Night Out at Z Grill

For our last night in Mammoth, we met up with our cousins and went out to dinner at Z Grill per their suggestion.  While the service was awful, but food was amazing. Located in the old Gomez's "A-frame" (if you know the area, you will know where I'm talking about...Gomez the Mexican restaurant)



A sort of homey style interior design - something you would expect in the mountains.  There were booths, tables and white chairs.  My expectations included a more gourmet form of a burger joint or barbecue restaurant.
Uncle Kevin's "Cali Burger" w/ potato salad - avocado, bacon, fried egg, lettuce on jalapeno/cheese bun
My kid's portion of BBQ pulled pork plate w/ side salad and sweet potato mash. Probably the best thing I have had in a long time.  The portion was perfect, price around $7.95 (I was able to make it past the 12 and under age limit), and the sweet sauce and mashed potatoes simply melted in my mouth.  There must have been a cinnamon seasoning or something of the liking to make the sweet potato mash as tasty as it was, but just think of Thanksgiving revisited.
M's Grilled Cheese w/ steak & side salad
Mom's Patty Melt (got to taste and it was quite tasty) w/ coleslaw
Aunt Katie's Soup & Salad combo - a Z salad w/ soup of the day (chili)
Overall, a decent priced meal, tasty for a day on the mountain, but wouldn't recommend their service.  Maybe it was a slow night? Who knows. If anything, I would come back just for the pulled pork and sweet potato mash.
