Skadi

Highly recommended. The ambiance and attention to detail was very appealing. Our server, Laura, was superb. My partner and I split several options so we could try more items on the menu. The complexity and flavor of the options was impressive. The presentation artful. The wine selection was splendid. Chef Ian made a point to visit our table which was a beautiful and intimate touch. Well done! Thank you for a memorable and sophisticated dinner experience. I can’t wait to return.

I visited Mammoth Mt. several times, but haven't known such nice restaurant in town. Very sophisticated meals.

This is the BEST restaurant in mammoth. I’ve lived here for 6 years and the food and experience is unbeatable. Fine dining with a small town feel. Everything is made from scratch, the service is top notch, great choices for food and each plate purposefully designed. Wonderful wine list (save room for port). I’ve been here many times and each visit is an experience I’ll remember forever!

THE BEST meal in Mammoth. We came here on Christmas Eve. Having been to many fine dining restaurants, we were still surprisingly amazed by Skadi. Food was phenomenal, vibe was immaculate, and service was impeccable. Very reasonably priced compared to similar restaurants in LA. The chef was super fun and down to earth, very obviously proud and passionate about his creations and was eager to share his knowledge with us. We sat at the chef’s counter with an open kitchen right in front of us and loved watching the kitchen staff prep every dish. This intimate fine dining restaurant super close to the Village serving Nordic cuisine is exactly what we need after a cold and exhausting day on the slopes! Would 100% recommend!

From the food selection to the exquisite cooking we enjoyed our time at Skadi. Don’t let the initial walk in towards the hotel fool you. This is a great restaurant. We had an appetizer with salmon that was really good. The duck breast was cooked to perfection and very tasty. Dessert was a choice of chocolate display and very well done. No kids under 10? Excellent decision from a quality restaurant. Thank you

My family and myself went to Skadi because we saw great reviews. They had a nice menu. We decided to order two appetizers which were great. My husband and I decided to order the New York steak and split it since it was 16 oz. It was very good. My daughter ordered the seasoned chicken, she loved it. It a small and cozy restaurant. Nice decor and great service.

It took me years to finally be organized enough to make a reservation in advance. I’m so glad I did. The food is absolutely amazing. Everything is prepared immaculately and the flavors are incredible. Skadi has a great wine list and a menu that makes it hard to decide. I’ve been twice now and have been blown away both times. Chef Ian is a master! I couldn’t recommend it more highly. The duck (first photo) is to die for.

A very lovely meal that was a bit expensive for the portion sizes but we enjoyed everything we ate. Some highlights were the GravLox and the duck breast. The outside of the building was not what we expected although the inside was nice. The service was also excellent.

Enjoyed a really exquisite meal here for my wife birthday . We sat in a charming throne table and decided to try new things. Started with an outstanding wild mushroom crepe that is crisped just right . Wife finally dies not care for crepes but the sauces and texture were fantastic, more like a crepe layer cake. The scallops with cauliflower puree was fantastic, as was the potato cooked in duck con fit. I had the venison sausage with corn cakes and fresh huckleberries which was a really light tasty sausage that was my first venison experience and I lived it. Unfortunately my duck breast was too well done, med well, which never should happen but that's ok we still had a great time.

Place is great. Just need to put the full 750 ml bottle of Billecarte Salmom Brut Rose' on the list. Pretty please?

We celebrated our 29th anniversary at Skadi. We were welcome at the door by Ian. The service and food is amazing. We had the mushroom crêpe, little gem salad, and the scallops, all the dishes were awesome. I can't say enough about the service, it was beyond anything I've ever experienced. Definitely recommend and will return, well done.

We celebrated my husband's birthday at Skadi and were completely blown away. The flavors, the presentation, the warm service, everything was perfect. Highlights: the Smoked Red Deer Heart with Cloudberries & Spruce Salt (wildly good), the Hamachi appetizer, the Canadian Duck Breast with Lingonberries, and the Duroc Pork Belly with Spiced Tenderloin & Jagerwurst, every dish was beautifully balanced and memorable. We ended with the Lemon Panna Cotta, which was bright, creamy, and the perfect finale. Chef Ian and Manager Chris made us feel like family. Skadi is a true Mammoth gem - We can't wait to come back!

