A true gem, nestled just north of June Lake, in Lee Vining, provided an unforgettable fine dining experience. Locally sourced ingredients, impeccable service, and a chef withculinary know how are the stand out factors for my review. But it doesn't end there. This restaurant withstands the test of timeby serving experiences for 100 years. Enjoy your meal downstairs, but also be sure to head up to the second floor, where you canenjoy a rich library of cook books, appreciate local artist displays, and my favorite, an antique square grand piano. Rich inflavor history, the Mono Inn is truly a landmark of the Eastern Sierras. Can't wait to return with my family.

After a couple of disappointing visits after Sarah Adams (Ansell's granddaughter) moved on, we stopped going. A friend sharedhow good it was on FB so we dropped in when passing by on the offchance. The food and wine was out of this world and notoverpriced. The service impeccable (thanks Lizzie) and we were dressed for a long drive home in sweats and that was perfectlyacceptable. Unpretentious and affordable. Worth the 30 minute drive from Mammoth Lakes.

The burger was really good as well a the fries that came with it. And the Mediterranean spreads were a great start.

We had a party of four and our reservation was at 5:15. We were seated right away and stayed for acouple hours. Great ambiance. The new owner was the hostess and she was so kind and came around throughout the night to makesure we had everything we needed. The owner mentioned they are starting to do weddings and receptions in April and Brunchstarting in April. We can?t wait to come back time and again. What a refreshing change, so glad we went.
