The Best Restaurants to Try in the LA Mountains This Summer | Eater LA

"Another hot-spot dinner option in Idyllwild, Cafe Aroma came under new ownership in recent years. While the food and drink options are abundant, the real charm comes from the space itself — a small cabin that happens to be a fully functioning restaurant, complete with string lights that glow at twilight and dining areas with eclectic art. Expect to wait a while, and, rather than rushing through your meal, welcome the leisurely pace the forest and mountains encourage (an order of bananas Foster to cap the night is always welcome). Among the easy French and Italian dishes, there are plenty of vegan and gluten-free options, too." - Mona Holmes