Best meal in Mammoth. The service was friendly and food was delicious! The salmon was cooked to perfection, the hamachi app was also a highlight. This was a great place to catch up with family, not too stuffy but more elevated than most of the restaurants in Mammoth. With apps, dessert, bottle of wine and entree ran about $100 per person (group of 6). Will definitely return when I'm back in the area!

Went with my honey today for my birthday; Ian is the absolute best and the service is incredible. The food is amazing, the staff is very kind, and the restaurant is beautiful. If I could give this place more stars I would, our experience couldn't have been better. They took such great care of us. :) Also, the vanilla bean crème brûlée was the best I've ever had.

The food is delicious as always! The new location is very reminiscent of the iterations. The menu also seems to be the same. But hey! If it ain't broke, don't fix it! Skadi's is a wonderful meal and experience all around.

Food is outstanding and service is very good. My favorite Mammoth Lakes restaurant. Only trouble some times is getting a reservation.

My husband, brother and I came here for dinner on a Friday night in December 2023 while we were visiting Mammoth Lakes. I'd seen reviews of Skadi saying that reservations were necessary, so I texted their number a week before coming and was able to get a reservation, though they had limited times. We came at our scheduled time and were seated immediately. The restaurant has an understated, rustic chic vibe that feels elegant at the same time. Our server was professional and efficient and gave us some recommendations. The three of us ordered some appetizers to share, one main each, and also shared the creme brulee and lemon panna cotta for dessert. Everything we had was perfect and flavorsome, as well as satiating. I'd highly recommend visiting for a nice dinner if you're in Mammoth Lakes, and will be dining here again whenever I come back.

We have been going since they first opened. Ware is now the mammoth Tavern. We just experienced our anniversary dinner for the 27th time with them in their new place. Three places later. Food was amazing. Service was amazing and I just can't tell you how much I love this place if you want a high-end restaurant, this is the best restaurant in this area!

CLOSED FOR BREAKFAST permanently as of 2/24/25. But dinner is still open Wed-Sunday and excellent as always

Excellent food and service. The Ambiance was super! A gem in Mammoth! Highly recommended!

We didn't have reservations here planned but managed to get in at the last minute from calling the restaurant a couple times during our time in Mammoth. It seems to be a Scandinavian themed restaurant based on some of the menu items. The bread knife they provided during the bread service was a wooden knife hand carved by the head chef himself. The food here was really outstanding. My husband wanted to try one of the more exotic appetizers so we opted for one that had shaved deer heart on a cracker topped with a sweet jam. He ordered the duck breast and I opted for a very simple dish, chicken breast but it came topped over porcini mushroom and spinach risotto with Parmesan sea foam. I've never had chicken breast that tender and flavorful and the risotto mix was so rich and delicious! The whole experience was very delightful! We will be back the next time we are in town!

Dessert was the best part. For the price point we expected more of a flavorful experience. Service was amazing though.

Simply fantastic from start to finish. Great team, great food. The food felt at once innovative but also approachable. Perfect night in the middle of a ski week. Thank you to all!

My husband and I took our Daughter to dinner here, she picked Skadi out to eat. It's a small city restaurant. It's an upscale restaurant, one of the best in Mammoth. We ordered two appetizers with our entree. It's near the Village so it's close to shops , restaurants etc The food was outstanding, definitely recommend dining here. We had great service while we dined.

