Restaurants near Pellier Historical Park

I had the pleasure of dining with my family at Rainbird for Thanksgiving dinner, and the experience was nothing short of exceptional. From the thoughtfully curated menu to the perfectly paired drinks, every detail reflected the chef’s dedication to showcasing the agricultural bounty of the Valley. The sweet potatoes were a standout—both forward-thinking and deeply rooted in tradition, serving as a beautiful homage to the seasonal ingredients and the region’s rich heritage. This harmonious blend of creativity and respect for local produce elevated the entire meal, making it a memorable celebration of the season and the area’s culinary identity. The dessert, crafted in-house by the pastry chef, was a delightful finale to the meal. Its rich flavors and impeccable presentation perfectly capped off an already exceptional dining experience. I hope the chef considers hosting Thanksgiving dinner—or even lunch—again in the future, as this thoughtful and delicious offering is truly something to look forward to.

The dining room is a magnificent hall. The surrounding view is breathtaking, especially in the daylight for breakfast. Our servers were great. The hotel is in the midst of some construction, so the main kitchen has not reopened yet. Therefore all meals are buffet. That is why I gave the food 4 stars. For buffet food was good and plentiful, but I will come back another time to order off the menu for the 5 star food experience. The experience over all was worth it.

The service was good and they fixed mistakes once identified. The experience was great with showing Friends and trivia. The chicken and waffle is not as it used to be.

The June Bug Cafe has great food at a reasonable price in a grown-up camp atmosphere which is fitting, as the whole Yosemite Bug feels like a really cool, funky summer camp in the woods, for all ages. Big portions, well made, fresh meals. We stayed at a different hotel recently and, after a disappointing breakfast at that hotel, drove to the June Bug for a great, satisfying breakfast the next morning.

What a fun night!!! Live music, great ambiance, and wonderful pizza. Pinot Grigio is great too!
