The Lakefront - MAMMOTH LAKES

Had an amazing dinner here with my dad. It is a small private fine dining restaurant in the lodge with a very tiny bar. I had two Bulleit Bourbon Old Fashion's which were delicious, and we had the Lobster Ravioli for an appetizer and I ordered the Elk main course for dinner which was amazing and mouth watering. I also had the Chocolate Mouse for desert which was fantastic. Highly recommend this place for fine dining. I believe reservations need to be booked a few days or weeks in advance, since there is a total of only none tables in the dining area. Fine dining also means high prices for excellent food and service, so don't expect a cheap bill for an amazing experience. I believe we spent about $100 or more per person.

A wonderful experience Food: 4 Service: 5 Atmosphere: 4

Charming as ever, Lakefront is a special place. Service is over the top as is the food. Small by creative gourmet menu. My husband had the Elk and I had the short ribs--best I have ever tasted and incredibly tender. Lakefront is small and intimate, wonderfully quiet with views our every window of Twin lakes and the mountains. Definitely an occasion place

25 Years ago my husband proposed to me here.... I said yes. We recently went back and not only is it still as charming, beautiful and historic... the inside is still exactly the same and the service, food and staff still exceptional. A beautiful setting amongst the mountain, Twin Lakes, cottages and cabins that you will remember for a lifetime. A great place for a marriage proposal

Overall, I’m not sure that I’d return. The menu was small and my entree, halibut, didn’t seem cooked completely. Service was also completely slow. We had to request Beltran because we were starving. The waitress said we could get it once we placed our orders. What????? My daughter had the kids steak filet. That was amazing.