Make sure to make reservations in advance! I saw at least three parties get turned away because they couldn't accommodate them. Reservations are made by texting them but be assured it's legit. It's so nice to have a unique fine dining option in Mammoth. The restaurant is a small, cozy venue with a ski lodge vibe. We grabbed a table, which was quieter and more private, but next time I think I'll try the counter view to see the kitchen action. The food was well presented and very flavorful overall. Starting with apps, we tried the gravlax, which was on the smaller portion but tasted nice. The ahi tuna tartare is basically like sushi in a shareable form with a bunch of furikake on top but still really nice. For mains, we had scallops and the venison medallions. The scallops were made perfectly, while the venison is good if you like gamier meats but it's still relatively tender for a lean meat. The best dish or surprise in my opinion was actually the dessert. We wanted something lighter to end the meal so went with the gateau financier with lychee sorbet and this was so tasty. We shared this dish but I could honestly eat the whole thing on my own. It's super unique with hints of fresh fruit and the pineapple with mint was such a nice touch. Overall, I highly recommend this place if you want to change up the pace with something a little more upscale yet approachable.

Tucked away in a new location just off Main Street, the food is out of this world. The presentations are superb and the wines are well matched. Don't skip dessert with the choice of chocolates and lemon panna cotta that is unbeatable. Reservations are best made well in advance if possible.

We had a wonderful dining experience! Great food, excellent service & nice atmosphere. Highly recommend!

New location, same special food offerings. Love this restaurant. Great wine list and unusual menu items make for a memorable unique meal.

Been going here for years. Really the only fine dining in mammoth, but even if it were in NYC or LA, the food is excellent. The servers are all extremely knowledge and have been working there for years. Chef Ian is always there and making sure everything is perfect. The menu hasn't changed since the first time I went five years ago, but why mess with perfection. New location has better parking and same sweet Nordic vibe. Reservations are a must. Definitely not a place to experience on a whim. My only regret is that this stellar review might make it more difficult for me to get a reservation next time.

My friends have been raving about Skadi, and I could not agree more. Now I understand why they always have to stop into Skadi. Not only is the food absolutely delicious, the ambience is very welcoming like eating a home cooked meal, and the staff is absolutely the best! Chef Ian was definitely the cherry on top! He is such a pleasure to speak with, and his passion for eating great food and serving amazing food is just an absolutely pleasure. I loved everything I tried and left with a huge smile on my face and a happy belly. Can't go wrong here! Just make sure to make reservations!

My sister surprised me and my step mom with a birthday dinner here on our trip to Mammoth! We enjoyed an amazing fine dining experience. Our waiter was so knowledgeable and extremely friendly.! Great food Great service Great wine AMAZING Panna Cotta!

My wife and I stumbled upon this place (via yelp) and managed to get a reservation "same day" due to a cancellation. We arrived when they opened and got to talk to chef Ian briefly - to learn some history of the place. We sat at the Chef's Counter and had a wonderful food - appetizers, salad, and mains. It was hard to choose from the menu - but we intend to come back and keep working through the options. The price point isn't cheap (especially for a "ski town"), but the food was amazing - worth the cost - and the portions were large enough that we didn't have room for dessert (will not make that mistake next time). Our server (Laura) was excellent - enough attention to keep us happy without being intrusive. We already have our next reservation for our trip back in March.

Exceptional and unique dishes! Outstanding service to match, all in a converted depot. Fun, eclectic deco, and simple but very neat table setting is putting the focus on the food. A fantastic evening!

Restaurant Skadi serving the absolute Best Breakfast in Mammoth Lakes, CA! Wow! Not only is this Mammoth Lakes Premier Dining Establishment, but they are now serving the best food for an incredible Breakfast as well! These guys got it going on People! The food, the service and the ambiance in their new location is a must visit for either meal!

The entire experience was a 10/10 Ian the owner was so nice and thoughtful. All the staff were great as well. The food was delicious! And the overall vibe was great.

Food is always delicious. Ian does a great job and is very imaginative. It was sad to hear he had to move out of his secret spot by the village. Hopefully his new place will be bigger, as I'm looking forward to celebrating another grand opening with him.

