The Mountain Room
Mountain Room Restaurant
A steakhouse offering views of Yosemite Falls through floor-to-ceiling windows, with a more relaxed atmosphere than The Ahwahnee, open for dinner only.
Located inside the Yosemite Valley Lodge, the main highlight here is the view of Yosemite Falls through the floor-to-ceiling windows. Positioned as a casual upscale steakhouse, the menu features steaks like filet mignon, ribeye, and New York strip, alongside almond-crusted rainbow trout and French onion soup, with vegetarian stews also available. Open for dinner only; reservations via OpenTable are highly recommended during the summer. The adjacent lounge requires no reservations and serves beer, cocktails, and light bites. It holds a 4.1 rating on OpenTable, though reviews for the rainbow trout are mixed. Closing times vary across different sources, so please confirm on the official website before heading out.
