WUKSACHI LODGE® DINING ROOM

Serving Earth Friendly Foods and Stunning Views

Wuksachi Lodge's glass-walled restaurant is a High Sierra theater for sumptuous foods and spectacular views.

The 90-seat dining room combines an upscale, rustic décor with a blend of forest-inspired colors and floor-to-ceiling windows to create a setting that is at once cozy and elegant.  By day, the views of the surrounding forest are a compelling distraction for diners of all ages.  Evenings, a massive stone fireplace and relaxed atmosphere invite guests to linger over dinner and dessert.

Open year round, the Wuksachi Dining Room serves breakfast, lunch, and dinner daily.  As the premier dining destination in Sequoia National Park, the restaurant menus easily accommodate a variety of palates and appetite sizes.  A bountiful breakfast buffet (served seasonally) is a popular choice for guests building energy for a day of active recreation.  A casual lunch menu caters to hungry guests on the go (with box lunches available, too).  At dinner time, guests can go casual or opt for elegance, thanks to a menu that is both varied and innovative.  A full bar featuring specialty mountain themed cocktails and an extensive wine list complements the Wuksachi dining experience.

Chef de Cuisine Jaime Rigau oversees a menu that is rich in earth-friendly foods that utilize fresh, local, and seasonal food products.  As part of Delaware North Companies’® focus on sustainable cuisine, Chef Rigau incorporates ecologically friendly seafood, farm-raised poultry, and hormone-free beef and game products whenever possible.  And, he is finding a very positive response from health conscious guests.

"We are seeing a significant increase in the number of our guests requesting natural and organic menu items," notes Chef Rigau.  "The concept of sustainable cuisine is an ideal combination of nutrition, taste, and environmental consciousness that we are pleased to support."
 
In the middle of a National Park, where elevations rise to nearly 15,000 feet, Wuksachi is blessed with a spectacular setting for its restaurant.  And, with his approach to healthful, flavorful dining, Chef Rigau’s culinary offerings rise to the same high levels.

Testimonials

“We brought our daughters and their families (10 of us) to Sequoia and stayed at the Wuksachi Lodge.  We had a wonderful time.  The staff was friendly and helpful.  The rooms were clean.  We ate several meals at the Lodge and everyone enjoyed them.  I have recommended Wuksachi to family and friends.  Hopefully we can go back in Summer to see more of the forest since some areas were closed for the winter.”
– Nancy and Ed C.