Food was amazing as was service and ambiance. Wish they were open for my upcoming trip

I'm super happy that my husband booked this restaurant. It's probably the best meal I've had in a long time. Every single dish is well designed and executed, I can tell chef put a lot of efforts and study behind. We ordered 3 appetizers which are deer heart, mushroom crepe and today's special, which is like a gelatin mixed with duck, goose and pheasant, it's like a Russian-style ham I had before. Deer heart is the most impressive dish, the 4 layers are perfectly designed together to balance all the flavors in one bite. Mushroom crepe is super umami with the mushroom paste, slices and sauces all together. Jarlsberg cheese is so well to be the layers for mushrooms. Duck breasts are perfectly cooked, I love the German sauerkraut and raspberry sauce to garnish with it. The Swiss - German style dumplings are perfect to be the side. The dessert - Skadi's Chocolate Tastings, OMG, it's such a star to end the meal. All the chocolate desserts on that plate need to be treated seriously, because every single bite is so flavorful. There are so many things going on once you put it in your mouth. I can write a whole article about the foods here. But what you can do is just to book a reservation and come to try it out by yourself.

Ambience: 2 Service: 5 Food: 3 My husband and I were excited to try this place. We had the Sashimi of Japanese Hamachi with Green Tea Soba Noodles, Edamame bean, scallion ginger, sriracha and tobiko for our starter. It was really fresh high quality yellow tail. It was outstanding. I also want to mention the freshly baked bread they served us was delicious, a bit crispy on the outside and soft on the inside. My husband ordered the Roast Chicken Breast. I had the Day Boat Scallops. We didn't feel there was anything outstanding about either dish. They were good not outstanding. Both dishes were bland. Neither dish knocked us off our feet. At that price point it should be a party in your mouth as far as I'm concerned. We didn't say anything to our waiter about it because really what's the point. They make a point to let you know their chef is "crazy." Service was outstanding. They kept our glasses full and refilled our wine as necessary. We were given fresh utensils for each course. The ambience is really lacking at this place. No white linens, no candles on the tables and an awkward décor all around. The music was nice not too loud. I might go back for the yellow tail sashimi and a couple drinks but I would not do dinner there again.

Overpriced mediocre food a lot more better places to eat or less money and better quality food

100% the best dinners! The menu is always perfect with nightly specials. Our favorite mushroom soup (sounds much better when they explain it) was so great we can never pass it up! Mushroom crepe is my go to either as an appetizer or main course. My husband had the venison 2-ways so delish! Chef Ian is great and gracious and greets all his customers and makes them feel special! Love him! His staff is just as amazing and wonderful! Thank you for always remembering our crème brûlée

*Make reservations. It's a small restaurant that aims to please visitors versus trying to clear tables and maximize profits. I saw them turn people away at the door. Instructions for reservations are on the website. They ask you to text or email but we called and got through. We called at around 4PM and got a 715PM reservation (on a Thursday). However, this was right after the national forests closed so I'd imagine that demand was down. Superb. One of the best dining experiences I've had in a long time. Also, I don't think I've ever been to a Nordic-inspired restaurant so that's new. MENU: Excellent. Multiple dishes to choose from including pescatarian and vegetarian options. The chef isn't a fan of substitutions and it's clear why. Each dish is masterfully crafted with a perfect blend of balanced ingredients. It's art - don't mess with it (unless you have allergies obviously). They also have a great selection of wine and beer. I tried a Nordic plum sour beer that was fantastic (Nøgne Ø Opal Skies). FOOD: Phenomenal. Everything is perfect. We tried the mushroom crepes (divine), smoked trout (superb), smoked red deer heart (unique and delicious), galantine of pheasant (amazing flavor combination), and the scallops (blown away; the texture was like butter). Finished it off with a yummy lemon panna cotta dessert. I almost forgot! The bread that comes with the meal is delicious but the butter that comes with the bread? Heavenly. Seriously, the texture is incredible. I had to ask for more. SERVICE: Great. The chef walks around and talks to all the diners. He's a nice guy and a pleasure to talk to. It's also an open kitchen so you get to see the care and work that goes into these dishes. I highly recommend this wonderful restaurant.

