54750 N Circle Dr
Idyllwild, CA 92549
Once upon a time, high up a big mountain in the middle of a great forest there was a small cabin. This cabin was not your typical cabin. This cabin was somehow (against all probability) a fully functioning restaurant. How this cabin came to be a restaurant is unknown, perhaps sorcery or sheer, stubborn willpower made it so. Now small cabins don't typically hold restaurants, but that's what makes Cafe Aroma special, odd, and wonderful - it is that magic that surrounds the place. So while you gather over a meal, perhaps you remark that typically cabins do not become restaurants, and know that's why we do things a little bit differently, because truly we have limitations most restaurants do not. Gather friends & be welcome!

A friend recommended this spot, so we made reservations for our last night in town--and it turned out to be the perfect choice. I was a little hesitant when I heard there would be live music,...
