    Testimonials

    “We try to eat at the Mountain Room everytime we visit Yosemite. My son has Celiac Disease and in the past The Mountain Room has always been very accommodating. This time when I asked if a particular item was gluten-free, they presented a gluten-free menu. IN THE MIDDLE OF YOSEMITE!!! I can't tell you how great that is. It can be so difficult for my son to have a nice meal like everyone else, and there were a ton of delicious options on your gluten-free menu. Thank you, thank you, thank you.
