5 /5 Solar Winds: We came here for our first time on our anniversary in sep 2025. We had camped at the campground many times over the years and just never stopped here before. We used open table to make our reservation here 2 months in advance,which I highly recommend. The process to make reservation through the open table app was totally easy. Dont be the family standing at the front desk claiming to have made a reservation,and yet it magically is not there...its embarrasing to watch people try that BS. The dining room is open for service at 5:30pm and lounge opens at 5:pm with seating being first come first served. You could easily have your entire meal in the lounge.The lounge menu is different,but many have said they have ordered from the dining room menu with no problems at all.So insider tip:if you get a seat at the lounge,you can order anything in the restaurant.We had made reservations for 5:30 pm on a wed and figured it would be not as busy.Boy were we wrong.We were literally the first to be seated,and the hostess gave us our choice of any table in the place.She was very patient actually,and let us take our time.So we were seated and given our menus,and any other details to know as far as our waiter,etc..The ambience of the restaurant was not exactly what I had expected.To be honest,I felt like the furniture looked old and dated,but perhaps that is the vibe they are looking for.The walls gave me a hunting lodge feel.The views from some of the tables had wonderful sweeping views of the sierras.We were seated at a table in the back left of the restaurant and it was comfortable and airy with lots of windows all around.It was daylight out still,so that could change.We looked at our menus and we both knew quickly what we wanted.We ordered the beef wellington with mash potatoes and vegetables, and the rib eye with potato wedges and broccoli.We ordered a rasberry lemon drop martini,and a long island iced tea. Our food was a little bit of a wait,but not bad considering the place was PACKED. Our wait was rewarded with two tastey plates of food.The beef wellington is a hungry mans wet dream.If you want hearty tastey goodness with rich brown gravy and umptious chuncks of meat covered in a flakey pastry crust with mashed potatoes underneath,then dont hesitate."One Beef Wellington please":) The ribeye steak that was ordered was well received and perfect medium as requested.Our drinks were pretty good.The rasberry martini was especially liked.The long island iced tea was normal.Several times the waiters walked by without offering us another drink,and that is why I give 4 stars for service.I am not sure if being a waiter there,is their dream job and it shows. We were offered dessert options and we shared some home made ice cream. We came here for our anniversary because it was a special day.The food was excellent and we would come here again for that.We wouldnt come here again for the atmosphere and wait staff...not because the wait staff were impolite or anything like that...but maybe because you can tell when someone is doing bare minimum.I would 100% come back for the beef wellington,and sit in the lounge at the bar,and then all would be fine.
