Yosemite Falls Café
Yosemite Falls Café
was started in December 2005. Manuel “Manny” Perales had
a vision and set out to see that vision fulfilled. He
created the concept and menu and offered several
investors the opportunity to help fulfill his dream. All
the men had plenty of restaurant experience and felt
that this new concept would be successful-and here we
are 5 years later with three locations in town and one
more on it’s way! Yosemite Fall’s success is seen in
their mantra—stick to the basics: hire friendly
employees, good managers, and serve quality food for a
good value.
Come join Yosemite
Fall’s Café as they prepare a delicious meal for you.
You will begin the evening learning how to make their
wonderful Beer Batter Tempura Zucchini. Next, your taste
buds will sizzle devouring the Carne Asada Penne Pasta.
You will finish the evening tasting their
‘Oh-so-delicious-you’ll swear-it’s-homemade Banana Bread
Pudding. If you haven’t eaten at Yosemite Fall’s—you’re
