Mountain Oaks Cafe

My boyfriend and I came here on our way back from Yosemite, and we're so happy we stopped by! He got the Mexicali Breakfast and I got the Chorizo Breakfast Burrito. Both were delicious and would definitely recommend getting. I love that you can get tortillas with their Mexican style breakfasts and also add on grilled jalapeños for just 50 cents. Service was great and food came out fast. Portions were huge, tables were clean, and they also have patio seating if the weather permits. Next time we come up to the park, we're definitely eating here again.

1/26/25Getting lunch for tomorrow. Called and ordered the Rough Rider sandwich with no mayo, grilled jalapeños and onion rings. The worker was very kind and said it would be ready in 20 minutes. I I went in to get it shortly later. Greeted after a smell wait. Long line. A lot of customers were waiting to be seated. My order was almost ready. Short wait and received! Restaurant is very nice! They were very busy! Must be Great! ;p1/27/25Happy Monday everyone!Lunchtime! Order split. Half of the Rough Rider was Wow DELICIOUS! You get a lot of meat! Large & Tender! Half is plenty! Great, tasty jalapeño too! Onion rings were crunchy and GREAT also! Great service & Great lunch!Highly recommended!!

Very cute little place. I'm not sure if they have a ramp for ADA access. . . we climbed the little stair way to the restaurant. Didn't seem like many but when you're tired, cold and your Bones hurt it's a struggle. We were quickly greeted and seated. He sat us by the window and it was so cold. I had to keep my jacket and sweater on. When looking around I saw everyone else had there's on too. ***I forgot pictures AGAIN ‍***We ordered a senior meatloaf dinner. It came with about 3 slices of meatloaf, mashed potatoes and gravy, vegetables and your choice of soup or salad. We went with the chili. I had the fish and chips. We also had a mini cherry pie (of course we had to eat that first). The pie was ok (mom loved it). The crust lost its crispness when it was microwaved. The meatloaf was tasty. The mashed potatoes must have been heated in the microwave because the middle was warm but the outer edges were very cold. The veggies were hot and still had a bite (a little hard still. . . mom didn't like that). The chili was hearty. It looked like it had chunks of ground beef and maybe chunks of steak. It had shredded cheese and sour cream (we asked for no onions) and a side of crackers. I probably would have been very satisfied with that. The fish was really good. I think it was 4 or 5 pieces, fries, and coleslaw. I asked for the fries extra crispy and they were. I loved them. We had so much food leftover. We could have shared one meal. The highlight. . . staff! Everyone that helped us was nice and welcoming. We were checked in just enough.

Everyone is so friendly here, and the food is delicious and place is nice and clean. We came back another time and ordered the same thing: country, fried steak, and eggs, and a chili Verde omelette.

My man and I arrived in Oakhurst starving and ready for lunch! We had been in the car for about three hours, so we wanted to eat before we checked in at our hotel. My first choice was a poke food truck, however, it wasn't where it was listed on Yelp. Assuming it was closed for Christmas vacation, we came to this cafe instead. It was highly rated, so it would be good enough for a nice meal. Since we both wanted something light, we each had a salad. I had the Apple Pecan Chicken and he opted for the Salmon. The portions were huge! My plate was piled high with grilled chicken pieces, which I thought was a little too much. Even though the chicken was cooked well, I couldn't eat it all. I enjoyed the sweetness of the apple and the crunchiness of the pecans. There was a piece of bread on the side, but I didn't get to finish that either. I didn't bother trying my man's salad, but he was pleased. We were both highly satisfied with our meals. Our server was friendly and efficient. We were ready to continue with our romantic getaway!

You will definitely not leave here hungry! My hubby and I stopped off here as we were passing through and it was a great last minute stop. We were famished from being in the mountains all day and decided to stop here. I ordered a club sandwich with a side salad before my sandwich, and my husband had a triple cheeseburger. I was pleasantly surprised with how fresh everything was. The salad was crisp and fresh, the sandwich was flavorful and crafted perfectly, and the fries were done exactly the way I like them... crispy! My husband loved his burger and from the small bite I took, it tasted like it was made with fresh ingredients. Our server was extremely friendly and attentive and we enjoyed the occasional humorous comments from him. I loved how lowkey and casual the restaurant is which definitely adds to the comfort vibes. I would like to come back when we are headed this way again! Thanks for an amazing meal... we really appreciated the freshness and awesome service.

Came here while on Vacation to Yosemite, this place was delicious.The home made menudo was so flavorful and had a nice spicy kick to it that made it taste authentic. The chicken fried steak was good and the portions were on part with the price point. The service was exceptional, we were a party of 20 and only waited for 10 minutes! Super fast friendly staff will definitely be back when we travel this way. Sensory level was a 6 and good outdoor eating area available.

My group stopped by this cafe for brunch on our way home from Yosemite National Park on 11/11/24. The food was great, but the service was a bit slow (which is why I had to knock off one star).I ordered the Denver Omelette with Hash Browns and sourdough toast. The portion size was just right and the taste was very fresh. My party members had similar positive comments regarding the dishes they ordered.I would definitely give this place another visit the next time we visit Yosemite NP.

I 100 recommend this place. we came up for a family trip and stopped to eat. hands down best comfort food and all around great service.

Visiting for the weekend and this place was amazing. The service was great! The owner is on site greeting the customers. The portions are huge and the food was delicious! The atmosphere is very cozy, well lit and smells great! Definitely recommend!