If you visit Mammoth - this is a must stop if you love food, excellent service, and a quiet but fine dining ambiance! Chef Ian and his team put on a culinary Cabaret here in Mammoth. I had the gravlax starter which had some of the best smoked salmon I have had - it melts in your mouth - not chewy! The mushroom tart is amazing - pls order it. It is like a cheese and mushroom cake. A fantastic idea! Had the sampler of meats: sausage, pork belly and tenderloin. All executed really well and the crisp on the pork belly was outstanding! Crispy salmon was a winner - did not stick to the pan, was evenly cooked and I felt like ordering another piece!

First of all, Chris was a fantastic waiter! Chef personally came out and talked to us about his menu, what a nice man with an amazing vision!!! We started with a wild mushroom and Jarlsberg cheese crepe - may be the finest thing I've ever eaten. Salad with mozzarella cheese and dried tomatoes, amazing. Main courses were Canadian duck and pork belly sampler. Fantastic! Lastly we finished with creme brulee and the chocolate sampler pictured. All paired with a bottle of Pinot noir from the Russian River. Simply the best meal ever. If you have a special occasion, or just love great food, I highly recommend Skadi.

Learned about this place on Reddit and it was touted as "The best dining in the Sierras" so of course I had to try. It requires a reservation via text and was unable to reserve a table two weeks prior our trip to Mammoth so I didn't expect that we'd even get to try, but as the old adage says, "You never know if you don't try". So as we just unboarded chair 13 my wife says, "Use your charisma and get us a reservation." So i try to muster as much charisma in my fingers and fire off a text asking if they have anything within the next two days and to my surprise they said they're able to seat us at the "Throne" table for dinner which seats us side-by-side. It's properly named the "Throne" table because it allows us a view of the entire main dining area and kitchen, which is quite appropriate for the royalty that we are. Since I consider this a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity I wanted to try some of the uncommon offerings so we ordered the smoked duck heart as a starter. For our mains I ordered the duck breast and my wife ordered the chicken breast. I would have ordered the chicken but I thought that sounded too basic and didn't want to blow this opportunity, but to my surprise I enjoyed the chicken more than the duck. My wife claims that was the best chicken she's ever had. We finished with the lemon panna cotta. I think my absolute favorite though was the butter they offered with the bread. I want to know what kind of fat they use for the butter because it was so decadent. I think i rubbed it on every other part of my meal just so it wouldn't go to waste. I'm glad that I know Skadi exists and will attempt to get a reservation every time we're up in the Sierras.

Yes, this restaurant has a billion reviews and they are all 5 stars, and I am here to tell you that they deserve every single one of the 5 star reviews. The food is magnificent. One thing we were advised to do, and I would like anyone reading this to also consider doing, is to BE ADVENTUROUS when you go there. The owner and chef is a Californian native but he shared with us that he has Norwegian ancestry, specifically from the Sámi people, which is an indigenous tribe living above the arctic circle. Some of his menu items (which we were so fortunate to try - the smoked red deer heart with cloudberries) are from that culture. It was SO delicious. In fact, everything we had, was amazing. We also had, at our server's recommendation, a Japanese hamachi and scallops small dish. It was fresh and flavorful. The great thing about Norway (at least, this is my takeaway) is that they KNOW FISH and seafood. The next small dish we tried was some savory crepes with mushrooms. I think this was my next favorite dish, next to the smoked deer heart. We also enjoyed the salad, which had the most unique pears either of us ever had. Afterwards, we were on the restaurant's Facebook and saw that the pears were made with Gløgg, "a Norwegian mulled wine with Aquavit, citrus, cinammon, cardamom, star anise and clove." Yum. Then we had our main entree, which was the Canadian duck breast. Our server recommended either the pork belly confit or the duck breast. I don't eat pork, so we went w/the duck. If you look through the reviews, this is one of the entrees people love, and for good reason. It was tender, flavorful, the skin was crispy, the sauce delicious. No Ikea lingonberries here ;) We also couldn't pass up dessert, and we had the frozen carmelized macadamia nut & vanilla bean parfait. If you need any proof that this was an epic dessert, just check out my photos :) All in all, this was one of the most memorable and delicious meals that I won't soon forget. Thank you Skadi!

