trip. It ended up being such a perfect, memorable start. The location is beautiful, right on the resort in a quieter part of the lake, and the weather made it even better. Highly recommend if you're in the area.

The Inelle was our home base for our 4 night visit to Yosemite. We had breakfast here each morning…read more Food was very good and the front of house staff Sam and Bob were fantastic. They got to know us over the four days and by the end, knew my family's order exactly. Bob is great to talk baseball with and Sam has great insights about the surrounding area. Back of house was a little inconsistent. I got the classic breakfast w/ sausage all four mornings. In that time, I was served three different types of breakfast sausage. They also have great breakfast potatoes that come with sautéed onions and peppers, again, they were delicious but inconsistent. A couple of times there was an abundance of onions and peppers, the others I had to search for them. Finally, they tended to lack certain menu items. My daughter loved their overnight oats. However on our final morning, they were not available because the kitchen didn't prep them the night before.

After a multi hour road trip, my friend and I Denise got here. It was the last intentional spot in…read moreour day. But there was something we had not considered, we were going to be going to a place that required us to be fresh and ready to receive the wonder of place by a lack and we only had the energy for an angry stop at a gas station. So this place I visited when I was tired and that kind of gunked up the experience. If I would have gone with more energy to fully open my eyes than this experience would have been wondrous. When I booked the reservation I did it because it was a place by a lake. I enjoy water front dining and I usually use an ocean for scenery and today I was in a place where I could use a large creek. And since I was not going with any specific expectations that lake hit me like a bucket of wow. I remember like seeing the mouth of the lake going down like actual rocks. Like I was seeing the waters that people raft on with commitment to the outdoors. It felt like I had traveled into a place where trees were purest, bird melodies were the only noise in town (besides the water running in the creek), and cabins belonged to those who called the mountains home. I was in a novel and for some reason I felt like it was written by Twain. And that is really what I can say about this place. That is mostly what I remember the beauty of the creek. I wanted to spend more time there, I could have walked it, they had like a lounge but I did not. But I do remember the forested view that went on, and the roaring, jagged leg being a central character other than that I have small things to say. I remember the salad being ok. Denise and I shared a dish, I can't remember why but we did not eat the whole thing. It was inherently bad. But this could have been an off night, or just not the dish of the place, and really you go here for the lake, and the food was great in some ways just not in this specific way. I went to this place a few weeks ago, and, if I had not make it clear I remember the experience of being with the lake. So go here for that experience and let the rest just fall into place.
