Seven Tents Pavilion

Stephen Lam

This place seems to be called Curry Village Dining Pavilion also. The place looks recently renovated. It used to be more traditional dining hall fares and settings. It now provides a bit more diverse dinning options on the menu, which is still quite simple. It's mostly self service except you still need to pay the cashier. There are plenty of seats in the dining area so accommodating large crowd does not seem like an issue. The food quality is ok and the price is reasonable. The dining experience will not be the highlight of the trip but at least it is not bad either.

Excellent stop for a quick meal at Curry Village.

Food was good, wide variety of options available for breakfast, dinner (didn't try lunch menu).

Came through for breakfast and dinner, October 3-5 (2025); Simple faire as last time for both mealtimes. Would have shelled out for more special dishes, but there was nothing different on Saturday compared to Friday. Food was not bad though, just simple.

Good enough for a quick meal. Better breakfast then what I had at other local places.

We go to Yosemite every year once or twice. This was our place to eat. They always had a choice of fish, chicken and beef or pork with lots of different sides of great vegetables, a dinner roll with butter. A great salad bar, the still have that. Now no fish and no sides of vegetables, no dinner roll. I don't eat any other meat except fish. I loved all of there vegetables. Now we bring our own food and cook. I loved not needing to pack so much food and having to cook. Bring back the old menu Please. Or add fish and sides of vegetables. Thank you!

Whoever hires/creates the schedule and orders the food needs to be replaced. It's going to get someone hurt. I went there and asked for non-dairy and they didn't understand the request (accidentally almost gave me the wrong thing). If you have folks with serious allergies, people could get hurt. They only had one person working the checkout (who I felt bad for) and so the line queued into the food court area. People couldn't navigate and someone accidentally tripped into a woman with a tray holding a beer bottle. Beer bottle explodes as it falls to the floor and glass shatters into people. Again, people are going to get hurt. Do better.

Food and the atmosphere are decent for the price you pay but the staff are absolutely terrible. They openly fight and bicker in front of customers and just have an overall look of just being miserable and disgruntled.

Seven Tents in Yosemite National Park is a prime example of taking advantage of captive customers. Located in the Curry Village food court, this restaurant offers a limited menu of rotisserie chicken, pasta, and salads at high prices (given the poor quality of the food). The setup is cafeteria-style – you grab a tray, pick your food, pay at the counter, and then find a seat. Utensils are a free-for-all on the wall behind the cashier. Seating is first-come, first-served, and cleanup is entirely on you. Expect leftover food and dirty dishes on tables, especially during peak hours (which, in my case, was a packed summer night at 8:30 pm). Now, onto the most disappointing part – the food itself. I opted for the white sauce pasta with vegan meatballs, a whopping $15+ for a dish that was a culinary disaster. The pasta was severely undercooked, the sauce was barely a whisper, and the vegan meatballs were dry and flavorless. They offered a red sauce pasta with regular meatballs as well, but considering this experience, I wouldn't risk it. The only saving grace, and even that's a maybe, is the free wifi – but only if you're staying at Curry Village and have the magical promotion code they neglect to share anywhere. Overall, Seven Tents is a frustrating experience. Unless you're starving and have absolutely no other options, avoid it. Go to the pizza place right outside. I'd rather wait in line for that than go back to this restaurant.

I really dislike leaving bad reviews, but I feel it’s important to share my experience. I ate breakfast here two days in a row. The food was fine, but the service was consistently unpleasant. On the first day, the man serving breakfast (wearing sunglasses) was very rude to me. When I didn’t ask in the “right” way, he actually shouted at me. The next day, the same thing happened again with a young woman serving. Both times, I felt disrespected and uncomfortable. Finally, when I paid, the cashier was also rude. He seemed patient and friendly with white customers, but not with me, which was very disappointing. Yosemite is such a beautiful and welcoming place, but unfortunately my experience at this restaurant was the opposite. I hope management addresses this, because no one should be treated this way.

Contributing to the previous review of Curry Village, I'm here to give my opinion of the on-site lunch restaurant. One of the employees unfriendlyly invited us to leave because it was 9:59 and they closed at 10:00, and there were still people ordering. Of course, the opening hours are understandable, but not the way she "invited" us to leave. The next day we went back earlier, but we were caught off guard by the same woman arguing with another family about the amount of food to serve a child, although the mother offered to pay more for a larger amount of food for her hungry son ( The woman didn’t serve more food for him ). If you plan to have breakfast here, I recommend going to the Yosemite Valley Lodge, which is cheaper and you can order from a kiosk machine without the rudeness of the staff.

I came here with my sons class, and the service was awful. Workers were rude and they were always out of stuff. The soda machine was almost always, broken or out of ice. Forks, you spoons, and knifes were also out a lot They had the same items every night(4 nights) except for one thing that changes, and repeated itself once. A cleaning worker was mad that someone left a mess, and was throwing chairs under tables. We asked why they only had one employee serving food, and they said (sometimes you have to be patients, that’s life). Food was nasty snd almost always cold. A single parfait was almost $9 and they were always out of those and fruit cups. Same food for breakfast each day. Resteraunt was not that bad itself, but tables were almost always dirty. Overpriced, my son and his friend had to share a plate of food because it was 19 dollars, but burnt and cold. Pasta was way to spicy. Gave us bagged lunches because we were going on hikes, and the chips were almost always stale, but the turkey sandwich was good. That was probably my favorite thing I ate the whole trip other than the cheesecake. Do not recommend.

borderline prison food for $40. I waited in the checkout line until my food was cold. Then they told me it’s cash only. I was short $1. I asked the guy if I could just have it as a discount for the cold food. He refused. Some lady was nice enough to offer me $1 (thank you). Toast is served with your breakfast except it’s just bread you have to wait in line to toast yourself after checking out. Yay

Absolutely disgusting food. Had to wait over an hour for pizza that gave us food poisoning. Go to the hamburger place next door.

I seldom give bad reviews but the food was terrible and expensive. And the server here was very absent-minded.

Extremely rude staff