We had such a great dining experience here tonight. First off we were greeted warmly and seated with our reservation. Our waiter was ever so helpful explaining the dishes. We chose the Sashimi, the Mushroom Crepe, the Duck entree, and the Polynesian inspired dessert. We enjoyed each dish immensely. All were unique and not a typical dinner for us. When each dish was served to us they re-explained what was on the plate. Chef Ian came to chat with us more then once which made us feel so welcomed. We also loved the whipped brown butter and the spatzli. We will absolutely come again.

Upon opening the menu, a line at the bottom reads: no substitutions, our chef is crazy, seriously. Well I must say, if Ian Algeroen is crazy, I don't want to be sane. The venue is small and precisely curated. Minimal decor, some clearly Norwegian accents, an open kitchen, lovely accent lighting, all lead the customer to focus on their companions and their food. A beautiful wine list that spans the globe leaves something for everyone to enjoy. I wish I'd gotten our server's name. He was so professional and pleasant, we enjoyed his service immensely. The menu! I recall 6 appetizers, 2 salads, 1 soup, 6 or 7 entrees, 5 desserts. Total. Why mess with perfection? I can see why substitutions are denied. The kitchen is a well oiled machine, a gorgeous dance between 3-4 people sautéing, plating, and serving. Such artistic presentation. There were 6 of us. Apps to start.. We ordered the crepes with mushroom duxelles, cherry wood smoked trout, house cured gravlax, and baby gem salad with blue cheese and beets. I really thought the crepe would be my favorite, but I added the gravlax at the last minute and was so happy I did. It was such a lovely dish. All of them were, but that was such a refreshingly pleasant surprise. The cure of the salmon was delicate and light, the seed bread with butter and mustard sauce just added to the amazing marriage of flavors. The crepes were rich and had a great depth of umami flavor, one of us actually spread the remaining sauce on the bread because the flavor was so amazing. The trout was so nice. Thumb sized chunks of pink trout on top of finely chopped haricots vert and potatoes, with that delicious horseradish creme fraiche. And the gem salad was perfection. Crisp, fresh lettuce with a sharp danish blue cheese, and the gold and red beets. Just lovely, and a great balance. Blue cheese can be strong, overpowering sometimes, but this was just an ideal combination. Main dishes: 3 of us had the scallops, 1 crispy skin salmon, 1 steak, and 1 venison special. The scallops were unreal. So creamy on the inside but seared and crispy outside. All served on a delicious puree of cauliflower with romanesco and a surprisingly refreshing addition: cucumber cut to look like grapes. Amazing! Crispy skin salmon was served skin side up over a saffron buerre blanc, alongside roasted tomato and fennel, a simple Yukon gold potato, which was a little under cooked, tbh, spinach, and pesto. Such delicate flavors, it was very refined, and the combination was so nice. Steak was a very healthy portion, cooked perfectly. And last but not least, the venison two ways. OMG! The venison was cooked perfectly medium rare, sliced on top of a marsala sauce, served with a hasselback potato, venison sausage, and asparagus along with morels. I only had one bite of this, and I'm still thinking about it. Perfection. No gamey-ness. Just pure delciousness. You'd think we would be done at this point, but no. The dessert menu leaves you wanting one of each. We did 4 of the 5, and damn, now I wish we had gotten the 5th. The best creme brûlée most of us have ever had. Creamy yet set, with the most delicate crust of sugar on top which was so easy to tap through. As it should be. Lemon panna cotta with pistachio biscotti was a real lovely, light palate cleanser. The caramelized macadamia nut and vanilla bean parfait was such a delight. Beautiful to look at, even better to eat. And the tasting of chocolate was nice also. The hazelnut chocolate crunch was our favorite of that dish, so good. We had wine also, but the food was so good I barely cared to drink my wine. And that's saying something!! And when chef came up to see us at our fabulous table up top, overlooking the kitchen, we were so delighted. He's my kind of crazy for sure, and I will be returning every chance I get. Many thanks for a fine dining experience in Mammoth!

Return here in June. Another fantastic meal. I had the duck breast, my wife had the venison dinner both were fantastic. This is without a doubt the best restaurant in the area. This is my third visit, it won't be my last. BTW, the lettuce, beet, and blue cheese salad was a great opening bite. Also, if you enjoy great wines, Ian has a great wine list.

Over-hyped greatly. Undeserving Yelp five stars. Go get a pizza. Cuisine: lacked flavor; vaguely Scandinavian. - Sure there is lingonberry, game meats, and knäckelbröd, etc., but flavor profiles are under-developed. Some dishes are straight up other cuisines, (perhaps that's just to provide more diversity for the clientele.) - Smoked deer heart tasted like dried out roast beef that's been smoked. It needed more jam/sauce. - Galantine (special of the night) had good flavor. But again, erred on the dry side. - Duck was overcooked and slightly dried out. Spaetzle lacked flavor. Throw in some herbs at least for goodness sake. - Plating is dated. Atmosphere: lacking. - It is trying to be fine dining and a cosy chalet but succeeded at neither. - Worst of all, the main dining area smells like grease. If you sit at the "Chef's Counter", you'll go home smelling like a fryer. - You get to see the kitchen, but the chefs straight up ignore you. So much for the concept.

Really didn't get the atmosphere in this space. Random artwork and decor , missing a vibe and a purpose . Food was a mirror image , maybe great product , just not put together well . 2 things that drove me NUTS was cleanliness . Can't stand when waiters help chefs top off dishes with the final touch . Your hands are not clean bro . Another , please get those lighters you use to fire up off the cutting board .

4.8 stars? What an insult. This place is above and beyond the best dining in the Sierra, with a team who truly lives for this. This is more than a restaurant. Just give them a damn star already. CANNOT WAIT until they find their new space and open up, I'll be the first begging for a table

Amazing food and amazing service. Loved it.definitely worth a visit if you're looking for a great night night! Make a reservation in advance! You won't regret it.

Very classy dining. Great price point. Prestine and attentive service. Delicious plated and wonderfully tasting entree, appetizers and desserts.

Skadi is the best restaurant in Mammoth Lakes hands down. Don't be put off by its location in an industrial park across from the new town center. This wise decision by the owner to save on rent is justified by the fact the he does not need walk-ins. The small restaurant is always fully pre-booked weeks in advance. Cuisine is gourmet continental with a Nordic accent. The service is professional yet friendly. A very extensive and fairly priced wine list. While small, the two rooms comprising the restaurant are inviting with their minimalist (Nordic) Decore. This is the only Michelin star worthy restaurant in Mammoth.

Excelente!! Service was great- waiter was very kind and so was the rest of the staff. Had dinner for my moms bday here ... we had hamachi to start. Mixed greens salad and soup of the day was a Roma tomato and roasted red pepper that was to die for! For entree we had: duck breast cooked to perfection... crispy on the outside and nice and juicy tender in the middle. Venison special and NY steak was also cooked to perfection! My dad had the salmon- I didn't try it but he didn't leave a single bite and said it was great. Vanilla creamer brule and the grilled peaches with sorbet desert was great I also had a glass of Madeira desert wine that was prob the best desert wine I ever had

The food is delicious!!! We had the soup, the little gems salad, the scallops and the New York steak. All were great! For dessert we had the frozen macadamia dessert. It was beautiful! Service was outstanding. Amazing wine list. Food celebrates the ingredients and is not over-seasoned. Ambiance is not spectacular, but otherwise awesome all around! Easy parking, too!
